    Gram-negative bacteria, particularly Pseudomonas aeruginosa, are significant pathogens causing severe respiratory infections.

  • 2

    RNA modifications play a crucial role in regulating bacterial fitness, pathogenicity, and host innate immune responses.

  • 3

    Dysregulation of epitranscriptomic and epigenetic modifications can lead to exacerbated infectious diseases and tissue damage.

  • 4

    Innate immune memory involves cellular adaptation mechanisms that can influence responses to subsequent microbial challenges.

  • 5

    Understanding RNA modification dynamics is essential for identifying new therapeutic targets against bacterial respiratory infections.
