Widespread Cap-Unmethylated mRNAs Revealed by Metabolic Stress

ABSTRACT: RNA polymerase II transcripts are capped with N7-methylguanosine (m⁷G), a conserved modification essential for mRNA function. Although traditionally viewed as constitutive, we developed a mass spectrometry-based method to demonstrate that in both yeast and mammalian cells, a substantial population of mRNAs lack cap methylation in response to SAM-limiting conditions. Through developing two transcriptome-wide approaches, we found that methylation is enriched on specific transcripts and uncovered an unexpected connection between histone H3K36me3 and cap methylation. Remarkably, cap-unmethylated mRNAs exhibit features of canonical mRNAs—they are polyadenylated, exported to the cytosol, and translated. Enforced cap methylation reduces cell growth under SAM limitation, suggesting that unmethylated mRNAs confer an adaptive advantage during stress. These findings reveal mRNA cap methylation as a dynamic, regulated modification and a previously underappreciated layer of gene expression control.

Identification of potential readers for eukaryotic internal mRNA N7-methylguanosine (m7G) modification

Project description:The project aims to identify the RNA binding proteins that can specifically bind to mRNA internal modification N7-methylguanosine (m7G). N7-methylguanosine (m7G) methylation has been long identified as the essential cap modification for eukaryotic mRNA, but later has been identified internally in various types of RNAs, including tRNA, rRNA, miRNA, and mRNA. While the METTL1/WDR4 complex, responsible for tRNA m7G installation, has been suggested to be responsible for internal mRNA modification as well, little is known about the proteins that can identify and interact with m7G. To better understand its interaction with RNA binding proteins and further define its regulatory function in mRNA metabolism, we performed the experiment to pulldown proteins with different binding affinity on unmodified G and m7G and subject the enriched fractions to mass spectrometry.

Cap-specific terminal N6-methylation of RNA by an RNA polymerase II-associated methyltransferase.

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A), a major modification of messenger RNAs (mRNAs), plays critical roles in RNA metabolism and function. In addition to the internal m6A, N6, 2'-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am) is present at the transcription start nucleotide of capped mRNAs in vertebrates. However, its biogenesis and functional role remain elusive. Using a reverse genetics approach, we identified PCIF1, a factor that interacts with the serine-5-phosphorylated carboxyl-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II, as a cap-specific adenosine methyltransferase (CAPAM) responsible for N6-methylation of m6Am. The crystal structure of CAPAM in complex with substrates revealed the molecular basis of cap-specific m6A formation. A transcriptome-wide analysis revealed that N6-methylation of m6Am promotes the translation of capped mRNAs. Thus, a cap-specific m6A writer promotes translation of mRNAs starting from m6Am.

Landscape of RNA NAD+ capping in Arabidopsis unopened flower bud

Project description:Eukaryotic messenger RNAs (mRNAs) possess a 5’-end N7-methyl guanosine (m7G) cap that promotes their translation and stability. However, it was recently demonstrated that eukaryotic mRNAs can also carry a 5' end nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) cap that promotes mRNA decay mediated by the NAD+ decapping enzyme DXO1. However, the dynamic regulation of NAD+ capping in plant remains unknown. Here, we describe the global landscape of NAD+-capped RNAs in Arabidopsis thaliana, and demonstrate that DXO1 is responsible for removal of these 5’-end modifications and facilitates mRNA degradation in plant transcriptomes. We also reveal that in the absence of DXO1 NAD+-capped mRNAs are unstable and processed into smRNAs. Furthermore, we find that Abscisic Acid (ABA) remodel the landscape of RNA cap epitransciptome, and the mRNA lost their NAD+ cap contribute to their stability under ABA. Overall, our results support a link between ABA response and RNA NAD+ capping.

Part 2 JAWS; 2'-O-methylation of the second transcribed nucleotide in eukaryotic RNA 5’ cap impacts protein production levels and susceptibility to DXO-mediated transcript degradation

Project description:Eukaryotic mRNA 5’ end is decorated with cap structure which plays multiple roles in the cell. Most importantly, protects transcript from exonucleolytic degradation and enables translation of encoded protein conducted by cap-dependent machinery. This is also a key feature in the process of recognizing RNA as self or non-self molecule by cellular innate immune system. Cap is composed of 7-methylguanosine linked by a 5′,5′-triphosphate chain to the first transcribed nucleotide, and is formed enzymatically during transcription. This m7GpppN structure, called cap0, can be further modified by CMTR1 methyltransferase to cap1 (m7GpppNm), which predominates in eukaryotic cells. Cap2, with additional 2′-O-methylation at the second transcribed nucleotide (m7GpppNmpNm) added by another methyltransferase CMTR2, also can be found at mRNA 5’ end. We present new tools allowing for in vitro synthesis of RNAs possessing cap2, i.e tetranucleotide cap analogues. Utilizing these for in vitro transcription reactions we obtained RNAs with 2′-O-methylation present at the second transcribed nucleotide. Due to that we investigated the role of cap2 in protein production from reporter mRNA protected with this structure in different conditions, normal or stress ones, or with CMTR1/2 down regulated level. We also assessed the affinity of eIF4E protein to differentially capped RNAs. Furthermore, we verified whether an additional 2′-O-methylation presence in capped RNA makes transcript more resistant to decapping enzyme action.

CEG1 DEPLETION REVEALS MECHANISMS GOVERNING DEGRADATION OF NON-CAPPED RNAs

Project description:All eukaryotic mRNAs contain a 7-methylguanosine (m7G) cap which serves as a platform that recruits proteins to support essential biological functions such as mRNA processing, nuclear export and cap-dependent translation. Although the caping is one of the first steps of transcription and uncapped mRNA is not functional, the fate and turnover of uncapped transcripts have not been studied extensively. Here, we employed fast nuclear depletion of the capping enzymes in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae to uncover the turnover of transcripts that failed to be capped. We found that the degradation of non-capped mRNA is mainly performed by Xrn1, the exonuclease which is predominantly localized in the cytoplasm, and the fate of such transcripts is determined principally by the abundance of their synthesis. Nuclear depletion of the capping enzymes increased the levels of poorly expressed mRNAs and non-coding RNAs and did not affect the distribution of RNA Polymerase II on chromatin. Overall, our data indicate that mRNAs that failed to be capped are not directed to any specific quality-control pathway and are stochastically degraded.

Presence of NAD+-capped RNA in human cells: function and removal by the DXO deNADing Protein

Project description:Eukaryotic mRNAs generally possess an N7 methyl guanosine cap at their 5? end to promote their translation and stability. Here we demonstrate mammalian mRNAs can carry a 5'-end nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) cap. We further demonstrate fungal and mammalian noncanonical DXO family of decapping enzymes can efficiently remove NAD+ caps from mRNAs in vitro and cocrystal structures of DXO with 3´ phosphate NAD+ illuminates the molecular mechanism for the “deNADing” reaction. An NAD+ cap promotes mRNA decay in wild type mammalian cells and confers mRNA stability in the absence of DXO. Importantly, mammalian cells possess a capping mechanism that NAD+ caps a subset of intronic small nucleolar RNAs that are selectively enriched in DXO deficient cells. Our data establish NAD+ as a bona fide mammalian RNA cap and identifies the DXO proteins as potent deNADing enzymes that modulate the levels of NAD+-capped RNAs in cells.

Transcriptome-Wide Analysis of the 5' Cap Status of RNA Using 5' Monophosphate-Dependent Exonuclease Digestion and RNA Sequencing

Project description:Eukaryotic mRNAs carry an N7-methylguanosine (m7G) cap structure at their 5' extremity, which protects them from the degradation by 5'-3' exoribonucleases and plays a pivotal role in mRNA metabolism, promoting splicing, nuclear export, and translation. Decapping, the enzymatic process that removes this structure, is a key event during cytoplasmic mRNA 5'-3' decay, leading to the degradation of the transcript body by Xrn1. In this chapter, we describe a procedure to assess the cap status of RNA at the transcriptome level. It is based on a treatment of total RNA extracts with a 5' monophosphate-dependent exonuclease, which like Xrn1 specifically degrades decapped RNAs harboring 5' monophosphate extremities, but not RNAs with intact m7G cap. The digested RNAs are then analyzed by RNA sequencing.
