Schematic illustration of biochemical identification of miRNA targets using RIP-Chip. miRNPs are co-IPed with anti-AGO (2A8) antibodies (Nelson et al. 2007) bound to protein G-agarose beads. RNAs that associated with AGO protein are processed for Affymetrix Gene 1.0 ST microarrays and this high-throughput assay can resolve miRNA targets.
