The invention relates to a method for identifying
nucleic acid modification in a to-be-detected
RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) sequence, which comprises the following steps of: performing molecular weight detection on a complete to-be-detected
RNA sequence and actual
enzyme digestion fragments of single
enzyme digestion and double
enzyme digestion; and carrying out molecular weight comparison with a theoretical
enzyme digestion fragment obtained by carrying out theoretical
enzyme digestion of the same enzyme on a theoretical sequence which does not contain
ribose and / or basic group modification or contains part of
ribose and / or basic group modification, so as to obtain a modification mode of
ribose and / or basic group in the
RNA sequence to be detected. According to the information, the specific variety, quantity and position of ribose and / or base modification in the
RNA sequence to be detected can be uniquely determined, or a possible ribose and / or base modification mode in the
RNA sequence to be detected is limited in a limited range; therefore, the specific variety, quantity and position of ribose and / or base modification in the
RNA sequence to be detected can be easily obtained through subsequent analysis.
