RNA Pseudouridine Modification in Plants.

Pseudouridine is one of the well-known chemical modifications in various RNA species. Current advances to detect pseudouridine show that pseudouridine landscape is dynamic and affects multiple cellular processes. Although our understanding of this post-transcriptional modification mainly depends on yeast and human models, the recent findings provide strong evidence for the critical role of pseudouridine in plants. Here, we reviewed the current knowledge of pseudouridine in plant RNAs, including its synthesis, degradation, regulatory mechanisms, and functions. Moreover, we proposed future areas of research on pseudouridine modification in plants.
