Background Information
METTL8 (methyltransferase-like protein 8) is an m3C methyltransferase that is best known for its mitochondrial role in installing m3C32 on mt-tRNAThr/Ser(UCN). METTL8 has proved to be a transcriptional target of STAT3 that mediates STAT3's functions in mESCs (PMID: 29706498). METTL8 has multiple splicing isoforms and can undergo sumoylation and associate with nuclear RNA-binding proteins to regulate R-loop formation on ribosomal DNA gene (presumably via its methyltransferase activity on m3C) (PMID: 38744809).
