NSUN3-mediated mitochondrial tRNA 5-formylcytidine modification is essential for embryonic development and respiratory complexes in mice
A mitochondrial tRNA modification enzyme, NSUN3, is found to be essential for embryonic development in mice, with whole-body knockout causing embryonic lethality and heart-specific Nsun3 knockout leading to heart aberration in older mice.
