FRAG-Seq

FRAG-Seq

Fragmentation sequencing (FRAG-Seq) is a method for probing RNA structure. In this method, RNA is digested using nuclease P1, followed by reverse transcription. Deep sequencing of the cDNA provides high-resolution single-stranded reads, which can be used to determine the structure of RNA by mapping P1 endonuclease digestion sites.
