RNA modifications and structures cooperate to guide RNA –protein interactions

Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology 18, 202 (2017). doi:10.1038/nrm.2016.163 Authors: Cole J.T. Lewis, Tao Pan & Auinash Kalsotra An emerging body of evidence indicates that post-transcriptional gene regulation relies not only on the sequence of mRNAs but also on their folding into intricate secondary structures and on the chemical modifications of the RNA bases. These features, which are highly dynamic and interdependent, exert
