N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent posttranscriptional modification in eukaryotic mRNAs. Dynamic and reversible m6A modification regulates gene expression to control cellular processes and diverse biological functions. Growing evidence indicated that m6A modification is involved in the homeostasis of host and microbes (mostly viruses and bacteria). Disturbance of m6A modification affects the life cycles of viruses and bacteria, however, these microbes could in turn change host m6A modification leading to human disease including autoimmune diseases and cancer. Thus, we raise the concept that m6A could be a “messenger” molecule to participate in the interactions between host and microbes. In this review, we summarize the regulatory mechanisms of m6A modification on viruses and commensal microbiota, highlight the roles of m6A methylation in the interaction of host and microbes, and finally discuss drugs development targeting m6A modification.

N6-甲基腺苷修饰在宿主与微生物相互作用中的调控作用
N 6 -甲基腺苷 (m 6 A) 是真核生物 mRNA 中最普遍的转录后修饰。动态和可逆的 m 6 A 修饰调节基因表达以控制细胞过程和多种生物学功能。越来越多的证据表明,m 6 A 修饰与宿主和微生物(主要是病毒和细菌)的稳态有关。m 6 A 修饰的干扰会影响病毒和细菌的生命周期,然而,这些微生物可能反过来改变宿主 m 6 A 修饰,导致人类疾病,包括自身免疫性疾病和癌症。因此,我们提出了 m 6的概念A 可能是参与宿主和微生物之间相互作用的“信使”分子。在这篇综述中,我们总结了m 6 A 修饰对病毒和共生微生物群的调控机制,突出了m 6 A 甲基化在宿主和微生物相互作用中的作用,最后讨论了针对m 6 A 修饰的药物开发。
