  • Decoding the landscape of RNA modifications from transcriptome sequencing data

    RMBase (RNA Modification Base) is a RNA modification database and designed for decoding the landscape of RNA modifications (>100 different RNA modification types) identified from 404 high-throughput RNA sequencing data (Pseudo-seq, Ψ-seq, CeU-seq, Aza-IP, MeRIP-seq, m6A-seq, miCLIP, m6A-CLIP, RiboMeth-seq).

    It contains ~124200 N6-Methyladenosines (m6A), ~9500 pseudouridine (Ψ) modifications, ~1000 5-methylcytosine (m5C) modifications, ~1210 2′-O-methylations (2′-O-Me) and ~3130 other types of RNA modifications.

    RMBase demonstrated thousands of RNA modifications located within regulatory RNAs (e.g. mRNAs, lncRNAs, miRNAs, pseudogenes, circRNAs, snoRNAs etc.), miRNA target sites and disease-related SNPs.

    This platform will greatly help biologists to explore the prevalence, mechanism and function of various RNA modifications and link them with human cancers and other diseases.

    RMBase is freely available at http://rna.sysu.edu.cn/rmbase/.

    RMBase paper is available at http://nar.oxfordjournals.org/content/44/D1/D259

    101,780 novel m6A sites from 4 studies (m6A-CLIP, m6A-Seq technologies) have been added into RMBase.

      recently, one Nature paper and one Nature Chemical biology paper have identified dynamic N1-methyladenosine (m1A) methylome in the message RNAs (mRNAs) using newly developed sequencing approaches. these modifications indicate a functional role for m1A in promoting translation of methylated mRNA.

        relationships between RNA-Binding Proteins and RNA modificaitons

        millions of relationships between RNA-Binding Protein (RBP) binding regions and RNA modifications have been added into RMBase. We revealed that RNA modifications may influence the function of RBPs or the RBPs may catalyze the RNA modification.

        A novel web-page modRBP has been added.

                Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
                by seqadmin


                Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
