Fig. 1

a Arginine methylation of immunoprecipitated S-Flag-SBP (SFB) tagged METTL14 protein detected by western blot in HeLa cells. MMA mono-methyl arginine, ADMA asymmetric dimethyl arginine. The experiment was performed once in HeLa cells. b Mass spectrometry showing that METTL14 R255 is methylated. The mass of each b ion and y ion are shown. The mass error of the peptide identification is 0.26326 ppm. c Arginine mono-methylation of S-Flag-SBP (SFB) tagged METTL14 and METTL14 R255K proteins analyzed by western blot. Representative figures of three independent replicates are shown. Source data for (a) and (c) are provided as a Source Data file. d Crystal structure ribbon diagram indicating the position of METTL14 R255 in the METTL3 (cyan) and METTL14 (pink) heterodimer. RNA is shown as a ball-and-stick model in the middle.
