---|---|---|
physiological function | catalytic subunit METTL3 interacts in a dense network of proteins. Presence of WTAP (Wilms' tumor associated protein), METTL14 and protein KIAA1429 are required for methylation. WTAP-dependent methylation sites are located at internal positions in transcripts, are topologically static across a variety of systems, and are inversely correlated with mRNA stability. WTAP-independent sites form at the first transcribed base as part of the cap structure, and are present at thousands of sites, forming a layer of transcriptome complexity | Homo sapiens |
