METTL3 Gains R/W Access to the Epitranscriptome [PDF]
Epitranscriptomic marks are dynamically placed on mRNA by "writer" or "eraser" enzymes, while "readers" modulate their function accordingly. Lin et al. (2016) now report that the N6-methyladenosine:RNA methyltransferase METTL3 is both a writer and a reader, directly enhancing mRNA translation.

Expression and clinical significance of METTL3 in colorectal cancer
Methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) belongs to the class I MTase family, and it has been proved that METTL3 is highly expressed in a variety of tumors and promotes tumor progression. Our previous studies have shown that METTL3 is highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues compared with para-cancer tissues, and its expression level is negatively ...

Critical Roles of METTL3 in Translation Regulation of Cancer
Aberrant translation, a characteristic feature of cancer, is regulated by the complex and sophisticated RNA binding proteins (RBPs) in the canonical translation machinery. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modifications are the most abundant internal modifications in mRNAs mediated by methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3). METTL3 is commonly aberrantly expressed in

TRMT6‐mediated m1A modification in CDK9 mRNA enhances its mRNA stability and translation efficiency, thereby increasing the protein levels of CDK9. Upregulated CDK9 promotes the progression of HCC by elevating the levels of oncogenic factors including p‐STAT3, MCL1, and BCL‐2. On the other hand, CDK9 phosphorylates TARDBP at Ser254 to activate HBV core

M6A Methyltransferase METTL3 Modulates Traumatic Brain Injury by Targeting Ferroptosis
Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a disease caused by external forces that damage brain structure and function. After TBI, iron accumulation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) increase lipid peroxidation, promoting ferroptosis.
