The Mysterious World of Non-Canonical Caps – What We Know and Why We Need New Sequencing Techniques
It was long believed that viral and eukaryotic mRNA molecules are capped at their 5′ end solely by the N7-methylguanosine cap, which regulates various aspects of the RNA life cycle, from its biogenesis to its decay. However, the recent discovery of a variety of non-canonical RNA caps derived from metabolites and cofactors — such as NAD, FAD, CoA, UDP-glucose, UDP−N-acetylglucosamine, and dinucleoside polyphosphates — has expanded the known repertoire of RNA modifications. These non-canonical caps are found across all domains of life and can impact multiple aspects of RNA metabolism, including stability, translation initiation, and cellular stress responses. The study of these modifications has been facilitated by sophisticated methodologies such as liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, which have unveiled their presence in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. The identification of these novel RNA caps highlights the need for advanced sequencing techniques to characterize the specific RNA types bearing these modifications and understand their roles in cellular processes. Unravelling the biological role of non-canonical RNA caps will provide insights into their contributions to gene expression, cellular adaptation, and evolutionary diversity. This review emphasizes the importance of these technological advancements in uncovering the complete spectrum of RNA modifications and their implications for living systems.
