Machida RJ, Lin YY.
- [[Kwak et al., 2013|biblio/23430654]] modified oligo-capping to create Pro-cap, a method for nuclear
run-on analysis at single-nucleotide resulution.
+ - CapSMART ([[Machida and Lin, 2014|biblio/25003736]]): non-capped RNAs are
+ dephosphorylated, rephoshporylated and a blocking linker containing
+ isoguanosines and isocytidines (so that it can not be reverse-transcribed) is
+ ligated to them. A classical SMART protocol follows. cDNAs are amplified with
+ biotinylated forward primers, so that the 5′ end can be recovered after
+ mechanical fragmentation.
