Epitranscriptomics mA analyses reveal distinct mA marks under tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α)-induced apoptotic conditions in HeLa cells.

Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is a ligand that induces both intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways in HeLa cells by modulating complex gene regulatory mechanisms. However, the full spectrum of TNF-α-modulated epitranscriptomic mA marks is unknown. We employed a genomewide approach to examine the extent of mA RNA modifications under TNF-α-modulated apoptotic conditions in HeLa cells.
