N 6‐methyladenosine modification in mRNA: machinery, function and implications for health and diseases
Abstract
N 6‐methyladenosine (m 6 A) modification in mRNA is extremely widespread, and functionally modulates the eukaryotic transcriptome to influence mRNA splicing, export, localization, translation, and stability. Methylated adenines are present in a large subset of mRNA s and long noncoding RNA s (lnc RNA s). Methylation is reversible, and this is accomplished by the orchestrated action of highly conserved methyltransferase (m 6 A writer) and demethylase (m 6 A eraser) enzymes to shape the cellular ‘epitranscriptome’. The engraved ‘methyl code’ is subsequently decoded and executed by a group of m 6 A reader/effector components, which, in turn, govern the fate of the modified transcripts, thereby dictating their potential for translation. Reversible mRNA methylation thus adds another layer of regulation at the post‐transcriptional level in the gene expression programme of eukaryotes that finely sculpts a highly dynamic proteome in order to respond to diverse cues during cellular differentiation, immune tolerance, and neuronal signalling.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
