m6A Modification:
m6A Regulator Fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) ERASER
m6A Target Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase SUV39H1 (SUV39H1)
Epigenetic Regulation that have Cross-talk with This m6A Modification:
Epigenetic Regulation Type Histone modification (HistMod)
Epigenetic Regulator Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase SUV39H1 (SUV39H1) WRITER View Details
Regulated Target Histone H3 lysine 9 trimethylation (H3K9me3) View Details
Downstream Gene LTR12 View Details
Crosstalk Relationship m6A  →  Histone modification Inhibition
Crosstalk Mechanism m6A modification impacts directly histone modification through modulating the expression level of histone-associated enzymes
Crosstalk Summary FTO deletion and METTL16 overexpression significantly increased m6A levels. This led to the downregulation of the methyltransferase Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase SUV39H1 (SUV39H1), resulting in reduced Histone H3 lysine 9 trimethylation (H3K9me3) expression, which activated LTR7 and LTR12, subsequently activating ERV1.
