Alternative splicing of METTL3 explains apparently METTL3-independent m6A modifications in mRNA [PDF]
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a highly prevalent mRNA modification that promotes degradation of transcripts encoding proteins that have roles in cell development, differentiation, and other pathways. METTL3 is the major methyltransferase that catalyzes the

METTL3 Regulates the Senescence of Stem Cells From the Apical Papilla by Mediating the m6A Modification of E2F3 [PDF]
Introduction and aims: We aimed to investigate whether N6-methyladenosine (m⁶A) methylation modification mediated by METTL3 regulates the senescence of SCAPs, and to elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms.

Comprehensive analysis of m6A methylomes in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension
Idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) is a serious and fatal disease. Recently, m6A has been reported to play an important role in the lungs of IPAH patients and experimental pulmonary hypertension models. However, the meaning of m6A mRNAs in

TBK1-METTL3 Axis Facilitates Antiviral Immunity [PDF]
mRNA m6A modification is heavily involved in modulation of immune responses. However, its function in antiviral immunity is controversial, and how immune responses regulate m6A modification remains elusive. We here find TBK1, a key kinase of antiviral pathways, phosphorylates the core m6A methyltransferase METTL3 at serine 67. The phosphorylated METTL3

The requirement of Mettl3-promoted MyoD mRNA maintenance in proliferative myoblasts for skeletal muscle differentiation [PDF]
Myogenic progenitor/stem cells retain their skeletal muscle differentiation potential by maintaining myogenic transcription factors such as MyoD. However, the mechanism of how MyoD expression is maintained in proliferative progenitor cells has not been ...

7SK methylation by METTL3 promotes transcriptional activity [PDF]
A fundamental feature of cell signaling is the conversion of extracellular signals into adaptive transcriptional responses. The role of RNA modifications in this process is poorly understood. The small nuclear RNA 7SK prevents transcriptional elongation by sequestering the cyclin dependent kinase 9/cyclin T1 (CDK9/CCNT1) positive ...
