Summary

YTHDC2 was recently found to promote a “fast-track” expression program for specific mRNAs, and the data suggest that YTH DC2 accomplishes this by recruitment of the RNA degradation machinery to regulate the stability of m6A-containing m RNAs and by utilizing its distinct RNA-binding domains to bridge interactions between m6a-containingmRNAs and the ribosomes to facilitate their efficient translation.
