Notice of Special Interest (NOSI): RNA Modifications in Cancer Biology

The purpose of this Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) is to stimulate research on the role of RNA modifications in the area of cancer biology. Despite the recognition that RNA modifications and editing exert substantial impact on gene expression and function, there are a lack of mechanistic insights into the dynamic regulation of RNA modifications and how their de-regulation drives cancer formation. A better understanding of the extent, diversity and crosstalk between different types of RNA modification, and the elucidation of the molecular players that read and interpret the modification code are needed to reveal the mechanisms of RNA modifications that underly cancer formation and the cancer phenotype.
