PiRNA-30473 contributes to tumorigenesis by regulating RNA m6A-methylation in DLBCL

ABSTRACT: N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the most abundant modification on eukaryote messenger RNA (mRNA), functions in various fundamental bioprocesses. However, the role of m6A in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) remains poorly understood. Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), a novel class of small non-coding RNAs, have been documented to be involved in epigenetic regulation of cancer. Here, we reported that piRNA-30473, which expression supported the aggressive phenotype of DLBCL and was correlated with poor prognosis. Moreover, our data indicated that WTAP (m6A mRNA methylase) was downregulated by piRNA-30473 and played a critical oncogenic role in DLBCL. piRNA-30473 or WTAP depletion also reduced proliferation and induced cell cycle arrest, but not apoptosis in DLBCL cells. In “human-in-mouse” xenograft DLBCL models, inhibition of piRNA-30473 led to a significant reduction in tumor volume compared with control. Furthermore, integrating transcriptome and m6A-seq analyses revealed that WTAP through enhancing m6A levels in mRNA transcripts of its critical target gene HK2 and thereby triggering corresponding signaling cascades in DLBCL. Our study highlights the functional importance of m6A modification machinery in DLBCL, and provides profound insights into the molecular mechanism underlying tumorigenesis by revealing a previously unrecognized mechanisms of gene regulation in DLBCL.

TTC22 increasing total m6A RNA level and colon cancer metastasis via RPL4-WTAP-YTHDF1 axis

Project description:WTAP is an essential component of the RNA N-6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification complexes that guides METLL3-METLL14 heteroduplexes to target RNAs in the nucleus of mammalian cells. Through mining the genotype-tissue expression (GTEx) datasets, we initially found that TTC22 expression was highly correlated with WTAP and FTO in many normal human tissues. Our experimental results indicate that TTC22 could directly capture RNA binding protein RPL4, induce the binding between RPL4 and WTAP mRNA in the cytoplasm, which increased the m6A level, induced alterative splicing, enhanced the stability and translation efficiency of WTAP mRNA, and consequently upregulated the level of total m6A RNA. These results indicate that WTAP mRNA is a m6A target and there is a positive feedback loop between total m6A and WTAP expression. YTHDF1 was found to be an essential m6A WTAP mRNA binding protein. Downregulation of RPL4, WTAP, or YTHDF1 expression could reverse TTC22-enhanced total m6A RNA level. m6A-specific antibody immunoprecipitated RNA-sequencing (meRIP-seq) demonstrated that TTC22 caused dramatic expression changes of genes related to metabolic pathways, ribosome biogenesis, and RNA spliceosome. Furthermore, we also found that TTC22 upregulated the expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related gene SNAI1 via m6A, and promoted metastasis of colon cancer in vitro and in mice. In conclusion, our study illustrates that WTAP mRNA is a m6A target using YTHDF1 as the binding protein. TTC22 could upregulate the levels of WTAP expression and total m6A RNA through the PRL4 binding. The m6A-mediated upregulation of SNAI1 expression may contribute to TTC22-enhanced colon cancer metastasis.

Arabidopsis Messenger RNA N6-methyladenosine Demethylation Regulates Plant Development

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal modification in the messenger RNA (mRNA) of all higher eukaryotes. This modification has been shown to be reversible in mammals; it is installed by a methyltransferase heterodimer complex of METTL3 and METTL14 bound with WTAP, and reversed by iron(II)- and Î±-ketoglutarate-dependent demethylases FTO and ALKBH5. This modification exhibits significant functional roles in various biological processes. The m6A modification as a RNA mark is recognized by reader proteins, such as YTH domain family proteins and HNRNPA2B1; m6A can also act as a structure switch to affect RNA-protein interactions for biological regulation. In Arabidopsis thaliana, the methyltransferase subunit MTA (the plant orthologue of human METTL3, encoded by At4g10760) was well characterized and FIP37 (the plant orthologue of human WTAP) was first identified as the interacting partner of MTA. Here we report the discovery and characterization of reversible m6A methylation mediated by AtALKBH10B (encoded by At4g02940) in A. thaliana, and noticeable roles of this RNA demethylase in affecting plant development and floral transition. Our findings reveal potential broad functions of reversible mRNA methylation in plants. m6A peaks were identified from wild type Columbia-0 and atalkbh10b-1 mutant in two biological replicates

High-resolution mapping reveals a conserved, widespread, dynamic meiotically regulated mRNA methylation program [Mm]

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a common modification of mRNA, with potential roles in fine-tuning the RNA life cycle, but little is known about the pathways regulating this process and its physiological role. Here, we used mass-spectrometry to identify a dense network of proteins physically interacting with METTL3, a core component of the methyltransferase complex, and show that two of them, WTAP and KIAA1429, are required for methylation. Combining high resolution m6A-Seq with knockdown of WTAP allowed us to define accurate maps, at near single-nucleotide resolution, of sites of mRNA methylation across four dynamic programs in human and mouse, including development, differentiation, reprogramming and immune response. Internal WTAP-dependent methylation sites were largely static across the different surveyed conditions and present in the majority of mRNAs. However, methylations were found at much lower levels within highly expressed mRNAs, and methylation is inversely correlated with mRNA stability, consistent with a role in establishing an overall basal, cell-type invariant, distribution of degradation rates. In addition, we identify thousands of WTAP-independent methylation sites at transcription initiation sites, forming part of the mRNA cap structure. We show that the methylations occur at the first transcribed nucleotide, and find that thousands of transcripts are present in different isoforms differing in the methylation state of the first transcribed nucleotide, a previously unappreciated complexity of the transcriptome. Together, our data sheds new light on the proteomic and transcriptional underpinnings of this epitranscriptomic modification in mammals. Examination of m6A methylation across different knockdowns using shRNAs in mouse embryonic fibroblasts, in embyronic and adult brains, and in dendritic cell stimulated with LPS.

Gene expression in Mon-Mac-6 cells treated with METTL3 PROTAC, WD6305 and inhibitor, UZH2

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation is the most prevalent RNA modification, which plays a critical role in various bioprocesses.1 This modification is predominantly catalyzed by the m6A methyltransferase complex (MTC), consisting of core subunits such as methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) and methyltransferase-like 14 (METTL14), along with cofactors like Wilms tumor 1-associated protein (WTAP). We described the development of a first-in-class potent and selective METTL3-targeted degrader, WD6305, which can effectively degrade both METTL3 and its partner protein METTL14. WD6305 showed superior antiproliferative effects in multiple AML cell lines compared to its parent inhibitor, UZH2. Here, we want to compare the changes in genes between the two.

Identification and Characterization of the Mammalian Nuclear RNA N6-Adenosine Methyltransferase Core Complex

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent internal modification found in mammalian messenger and non-coding RNAs. The discoveries of functionally significant demethylases that reverse this methylation as well as the recently revealed m6A distributions in mammalian transcriptomes strongly indicate regulatory functions of this modification. Here we report the identification and characterization of the mammalian nuclear RNA N6-adenosine methyltransferase core (RNMTC) complex. Besides METTL3, a methyltransferase which was the only known component of RNMTC in the past, we discovered that a previously uncharacterized methyltransferase, METTL14, exhibits a N6-adenosine methyltransferase activity higher than METTL3. Together with WTAP, the third component that dramatically affects the cellular m6A level, these three proteins form the core complex that orchestrates m6A deposition on mammalian nuclear RNA. Biochemistry assays, imaging experiments, as well as transcriptome-wide analyses of the binding sites and their effects on m6A methylation support methylation function and reveal new insights of RNMTC.

Act1 modulates mRNA metabolism upon IL-17 stimulation

Project description:The IL-17 receptor adaptor molecule Act1, an RNA binding protein, plays a critical role in IL-17-mediated cancer progression. Here we report a novel mechanism for how IL-17/Act1 induces chemoresistance by modulating redox homeostasis through epitranscriptomic regulation of antioxidant RNA metabolism. Transcriptome-wide mapping of direct Act1-RNA interactions revealed that Act1 binds to the 5'UTR of antioxidant mRNAs and Wilms' tumor 1-associating protein (WTAP), a key regulator in m6A methyltransferase complex. Strikingly, Act1's binding sites are located in proximity to m6A modification sites, which allows Act1 to promote the recruitment of elF3G for cap-independent translation. Loss of Act1’s RNA binding activity or Wtap knockdown abolished IL-17-induced m6A modification and translation of Wtap and antioxidant mRNAs, indicating a feedforward mechanism of Act1-WTAP loop. We then developed antisense oligonucleotides (Wtap ASO) that specifically disrupts Act1’s binding to Wtap mRNA, abolishing IL-17/Act1-WTAP-mediated antioxidant protein production during chemotherapy. Wtap ASO substantially increased the antitumor efficacy of cisplatin, demonstrating a potential therapeutic strategy for chemoresistance.

A novel RNA m6A modulator Zc3h13 plays an anchor role in facilitating nuclear RNA methylation and mouse embryonic stem cell self-renewal

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is an abundant modification in eukaryotic mRNA, regulating mRNA dynamics by influencing mRNA stability, splicing, export and translation. Recent studies discovered m6A methyltransferases (?writer?), demethylases (?eraser?) and binding proteins (?reader?), which modulate m6A methylation. However, the precise m6A regulating machinery still remains incompletely understood. Here we demonstrate that ZC3H13, a zinc finger protein, plays an essential role in modulating m6A methylation on polyadenylated RNA in the nucleus. ZC3H13 exists in an evolutionary-conserved macromolecular complex containing WTAP, Virilizer and Hakai. We confirm the interaction among those proteins and demonstrate that knockdown of Zc3h13 in mouse embryonic stem cell (mESC) significantly decreases global m6A level on mRNA, mainly at 3? untranslated regions (3? UTR). Interestingly, fractionation assays show that upon Zc3h13 knockdown a great majority of WTAP, Virilizer and Hakai translocate to the cytoplasm and the nuclear presence of the methyltransferase Mettl3 and Mettl14 also decrease significantly. In contrast, knockdown of WTAP, Virilizer or Hakai does not change the nuclear localization of Zc3h13. This suggests that Zc3h13 is required for nuclear localization of the Zc3h13-WTAP-Virilizer-Hakai complex, which is important for RNA m6A methylation. Finally, Zc3h13 depletion, as does WTAP, Virilizer or Hakai, impairs self-renewal and triggers mESC differentiation. Taken together, our findings demonstrate that Zc3h13 plays an essential role in anchoring WTAP, Virilizer and Hakai in the nucleus to facilitate m6A methylation and to regulate mESC self-renewal.
