Emerging links between m(6)A and misregulated mRNA methylation in cancer

N (6)-methyladenosine (m(6)A) in mRNA has emerged as a crucial epitranscriptomic modification that controls cellular differentiation and pluripotency. Recent studies are pointing to a role for the RNA methylation program in cancer self-renewal and cell fate, making this a new and promising therapeut...
