Covalent modifications of RNA — mediated by RNA-modifying proteins (RMPs) — affect RNA stability and translation to proteins, and some of these RMPs have been implicated in cancer. Here, Copeland and colleagues review the current understanding of RNA modifications with a focus on mRNA methylation and assess the potential of RMPs as novel anticancer targets.
