1M7 is a reagent for RNA SHAPE-MaP experiments that enables analysis of RNA secondary structures at single nucleotide resolution in<70 seconds. SHAPE chemistry performed with 1M7 accurately reports the known structure of the RNase P specificity domain under native conditions. 1M7 reactivity detects nucleotides constrained both by base pairing and by idiosyncratic, noncanonical tertiary interactions. SHAPE chemistry enables very precise analysis of the differences between two structures, such as Mg2+-dependent tertiary interactions. 1M7 is easily handled in the laboratory and enables analysis of large RNA structures at single nucleotide resolution in less than 70 s.

Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | Selective 2‘-hydroxyl acylation analyzed by primer extension (SHAPE) chemistry allows local nucleotide flexibility to be quantitatively assessed at single nucleotide resolution in any RNA. SHAPE chemistry exploits structure-based gating of the nucleophilic reactivity of the ribose 2‘-hydroxyl group by the extent to which a nucleotide is constrained or flexible. SHAPE chemistry was developed using N-methylisatoic anhydride (NMIA), which is only moderately electrophilic and requires tens of minutes to form ribose 2‘-O-adducts. Here, we design and evaluate a significantly more useful, fast-acting, reagent for SHAPE chemistry. Introduction of a nitro group para to the reactive carbonyl to form 1-methyl-7-nitroisatoic anhydride (1M7) yields a reagent that both reacts significantly more rapidly with RNA to form 2‘-O-adducts and is also more labile toward advantageous, self-limiting, hydrolysis. With 1M7, the single nucleotide resolution interrogation of the RNA structure is complete in 70 s. SHAPE analysis performed with 1M7 accurately reports the secondary and tertiary structure of the RNase P specificity domain and allows the secondary structure of this RNA to be predicted with up to 91% accuracy [1]. |
| Enzyme Assay | Many biological processes are RNA-mediated, but higher-order structures for most RNAs are unknown, which makes it difficult to understand how RNA structure governs function. Here we describe selective 2'-hydroxyl acylation analyzed by primer extension and mutational profiling (SHAPE-MaP) that makes possible de novo and large-scale identification of RNA functional motifs. Sites of 2'-hydroxyl acylation by SHAPE are encoded as noncomplementary nucleotides during cDNA synthesis, as measured by massively parallel sequencing. SHAPE-MaP-guided modeling identified greater than 90% of accepted base pairs in complex RNAs of known structure, and we used it to define a new model for the HIV-1 RNA genome. The HIV-1 model contains all known structured motifs and previously unknown elements, including experimentally validated pseudoknots. SHAPE-MaP yields accurate and high-resolution secondary-structure models, enables analysis of low-abundance RNAs, disentangles sequence polymorphisms in single experiments and will ultimately democratize RNA-structure analysis [2]. |
| Cell Assay | SHAPE-MaP is unique among RNA structure probing strategies in that it both measures flexibility at single-nucleotide resolution and quantifies the uncertainties in these measurements. We report a straightforward analytical framework that incorporates these uncertainties to allow detection of RNA structural differences between any two states, and we use it here to detect RNA-protein interactions in healthy mouse trophoblast stem cells. We validate this approach by analysis of three model cytoplasmic and nuclear ribonucleoprotein complexes, in 2 min in-cell probing experiments. In contrast, data produced by alternative in-cell SHAPE probing methods correlate poorly (r = 0.2) with those generated by SHAPE-MaP and do not yield accurate signals for RNA-protein interactions. We then examine RNA-protein and RNA-substrate interactions in the RNase MRP complex and, by comparing in-cell interaction sites with disease-associated mutations, characterize these noncoding mutations in terms of molecular phenotype. Together, these results reveal that SHAPE-MaP can define true interaction sites and infer RNA functions under native cellular conditions with limited preexisting knowledge of the proteins or RNAs involved.[3] |
