Isolating protein-free RNA in vitro is actually very hard. | |

| Oct 24, 2016 at 14:54 | comment | added | Konrad Rudolph | The premise of this question, that mRNA "(mostly) floats freely", is false. I don't have specific references (hence a comment, not an answer) but recent research on RNA interactions shows that mRNA is in fact rarely unbound. Under physiological conditions it's almost universally in a complex with proteins or (other) RNAs. | |
