N6-methyl-2'-deoxyadenosine (m6dA) is a DNA modification identified in multiple organisms, from prokaryotes to eukaryotes. m6dA is a methylated form of deoxyadenosine where a methyl group is added to the nitrogen at the 6th position of the adenine base. It is reported to play significant roles in cell proliferation, DNA repair, gene expression and regulation, and other biological processes. The level of m6dA is dynamically regulated by methyltransferases and demethylases under physiological and pathological conditions. This modification plays a crucial role in the regulation of gene expression, DNA replication, and genome stability. In prokaryotes, m6dA is well-known for its function in DNA methylation systems, which protect against viral infection and play a role in DNA mismatch repair. In eukaryotes, however, m6dA has only recently gained attention for its regulatory roles in complex biological processes.

The study of m6dA in higher organisms has revealed its potential involvement in gene regulation, particularly in modulating transcriptional activity and influencing chromatin structure. This modification may act as a heritable mark, regulating gene expression patterns across generations, similar to the well-established 5-methylcytosine (5mC). Moreover, m6dA has been associated with various developmental processes, including embryogenesis and tissue differentiation, as well as cellular responses to environmental stressors.
Growing evidence suggests that dysregulation of m6dA can contribute to various diseases, including cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. For example, altered m6dA patterns have been observed in certain cancers, indicating its potential role in oncogenesis. The ability to accurately measure and profile m6dA is therefore crucial for understanding its biological functions and its implications in health and disease.
