Recent studies reported that METTL4 regulates DNA 6mA in vivo and therefore is a candidate DNA m6A methyltransfease. However, the enzymatic activity of METTL4 in vitro has not been demonstrated in part due to the difficulties of obtaining well-folded proteins. Here we show that mettl4 is a major methyltransfase responsible for m6A methylation of U2 snRNA both in vitro and in vivo in fly, and identify adenosine at 29th position as the&...
