Crosstalk Relationship Histone modification  →  m6A Enhancement
Crosstalk Mechanism histone modification indirectly regulates m6A modification through downstream signaling pathways
Crosstalk Summary LINC01605 was regulated by SMYD2-EP300-mediated modifications of histone Histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) as well as H3K27ac. LINC01605 was found to bind to METTL3 and promote the m6A modification of SPTBN2 mRNA, thereby facilitating the translation of SPTBN2. the malignant behaviors governed by Lithostathine-1-alpha (REG1A) could be effectively abolished by silencing of Wnt/beta-catenin/MYC axis or glycolysis process using specific inhibitors. Besides, REG1alpha expression was mediated by METTL3 in an m6A-dependent manner.
