Abstract
The invention provides methods and compositions for selectively isolating total bacterial mRNA. The general method comprises contacting a bacterial lysate comprising total bacterial mRNA and nonisolated bacterial polysomes with an exogenous enzyme under conditions wherein the enzyme selectively modifies the mRNA to form modified mRNA, and isolating the modified mRNA. In particular embodiments, the enzyme is selected from a poly(A) polymerase, a RNA ligase and a terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase. Depending on the enzyme, the modified mRNA may have any of a variety of modifications, such as a 3′ tail, particularly a poly(A) tail, a specific sequence tag, a detectably labeled nucleotide, etc.
