The 2-O-methylation (2-O-Me) of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) shows plasticity potentially associated with specific cell phenotypes. We used RiboMeth-seq profiling to reveal 2-O-Me patterns specific to stress induced premature senescent (SIPS), quiescent and proliferating human dermal fibroblasts. The altered methylation levels in SIPS and quiescence partially correlated with the expression of specific snoRNAs but not fibrillarin. Senescence and quiescence were accompanied by a trend towards preferred usage of one of the two alternative ribosome biogenesis pathways.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
