m6A Target LIM domain-containing protein ajuba (AJUBA)
Epigenetic Regulation that have Cross-talk with This m6A Modification:
Epigenetic Regulation Type RNA modification (RNAMod)  >> Adenosine-to-Inosine editing (A-to-I)
Epigenetic Regulator Interferon-inducible protein 4 (ADAR1) WRITER View Details
Regulated Target LIM domain-containing protein ajuba (AJUBA) View Details
Crosstalk Relationship m6A  →  A-to-I Inhibition
Crosstalk Mechanism m6A modification directly impacts RNA modification through targeting the shared RNA
Crosstalk Summary Both the presence and extent of A-to-I sites in m6A-negative RNA transcripts suggest a negative correlation between m6A and A-to-I. Suppression of m6A-catalyzing enzymes results in global A-to-I RNA editing changes. Further depletion of m6A modification increases the association of m6A-depleted transcripts with adenosine deaminase acting on RNA (ADAR) enzymes, resulting in upregulated A-to-I editing on the same m6A-depleted transcripts. Inhibition of METTL3 enhances ADAR1-mediated A-to-I editing of LIM domain-containing protein ajuba (AJUBA) by reducing its m6A modification.
