YTHDF3

protein-coding

YTH N6-methyladenosine RNA binding protein F3, the group of YTH domain containing N6-methyladenosine readers

Gene summary

This gene encodes a member of the YTH (YT521-B homology) domain protein family. The YTH domain is common in eukaryotes, is often found in the middle of the protein sequence, and may function in binding to RNA. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_152758.6. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Specifically recognizes and binds N6-methyladenosine (m6A)-containing RNAs and promotes RNA translation efficiency (PubMed:28106072, PubMed:28106076, PubMed:28281539). 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 (PubMed:22575960, PubMed:24284625, PubMed:28106072, PubMed:28106076, PubMed:28281539). Shares m6A- containing mRNAs targets with YTHDF1 and YTHDF2, and regulates different processes depending on the context (PubMed:28106072, PubMed:28106076). Facilitates the translation of targeted mRNAs in cooperation with YTHDF1 by binding to m6A-containing mRNAs and interacting with 40S and 60S ribosome subunits (PubMed:28106072, PubMed:28106076). Can also act as a regulator of mRNA stability in cooperation with YTHDF2 by binding to m6A-containing mRNA and promoting their degradation (PubMed:28106072). Recognizes and binds m6A-containing circular RNAs (circRNAs) and promotes their translation (PubMed:28281539). circRNAs are generated through back-splicing of pre-mRNAs, a non-canonical splicing process promoted by dsRNA structures across circularizing exons (PubMed:28281539). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22575960, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24284625, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28106072, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28106076, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28281539}.;
