Analysis of m6A RNA methylation in Caenorhabditis elegans
Erdem Sendinc, David Valle‐García, Alan Jiao, Yang Shi
Abstract
One of the most abundant RNA modifications is N 6 -methyladenosine (m6A), which is present in RNA from all forms of life, including viruses. This modification has been detected in many types of RNAs, such as mRNA, ribosomal RNA, long non-coding RNAs, small nuclear RNAs, and microRNAs. Diverse sets of proteins have been characterized that methylate, demethylate, and specifically bind to this modification in different organisms.
