The biological function of demethylase ALKBH1 and its role in human diseases

open access: yesHeliyon
AlkB homolog 1 (ALKBH1) is a member of the AlkB family of dioxygenases that are dependent on Fe(II) and α-ketoglutarate. Mounting evidence demonstrates that ALKBH1 exhibits enzymatic activity against various substrates, including N6-methyladenosine (m6A),

Development and validation of monoclonal antibodies against N6-methyladenosine for the detection of RNA modifications.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
RNA contains various chemical modifications, among which N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent modified nucleotide in eukaryotic mRNA. Emerging evidence suggests that m6A plays an important role in regulating a variety of cellular functions by ...

Dealing with an Unconventional Genetic Code in Mitochondria: The Biogenesis and Pathogenic Defects of the 5‐Formylcytosine Modification in Mitochondrial tRNA$^{Met}$ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Human mitochondria contain their own genome, which uses an unconventional genetic code. In addition to the standard AUG methionine codon, the single mitochondrial tRNA Methionine (mt‐tRNA$^{Met}$) also recognises AUA during translation initiation and ...

Base-Resolution Sequencing Methods for Whole-Transcriptome Quantification of mRNA Modifications [PDF]

open access: yes
RNA molecules are not merely a combination of four bases of A, C, G, and U. Chemical modifications occur in almost all RNA species and play diverse roles in gene expression regulation. The abundant cellular RNAs, such as ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and transfer
