A study revealed that in multiple cancer cell lines, when ALKBH5 is silenced, the demethylation of m6A in ER lipid raft associated 1 (ERLIN1) mRNA is reduced, and an increase in the expression of the LC3B, a subtype of LC3, is observed, leading to increased autophagic flux [58]. The gene discussed is ALKBH5; the disease is cancer.
