Abstract
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent internal modification of eukaryotic messenger RNA (mRNA). The total amount of m6A can be detected by several methods, such as dot blot analysis using specific m6A antibodies and quantitative liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) ( Fu et al., 2014 ; Shen et al., 2016 ). Here we describe the method for fast detection of total m6A levels in mRNA by dot blot analysis using a specific m6A antibody.
