Résumé

The isolation of G-quadruplexes (G4s) from human cells using specific molecular tools constitutes an invaluable step forward in uncovering the biology of these higher-order DNA and RNA structures. Here, we present an improved version of the G4-RNA precipitation (G4RP) protocol developed to identify RNA G4s from human cancer cells. We describe steps for cell treatment and lysis, chemoprecipitation of G4s using TASQ tools, go/no-go steps, and quantitative reverse-transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) quantification and analysis. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Mitteaux et al..
