Epigenetic Regulation that have Cross-talk with This m6A Modification:
Epigenetic Regulation Type Histone modification (HistMod)
Epigenetic Regulator Histone acetyltransferase p300 (P300) WRITER View Details
Regulated Target Histone H3 lysine 18 lactylation (H3K18la) View Details
Downstream Gene YTHDF2 View Details
Crosstalk Relationship Histone modification  →  m6A Enhancement
Crosstalk Mechanism histone modification directly impacts m6A modification through modulating the level of m6A regulator
Crosstalk Summary Histone lactylation activates the transcription of YTHDF2 through p300-mediated Histone H3 lysine 18 lactylation (H3K18la) modification. In colorectal cancer, Glutaminolysis inhibition upregulated ATF4 expression in an m6A-dependent manner to activate pro-survival autophagy through transcriptional activation of the mTOR inhibitor DDIT4. Determined the relationship between FTO alpha-ketoglutarate dependent dioxygenase (FTO), YTH N6-methyladenosine RNA binding protein 2 (YTHDF2), and ATF4. ATF4 transcriptionally upregulated DDIT4 to suppress Cyclic AMP-dependent transcription factor ATF-4 (ATF4), which induced pro-survival autophagy during glutaminolysis inhibition.
