Here we present the crystal structures of the YTH domain of YTHDC1, a member of the YTH domain family, and its complex with an m6A-containing RNA. Our structural studies, together with transcriptome-wide identification of YTHDC1-binding sites and biochemical experiments, not only reveal the specific mode of m6A-YTH binding but also explain the preferential recognition of the GG(m6A)C sequences by YTHDC1.
