Model of tG026 mechanism in liver injury. Loss of NSun2 can ameliorate liver injury produced by CCl4 injection. Mechanistically, the loss of NSun2 reduces m5U and m5C modifications. Hence, the tRNAs become unstable and produce tsRNAs, particularly tRF-1s. Through further screening experiments, tG026 was found to inhibit the association between TSR1 and 18S rRNA by interacting with TSR1, thereby reducing global protein synthesis and alleviating liver injury
