N(6)-Methyladenosine in Nuclear RNA is a Major Substrate of the Obesity-Associated FTO

We report here that FTO (fat mass and obesity-associated protein) exhibits efficient oxidative demethylation activity of abundant N(6)-methyladenosine (m(6)A) residues in RNA in vitro. FTO knockdown with siRNA led to an increased level of m(6)A in mRNA, whereas overexpression of FTO resulted in a de...
