This project investigates the transcriptome-wide N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation profiles in skin tissues of Junken meat sheep with different coat-color phenotypes. Six lambs were included in the experiment, comprising three black-headed and white-bodied lambs and three uniformly black lambs. For each black-headed and white-bodied lamb, skin samples were collected from both the head and lateral body regions, whereas for each uniformly black lamb, skin samples were collected from the lateral body region only, resulting in a total of nine skin samples. The samples were subjected to methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeRIP-seq) to characterize transcriptome-wide m6A modification patterns and to investigate potential differences associated with coat-color variation in Junken meat sheep.
