A novel, RNA-containing splicing factor is purified on the basis of its physical interaction with a previously known subunit of the spliceosome. You sequence the RNA within the new factor, and identify a region that is perfectly complementary to a stretch of the RNA from the previously known subunit with which it interacts. You suspect that the interaction between the new factor and the subunit is mediated by hybridization between these complementary RNA sequences, but would like to be sure. How could you test this experimentally?
