Mettl14 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables mRNA m(6)A methyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including RNA metabolic process; forebrain radial glial cell differentiation; and regulation of mRNA stability. Part of RNA N6-methyladenosine methyltransferase complex. Is active in nucleus. Is expressed in brain; hindlimb; intestine; and liver. Orthologous to human METTL14 (methyltransferase 14, N6-adenosine-methyltransferase non-catalytic subunit). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 mouse 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.
