Official symbolFunction

METTL3Catalyzes m6A modification
METTL14Balances the assembly of MTC and demonstrates detailed RNA sequence
METTL16Catalyzes m6A modification
YTHDC1Promotes RNA splicing and export
YTHDC2Improves the protein synthetic activation of target mRNA while reduces the profusion of target mRNA
YTHDF1Promotes mRNA translation
YTHDF2Promotes mRNA degradation
YTHDF3Interacts with YTHDF1 to promote mRNA translation/interacts with YTHDF2 to promote mRNA degradation
WTAPRecruits METTL3 and METTL14 into the nuclear speckles
VIRMARecruits the MTC and correlates with polyadenylation cleavage factors, CPSF6 and CPSF5.
FTORemoves m6A modification
HNRNPA2B1Promotes primary miRNA processing
HNRNPCRegulates mRNA abundance and splicing
RBMXRegulates mRNA abundance and splicing
ZC3H13Combines with WTAP to keep MTC in the nuclear speckles
ALKBH3Removes m6A modification
ALKBH5Removes m6A modification
EIF3AInduces mRNA recruitment to the 43S PIC and detects the mRNA for AUG recognition.
IGF2BP1/2/3Enhances the constancy and protein synthesis from mRNA
PCIF1Recruits to the early elongation complex of RNAPII via interaction with POLR2A and mediates the formation of m6A(m) cotranscriptionally
