m6A modification RNU6-1 RNU6-1 METTL16 Methylation : m6A sites Direct Enhancement Non-coding RNA RNU6-1 Regulated Target  lncRNA       miRNA   circRNA
m6A Modification:
m6A Regulator Methyltransferase-like 16 (METTL16) WRITER
m6A Target RNA, U6 small nuclear 1 (RNU6-1)
Epigenetic Regulation that have Cross-talk with This m6A Modification:
Epigenetic Regulation Type Non-coding RNA (ncRNA)
Epigenetic Regulator RNA, U6 small nuclear 1 (RNU6-1) snRNA View Details
Crosstalk Relationship m6A  →  ncRNA Enhancement
Crosstalk Mechanism m6A regulators directly modulate the functionality of ncRNAs through specific targeting ncRNA
Crosstalk Summary Inhibition of METTL16 activity significantly reduces the m6A modification levels of RNA, U6 small nuclear 1 (RNU6-1)
In-vitro Model
HEK293 Normal Homo sapiens CVCL_0045
In-vivo Model In brief, HEK293 cells expressing the Flag tag or METTL16-Flag were grown in DMEM and crosslinked at 254 nm (UV-CRAC), or alternatively were grown in DMEM supplemented with 100 μM 4-thiouridine for 6 h prior to crosslinking at 365 nm (PAR-CRAC). Samples were then processed and the obtained sequence reads were mapped to the human genome (GRCh37.p13).
