YTHDF2 mediates the mRNA degradation in prostate cancer in m6A-dependent way

As the crucial m6A reader, YTHDF2 usually degrades the target mRNAs by recognizing the m6A modified sites, consequently altering m6A levels of each mRNA. In this study, we used m6A MeRIP sequencing to detect the m6A modification alterations in prostate cancer (PCa) cell line after knocking down YTHDF2 and identify how YTHDF2 promote the PCa progression by mediating the mRNA degradation in m6A-dependent way. Overall design: M6A MeRIP sequencing was used to detect the m6A modification alterations in two groups (PC-3 cell line, shNC and shYTHDF2).
