Table 2.

Absolute quantification of RNA modifications. The numbers correspond to the modification content of species in Figure 1B. Only those 17 modifications for which SILIS and external calibration standards were available could be quantified in abolsute terms, and for lack of a defined sequence, results arenormalized to the UV signal of adenosine [%]. bdl = below detection limit. * = quantification of this peak has exceeded calibration range.
