A quantitative model predicts how m6A reshapes the kinetic landscape of nucleic acid hybridization and conformational transitions

m6A RNA post-transcriptional modification changes RNA hybridization kinetics. Here the authors show that the methylamino group can adopt syn-conformation pairing with uridine with a mismatch-like conformation in RNA duplex. They also develop a quantitative model that predicts how m6A affects the kin...
