#tRIBO-seq
Very happy to share that our work (beautifully led by @miemonti.bsky.social and #Hasan) is finally out! 😄We find that tRNAs engaged in actively translating ribosomes significantly differ from the 'total' pool available in the cell, specially upon stress! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Selective profiling of translationally active tRNAs and their dynamics under stress - Nature Methods

A new Nature Methods paper from one of our #LongTREC supervisors, @evamarianovoa.bsky.social , and colleagues introduces #tRIBO-seq. It’s a nanopore-based method that reads tRNAs bound to ribosomes while they make protein.

Happy to have played a small part by applying tRIBO-seq in mock and infected cells! @novoalab.bsky.social

Overall, tRIBO-seq provides a simple way to profile the active tRNAome, capturing abundance, modifications and fragmentation from actively translating ribosomes.

This project was co-led with Hasan Yilmaz, in collaboration between the Novoa Lab, IMMAGINA Biotech and the Soares Lab.

tRIBO-seq builds on RiboLace technology from to pull down active ribosomes.

Using ~15× less starting material, we recover comparable ribosome-associated tRNAs to polysome purification - with a much faster protocol.

Importantly, the recovered tRNAs correlate well with polysome-derived samples.

To address this, we developed tRIBO-seq alongside @immagina.bsky.social.

The idea is simple:
• capture actively translating ribosomes
• isolate their associated native tRNAs
• sequence them using nanopore

This provides a direct view of the ribosome-associated tRNA population (ribo-tRNAs).

New preprint from
@novoalab.bsky.social !

Which tRNAs are used by ribosomes during translation?

We introduce tRIBO-seq, a nanopore method to sequence ribosome-associated tRNAs and track how the active tRNA pool changes across stress conditions.
