Abstract excerpt
Ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) contain a large number of posttranscriptionally modified nucleosides, the physiological function of which is still unclear. The great majority of modifications in eukaryotes and archaea are 2'-O-ribose methylated nucleosides and pseudouridines. The current methods to identify rRNA modifications are difficult to perform and need expensive reagents. Here we report an easy method to detect...
