Mechanistic insight into the pseudouridylation of RNA [PDF]
Pseudouridylation (Ψ) is a highly abundant and conserved RNA modification that is present in all three domains of life. The incorporation of Ψ can affect the stability of RNAs, modulate their interaction patterns, and regulate many other aspects of RNA ...

Transcriptome-wide analysis of pseudouridylation in Drosophila melanogaster
Pseudouridine (Psi) is one of the most frequent post-transcriptional modification of RNA. Enzymatic Psi modification occurs on rRNA, snRNA, snoRNA, tRNA, and non-coding RNA and has recently been discovered on mRNA.

DKC1: a robust prognostic factor and potential therapeutic target in multiple myeloma [PDF]
Background Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable plasma cell malignancy. Dyskerin pseudouridine synthase 1 (DKC1), a nucleolar protein, is essential for RNA modification and cellular homeostasis, yet its role in MM remains unclear.

Cytoplasmic localization of pseudouridine synthase 7 facilitates a pseudouridine-dependent enhancement of cellular stress tolerance [PDF]
Pseudouridine (Ψ) is an abundant post-transcriptional modification found across all classes of RNA. It is widely speculated that Ψ inclusion in messenger RNAs (mRNAs) might provide an avenue for cells to control gene expression post-transcriptionally ...

In human rRNA, at least 104 specific uridine residues are modified to pseudouridine. Many of these pseudouridylation sites are located within functionally important ribosomal domains and can influence ribosomal functional features.

Transcriptome-wide mapping of pseudouridines: pseudouridine synthases modify specific mRNAs in S. cerevisiae. [PDF]
We developed a novel technique, called pseudouridine site identification sequencing (PSI-seq), for the transcriptome-wide mapping of pseudouridylation sites with single-base resolution from cellular RNAs based on the induced termination of reverse ...

From Antisense RNA to RNA Modification: Therapeutic Potential of RNA-Based Technologies
Therapeutic oligonucleotides interact with a target RNA via Watson-Crick complementarity, affecting RNA-processing reactions such as mRNA degradation, pre-mRNA splicing, or mRNA translation.

Novel Variants in PUS7 Associated With Intellectual Disability and Growth Retardation: Expanding the Clinical Spectrum in 13 Patients. [PDF]
Novel variants in PUS7 associated with intellectual disability and growth retardation: expanding the clinical spectrum in 13 patients. ABSTRACT Pseudouridylation is a frequent post‐transcriptional modification resulting in uridine isomerization in 5‐ribosyluracil, also called pseudouridine. This mechanism leads to RNA stability with an increase in base‐

Guide RNA acrobatics: positioning consecutive uridines for pseudouridylation by H/ACA pseudouridylation loops with dual guide capacity [PDF]
Site-specific pseudouridylation of human ribosomal and spliceosomal RNAs is directed by H/ACA guide RNAs composed of two hairpins carrying internal pseudouridylation guide loops. The distal “antisense” sequences of the pseudouridylation loop base-pair with the target RNA to position two unpaired target nucleotides 5′-UN-3′, including the 5′ substrate U,
