METTL3/METTL14 Complex Chemiluminescent Assay Kit

METTL3 (methyltransferase 3, N6-adenosine-methyltransferase complex catalytic subunit) /METTL4 (methyltransferase 4, N6-adenosine) and METTL14 (methyltransferase 14, N6-adenosine) form the core of a complex involved in N6-methyladenosine addition to RNA, one of the most common mRNA modifications, and belong to the group known as “writer” proteins. METTL3 expression is altered in cancer via different processes. For instance, in pancreatic cancer cigarette smoke condensate influences METTL3 promoter hypomethylation and increases its expression. This complex can act as a tumor suppressor or activator and promote chemoresistance.  It has been linked to acute myeloid leukemia (AML), liver, lung, bladder cancer and others. Interestingly METTL3 can activate certain oncogenes by simply recruiting eIF3 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3), a process that does not require its catalytic activity. Its role in cancer has made it an attractive target in oncology. STM2457, a highly selective potent METT3/METTL14 inhibitor, resulted in AML cells undergoing differentiation and apoptosis. A deeper understanding of the role of this complex in cancer and development of new therapeutics around it will benefit the cancer therapy field.
