General Information of the m6A Target Gene (ID: M6ATAR00518)
Target Name Vimentin (vimentin)
Gene Name vimentin
Chromosomal Location 10p13
Family Intermediate filament family
Function
Vimentins are class-III intermediate filaments found in various non-epithelial cells, especially mesenchymal cells. Vimentin is attached to the nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondria, either laterally or terminally;Involved with LARP6 in the stabilization of type I collagen mRNAs for CO1A1 and CO1A2.

Experiment 1 Reporting the m6A Methylation Regulator of This Target Gene [1]
Response Summary METTL3 activated the luciferase activity of TOPflash (a reporter for beta-catenin/TCF signaling), and downregulation of METTL3 inhibited the expression of beta-catenin/TCF target genes Vimentin (vimentin) and N-cadherin, which are two regulators of epithelial-mesenchymal transition. METTL3 silencing decreased the m6A methylation and total mRNA levels of Tankyrase, a negative regulator of axin. METTL3 is a therapeutic target for NPC.
