m6A-RIP seq of Huh7 cells
m6A seq was performed after IP of m6A antibody  in Huh7 cells. Overall design: m6A-RIP assay was performed on Huh7 cells by LC-Bio (Hangzhou, China).Total RNA was isolated and purified using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) following the manufacturer's procedure. The RNA amount and purity of each sample was quantified using NanoDrop ND-1000 (NanoDrop, Wilmington, DE, USA). The RNA integrity was assessed by Bioanalyzer 2100 (Agilent, CA, USA) with RIN number >7.0, and confirmed by electrophoresis with denaturing agarose gel. Approximately more than 25 µg of total RNA representing a specific adipose type was used to deplete ribosomal RNA according to the manuscript of the Epicentre Ribo-Zero Gold Kit (Illumina, San Diego, USA). Following purification, the ribosomal-depleted RNA was fragmented into small pieces using Magnesium RNA Fragmentation Module (NEB, cat.e6150, USA) under 86? 7min. Then the cleaved RNA fragments were incubated for 2h at 4? with m6A-specific antibody (No. 202003, Synaptic Systems, Germany) in IP buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 750 mM NaCl and 0.5% Igepal CA-630). Then the IP RNA was reverse-transcribed to create the cDNA by SuperScript™ II Reverse Transcriptase (Invitrogen, cat. 1896649, USA), which were next used to synthesise U-labeled second-stranded DNAs with E. coli DNA polymerase I (NEB, cat.m0209, USA), RNase H (NEB, cat.m0297, USA) and dUTP Solution (Thermo Fisher, cat.R0133, USA). An A-base is then added to the blunt ends of each strand, preparing them for ligation to the indexed adapters. Each adapter contains a T-base overhang for ligating the adapter to the A-tailed fragmented DNA. Single- or dual-index adapters are ligated to the fragments, and size selection was performed with AMPureXP beads. After the heat-labile UDG enzyme (NEB, cat.m0280, USA) treatment of the U-labeled second-stranded DNAs, the ligated products are amplified with PCR by the following conditions: initial denaturation at 95? for 3 min; 8 cycles of denaturation at 98? for 15 sec, annealing at 60? for 15 sec, and extension at 72? for 30 sec; and then final extension at 72? for 5 min. The average insert size for the final cDNA library was 300±50 bp. At last, we performed the 2×150bp paired-end sequencing (PE150) on an illumina Novaseq™ 6000 (LC-Bio Technology CO., Ltd., Hangzhou, China) following the vendor's recommended protocol.
