RBFOX2 recognizes N6-methyladenosine to suppress transcription and block myeloid differentiation [RNA-CLIP]

ABSTRACT: N6-methyladenosine (m6A)methylationcan be deposited on chromatin-associated RNAs (caRNAs) by the RNA methyltransferase complex (MTC) to regulate chromatin state and transcription. How the MTC is recruited to distinct genomic loci to accomplish selective transcriptional regulation remains elusive. Here we identify RBFOX2, a well-established RNA-binding protein (RBP), as a chromatin factor that recognizes m6A on caRNAs and recruits RBM15, an MTC component, to install methylation on promoter-associated RNAs (paRNAs). RBM15 also physically interacts with YTHDC1 to facilitate the recruitment of Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) to RBFOX2-bound loci for chromatin silencing and transcription suppression. Furthermore, we found that this m6A/RBM15/YTHDC1/PRC2 axis is essential to myeloid leukemia. Downregulation of RBFOX2 notably inhibits AML cell survival/proliferation and promotes myeloid differentiation of AML cells. RBFOX2 is also required for self-renewal of leukemia stem/initiation cells (LSCs/ LICs) and AML maintenance. Together, our study presents a clear pathway of m6A MTC recruitment and m6A deposition on caRNAs to achieve locus-specific chromatin regulation with potential therapeutic implications.

m6A RNA methylation promotes XIST-mediated transcriptional repression

Project description:XIST is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that mediates transcriptional silencing of X chromosome genes. Here we show that XIST is highly methylated with at least 78 N6-methyladenosine (m6A) residues, a reversible base modification whose function in lncRNAs is unknown. We show that m6A formation in XIST, as well as cellular mRNAs, is mediated by RBM15 and its paralog RBM15B, which bind the m6A-methylation complex and recruit it to specific sites in RNA. This results in methylation of adenosines in adjacent m6A consensus motifs. Furthermore, knockdown of RBM15 and RBM15B, or knockdown of the m6A methyltransferase METTL3 impairs XIST-mediated gene silencing. A systematic comparison of m6A-binding proteins shows that YTHDC1 preferentially recognizes m6A in XIST and is required for XIST function. Additionally, artificial tethering of YTHDC1 to XIST rescues XIST-mediated silencing upon loss of m6A. These data reveal a pathway of m6A formation and recognition required for XIST-mediated transcriptional repression. Three to four biological HEK293T replicates were used to perform iCLIP of endogenous YTH proteins, RBM15, and RBM15B. Crosslinking induced truncations were identified using CIMS-CITS pipeline.

The RNA N6-methyladenosine regulates chromatin remodeling and transcription [seq_m6ARIP]

Project description:The N6-methyladenosine (m6A) has been shown to regulate stability and translation of messenger RNA (mRNA) in various biological processes. Here, we show that the knockout of the m6A writer Mettl3 or a nuclear reader Ythdc1 in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) induces chromatin openness and transcription activation in an m6A-dependent manner. We identified extensive m6A modifications on caRNAs (chromosome-associated RNAs, including promoter-associated RNAs, enhancer RNAs and repeats) that are installed by METTL3. YTHDC1 can bind to a portion of these m6A-modified RNAs and facilitate their decay through the NEXT-mediated nuclear degradation. Therefore, the m6A methylation of these caRNAs reduces their abundances. The knockout of Mettl3 elevates levels of caRNAs and promote open chromatin state and downstream transcription. Collectively, our results reveal that m6A on caRNAs can globally tune chromatin state and transcription.
