Abstract excerpt
Pseudouridine (Ψ) is a post-transcriptional RNA modification that alters RNA-RNA and RNA-protein interactions that affect gene expression. Messenger RNA pseudouridylation was recently discovered as a widespread and conserved phenomenon, but the mechanisms responsible for selective, regulated pseudouridylation of specific sequences within mRNAs were unknown. Here, we have revealed mRNA targets for five...
