Anti-Zebrafish Mettl3 / Mt-a70

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. N6-adenosine-methyltransferase 70 kDa subunit (METTL3) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by theMETTL3 gene. It is mapped to 14q11.2. This gene encodes the 70 kDa subunit of MT-A which is part of N6-adenosine-methyltransferase. This enzyme is involved in the posttranscriptional methylation of internal adenosine residues in eukaryotic mRNAs, forming N6-methyladenosine. Protein function: The METTL3-METTL14 heterodimer forms a N6-methyltransferase complex that methylates adenosine residues at the N(6) position of some RNAs and regulates various processes such as the circadian clock, differentiation of embryonic and hematopoietic stem cells, cortical neurogenesis, response to DNA damage, differentiation of T-cells and primary miRNA processing (PubMed:28869969). In the heterodimer formed with mettl14, mettl3 constitutes the catalytic core. N6-methyladenosine (m6A), which takes place at the 5'-[AG]GAC-3' consensus sites of some mRNAs, plays a role in mRNA stability, processing and translation efficiency. M6A is also involved in hematopoietic stem cells specification: m6A methylation and subsequent destabilization of mRNAs, such as notch1a, leads to decreased Notch signaling, promoting endothelial to hematopoietic transition (PubMed:28869969). M6A also takes place in other RNA molecules, such as primary miRNA (pri-miRNAs). Mediates methylation of pri-miRNAs. [The UniProt Consortium]
