Abstract

Over the past decade, advancements in epitranscriptomics have significantly enhanced our understanding of mRNA metabolism and its role in human development and diseases. This period has witnessed breakthroughs in sequencing technologies and the identification of key proteins involved in RNA modification processes. Alongside the well-studied m6A, Ψ and m1A have emerged as key epitranscriptomic markers. Initially identified through transcriptome-wide profiling, these modifications are now recognized for their broad impact on RNA metabolism and gene expression. In this Perspective, we focus on the detections and functions of Ψ and m1A modifications in mRNA and discuss previous discrepancies and future challenges. We summarize recent advances and highlight the latest sequencing technologies for stoichiometric detection and their mechanistic investigations for functional unveiling in mRNA as the new research directions.
