Mettl14 and Mettl3 work cooperatively to regulate retinal development

ABSTRACT: N6-methylenadenosine (m6A) modification, the most abundant epitranscriptomic modification in eukaryotic mRNAs, has been shown to play crucial roles in regulating various aspects of mRNA metabolism and functions. In this study, we applied the Cre-Loxp conditional knockout system to investigate the role of core component of the m6A methyltransferase complex, METTL14 and METTL3, in retinal development. Our results showed that double absence of Mettl14 and Mettl3 caused structural disturbance in the retina and prolonged proliferation activity of retinal progenitor cells. Interestingly, this did not affect the generation of various retinal cells, but this severely disrupted their distribution. In addition, double deletion of Mettl14 together with Mettl3 caused a stronger phenotype than the Mettl14 single deletion. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that Mettl14 and Mettl3 work cooperatively to regulate retinal development, and that this basis of regulation is mainly dependent on m6A modification.

Cancer Mutations Rewire the RNA Methylation Specificity of METTL3-METTL14

Project description:Chemical modification of RNAs is important for post-transcriptional gene regulation. The METTL3-METTL14 complex generates most N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modifications in mRNAs, and dysregulated methyltransferase expression has been linked to numerous cancers. Here we show that m6A modification location, rather than the overall modification level, can impact oncogenesis. A gain-of-function missense mutation found in cancer patients, METTL14R298P, promotes malignant cell growth in culture and in transgenic mice. The mutant methyltransferase preferentially modifies noncanonical sites and transforms gene expression without increasing global m6A levels in mRNAs. The altered substrate specificity is intrinsic to METTL3-METTL14, helping us to propose a structural model for how the METTL3-METTL14 complex detects RNA sequences. Together, our work highlights that m6A location is important for function and that noncanonical methylation sites may impact aberrant gene expression and oncogenesis.

Primarily Dissecting the Autonomous and Cooperative Functions of METTL3 and METTL14 in mRNA Modification and Tumor Progression

Project description:METTL3 and METTL14 are considered to faithfully form the m6A writing complex in a 1:1 ratio, regulating the fate of mRNA by adding m6A modifications. However, recent studies have shown inconsistent expression and prognostic value of METTL3 and METTL14 in some tumors, suggesting that they may not be faithful in tumors. Pan-cancer analysis based on TCGA data reveals significant differences in expression, function, tumor burden correlation, and immune correlation between METTL3 and METTL14, especially in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Knockdown of METTL3 significantly inhibits the cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo in ESCC EC109 cells, while the impact of METTL14 knockdown on proliferation is limited, and it cannot abolish the expression of METTL3 protein. mRNA-seq results indicate that METTL3 independently regulates the expression of 1615 genes, while only 776 genes are co-regulated by METTL3 and METTL14. Furthermore, through immunofluorescence co-localization, it is observed that METTL3 and METTL14 have certain inconsistencies in cellular localization. HPLC-MS results show that METTL3 independently binds to the Nop56p-associated pre-rRNA complex and mRNA splicing complex, separate from METTL14. Through bioinformatics and various omics studies, we have preliminarily discovered that METTL3 independently regulating tumor cell proliferation, and the participation in mRNA splicing may be a critical molecular mechanism. Our study provides an experimental basis and theoretical foundation for further understanding of the m6A writing complex and tumor therapy targeting METTL3.

Roles of Mettl14 in mouse limb bud development

Project description:m6A regulates virtually every step in RNA metabolism. However, its toles in limb development remains largely unknown. To understand the roles, we created a limb bud-specific conditional knockout (cKO) mice and control heterozygous (cHet) mice of the Mettl14 gene, which encodes an essential subunit in the m6A methyltransferase complex METTL3/METTL14. We harvested limb buds from the mice on E12.5 and applied the proteins to quantitative mass spectrometry to understand how the depletion of Mettl14 affected the proteomes.

m6A independent genome-wide METTL3 and METTL14 redistribution drives senescence-associated secretory phenotype [rna.M3]

Project description:Methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) and 14 (METTL14) are core subunits of the methyltransferase complex (MTC) that catalyzes mRNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification. Despite the expanding list of m6A-dependent function of the MTC, m6A independent function of the METTL3 and METTL14 complex remains poorly understood. Here we show that genome-wide redistribution of METTL3 and METTL14 drives senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) in a m6A-independent manner. METTL3 and METTL14 are necessary for SASP. However, SASP is not regulated by m6A mRNA modification. METTL14 is redistributed to the enhancers, while METTL3 is localized to the pre-existing NF-B sites within the promoters of the SASP genes during senescence. METTL3 interacts with NF-B and they are mutually dependent on their associations with the promoters of SASP genes. METTL14 but not METTL3 is necessary for function of SASP gene enhancers. METTL3 and METTL14 are required for both the tumor-promoting and immune surveillance functions of senescent cells mediated by SASP in vivo in mouse models. In summary, our results report a m6A independent function of the METTL3 and METTL14 complex in promoting SASP through regulating transcription by genome-wide redistribution of METTL14 to enhancers and METTL3 to promoters of SASP genes during senescence.

Mettl3-/Mettl14-mediated mRNA N6-methyladenosine modulates murine spermatogenesis

Project description:Spermatogenesis is precisely controlled at the transcriptional, posttranscriptional, and translational levels. Here we report that N6-methyladenosine (m6A), an epitranscriptomic mark regulating gene expression, plays essential roles during spermatogenesis. We present comprehensive m6A mRNA methylomes of mouse spermatogenic cells from five developmental stages: undifferentiated spermatogonia, type A1 spermatogonia, preleptotene spermatocytes, pachytene/diplotene spermatocytes, and round spermatids. Germ cell-specific inactiva- tion of the m6A RNA methyltransferase Mettl3 or Mettl14 with Vasa-Cre causes loss of m6A and depletion of SSCs. m6A depletion dysregulates translation of transcripts that are required for SSC proliferation/differentiation. Com- bined deletion of Mettl3 and Mettl14 in advanced germ cells with Stra8-GFPCre disrupts spermiogenesis, whereas mice with single deletion of either Mettl3 or Mettl14 in advanced germ cells show normal spermatogenesis. The sper- matids from double-mutant mice exhibit impaired translation of haploid-specific genes that are essential for spermio- genesis. This study highlights crucial roles of mRNA m6A modification in germline development, potentially ensuring coordinated translation at different stages of spermatogenesis.
