Fig. 2From: The crucial roles of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification in the carcinogenesis and progression of colorectal cancerFunctions of m6A modification on mRNA. M6A modification undergo alternative splicing with the recruitment of splicing factors to m6A sites or flanking sequences. After splicing, m6A-containing mRNAs are recognized by YTHDC1 and exported into cytoplasm. M6A on mature mRNAs affects mRNA stability, translation initiation, and translation elongationBack to article page
