A News Feature looks at the history of the field, from the first discoveries of RNA modifications in the 1960s to recent transcriptome-wide methods. A Review describes the strengths and weaknesses of these methods, and a Commentary discusses the functional importance of a particular modification in stem cells. Our choice of eight methods to watch highlights areas we think will be influential in 2017 and beyond. | |
