TAMT-1 is a methyltransferase for N6-deoxyadenosine methylation in Tetrahymena. a UHPLC-MS/MS quantification of 6mA level in wide-type and TAMT-1 knockout cells. Error bars indicate mean ± s.d. of three biological replicates, each measured in duplicates. b In vitro methyltransferase activity of TAMT-1 was tested using different DNA probes (numbered 1–3) with the consensus sequence of CATG, GATC, and random AT. The methylation yields were calculated by the molar ratio of d3-m6A to digested probes. Error bars indicate mean ± s.d. of three biological replicates, each measured in duplicate. c Mutation of TAMT-1 strongly depleted the methylation activity as detected by UHPLC-MS/MS. Error bars indicate mean ± s.d. of three biological replicates, each measured in duplicate
