RNA modifications in RNA processing and decay
My group is interested in the role of posttranscriptional RNA modifications in RNA metabolism and quality control. We study the mechanisms of noncanonical 3' terminal RNA tailing in yeast and mammalian cells. The second main topic of our research concerns the molecular mechanisms and function of adenosine methylation of coding and noncoding RNAs in mammals.
