sRNAs and their targets were usually discovered by bioinformatics prediction combined with experimental verification,which was hampered by the low prediction accuracy and low-throughput.Among the 2792 sequenced microbiological genomes,only about 1000 sRNAs had been found.Furthermore,target mRNAs of only 134 sRNAs had been uncovered[1].Obviously,more sRNAs and target RNAs remained to be discovered.The chemical psoralen can intercalate into RNA helices and after irradiation with 320-400 nm light,freeze (in a helical or pseudoknot form) the uridines of RNA by covalent attachment[2]if they are in close proximity[3].
