METTL4 directly catalyzes m6Am formation in vitro. (A) Western blotting of cell lysate from Mettl4-KO HEK293T transfected with METTL4WT or METTL4CD or untransfected (control). Expected size of purified protein is 57kDa. HSP60 (∼61 kDa) is displayed as a comparison. (B) Sequence of U2-Am30 and U2-A30 RNA substrates used for in vitro methylation. ‘AAG’ sites are highlighted in red. (C) Anti-m6A dot blotting of RNA substrates in vitro methylated by METTL4WT or METTL4CD. Duplicate dots are shown. (D) Nucleoside HPLC–MS/MS of m6Am as a percentage of total m6Am and Am in RNA substrates in vitro methylated by METTL4WT or METTL4CD. Displayed are average and standard deviation error of triplicates. One-tailed Student's t-test P-value is shown.
