Abstract

Calvin Tiengwe works on posttranscriptional gene regulation and iron homeostasis in the parasitic protozoan Trypanosoma brucei . In this mSphere of Influence article, he reflects on how the paper “Comprehensive identification of RNA-protein interactions in any organism using orthogonal organic phase separation (OOPS)” by Queiroz et al. (Nat Biotechnol 37:169–178, 2019, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41587-018-0001-2 ) influenced his research by providing a tool to capture RNA-protein complexes on a global scale using acid guanidinium thiocyanate-phenol-chloroform (AGPC), an old method hitherto applied for RNA, DNA, or protein purification.
