Background Information
YTHDF2, also named as YTH domain-containing family protein 2, is a 579 amino acid protein, which contains 1 YTH domain. YTHDF2 specifically recognizes and binds N6-methyladenosine (m6A)-containing RNAs, and regulates mRNA stability. M6A is a modification present at internal sites of mRNAs and some non-coding RNAs and plays a role in the efficiency of mRNA splicing, processing and stability. YTHDF2 acts as a regulator of mRNA stability: binding to m6A-containing mRNAs results in the localization to mRNA decay sites, such as processing bodies (P-bodies), leading to mRNA degradation. YTHDF2 also acts as a promoter of cap-independent mRNA translation following heat shock stress: upon stress, relocalizes to the nucleus and specifically binds mRNAs with some m6A methylation mark at their 5'-UTR, protecting demethylation of mRNAs by FTO, thereby promoting cap-independent mRNA translation. The calculated molecular weight of YTHDF2 is 62 kDa, but the phosphorylated YTHDF2 is about 65-70 kDa.
