New paper out in @NatureMetabolism!

We show that loss of m⁶A disrupts pancreatic α-cell identity and promotes their transition toward immature β-cells.

My first as co-corresponding with lots of work from my new lab at @UChicago

m6A mRNA methylation regulates pancreatic α-cell plasticity - Nature Metabolism
m6A methylation acts as an epitranscriptomic regulator of endocrine cell identity in pancreatic islet alpha cells, with loss of m6A leading to impaired alpha cell identity, α- to β-cell conversion and...
