Abstract excerpt
N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent modification of RNA in eukaryotes, and is associated with many cellular processes and even the development of cancers. We hypothesized that single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in m6A modification genes, including its "writers", "erasers" and "readers", might affect the m6A functions and associate with the susceptibility to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)....
