Spliceosomal snRNA Epitranscriptomics [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) are critical components of the spliceosome that catalyze the splicing of pre-mRNA. snRNAs are each complexed with many proteins to form RNA-protein complexes, termed as small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), in the cell nucleus. snRNPs participate in pre-mRNA splicing by recognizing the critical sequence elements present

Epitranscriptomics of cancer

open access: yesWorld Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2018
The functional impact of modifications of cellular RNAs, including mRNAs, miRNAs and lncRNAs, is a field of intense study. The role of such modifications in cancer has started to be elucidated. Diverse and sometimes opposite effects of RNA modifications have been reported.

The Arabidopsis epitranscriptome

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Plant Biology, 2015
The most prevalent internal modification of plant messenger RNAs, N(6)-methyladenosine (m(6)A), was first discovered in the 1970s, then largely forgotten. However, the impact of modifications to eukaryote mRNA, collectively known as the epitranscriptome, has recently attracted renewed attention.

Cracking the epitranscriptome [PDF]

open access: yesRNA, 2016
Over 100 distinct chemical modifications can be catalyzed on RNA post-synthesis, potentially serving as a post-transcriptional regulatory layer of gene expression. This review focuses on recent advances, knowledge gaps, and challenges pertaining to N6-methyladenosine (m6A), an abundant modification of mRNA for which substantial progress has been made ...

The Dihydrouridine landscape from tRNA to mRNA: a perspective on synthesis, structural impact and function

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2022
The universal dihydrouridine (D) epitranscriptomic mark results from a reduction of uridine by the Dus family of NADPH-dependent reductases and is typically found within the eponym D-loop of tRNAs.

The non-coding epitranscriptome in cancer [PDF]

open access: yesBriefings in Functional Genomics, 2021
Abstract Post-synthesis modification of biomolecules is an efficient way of regulating and optimizing their functions. The human epitranscriptome includes a variety of more than 100 modifications known to exist in all RNA subtypes.

Lifestyle modifications: coordinating the tRNA epitranscriptome with codon bias to adapt translation during stress responses

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2018
Cells adapt to stress by altering gene expression at multiple levels. Here, we propose a new mechanism regulating stress-dependent gene expression at the level of translation, with coordinated interplay between the tRNA epitranscriptome and biased codon ...

Downregulation of m6A writer complex member METTL14 in bladder urothelial carcinoma suppresses tumor aggressiveness

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2022
N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) and its regulatory proteins have been associated with tumorigenesis in several cancer types. However, knowledge on the mechanistic network related to m6A in bladder cancer (BlCa) is rather limited, requiring further investigation
