Fat mass and obesity-associated protein regulates lipogenesis via m6 A modification in fatty acid synthase mRNA.

This study provides novel insights into a unique RNA epigenetic mechanism by which FTO mediates hepatic lipid accumulation through m6 A modification and indicates that FTO could be a potential target for obesity-related diseases and cancer.
