Resistance to chemotherapy is a serious issue that can be influenced by RNA epigenetics and chromatin structure. Here, the authors show in leukaemia cells that RNA 5-methylcytosine (RNA:m5C) and RNA:m5C methyltransferases (RCMTs) mediate chromatin structures that can modulate 5-Azacitidine response and resistance.
