m 6 A RNA Modification Determines Cell Fate by Regulating mRNA Degradation.
Cellular Reprogramming 2017 August
Emerging evidence suggests that epitranscriptional modifications influence multiple cellular processes. N6-methyladenosine (m6 A), as the most abundant reversible methylation of mRNA, has also been reported to play critical roles in modulating embryonic stem cell differentiation and somatic cell reprogramming by regulating gene expression. This review examined the characteristics of m6 A, including the distribution profile and currently discovered "writer," "eraser," and "reader" proteins. Moreover, the hypothesis is proposed that m6 A could influence cell fate determination, and the underlying mechanisms are due to the related mRNA degradation, causing weakening of previous cell characteristics and eventually leading them to develop into the reverse direction (pluripotency or differentiation state). Accordingly, m6 A modifications presented its potential role in cell fate determination, which provides new insights into understanding the mechanisms of various diseases.
