Project description:The m6A methylation pathway has previously been shown to influence pluripotency. YTHDF2 is an RNA binding protein that interacts with m6A-modified RNAs to facilitate their degradation. We sought to identify the cohort of RNAs targeted by YTHDF2 in human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC).

Project description:We report the m6A methylation maps of zebrafish embryos during early development, and transcriptome-wide changes occured in ythdf2 LOF mutant embryos. Our study reveals the m6A-dependent RNA decay as a previously unidentified maternal mode mechanism to regulate maternal mRNA clearance during zebrafish MZT, highlighting the critical role of the m6A mRNA methylation in animal development.

Project description:Dynamic N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification was previously identified as a ubiquitous post-transcriptional regulation that affected mRNA homeostasis. However, the m6A-related epitranscriptomic alterations and functions remain elusive in human diseases such as cancer. Here we show that hypoxia regulates the ‘reader’ protein YTH domain family 2 (YTHDF2), to eventually stabilize the methylated oncogene mRNAs in inflammation-associated liver cancer. YTHDF2 silenced in human cancer cells or depleted in mouse hepatocytes evoked pro-inflammatory responses and accelerated tumor growth and metastatic progression. Under hypoxia, YTHDF2 processed the decay of m6A-containing interleukin 11 (IL11) and serpin family E member 2 (SERPINE2) mRNAs, which were responsible for the inflammation-mediated malignancy. Reciprocally, YTHDF2 transcription succumbed to hypoxia-inducible factor-2α (HIF-2α). Administration of a HIF-2α antagonist (PT2385) restored YTHDF2-programed epigenetic machinery and repressed liver cancer. Hence, our findings provide a new insight into the mechanism by which hypoxia adapts m6A-mRNA editing to promote cancer.

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent internal modification present in the mRNA of all higher eukaryotes. Here we present that m6A is selectively recognized by human YTH domain family (YTHDF2) protein to regulate mRNA degradation. By using crosslinking and immunoprecipitation, we have identified over 4000 substrate RNA of YTHDF2 with conserved core motif of G(m6A)C. We further estabilshed the role of YTHDF2 in RNA metabolism by a combination of ribosome profiling, RNA sequencing, m6A level quantification and cell-based imaging: the C-terminal domain of YTHDF2 selectively binds to m6A of mRNA and the N-terminal domain is responsive for localizing mRNA from translatable pool to processing body where mRNA decay occurs. PAR-CLIP and RIP was used to identify YTHDF2 binding sites followed by ribosome profling and RNA seq to assess the consequences of YTHDF2 siRNA knock-down

Project description:Glioblastoma is a universally lethal cancer driven by glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs). Here, we interrogated N6-methyladenosine (m6A) mRNA modifications in GSCs by methyl RNA-immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (meRIP-seq) and transcriptome analysis, finding transcripts marked by m6A often upregulated. Interrogating m6A regulators, GSCs displayed preferential expression as well as in vitro and in vivo dependency of the m6A reader, YTHDF2, in contrast to normal neural stem cells (NSCs). While YTHDF2 has been reported to destabilize mRNAs, YTHDF2 stabilized the oncogene transcripts, MYC and VEGFA, in GSCs in an m6A-dependent manner. We identified IGFBP3 as a downstream effector of the YTHDF2-MYC axis in GSCs and IGF1/IGF1R inhibitor, Linsitinib, as preferentially targeting YTHDF2-expressing cells, inhibiting the viability of GSCs without affecting NSCs and impairing in vivo glioblastoma growth. Thus, YTHDF2 links RNA epitranscriptomic modifications and GSC growth, laying the foundation for the YTHDF2-MYC-IGFBP3 axis as a specific and novel therapeutic target in glioblastoma.

Project description:The B cell to plasma cell transition relies on the coordinated remodelling of the gene expression program. We performed a CRISPR/Cas9 knockout screen of RNA binding proteins to identify post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression during the B cell terminal differentiation. The m6A binding protein YTHDF2 was identified as promoting B cell terminal differentiation. In the absence of YTHDF2 the germinal centre reaction is broadly intact, however, plasma cells fail to accumulate. YTHDF2 has previously been shown to mediate RNA decay through the recruitment of the CCR4-NOT deadenylase machinery. Furthermore, our genetic screen in B cells identified that other CCR4-NOT recruitment factors inhibit rather than promote differentiation. Thus, the CCR4-NOT complex coordinates competing regulatory pathways of B cell differentiation at the post-transcriptional level.

Project description:The m6A modification regulates mRNA stability and translation. Here we show that transcriptomic m6A modification is dynamic and the m6A reader protein YTHDF2 promotes mRNA decay during the cell cycle. Depletion of YTHDF2 leads to the delay of mitotic entry due to overaccumulation of WEE1, a negative regulator of CDK1. We demonstrate that WEE1 transcripts contain m6A modification, which promotes their decay through the m6A reader YTHDF2. Moreover, we found that YTHDF2 protein stability is dependent on CDK1 activity. Thus, CDK1, YTHDF2, and WEE1 form a feedforward regulatory loop to promote mitotic entry. We further identified CUL1, CUL4A, DDB1, and SKP2 as components of E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes that mediate YTHDF2 proteolysis. Our study provides insights into how cell cycle mediators modulate transcriptomic m6A modification, which in turn regulates the cell cycle.

Project description:The mRNA m6A reader YTHDF2 is overexpressed in a broad spectrum of human acute myeloid leukemias (AML). To study the role of YTHDF2 on mRNA decay rates in leukemia, c-Kit+ cells from foetal livers of Ythdf2fl/fl; Vav-iCre (Ythdf2CKO) and Ythdf2fl/fl (Ythdf2CTL) 14.5 dpc embryos were transduced with Meis1 and Hoxa9 oncogenes and serially re-plated to generate pre-leukemic cells. Medium with 4SU was used for pre-leukemic cells labelling for 12 hours and was later replaced with 4SU-free medium (time 0). Cells were collected immediately after medium change and at 1, 3 and 9 hours for library generation. RNA from Ythdf2CKO (n=3 biological replicates) and Ythdf2CTL (n=3 biological replicates) pre-leukemic cells were used for SLAM-seq library generation.
