Description: "This volume provides techniques on recent developments that use RNA scaffolds as molecular tools. RNA Scaffolds: Methods and Protocols guides readers through methods on various domains as molecular biology, nanotechnologies, and structural biology. Written for the Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Practical and authoritative, RNA Scaffolds: Methods and Protocols will serve as an invaluable reference for those interested in further study into this fascinating field."--
