报告摘要:
Modified nucleotides, especially those related to epigenetic or epitranscriptomic functions, provide critical regulatory information beyond their sequence and also define cell status in higher organisms. The discovery of these modified nucleotides has triggered an explosion of new information in the fields of DNA/RNA epigenetics. This rapid research progress has benefited significantly from timely developments of high-throughput sequencing technologies that enable identifications of these nucleotide modifications in the whole genome or transcriptome. In my laboratory, we utilize selective chemical labeling to develop high-resolution sequencing methods for these modified nucleotides; in particular, we have developed several technologies for the genome/transcriptome-wide sequencing of 5-formylcytosine in DNA (5fC) and pseudouridine and 1-methyladenosine in RNA (Ψ and m1A), respectively; such chemical labeling-enabled sequencing technologies will allow future functional studies of these modified nucleotides.
