Project description:The N6-methyladenosine (m6A) mRNA modification and the mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC) hold paramount importance in the advancement of MASLD. This study thoroughly investigates the relationship and impact of m6A mRNA modification and mitochondrial function in the progression of MASLD. Here we report that the mRNA and protein levels of mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC) subunits showed inconsistent trends in vivo experiments. Abnormal m6A modification and mitochondrial dysfunction in MASLD were attributed to the upregulation of methyltransferase like 3 (Mettl3) and the downregulation of YTH N6-methyladenosine RNA binding protein 1 (YTHDF1) induced by high-fat foods. Mettl3 promoted the MRC's function. However, knockout of the reader protein YTHDF1, which plays a crucial role in the m6A modification process, counteracted the effect of Mettl3 and suppressed MRC. In MASLD, damage to the MRC may be regulated by the Mettl3-m6A-YTHDF1 complex axis, especially by the role of YTHDF1. Our research has offered a novel perspective on the involvement of m6A mRNA methylation in the pathogenesis of MASLD.

Project description:Here we show the repressive H3K9me2 mark is specifically removed by the induction of m6A-modified transcripts. We demonstrate that the methyltransferase METTL3/METTL14 regulates H3K9me2 modification. We observed a genome-wide correlation between m6A and occupancy by the H3K9me2 demethylase KDM3B, and we found m6A reader YTHDC1 physically interacts and recruits KDM3B to m6A-associated chromatin regions, promoting H3K9me2 demethylation and gene expression. This study establishes a direct link between m6A and dynamic chromatin modification and provides mechanistic insight into the co-transcriptional interplay between RNA modification and histone modifications.

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 α-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

Project description:The induction of beige adipocytes in white adipose tissue (WAT), also known as WAT beiging, improves glucose and lipid metabolism. However, the regulation of WAT beiging at the posttranscriptional level remains elusive. Here, we report that METTL3, the methyltransferase of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) mRNA modification, is induced during WAT beiging in mice. Adipose-specific depletion of Mettl3 gene undermines WAT beiging. Transcriptomic analysis of m6A modifications and mRNA expression level reveals global reduction of m6A-modified mRNAs in Mettl3-depleted beige adipose tissue. In particular, METTL3-catalyzed m6A installation on Krüppel-like factor 9 (Klf9) mRNA prevents its degradation. We further demonstrate that the m6A reader protein IGF2BP3 mediates the stabilization of m6A-modified Klf9 mRNA. Overexpressioin of KLF9 protein reverses the impaired WAT beiging elicited by Mettl3 deletion. These findings uncover a novel epitranscriptional mechanism in WAT beiging and identify METTL3-KLF9 axis as a potential therapeutic target for obesity-associated disorders.

Project description:The role of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modifications in renal diseases is largely unknown. Here, we characterised the role of N6-adenosine-methyltransferase METTL3, whose expression is elevated in renal tubules in different acute kidney injury (AKI) models as well as in human biopsies and cultured tubular epithelial cells (TECs). METTL3 silencing alleviated renal inflammation and programmed cell death in TECs in response to stimulation by tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), cisplatin, and lipopolysaccharide (LPS), whereas METTL3 overexpression had the opposite effects. Conditional knockout (cKO) of METTL3 from mouse kidneys attenuated cisplatin- and ischemic/reperfusion (I/R)-induced renal dysfunction, injury, and inflammation. Moreover, TAB3 was identified as a target of METTL3 by m6A methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing and RNA sequencing. The stability of TAB3 was increased through binding of IGF2BP2 to its m6A-modified stop codon regions. The pro-inflammatory effects of TAB3 were then explored both in vivo and in vitro. Adeno-associated virus 9 (AAV9)-mediated METTL3 silencing attenuated renal injury and inflammation in cisplatin- and LPS-induced AKI mouse models. We further identified Cpd-564 as a METTL3 inhibitor that had better protective effects against cisplatin- and I/R-induced renal injury and inflammation than S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine, a previously-identified METTL3 inhibitor. Collectively, METTL3 promoted m6A modification of TAB3 and enhanced its stability via IGF2BP2-dependent mechanisms. Both pharmacological and genetic inhibition of METTL3 attenuated renal injury and inflammation, suggesting that the METTL3/TAB3 axis is a potential target for treatment of AKI.

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is an abundant modification on mRNA, and plays critical functions in various cellular processes, including cell fate determination and lineage transition. However, the landscape and dynamics of m6A modification in haematopoietic system remain unknown. Here, we delineate a comprehensive m6A landscape across haematopoietic hierarchy and uncover that IGF2BP2 is required for preserving haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) function. Our data reveal a marked cell-type- and haematopoietic-lineage-specific m6A landscape. Intriguingly, most m6A modifications arise in the early stat of haematopoiesis, and are critical in defining cellular states of HSCs. Moreover, m6A modification is the major factor in determining mRNA abundance in HSCs. Importantly, we find that higher expression of m6A reader IGF2BP2 is critical in controlling gene expression states and the functional maintenance of HSCs. IGF2BP2 deficiency induces apoptosis and quiescence loss, and substantially impairs the reconstitution capacity of HSCs. In addition, deletion of IGF2BP2 increases the mitochondrial activity of HSCs. Mechanistically, IGF2BP2 stabilizes Bmi1 mRNA in an m6A-dependent manner, which represses the expression of mitochondria-related genes. Collectively, our results present a fascinating portrait of m6A modification during haematopoiesis, and uncover a key role of IGF2BP2 in maintaining HSCs function by regulating Bmi1 stability and restraining mitochondrial activity.

Project description:N⁶-methyladenosine (m6A) and its reader, writer, and eraser (RWE) proteins assume crucial roles in regulating the splicing, stability, and translation of mRNA. To our knowledge, no systematic investigations have been conducted about the crosstalk between m6A and other modified nucleosides in RNA. Herein, we modified our recently established liquid chromatography-parallel-reaction monitoring (LC-PRM) method by incorporating stable isotope-labeled (SIL) peptides as internal or surrogate standards for profiling epitranscriptomic RWE proteins. We were able to detect reproducibly a total of 114 RWE proteins in HEK293T cells with the genes encoding m6A eraser proteins (i.e., ALKBH5, FTO) and the catalytic subunit of the major m6A writer complex (i.e., METTL3) being individually ablated. Notably, eight proteins were altered by more than 1.5-fold in the opposite directions in HEK293T cells depleted of METTL3 and ALKBH5. Analysis of published m6A mapping results revealed the presence of m6A in the corresponding mRNAs of four of these proteins. Together, we integrated SIL peptides into our LC-PRM method for quantifying epitranscriptomic RWE proteins, and our work revealed potential crosstalks between m6A and other epitranscriptomic modifications. Our modified LC-PRM method with the use of SIL peptides should be applicable for high-throughput profiling of epitranscriptomic RWE proteins in other cell types and in tissues.

Project description:The newly discovered dynamic N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification plays a critical role in gene expression from a post-transcriptional level. we profiled the transcriptome-wide m6A modification in mRNAs and lncRNAs in non-targeting control A375 cells(NC) and METTL3 knockdown A375 cells(shMETTL3). Methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing results revealed that the RNA m6A modification is conserved. METTL3 knockdown altered the expression of RNAs m6A modified sites in A375 cells. Finally, we show that the transcriptome-wide m6A alterations occurring in mRNAs and lncRNAs following METTL3 knockdown suggest this process plays important regulatory roles during A375 growth. This study provides a framework for applying the m6A modification regulated by METTL3 to melanoma research.

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent mRNA modification with diverse regulatory roles in mammalian cells. While its functions are well-documented in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs), its role in human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) remains to be fully explored. METTL3 is the main enzyme responsible for m6A deposition. Here, using a METTL3 inducible knockout (iKO) system, we uncovered that, unlike in mESCs, METTL3 was indispensable for hPSC maintenance. Importantly, loss of METTL3 caused significant upregulation of pluripotency factors including naïve pluripotency genes and failure to exit pluripotency, thus impaired stem cell differentiation towards embryonic and extraembryonic cells including trophoblasts. Mechanistically, METTL3 iKO in hPSCs substantially increased expression and enhancer activities of two primate-specific transposable elements (TEs), SVA_D and HERVK/LTR5_Hs, which are normally modified by METTL3-dependent m6A. METTL3 loss activated SVA_D by lowering H3K9me3 deposition, and increased chromatin accessibility at LTR5_Hs through the naïve and other pluripotency factors. Conversely, we discovered that the activated SVA_D and LTR5_Hs loci positively regulated naïve gene expression by directly interacted with their promoters. These findings thus reveal that METTL3-dependent m6A RNA methylation has critical roles in suppressing TE expression and in the human pluripotency regulatory network.
