General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
metabolism | during the reaction, the hv-excited FMN abstracts one electron and one proton from N6-methyl in m6A, probably via a proton-coupled electron transfer pathway, to give the deprotonated amine radical cation and the semiquinone radical of FMNH. A second proton-coupled electron transfer then leads to the formation of the corresponding imine with the concomitant reduction of the FMNH radical to FMNH2. The N,O-hemiacetal hm6A is formed from the hydration of II[4a,b] and it quickly oxidizes to N6-formyladenosine, followed by water-assisted decomposition to yield the adenosine and formic acid. Alternatively, a direct loss of formaldehyde from N6-formyladenosine would also afford adenosine | synthetic construct |
physiological function | flavin mononucleotide functions as an artificial m6A demethylase. FMN mediates substantial photochemical demethylation of m6A residues of RNA in live cells | synthetic construct |
