Mechanism of m6A modification. RNA undergoes m6A modification by adding a methyl group to the nitrogen atom at position 6 of adenine through the action of ‘writers’. This process is known as m6A modification and can be reversed by ‘erasers’. The m6A-modified RNA, in the presence of ‘readers’, undergoes various outcomes such as splicing, nuclear export, translation, stability enhancement, etc., which ultimately influence the expression of target genes
