DNA methylation is of crucial importance for biological genetic expression, such as biological cell differentiation and cellular tumours. The identification of DNA-6mA sites using traditional biological experimental methods requires more cumbersome steps and a large amount of time. The advent of neural network technology has facilitated the identification of 6mA sites on cross-species DNA with enhanced efficacy. Nevertheless, the majority of contemporary neural network models for identifying 6mA sites prioritize the design of the identification model, with comparatively limited research conducted on the statistically significant DNA sequence itself. Consequently, this paper will focus on the statistical strategy of DNA double-stranded features, utilising the multi-head self-attention mechanism in neural networks applied to DNA position probabilistic relationships. Furthermore, a new recognition model, PSATF-6mA, will be constructed by continually adjusting the attentional tendency of feature fusion through an integrated learning framework. The experimental results, obtained through cross-validation with cross-species data, demonstrate that the PSATF-6mA model outperforms the baseline model. The in-Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC) for the cross-species dataset of rice and m.musus genomes can reach a score of 0.982. The present model is expected to assist biologists in more accurately identifying 6mA locus and in formulating new testable biological hypotheses.
