Measurement of mRNA translational efficiency has heavily relied on quantifying the amount of polysome-associated RNAs which would not always reflect the efficient translation. To address this, we developed RAFTER, which combined RNA editing enzyme with translation releasing factor to selectively label successfully translated RNAs. The translational efficiency estimated based on RAFTER correlated well with that by Ribo-seq and Polysome-seq, but with greatly simplified workflow, which enables it for single-cell analysis.
