description Mastitis is a common disease in dairy cows that is mostly caused by <i>E. coli</i>, and it brings massive losses to the dairy industry. <i>N</i><sup>6</sup>-Methyladenosine (m<sup>6</sup>A), a methylation at the <i>N</i><sup>6</sup> position of RNA adenine, is a type of modification strongly associated with many diseases. However, the role of m<sup>6</sup>A in mastitis has not been investigated. In this study, we used MeRIP-seq to sequence the RNA of bovine mammary epithelial cells treated with inactivated <i>E. coli</i> for 24 h. In this in vitro infection model, there were 16,691 m<sup>6</sup>A peaks within 7066 mRNA transcripts in the Con group and 10,029 peaks within 4891 transcripts in the <i>E. coli</i> group. Compared with the Con group, 474 mRNAs were hypermethylated and 2101 mRNAs were hypomethylated in the <i>E. coli</i> group. Biological function analyses revealed differential m<sup>6</sup>A-modified genes mainly enriched in the MAPK, NF-κB, and TGF-β signaling pathways. In order to explore the relationship between m<sup>6</sup>A and mRNA expression, combined MeRIP-seq and mRNA-seq analyses revealed 212 genes with concomitant changes in the mRNA expression and m<sup>6</sup>A modification. This study is the first to present a map of RNA m<sup>6</sup>A modification in mastitis treated with <i>E. coli</i>, providing a basis for future research.
