Project description:Pseudouridylation (Ψ) is the most abundant and widespread type of RNA epigenetic modification in living organisms; however, the biological role of Ψ remains poorly understood. Here, we show that a Ψ-driven posttranscriptional program steers translation control to impact stem cell commitment during early embryogenesis. Mechanistically, the Ψ ‘writer’ PUS7 modifies and activates a network of tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs) targeting the translation initiation complex. PUS7 inactivation in embryonic stem cells impairs tRF-mediated translational regulation leading to increased protein biosynthesis and abnormal germ layer specification. Remarkably, dysregulation of PUS7 and tRFs in myeloid malignancies associates with altered translation rates, suggesting a role of Ψ in leukemogenesis. Our findings unveil a critical function of Ψ in directing translational control in stem cells with important implications for human disease.

Project description:Pseudouridylation (pseudouridine) is the most abundant and widespread type of RNA epigenetic modification in living organisms; however, the biological role of pseudouridine remains poorly understood. Here, we show that a pseudouridine-driven posttranscriptional program steers translation control to impact stem cell commitment during early embryogenesis. Mechanistically, the pseudouridine ‘writer’ PUS7 modifies and activates a network of tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs) targeting the translation initiation complex. PUS7 inactivation in embryonic stem cells impairs tRF-mediated translational regulation leading to high protein biosynthesis and abnormal germ layer specification. Dysregulation of PUS7 and tRFs in myeloid malignancies associates with altered translation rates, suggesting a role of pseudouridine in tumorigenesis. Our findings unveil a critical function of pseudouridine in directing translational control in stem cells with promisingly broad implications for human disease.

Project description:Transfer RNA (tRNA)-derived fragments (tRF) are emerging small noncoding (nc) RNAs that, while commonly altered in cancer, have poorly defined roles in tumorigenesis. Here we show that pseudouridylation (Ψ) of a stem-cell-enriched tRF subtype, mTOG, selectively inhibits malignant protein synthesis programs, thereby promoting engraftment and differentiation of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC). Building on evidence that mTOG-Ψ target the polyadenylate-binding protein cytoplasmic 1 (PABPC1), we employed HDX-MS to reveal critical interactions between mTOG and functional RNA-recognition motif (RRM) domains in PABPC1. Mechanistically, this hinders the recruitment of the translational co-activator PABPC1-interacting protein 1 (PAIP1) and strongly represses translation of transcripts sharing 5’UTR pyrimidine-enriched sequences (PES), including 5’ terminal oligopyrimidine tracts (TOP) that encode protein machinery components, and are frequently altered in cancer. Significantly, mTOG dysregulation leads to aberrantly increased 5’PES mRNA translation in malignant MDS-HSPC and is clinically associated with leukemic transformation and reduced patient survival. Taken together, these results define a critical role for tRF and Ψ in difficult-to-treat subsets of MDS characterized by high risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia.

Project description:Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are exceptionally subject to modifications, including methylation. While mRNA methylation is emerging as an important regulator of biological and pathological processes in cancer, how post-transcriptional methylation of tRNAs contributes to cancer is largely unknown. Here we show that the RNA N7-methylguanosine (m7G) methyltransferase METTL1 is highly differentially expressed in prostate cancer compared to non-tumour prostate tissues. METTL1 expression regulation is mediated under the oncogenic PI3K-PTEN pathway. Knockdown of METTL1 dramatically inhibits prostate cancer cell growth and tumour progression in vivo. In contrast, overexpression of the wild type but not the catalytically inactive METTL1 potentiates cell growth. Thus, METTL1-mediated methylation is important for prostate tumorigenesis. Mechanistically we find that METTL1 depletion causes loss of m7G tRNA methylation and increases endonucleolytic cleavage of tRNA leading to an accumulation of 5′ tRNA-derived small RNA fragments. 5′ tRNA-derived fragments steer translation control to favour synthesis of key regulators of tumour growth suppression and immune rejection. In summary, our findings uncover a critical function of m7G tRNA methylation in directing translation control in cancer cells with important implications for tumour growth and unveil METTL1 inhibition as a promising anti-cancer therapeutic strategy.

Project description:Transfer-RNA-Derived Small RNA (tsRNA) is a novel class of short non-coding RNA including stress-induced tRNA fragments (tiRNA) and tRNA-derived fragments (tRF). Using RNA sequencing, we evaluated the tsRNA expression profiles in the serum of sarcoidosis (n = 3) compared with healthy control group (n = 3). Bioinformatics analyses indicated that tsRNAs were the important regulators and potential new biomarkers of sarcoidosis.
