Many congratulations to Guifeng and co-authors - their manuscript "Acute depletion of METTL3 implicates N6-methyladenosine in alternative intron/exon inclusion in the nascent transcriptome" has been accepted for publication in Genome Research today!

We continue a long-running debate on the mechanism for Polycomb recruitment by mouse Xist RNA in our Developmental Cell letter that has been published today. Our perspective is that direct de novo recruitment is solely attributable to hnRNPK binding Xist repeats B + C and that repeat A only affects Polycomb recruitment indirectly.
