Epigenetic Regulation that have Cross-talk with This m6A Modification:
Epigenetic Regulation Type Histone modification (HistMod)
Epigenetic Regulator Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase EHMT2 (EHMT2) WRITER View Details
Regulated Target Histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) View Details
Downstream Gene METTL3 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 EHMT2 promotes m6A methyltransferase activity of METTL3 by regulating Histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) level during ET. Protein SON rescues MYC and suppresses the METTL3-HSC inflammatory gene expression program, including CCL5, through transcriptional regulation. Thus, our findings define a m6A-SON-CCL5 axis that controls inflammation and HSC fate.
