Three distinct 3-methylcytidine (m3C) methyltransferases modify tRNA and mRNA in mice and humans by Xu, Luang, Liu, Xinyu, Sheng, Na, Oo, Kyaw Soe, Liang, Junxin, Chionh, Yok Hian, Xu, Juan, Ye, Fuzhou, Gao, Yong-Gui, Dedon, Peter C., Fu, Xin-Yuan

“…METTL8, however, modified only mRNA, as determined by biochemical and genetic analyses in Mettl8 null-mutant mice and two human METTL8 mutant cell lines. Our findings provide the first evidence of the existence of m3C modification in mRNA, and the discovery of METTL8 as an mRNA m3C writer enzyme opens the door to future studies of other m3C epitranscriptomic reader and eraser functions.…”

Inflammation and colorectal cancer: elucidation of the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which interleukin 22 contributes to the development and progression of colorectal cancer by McCuaig, S

“…Using a panel of CRC cell lines and primary human organoids, we confirmed that this prognostic association is due to a functional interaction between IL-22 and mutant KRAS by observing that IL-22 enhances chemoresistance, 3-dimensional clonogenicity, and proliferation specifically in CRC cells with both high IL-22 receptor levels and <em>KRAS</em> mutations. …”

Citizenship and the politics of poverty definition during the segregation, apartheid and democratic eras in South Africa: 1910-2010 by Magasela, W
