Recent developments in epitranscriptome spatial detection and data analysis are summarized and their progression is discussed.
The epitranscriptome, defined as RNA modifications that do not involve alterations in the nucleotide sequence, is a popular topic in the genomic sciences. Because we need massive computational techniques to identify epitranscriptomes within individual transcripts, many tools have been developed to infer epitranscriptomic sites as well as to process data sets using high-throughput sequencing. In this review, we have summarized recent developments in epitranscriptome spatial detection and data analysis and discussed their progression.
