An elegant simple workflow for RNA enrichment:

Let us know the RNA sequence of interest and receive a custom ready-to-use kit:

• Custom design for any RNA molecule:
  • Target any transcript or pool of transcripts.
  • We evaluate the feasibility of capturing your target before you place an order. Request a quotation here.
  • We design the probes and prepare the kit containing all the components you need for your experiment.
• High efficiency and specificity:
  • Enrich target RNA directly from a cellular lysate by over 100.000 fold.
  • No molecular tag related biases.
  • Reproducible and consistent levels of enrichment.
  • Enrichments take place under unprecedentedly stringent conditions, unachievable with biotin based approaches.
• Simple and time-saving protocol:
  • Below 15 minutes of hands-on time.
  • The whole procedure takes less than 2 hours.
  • No additional components needed.
  • No DNase treatment or sonication of the sample required, no RNA fragmentation.
  • No need for prior isolation, pre-processing, or RNA fragmentation.

Unmatched enrichment levels:

Identify ribonucleoprotein complexes: 

The identification of the compositions of ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs) formed by a specific transcript is of great value in RNA studies. It is, however, a challenging task, and is difficult to accomplish with a classic toolbox of biochemical methods. Such studies can be performed on lysates of UV cross-linked cells with sequence-specific target capture utilizing antisense oligonucleotides. Typically systems based on biotinylated oligonucleotides complementary to the sequence of the transcript of interest in combination with streptavidin beads are employed. Proteins co-captured in such procedures can be identified by mass spectrometry.  

Directly from cellular or tissue lysates:

MagIC Beads based systems for the study of RNA-protein interactome feature exceptionally efficient hybridization based approach of sequence specific RNP captures free of the weaknesses and shortcomings of biotin-streptavidin based workflows. 

The kits consist of the target-specific MagIC Beads and sets of optimized buffers. They feature standardized cell lysis and capture conditions as well as capture probes properties, which ensure uniformly high efficiency of the system on varying RNA targets, independently of their length or secondary structures. The beads provide very high target capture efficiency and enrichment levels. 

For any custom target transcript the optimal number of probes is established based on the target length and nucleotide composition. Experimentally validated design approach is used to provide uniformly highly efficient capture probe arrays for any target. Every probe is extensively screened against potential binding to any off-targets in the transcriptome of interest to ensure superb probe specificity. 

Downstream application agnostic: 

The enrichment method is downstream application agnostic and the proteins co-captured with the target RNA can be subjected to analysis with various methods, including:  

‣ Mass spectrometry
‣ Western blotting
‣ Silver staining on a protein gel

Compared to classic biotinylated probe-based approaches, MagIC Beads provide multiple benefits: 

Additional information:

‣ Shipping condition: room temperature.
‣ Storage Temperature: 4°C.
‣ Durability: 36 months from the date of manufacture.
‣ Protocols
