Abstract
The invention relates to nucleic acid molecules for pseudouridylation of a target uridine in a target RNA in a mammalian cell, wherein the nucleic acid molecule comprises a guide region capable of forming a partially double stranded nucleic acid complex with the target RNA comprising the target uridine, wherein the partially double stranded nucleic acid complex is capable of engaging a mammalian pseudouridylation enzyme, wherein the guide region assists in positioning the target uridine in the partially double stranded nucleic acid complex for it to be converted to a pseudouridine by the mammalian pseudouridylation enzyme.
