Terminal transferase-dependent PCR (TDPCR) can be used after reverse transcription to analyze RNA. This method (RT-TDPCR) is able to provide in vivo information at nucleotide-level resolution, and has been used for study of ribozymes, RNA size, RNA structure, and RNA-protein interactions. A detailed protocol of RT-TDPCR is presented here with examples of its use in detecting ribozyme cleavage intermediates in yeast and a RNA transcription start site in mammalian cells.
