Spliceosomal proteins direct RNA methylation to modulate gene expression and silence retrotransposons - Nature Communications
RNA modifications help determine how RNAs are processed and regulated. Here, the authors identify a pathway in fission yeast in which Tgs1-mediated RNA capping recruits RNAi machinery to target crypti...
