RNA structure probing reveals the structural basis of Dicer binding and cleavage

Sequencing methods such as icSHAPE were developed to probe RNA structures transcriptome-wide in cells. To probe intact RNA structures, the authors develop icSHAPE-MaP and apply to Dicer-bound substrates showing that distance measuring is important for Dicer cleavage of pre-miRNAs.
