Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

YTHDF1 is an N6-methyladenosine (m6A) reader protein that functions as a master translational regulator, recognizing m6A-modified mRNAs through its YTH domain and promoting their ribosome-associated translation across diverse biological contexts including neuronal plasticity, intestinal stem cell maintenance, innate and adaptive immunity, and tumorigenesis (PMID:30401835, PMID:30728504, PMID:32064749, PMID:33999206). YTHDF1 recruits translation machinery — interacting with partners such as RUVBL1/2 at 40S initiation complexes, eIF5B, and DDX60 — to selectively enhance protein output from target transcripts encoding cell cycle regulators (CDK2, CDK4, cyclin E2), signaling effectors (EZH2, YAP, p65/RelA), and lysosomal proteases (cathepsins), without necessarily altering mRNA abundance (PMID:38900944, PMID:39672819, PMID:33999206, PMID:31653849, PMID:37459919). Beyond translation, YTHDF1 participates in mRNA degradation through AGO2 interaction and P-body phase separation, sequesters m6A-modified mRNAs in stress granules to protect them under cellular stress, and its activity is regulated by post-translational modifications including O-GlcNAcylation (controlling nuclear export via CRM1) and lactylation (triggering its own degradation) (PMID:34821414, PMID:37857002, PMID:37086786, PMID:39496835). YTHDF1 translational activity is gated by FMRP, which sequesters YTHDF1 from ribosomes until neuronal stimulation-induced FMRP phosphorylation releases it, coupling epitranscriptomic translation control to synaptic activity (PMID:37949069).
