摘要： Background: In higher eukaryotes, N-6-methyladenosine (m(6)A) is the most common internal form of messenger RNA modification. By mapping the m(6)A methyl genome in multiple species, the potential regulatory function of reversible m(6)A methylation on mRNA is revealed. Recent studies have shown that RNA m(6)A modification influences mRNA transcription, location, translation, stability, splicing, and nuclear export. However, there are not enough data on the m(6)A transcriptome-wide map and its potential biological role in the heat stress of Pak-choi (Brassica rapa ssp. chinensis). Methods: In this work, MeRIP-seq was used to obtain the first transcriptome-wide profiling of RNA m(6)A modification in Pak-choi. Meanwhile, the transcriptome data were obtained by analyzing the input samples' sequencing data. Results: Our research indicated that with three replicates, there were 11,252 common m(6)A peaks and 9729 common m(6)A-containing genes identified in the normal (CK) and heat stress (T43) groups. It was found that m(6)A peaks were highly enriched in the 3 ' untranslated region in both CK and T43 groups. About 80% of the genes have one m(6)A site. The consensus sequence of m(6)A peaks was also enriched, which showed as AAACCV (V: U/A/G). In addition, association analysis found that there is a certain relationship between the degree of m(6)A methylation and the transcription level, indicating that m(6)A plays a certain regulatory role in gene expression. Conclusion: This comprehensive map in the study may provide a solid basis for determining the potential function of RNA m(6)A modification in Pak-choi under normal (CK) and heat stress (T43) conditions.
