RNA can be modified by over 170 types of distinct chemical modifications, and the most abundant internal modification of mRNA in eukaryotes is N6-methyladenosine (m 6 A). The m 6 A modification accelerates mRNA process, including mRNA splicing, translation, transcript stability, export and decay. m 6 A RNA modification is installed by methyltransferase-like proteins (writers), and potentially removed by demethylases (erasers), and this process is recognized by m 6 A-binding proteins (readers). Notably, alterations of m 6 A-modified proteins (writers, erasers and readers) are involved in the tumorigenesis, progression and metastasis. Importantly, the fate of m 6 A-methylated mRNA is mediated mostly through m 6 A readers, and among these readers, insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding proteins (IGF2BPs) are unique RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that stabilize their targets mRNA via m 6 A modification. In this review, we update the writers, erasers and readers, and their cross-talks in m 6 A modification, and briefly discuss the oncogenic role of IGF2BPs in cancer. Most importantly, we mainly review the up-to-date knowledges of IGF2BPs (IGF2BP1/2/3) as m 6 A readers in an m 6 A-modified manner in cancer progression.
