The role of RNA modification in hepatocellular carcinoma
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022 Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly mortal type of primary liver cancer. Abnormal epigenetic modifications are present in HCC, and RNA modification is dynamic and reversible and is a key post-transcriptional regulator.

ALKBHs-facilitated RNA modifications and de-modifications [PDF]
DNA Repair, 2016 The AlkB gene that protects E.coli against methylation damage to DNA was identified more than 3 decades ago. 20 years later, the AlkB protein was shown to catalyze repair of methylated DNA base lesions by oxidative demethylation. Two human AlkB homologs were characterized with similar DNA repair activities and seven additional human AlkB homologs were ...

Instrumental analysis of RNA modifications [PDF]
Critical Reviews in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2021 Organisms from all domains of life invest a substantial amount of energy for the introduction of RNA modifications into nearly all transcripts studied to date. Instrumental analysis of RNA can focus on the modified residues and reveal the function of these epitranscriptomic marks.
