mtDNA eQTLs and the m1A 16S rRNA modification explain mtDNA tissue-specific gene expression pattern in humans [PDF]
Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) are instrumental in genome-wide identification of regulatory elements, yet were overlooked in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). By analyzing 5079 RNA-seq samples from 23 tissues we identified association of ancient mtDNA SNPs (haplogroups T2, L2, J2 and V) and recurrent SNPs (mtDNA positions 263, 750, 1438 and ...

Research progress on mRNA methylation and diseases [PDF]
mRNA methylation modification, including N6-methyladenosine (m6A), N5-methylcytidine (m5C) and N1-methyladenosine (m1A), etc., represents more than 60% of all mRNA modifications and varies distribution on mRNA.

Updates on intratumoral therapies in melanoma
Abstract Intratumoral therapies provide an opportunity for novel strategies in the management of advanced melanoma. These approaches deliver concentrated doses of therapeutic immune agents directly into individual tumor(s), achieving local tumor control and induction of systemic antitumor immune responses while minimizing the risk of immune‐related ...

Limited antibody specificity compromises epitranscriptomic analyses
A controversial discussion on the occurrence of the RNA modification m1A in mRNA takes a new turn, as an antibody with a central role in modification mapping was shown to also bind mRNA cap structures.

Engineering Bisubstrates to Target m6Am RNA Methyltransferases: Synthesis and Computational Studies
Use of the convertible nucleoside approach to synthesize m6Am RNA methyltransferase bisubstrates. This methodology allows for the introduction of modifications on the SAM analog moiety and the RNA substrate part, including the introduction of a cap analog by click chemistry.

Epitranscriptomics is the study of modifications of RNA molecules by small molecular residues, such as the methyl (-CH3) group. These modifications are inheritable and reversible. A specific group of enzymes called “writers” introduces the change to the RNA; “erasers” delete it, while “readers” stimulate a downstream effect.

The entire chemical modification repertoire of yeast ribosomal RNAs and the enzymes responsible for it have recently been identified. Nonetheless, in most cases the precise roles played by these chemical modifications in ribosome structure, function and ...

Mitochondrial 16S rRNA Is Methylated by tRNA Methyltransferase TRMT61B in All Vertebrates.
The mitochondrial ribosome, which translates all mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)-encoded proteins, should be tightly regulated pre- and post-transcriptionally.

Epigenetic modifications serve as crucial molecular switches for pathological fibrosis; howbeit the role of m1A in this condition remains enigmatic. Herein, it is found that ALKBH3 exerts a pro‐fibrotic effect in pathological skin fibrosis by reshaping ...
