Single-Molecule Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (smFISH) for RNA Localization Relative to a DNA Locus in Bacteria
摘要
When studying the localization of RNA within a cell, it is important to probe RNA relative to a subcellular landmark, such as a gene locus (transcription site). In this chapter, we describe a single-molecule fluorescence in situ hybridization (smFISH) protocol for labeling target RNAs and their DNA loci in bacteria. This is a versatile protocol applicable to various genes and species, providing valuable insights into RNA localization in bacterial cells.
