Long undecoded transcript isoform (LUTI) detection in meiotic budding yeast by direct RNA and transcript leader sequencing
More about Open Access at the CrickAbstract
LUTIs (Long Undecoded Transcript Isoforms) are 5′-extended and poorly translated mRNAs that can downregulate transcription from promoters more proximal to a gene’s coding sequence (CDS). In this protocol, polyA RNA is extracted from budding yeast cells undergoing highly synchronized meiosis. Using a combination of long-read direct RNA sequencing and transcript leader sequencing (TL-seq), meiosis-specific LUTIs are systematically identified. Following identification, TL-seq is used to quantify the abundance of both LUTI and the more canonical gene-proximal (PROX) transcripts.
