Over 100 types of chemical modifications have been identified in protein-coding and noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). However, the prevalence, regulation, and function of diverse RNA modifications remain largely unknown. Researchers from the South China University of Technology describe how to annotate, visualize, ...
