This article needs some help!
The only topic really covered in this article is mRNA processing. The numerous additional post-transcriptional modifications! There are about 100 different base modifications that take place in RNA. I'm not saying this article has to address all of them, but there should be some significant amount of content describing such.
I will try to get back to it when time allows, but you can help too Hichris 04:20, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
I agree with Hichris. Chemical modifications are part of post-transcriptional modifications in RNA. All known modifications can be found in the RNA Modification database http://library.med.utah.edu/RNAmods/

I agree with this as well. Since I also thought the first paragraph generally needed some cleaning as well, I re-wrote it to make the article more open to non-mRNA modifications. I will maybe add one (for miRNA and siRNA) later when I have the time. Unfortunately, I don't know much about other modifications so someone else will have to expand on it still. This article is also going to need sections. Chriff 20:47, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
