Supplementary Table 1. RIDome compared to other RNA-centric methods for the identification of RNA-protein interactions Points of strength vs in vitro RNA affinity capture methods 1-4 vs in vivo purification of endogenous RNPs 5-8 RIDome identifies the RNA-binding domains directly involved in the interaction The ORF cDNA clone is immediately available after selection for downstream validation purposes A main challenge of MS-based studies is that proteins, unlike DNA or RNA, cannot be amplified. This puts a practical constraint on the minimum material required for purification schemes. Less expressed RBPs require more starting and the more likely background from abundant nonspecific RNPs is to interfere with the real signal; in RIDome, the relative abundancy of RNA-binding proteins in the library is normalized, thus each RBP should be equally represented The ORF library virtually represents the whole RBPome RNA-protein crosslinking not required Points of weakness vs in vitro vs in vivo RNA affinity capture methods 1-4 purification of endogenous RNPs 5-8 RIDome is not suitable to detect interactions when post-translational modifications are involved RIDome cannot be employed to study RNA-protein interactions at specific cell conditions (e.g. ageing, stress, differentiation) Filtered ORF libraries are not commercially available RIDome probes interactions in vitro, and therefore validation of the results in cells is required to establish the in vivo relevance of the interaction. 1.
