RNA-stable isotope probing: From carbon flow within key microbiota to targeted transcriptomes.
Curr. Opin. Biotechnol. 41, 83-89 (2016)
Stable isotope probing of RNA has enthused researchers right from its first introduction in 2002. The concept of a labelling-based detection of process-targeted microbes independent of cellular replication or growth has allowed for a much more direct handle on functionally relevant microbiota than by labelling of other biomarkers. This has led to a widespread application of the technology, and breakthroughs in our understanding of carbon flow in natural microbiomes, autotrophic and heterotrophic physiologies, microbial food webs, host-microbe interactions and environmental biotechnology. Recent studies detecting labelled mRNA demonstrate that RNA-SIP is not limited to the analysis of rRNA, but is currently developing towards an approach for accessing targeted transcriptomes. In combination with next-generation sequencing and other methodological advances, RNA-SIP will continue to deliver invaluable insights into the functioning of microbial communities.
