N4-acetylcytidine regulates the replication and pathogenicity of enterovirus 71

Abstract excerpt

Chemical modifications are important for RNA function and metabolism. N4-acetylcytidine (ac4C) is critical for the translation and stability of mRNA. Although ac4C is found in RNA viruses, the detailed mechanisms through which ac4C affects viral replication are unclear. Here, we reported that the 5' untranslated region of the enterovirus 71 (EV71) genome was ac4C modified by the host acetyltransferase NAT10....
