A tale of non-canonical tails: gene regulation by post-transcriptional RNA tailing

S Yu, VN Kim - Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2020 - nature.com
RNA tailing, or the addition of non-templated nucleotides to the 3′ end of RNA, is the most
frequent and conserved type of RNA modification. The addition of tails and their composition …
