The regulation of gene expression in response to environmental stress is a key process that ensures cellular survival across all three domains of life. The adjustment of protein synthesis appears to be one of the initial steps toward the response and adaptation to stress. Ribosome-associated non-coding RNAs (rancRNAs) efficiently regulate translation as an immediate response to stress by directly targeting the ribosome and fine-tuning translation. tRNA-derived RNAs (tDRs) are part of the RNA species that constitute the functionally diverse class of rancRNAs. Here we report a new experimental approach for creating deep sequencing libraries of ribosome-associated small RNAs in yeast utilizing state-of-the-art technologies. Our new strategy is supported by validating previously identified rancRNAs and discovering novel tDRs interacting with the Saccharomyces cerevisiae ribosome.
