A Method for Measuring RNA N 6-methyladenosine Modifications in Cells and Tissues.
Journal of Visualized Experiments : JoVE 2016 December 6
N6 -Methyladenosine (m6 A) modifications of RNA are diverse and ubiquitous amongst eukaryotes. They occur in mRNA, rRNA, tRNA, and microRNA. Recent studies have revealed that these reversible RNA modifications affect RNA splicing, translation, degradation, and localization. Multiple physiological processes, like circadian rhythms, stem cell pluripotency, fibrosis, triglyceride metabolism, and obesity are also controlled by m6 A modifications. Immunoprecipitation/sequencing, mass spectrometry, and modified northern blotting are some of the methods commonly employed to measure m6 A modifications. Herein, we present a northeastern blotting technique for measuring m6 A modifications. The current protocol provides good size separation of RNA, better accommodation and standardization for various experimental designs, and clear delineation of m6 A modifications in various sources of RNA. While m6 A modifications are known to have a crucial impact on human physiology relating to circadian rhythms and obesity, their roles in other (patho)physiological states are unclear. Therefore, investigations on m6 A modifications have immense possibility to provide key insights into molecular physiology.
