摘要

RNA modifications induce reverse transcription (RT) errors in an enzyme- and context-dependent manner, enabling transcriptome-wide mapping and RNA structure probing. We present FIRST-seq, a flexible, cost-effective nanopore cDNA method that avoids second-strand synthesis and PCR, making it compatible with any RT enzyme and enabling single-nucleotide resolution RT signature analysis. Benchmarking multiple RT enzymes and buffers identified conditions that reduce premature termination and enhance error detection. Coupled with DMS probing, FIRST-seq accurately detects m1A and m3C at unpaired sites, recapitulating known RNA structures in vitro and in vivo. FIRST-seq offers a versatile platform for profiling chemical-induced and natural RNA modifications using long-read sequencing.
