Project description:We report the m6A methylation maps of zebrafish embryos during early development, and transcriptome-wide changes occured in ythdf2 LOF mutant embryos. Our study reveals the m6A-dependent RNA decay as a previously unidentified maternal mode mechanism to regulate maternal mRNA clearance during zebrafish MZT, highlighting the critical role of the m6A mRNA methylation in animal development.
Project description:Transcriptomics analysis of gene expressions, m6A enrichment levels and ythdf2 binding targets in control and mettl3 or ythdf2 morphants zebrafish embryos
