A novel N6-Deoxyadenine methyltransferase METL-9 modulates C. elegans immunity via dichotomous mechanisms
5 Jun 2023
Abstract excerpt
-Methyldeoxyadenine (6mA) has been rediscovered as a DNA modification with potential biological function in metazoans. However, the physiological function and regulatory mechanisms regarding the establishment, maintenance and removal of 6mA in eukaryotes are still poorly understood. Here we show that genomic 6mA levels change in response to pathogenic infection in Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). We further...
