N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation mediates cancer development by regulating cell proliferation and metastasis. This study aimed to identify whether methyltransferase 14 (METTL14) affects gastric cancer (GC) cellular functions and its underlying mechanism. METTL14 and TATA-box binding protein associated factor 10 (TAF10) levels were examined using quantitative real-time PCR, immunohistochemical assay, and Western blot. Biological functions were assessed using cell counting kit-8, colony formation, and transwell assays. The interaction between METTL14 and TAF10 was analyzed using RNA immunoprecipitation, methylated RNA immunoprecipitation, and luciferase reporter assay. A xenograft tumor mouse model was established to assess the role of METTL14
