m6A mRNA modification is a rheostat to maintain colonic epithelial cell homeostasis [bulkRNA-seq]
The function of m6A modification in colonic epithelial cells has been validated in our study that depletion of METTL14 in colonic epithelial cells triggers cell death. To further explore the biological effects of m6A deficiency in colonic epithelial cells, we performed RNA sequencing analysis of colonic epithelial cells form 2-week-old Mettl14-KO and WT control mice.The bioinformatic analysis revealed that METTL14 depletion increased the mRNA expression of NF-kB inhibitor Nfkbia, which favored TNF-induced cell death. Overall design: RNA samples from Mettl14-KO and WT control colonic epithelial cells were collected, and then RNA purification, reverse transcription, library construction and sequencing were performed according to the manufacturer's instructions (Illumina).
