Project description:We generated a map of NSUN6-dependent RNA 5 methyl-cytosine in the human transcriptome by applying RNA bisulfite conversion and sequencing to two sets of cell lines (HUES9 and HEK293) where the RNA cytosine 5 methyl-transfearse NSUN6 has been either knocked out by CRISPR Cas9 or overexpressed using a PiggyBac vector. We apply this and other molecular methods to validate NSUN6 RNA methylation targets with single nucelotide resolution in the human transcriptome.

Project description:<p>Mutations in the cytosine-5 RNA methyltransferase NSun2 can cause neurodevelopmental disorders and symptoms commonly found in patients with Dubowitz-like syndrome. Some tRNAs are known to be methylated NSun2, however the occurrence of cytosine-5 methylation (m<sup>5</sup>C) in other RNA biotypes is still under debate. Location in RNA and function of m<sup>5</sup>C has not been studied yet. This study is aimed at identifying new m<sup>5</sup>C methylated RNA biotypes, as well as the location at specific structures or sequences and the ultimate biological function. The impact of the loss of NSun2-mediated methylation is also determined by comparing gene expression data with the global cytosine-5 RNA methylome in Dubowitz-like syndrome patients. We also use ribosomal profiling to assess the impact of the loss and rescue of Nsun2-mediated cytosine-5 RNA methylation on translation rates and ribosome occupancy.</p>

Project description:Malaria parasites have evolved a well-adjusted developmental program to progress through the complex life cycle in the human and mosquito host. Here we identify cytosine methylation of tRNAAsp (GTC) as being critical to maintain stable protein synthesis under cellular stress. Using conditional knock out of a member of the DNA methyltransferases family called Pf-DNMT2, RNA bisulfite sequencing demonstrates the selective cytosine methylation of this enzyme of tRNAAsp (GTC) at position C38. Although no growth defect on parasite asexual proliferation was observed, Pf-DNMT2 KO parasites show a striking increase in their sexual commitment and an increased sensitivity to Dihydroartemisinin. In mutant parasites we observe a dramatic decrease of tRNAAsp (GTC) when compared to non-stressed parasites and mass spectrometry analysis shows the selective downregulation of proteins with GAC codon bias. Here we identify an epitranscriptomic mechanism that safeguards protein translation and homeostasis of sexual commitment during cellular stress in malaria parasites

Project description:DNA methylation plays important roles in foreign DNA defense, mismatch repair, and gene regulation in prokaryotic genomes. Existing methods for DNA methylation detection using next-generation sequencing (NGS) are incapable of simultaneously detecting multiple types of DNA methylation. Here, we present nitrite treatment followed by sequencing (NT-seq), a sequencing method to simultaneously detect adenine and cytosine methylation. We demonstrated that NT-seq reliably detects three types of methylation motifs in E. coli and H. pylori genomes. We further applied NT-seq to a microbial community standard for de novo methylation motif discovery. Finally, by coupling methyl DNA immunoprecipitation and NT-seq (DIP-NT-seq), we showed that 6mA could be accurately mapped at single-base resolution in the bacterial and eukaryotic genomes. NT-seq thus provides a simple and reliable solution for detecting multiple types of DNA methylations.

Project description:Mutations in the cytosine-5 RNA methyltransferase NSun2 can cause Intellectual Disability (ID) and symptoms commonly found in patients with Dubowitz syndrome. By analysing gene expression data with the global cytosine-5 RNA methylome in NSun2-deficient mice, we find that loss of cytosine-5 RNA methylation increases the fragmentation of transfer RNAs (tRNA) leading to an accumulation of 5M-bM-^@M-^Y halves. Cleavage of tRNAs by Angiogenin is a common cellular stress response to silence translational programmes, and we show that Angiogenin binds tRNAs lacking site-specific NSun2-methylation with higher affinity. Furthermore, cells lacking functional NSun2 up-regulate stress markers, and deletion of NSun2 compromises cellular survival in response stress stimuli including UV-light and oxidative stress. The decreased tolerance of NSun2 null cells towards oxidative stress can be rescued through inhibition of Angiogenin. In conclusion, cytosine-5 RNA methylation is an essential post-transcriptional mechanism during cellular stress responses and NSun2-mediated tRNA methylation protects from Angiogenin-dependent stress-induced RNA cleavage.

Project description:Autosomal-recessive loss of the NSUN2 gene has been recently identified as a causative link to intellectual disability disorders in humans. NSun2 is an RNA methyltransferase modifying cytosine-5 in transfer RNAs (tRNA). Whether NSun2 methylates additional RNA species is currently debated. Here, we adapted the individual-nucleotide resolution UV cross-linking and immunoprecipitation method (iCLIP) to identify NSun2-mediated methylation in RNA transcriptome. We confirm site-specific methylation in tRNA and identify messenger and non-coding RNAs as potential methylation targets for NSun2. Using RNA bisulfite sequencing we establish Vault non-coding RNAs as novel substrates for NSun2 and identified six cytosine-5 methylated sites. Furthermore, we show that loss of cytosine-5 methylation in Vault RNAs causes aberrant processing into argonaute-associating small RNA fragments (svRNA). Thus, impaired Vault non-coding RNA processing may be an important contributor to the etiology of NSUN2-deficieny human disorders. mRNA-seq in Embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells transfected with siRNA against Nsun2 vs control
