Abstract Target validation and identification of binding sites are keys to the development bioactive small molecules that target RNA. Herein, we describe optimized protocols profile molecule–RNA interactions define in RNAs using covalent chemistry. Various reactive modules appended an RNA-binding molecule were studied for cross-linking RNA target. Electrophilic modules, whether N-chloroethyl aniline or diazirine, have profiles consistent with induced proximity; however, probes more specific...
Background and Hypothesis: Lead (Pb) was phased out of paint gasoline over 40 years ago due to neurotoxicity in humans, but has persisted soils poses a legacy threat many. The Indianapolis 46218 zip code had >10% children exhibiting Pb poisoning. This historically high soil levels, is undergoing redevelopment. We hypothesize that redevelopment will act re-expose new populations people the present area. Experimental Design or Project Methods: sampled 5 parks 7 playgrounds. Stratified...
