Small but strong: Pivotal roles and potential applications of snoRNAs in hematopoietic malignancies

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) belong to a family of noncoding RNAs that are 60-300 nucleotides in length, and they are classified into two classes according to their structure and function: C/D box snoRNAs, playing an essential role in 2’-O-methylation ...

Alterations of ribosomal RNA pseudouridylation in human breast cancer

open access: yesNAR Cancer, 2023
Abstract RNA modifications are key regulatory factors for several biological and pathological processes. They are abundantly represented on ribosomal RNA (rRNA), where they contribute to regulate ribosomal function in mRNA translation. Altered RNA modification pathways have been linked to tumorigenesis as well as to other human diseases.

N‐Terminal Variant p.Ala2Val in X‐Linked Dyskeratosis Congenita Gene (DKC1) Disrupts Its Post‐Translational Modification and Nucleolar Localization

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Major symptoms of dyskeratosis congenita. Predicted nuclear localization site at N‐terminus of DKC1 protein. Comparison of nuclear localization for DKC1 showing normal localization for wild‐type versus disruption of localization for p.Ala2Val. ABSTRACT Background Dyskeratosis congenita (DKC) is typically characterized by the triad of abnormal cutaneous

High‐throughput Profiling of Pseudouridines in Microbiome‐derived Bacterial RNA

open access: yesCurrent Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Pseudouridine (Ψ) is a widespread RNA modification that influences RNA stability, structure, and translation. However, its role in bacterial mRNA, particularly within complex microbiomes, remains poorly defined. Here, we describe a bisulfite‐based sequencing workflow coupled with a scalable computational pipeline for base‐resolution ...

Converting nonsense codons into sense codons by targeted pseudouridylation [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2011
All three translation termination codons, or nonsense codons, contain a uridine residue at the first position of the codon. Here, we demonstrate that pseudouridylation (conversion of uridine into pseudouridine (Ψ), ref. 4) of nonsense codons suppresses translation termination both in vitro and in vivo.

RNA Modifications in Tumor Microenvironment: A New Dimension for Cancer Treatment

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2026.
Tumor initiation and progression depend on a supportive and highly heterogeneous tumor microenvironment (TME). RNA modifications regulate signaling pathways and cytokine networks that shape TME dynamics, facilitating interactions between cancer cells and noncancerous stromal cells, and ultimately promoting immune evasion and tumor progression ...

Mitochondrial tRNA pseudouridylation governs erythropoiesis

open access: yesBlood
Abstract Pseudouridine is the most prevalent RNA modification, and its aberrant function is implicated in various human diseases. However, the specific impact of pseudouridylation on hematopoiesis remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated the role of transfer RNA (tRNA) pseudouridylation in erythropoiesis and

m5C‐Modified tRF3b‐CysGCA‐23 Suppresses Bladder Cancer Malignancy by Repressing H3K18 Lactylation via Stabilizing RBM4

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
In this study, we identified an NSUN6‐dependent m5C‐modified tsRNA, m5C‐tRF3b CysGCA‐23 (mtRC), that is downregulated in BC and inversely correlated with disease progression. Mechanistically, mtRC suppresses BC malignancy by stabilizing RBM4, attenuating glycolysis, and thereby limiting H3K18 lactylation–mediated activation of IL1RAP and VASH2 ...

A homozygous synonymous NOP58 variant causes a neurodevelopmental disorder by impairing maturation of pre-ribosomal RNAs

open access: yesHGG Advances
Summary: Ribosomes are ribonucleoproteins that are responsible for protein synthesis. They consist of ribosomal proteins and ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs). Pre-rRNAs are co-transcriptionally processed and chemically modified.
