Pre-print #2 from the lab this year! We took a closer look at the m1A methyltransferase TRMT61B (a super interesting enzyme that targets multiple types of RNA), and explored location-dependent effects of TRMT61B-mediated m1A on mRNA translation. Led by very talented grad student, Dorthy Fang!

Thrilled to share a new preprint from the lab! We investigated how m6A regulates the transcriptome in chemoresistant glioblastoma through unexpected mechanisms, and the potential therapeutic applications of this discovery. Check out the preprint here ⬇️ www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

N6-methyladenosine promotes temozolomide resistance through non-canonical regulation of mRNA stability in glioblastoma cells

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a critical regulator of mRNA processing and function, impacting nearly every step of the mRNA lifecycle. Changes in m6A status have been implicated in many different types ...
