Expanding the epitranscriptome: Dihydrouridine in mRNA

Nucleotide modifications can markedly influence mRNA processing and metabolism. New studies, one in PLOS Biology, show that approximately 130 yeast mRNAs contain dihydrouridine, a derivative of uridine. Functional studies show that dihydrouridine, in some cases, can affect mRNA splicing.
