a Immunoblot analysis of the purification of Strep-METTL2A/B expressed alone or with FLAG-DALRD3 from 293T human embryonic cells. The immunoblot was probed with anti-TwinStrep and anti-FLAG antibodies. Load represents a non-specific protein band detected by the anti-Strep antibody used as load control. Input represents 2% of total. b Nucleic acid stain of RNAs extracted from the indicated input or purified samples after denaturing PAGE. The migration pattern of tRNAs (70–80 nt), 5.8S rRNA (~150 nt), and 5 S rRNA (~120 nt) are denoted. c Northern blot analysis of METTL2A/B-associated RNAs with the indicated probes. The known presence or absence of m3C and the METTL enzyme that generates m3C in a given tRNA is denoted on the right. The purification was repeated three times with similar results. Source data are provided as a Source data file.
