METTL14 Gene Summary [Human]

Enables mRNA binding activity. Contributes to mRNA (2'-O-methyladenosine-N6-)-methyltransferase activity. Involved in mRNA metabolic process; negative regulation of hematopoietic progenitor cell differentiation; and positive regulation of translation. Located in nucleoplasm. Part of RNA N6-methyladenosine methyltransferase complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human METTL14 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
