Nucleotide Array - Anti-N6-methyladenosine (m6A) antibody [mAbcam 190886] - BSA and Azide free (AB190886)
All batches of ab190886 are tested in Nucleotide Array against N6-methyladenosine and unmodified adenosine. Six dilutions of each oligomer are printed on to the Array in triplicate and results are averaged before being plotted on to a graph. Results show strong binding to N6-methyladenosine, indicating that this antibody specifically recognises adenosine methylated at position N6.

Product details
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a post-transcriptional modification of RNA. m6A modification has been identified in all classes of RNA (rRNA, tRNA and mRNA) and is catalysed by an evolutionary conserved multi-subunit enzyme, methyltransferase like 3 (METTL3). Cellular and viral RNA has been known to be methylated for decades. Recent studies have found that mRNA is predominately m6A modified at stop codons and long internal exons, which are conserved between mouse and human. Emerging evidence suggests m6A plays an important role in regulating gene expression, alternative splicing patterns, downstream signalling (p53) as well as apoptosis.
The regulation of m6A modifications in mRNA has been linked to disease, where fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) has been has been reported to be a obesity risk gene. FTO is a m6A demethylase and polymorphisms that result in increased FTO expression are associated with increased body mass and risk of obesity.

Biological function summary
M6A methylation affects mRNA processing stability translation and decay. It integrates into large multi-protein complexes where it influences gene expression outcomes by affecting the RNA's interaction with the cellular machinery. This methylation modification acts as a regulatory signal that influences essential processes such as cell differentiation and circadian rhythms. Elucidating the biological functions of m6A involves studying how it affects RNA fate and its downstream gene regulatory networks.
Pathways
M6A modification is central to the mRNA metabolic pathway and the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. It interacts with various proteins such as METTL3 an m6A methyltransferase which is vital for mediating m6A modification. It also interacts with YTH domain-containing proteins that recognize m6A marks influencing transcript dynamics and gene expression. The interplay of m6A with proteins in these pathways underlines its role in fine-tuning cellular processes and responses.
