Summary
Enables mRNA m(6)A methyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including RNA metabolic process; forebrain radial glial cell differentiation; and mRNA destabilization. Located in nucleus. Part of RNA N6-methyladenosine methyltransferase complex. Is expressed in brain; genitourinary system; hindlimb; intestine; and liver. Orthologous to human METTL3 (methyltransferase 3, N6-adenosine-methyltransferase complex catalytic subunit). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
