Roles and mechanisms of the m6A reader YTHDC1 in biological processes and diseases

Abstract N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a key area in Epigenetics and has been increasingly focused these years. In the m6A process, readers recognize the m6A modification on mRNAs or noncoding RNAs and mediate different downstream events. Emerging studies have shown that YTHDC1, an important m6A reade...

description Abstract N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a key area in Epigenetics and has been increasingly focused these years. In the m6A process, readers recognize the m6A modification on mRNAs or noncoding RNAs and mediate different downstream events. Emerging studies have shown that YTHDC1, an important m6A reader, plays a key role in many biological functions and disease progression, especially cancers. Here we summarized the current mechanisms of YTHDC1 in biological functions and diseases and offered guidance for future researches to provide potential strategy for clinical diagnose and therapy.
