The importance of m6A topology in chicken embryo mRNA: a precise mapping of m6A at the conserved chicken β-actin zipcode (2023)
Journal Article
Baron, F., Zhang, M., Archer, N., Bellows, E., Knight, H. M., Welham, S., …Bodi, Z. (2023). The importance of m6A topology in chicken embryo mRNA: a precise mapping of m6A at the conserved chicken β-actin zipcode. RNA, 29(6), 777-789. https://doi.org/10.1261/rna.079615.123

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) in mRNA regulates almost every stage in the mRNA life cycle, and the development of methodologies for the high-throughput detection of methylated sites in mRNA using m6A-specific methylated RNA immunoprecipitation with next-g...

Mapping the interaction between eukaryotic initiation factor 4A (eIF4A) and the inhibitor hippuristanol using carbene footprinting and mass spectrometry (2021)
Journal Article
Lloyd, J. R., Hogan, A., Paschalis, V., Bellamy-Carter, J., Bottley, A., Seymour, G. B., …Oldham, N. J. (2021). Mapping the interaction between eukaryotic initiation factor 4A (eIF4A) and the inhibitor hippuristanol using carbene footprinting and mass spectrometry. Proteomics, 21(21-22), Article 2000288. https://doi.org/10.1002/pmic.202000288

Protein-ligand interactions are central to protein activity and cell functionality. Improved knowledge of these relationships greatly benefits our understanding of key biological processes and aids in rational drug design towards the treatment of cli...

Accessing low-oxidation state taxanes: is taxadiene-4(5)-epoxide on the taxol biosynthetic pathway? (2016)
Journal Article
Barton, N. A., Marsh, B. J., Lewis, W., Narraidoo, N., Seymour, G. B., Fray, R. G., & Hayes, C. J. (in press). Accessing low-oxidation state taxanes: is taxadiene-4(5)-epoxide on the taxol biosynthetic pathway?. Chemical Science, 7(5), https://doi.org/10.1039/c5sc03463a

We have shown for the first time that taxadiene (3) can be epoxidised in a regio- and diastereoselective manner to provide taxadiene-4(5)-epoxide (12) as a single diastereoisomer, and that this epoxide can be rearranged to give taxa-4(20),11(12)-dien...

A novel synthesis and detection method for cap-associated adenosine modifications in mouse mRNA (2011)
Journal Article
Kruse, S., Zhong, S., Bodi, Z., Button, J., Alcocer, M. J., Hayes, C. J., & Fray, R. (2011). A novel synthesis and detection method for cap-associated adenosine modifications in mouse mRNA. Scientific Reports, 1, https://doi.org/10.1038/srep00126

A method is described for the detection of certain nucleotide modifications adjacent to the 5' 7-methyl guanosine cap of mRNAs from individual genes. The method quantitatively measures the relative abundance of 2'-O-methyl and N 6.
