title: Structures of the m(6)A Methyltransferase Complex: Two Subunits with Distinct but Coordinated Roles.
abstract: In this issue of Molecular Cell, Wang et al. (2016a) report crystal structures of the core of the METTL3/METTL14 m(6)A methyltransferase complex and propose how the two subunits interact and cooperate to bind and methylate RNA.
