摘要: Chemical modifications to messenger RNA are increasingly recognized as a critical regulatory layer in the flow of genetic information, but quantitative tools to monitor RNA modifications in a whole-transcriptome and site-specific manner are lacking. Here we describe a versatile platform for directed evolution that rapidly selects for reverse transcriptases that install mutations at sites of a given type of RNA modification during reverse transcription, allowing for site-specific identification of the modification. To develop …
