Abstract
N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant modification in eukaryotic mRNA, and plays important biological functions via regulating RNA fate determination. Recent studies have shown that m6A modification plays a key role in hematologic malignancies, including acute myeloid leukemia. The current growth of epitranscriptomic research mainly benefits from technological progress in detecting RNA m6A modification in a transcriptome-wide manner. In this review, we first briefly summarize the latest advances in RNA m6A biology by focusing on writers, readers, and erasers of m6A modification, and describe the development of high-throughput methods for RNA m6A mapping. We further discuss the important roles of m6A modifiers in acute myeloid leukemia, and highlight the identification of potential inhibitors for AML treatment by targeting of m6A modifiers. Overall, this review provides a comprehensive summary of RNA m6A biology in acute myeloid leukemia.
