A model for crosstalk of m6A and other mRNA modifications at mRNA

Some readers show ability to recognize more than one chemical mark in mRNA (on the left). This can have different consequences (on the right), such as: A. Competitive binding. B. Counter regulation by modifications. In this way RNA-modification-reader complex may act as a recruitment platform for other factors and/or can facilitate deposition/recognition of other modifications in the RNA molecule. C. Cooperative reader recruitment: Different modification at the same template act synergistically in cooperative manner to increase or manifest the load of common reader proteins at given mRNA template. Herein multi-readerassembly may facilitate events essential for mRNP packaging, remodelling, export or surveillance.
