To characterize the N6-methyladenosine (m6A)-related gene expression profiles in various tissues of Meishan pigs at different stages, m6A modification-related genes (METTL3, METTL14, METTL16, WTAP, RBM15, and FTO) were detected from newborn to physical maturity eight important developmental stages (1, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 134, 158 days old). The m6A-related was tissue-specific. Furthermore, level METTL3 messenger RNA (mRNA) higher on day 35 than other most [...]
