Recent advances in dynamic m6A RNA modification
The identification of m(6)A demethylases and high-throughput sequencing analysis of methylated transcriptome corroborated m(6)A RNA epigenetic modification as a dynamic regulation process, and reignited its investigation in the past few years. Many basic concepts of cytogenetics have been revolutionized by the growing understanding of the fundamental role of m(6)A in RNA splicing, degradation a...
متن کاملNascent RNA structure modulates the transcriptional dynamics of RNA polymerases.
RNA polymerase pausing represents an important mechanism of transcriptional regulation. In this study, we use a single-molecule transcription assay to investigate the effect of template base-pair composition on pausing by RNA polymerase II and the evolutionarily distinct mitochondrial polymerase Rpo41. For both enzymes, pauses are shorter and less frequent on GC-rich templates. Significantly, i...
متن کاملArabidopsis m6A demethylase activity modulates viral infection of a plant virus and the m6A abundance in its genomic RNAs.
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is an internal, reversible nucleotide modification that constitutes an important regulatory mechanism in RNA biology. Unlike mammals and yeast, no component of the m6A cellular machinery has been described in plants at present. m6A has been identified in the genomic RNAs of diverse mammalian viruses and, additionally, viral infection was found to be modulated by the abu...
متن کاملMultiple functions of m6A RNA methylation in cancer
First identified in 1974, m6A RNA methylation, which serves as a predominant internal modification of RNA in higher eukaryotes, has gained prodigious interest in recent years. Modifications of m6A are dynamic and reversible in mammalian cells, which have been proposed as another layer of epigenetic regulation similar to DNA and histone modifications. m6A RNA methylation is involved in all stage...
متن کاملEmerging Roles of RNA Modification: m6A and U-Tail
Although more than 100 types of RNA modification have been described thus far, most of them were thought to be rare in mRNAs and in regulatory noncoding RNAs. Recent developments have unveiled that at least some of the modifications are considerably abundant and widely conserved. This Minireview summarizes the molecular machineries and biological functions of methylation (N6-methyladenosine, m(...
