METTL3-mediated m6A RNA methylation promotes the anti-tumour immunity of natural killer cells

Post transcriptional modifications to RNA may be important in the function of NK cells but this is not fully known. Here the authors show that m6A-methyltransferase METTL3 deletion in NK cells leads to reduced function and protection against tumour challenge through suppressing response to IL-15.
