    Abstract Gene expression regulation is a critical process throughout the body, especially in the nervous system. One mechanism by which biological systems regulate gene expression is via enzyme-mediated RNA modifications, also known as epitranscriptomic regulation. RNA modifications, which have been found on nearly all RNA species across all domains of life, are chemically diverse covalent modifications of RNA nucleotides and represent a robust and rapid mechanism for the regulation of gene expression. Although numerous studies have been conducted regarding the impact that single modifications in single RNA molecules have on gene expression, emerging evidence highlights potential crosstalk between and coordination of modifications across RNA species. These potential coordination axes of RNA modifications have emerged as a new direction in the field of epitranscriptomic research. In this review, we will highlight several examples of gene regulation via RNA modification in the nervous system, followed by a summary of the current state of the field of RNA modification coordination axes. In doing so, we aim to inspire the field to gain a deeper understanding of the roles of RNA modifications and coordination of these modifications in the nervous system.

    Abstract The study of RNA chemical modifications is currently one of the most rapid-growing fields. Many types of RNA modifications in diverse RNA species have been shown to play versatile roles in a wide array of cellular processes. These modifications are installed and erased by writer and eraser enzymes, respectively. Additionally, RNA chemical modifications have downstream biological effects through either influencing changes in the chemistry or structure of RNA molecules or through recognition of the modification; these functions are primarily executed by the modification reader proteins. Reader proteins may bind to the modification site and cause a downstream signal cascade. One of the essential tools for studying erasers, writers, and readers is cross-linking immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (CLIP-seq). This method can detect the sites on endogenous RNAs bound by RNA-binding proteins or RNA modifying enzymes. Essentially, this strategy allows for snapshots of the epitranscriptome and molecular events occurring within the cell. In this article, we go through in detail the various steps involved in CLIP-seq.

    Abstract Enzyme-mediated chemical modifications of nucleic acids are indispensable regulators of gene expression. Our understanding of the biochemistry and biological significance of these modifications has largely been driven by an ever-evolving landscape of technologies that enable accurate detection, mapping, and manipulation of these marks. Here we provide a summary of recent technical advances in the study of nucleic acid modifications with a focus on techniques that allow accurate detection and mapping of these modifications. For each modification discussed (N⁶-methyladenosine, 5-methylcytidine, inosine, pseudouridine, and N⁴-acetylcytidine), we begin by introducing the “gold standard” technique for its mapping and detection, followed by a discussion of techniques developed to address any shortcomings of the gold standard. By highlighting the commonalities and differences of these techniques, we hope to provide a perspective on the current state of the field and to lay out a guideline for development of future technologies.

    Abstract Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is involved in translation and transcription, which are the mechanisms in which cells express genes (Alberts et al., 2002). The three classes of RNA discussed are transfer RNA (tRNA), messenger RNA (mRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). mRNA is the transcript encoded from DNA, rRNA is associated with ribosomes, and tRNA is associated with amino acids and is used to read mRNA transcripts to make proteins (Lodish, Berk, Zipursky, et al., 2000). Interestingly, the function of tRNA, rRNA, and mRNA can be significantly altered by chemical modifications at the co-transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels, and there are over 171 of these modifications identified thus far (Boccaletto et al., 2018; Modomics-Modified bases, 2017). Several of these modifications are linked to diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and neurological disorders. In this review, we will introduce a few RNA modifications with biological functions and how dysregulation of these RNA modifications is linked to human disease.
