m6A modification is incorporated into bacterial mRNA without specific functional benefit Abstract. N6-Methyladenosine (m6A), the most abundant modification in eukaryotic messenger RNAs (mRNAs), has also been found at a low level in bacterial mR

Delighted to share our newest publication - beautiful collaboration with Ya-Ming Hou’s lab. If you wonder whether bacterial mRNAs contain m6A (yes they do) and whether it matters (does not seem to) look here 👇🏻
