Profiling of N6-methyladenosine in HepG2 cells: SETD2, METTL3, METTL14 or WTAP knockdown and control cells
SETD2 is the specific methyltransferase of H3K36me3, while METTL3, METTL14 and WTAP are the components of m6A methyltransferase complex. To understand the global effect of H3K36me3 on m6A modification, we compared the m6A profiling in SETD2 and METTL3, METTL14 or WTAP knockdown HepG2 cells, and found depletion of H3K36me3 by SETD2 silencing globally reduced m6A in human transcriptome. What's more, most of the SETD2-dependent hypomethylation sites also responded to knockdown of METTL3, METTL14, or WTAP. Overall design: m6A-seq in HepG2 cells with stable-y expressed SETD2, METTL3, METTL14, WTAP or non-specific control shRNAs.
