Abstract

Pseudouridine is an abundant mRNA modification found in diverse organisms ranging from bacteria and viruses to multicellular plants and humans. New developments in pseudouridine profiling provide quantitative tools to map mRNA pseudouridylation sites. Sparse biochemical studies establish the potential for mRNA pseudouridylation to affect most stages of the mRNA life cycle from birth to death. This recent progress sets the stage for deeper investigations into the molecular and cellular functions of specific mRNA pseudouridines, including in disease.
