Site-specific cytosine-5 methylation by the mouse RNA methyltransferases Dnmt2 and NSun2 promotes tRNA stability and protein synthesis

ABSTRACT: Mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEFs) cell lines and liver samples from Dnmt2 and Nsun2 single mutant, double mutant and wildtype mice were used to identify potential mRNA substrates of both proteins. MEFs were derived from day 13.5 embryos and immortalized by transfection with a plasmid expressing the SV40 large-T antigen. Total RNA of MEFs cell line at passage 9 and total RNA extracted from 2 months old mouse liver tissues of Dnmt2, Nsun2 single mutant, double mutant and wildtype mice were arrayed on Illumina MouseRef8 v2 chips.

The mouse cytosine-5 RNA methyltransferase NSun2 is a component of the chromatoid body and required for testis differentiation

Project description:Post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms are crucial for protein synthesis during spermatogenesis and often organized by the chromatoid body. Chromatoid bodies are large cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein granules, whose precise function and composition remain unclear. Here, we identify NSun2 as a novel component of the chromatoid body, and further show that this RNA methylase is essential for germ cell differentiation in the mouse testis. Lack of NSun2 leads to down-regulation of genes controlling RNA processing and post-transcriptional repression pathways, including Ddx4, Mili, Piwil1 (Miwi) and Tudor domain containing (Tdrd) proteins. Germ cell differentiation was blocked specifically at the pachytene stage by lack of NSun2, as spermatogonial and Sertoli cells were unaffected in knockout mice. We observed the same phenotype when we simultaneously deleted NSun2 with Dnmt2, the only other characterized cytosine-5 RNA methyltransferase to date, indicating that Dnmt2 was not functionally redundant for NSun2 in spermatogonial stem cells or Sertoli cells. Thus, our data indicate that RNA methylation pathways play an essential role in male germ cell differentiation. Four sample groups: Testes from Wild-type and NSun2 knock out mice at 15 and 49 days; 6 samples in each group

RNA bisulfite sequencing of candidate tRNAs in Drosophila melanogaster

Project description:Dnmt2 and NSun2 are (cytosine-5) RNA methyltransferases. Using CRISPR/Cas9 we created null mutations in Dnmt2 and NSun2 genes in Drosophila melanogaster. We also ectopically expressed a wild type and catalytically inactive Dnmt2 form in the Dnmt2 mutant background. RNA bisulfite sequencing was used to follow RNA methylation at partical tRNA substrates.

High-throughput sequencing of small RNAs (25-70 nt) from Drosophila wild-type and Dnmt2 mutants

Project description:Dnmt2 genes are highly conserved tRNA methyltransferases with biological roles in cellular stress responses. The absence of obvious mutant phenotypes under laboratory conditions suggested a function for Dnmt2 under non-physiological conditions. Indeed, Dnmt2 has recently been implicated in various aspects of the cellular stress response and the tRNA methyltransferase activity of Dnmt2 has been shown to interfere with stress-induced fragmentation of various tRNAs. We used adult animals and small RNA sequencing during a heat stress experiment to determine the tRNA fragment abundance and identities in wild-type and Dnmt2 mutant somatic tissues. Dnmt2 mutants produced tRNA fragments with different identities when compared to wild-type controls, indicating the accumulation of non-physiological tRNA-derived molecules in tissues without Dnmt2.

Dnmt2-dependent methylomes lack biologically relevant DNA methylation patterns

Project description:Several organisms belonging to diverse animal groups have retained Dnmt2 as their only bona fide DNA methyltransferase gene. However, recent studies have shown that Dnmt2 functions as a tRNA methyltransferase, which prompted us to analyze the methylomes of Dnmt2-only organisms at single-base resolution. Using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing we show here that the genomes of Schistosoma mansoni and Drosophila melanogaster lack detectable DNA methylation patterns. Residual unconverted cytosine residues shared many attributes with bisulfite deamination artifacts and were observed at comparable levels in a Dnmt2-deficient fly strain. Furthermore, genetically modified mouse embryonic stem cells that had retained Dnmt2 as their only bona fide DNA methyltransferase gene, did not show any detectable DNA methylation patterns. Our results thus uncover fundamental differences among animal methylomes and suggest that Dnmt2-only organisms lack biologically relevant DNA methylation patterns.

Neuronal Nsun2 deficiency is associated with codon-specific epitranscriptomic dysregulation of Gly-tRNAs and corresponding proteomic shift impacting synaptic signaling and behavior

Project description:The role of transfer (t)RNA cytosine methyl-transferases as epitranscriptomic regulators of brain proteomes remains unexplored. We report that fear memory and antidepressant-like behaviors are highly sensitive to bi-directional changes in Nsun2 tRNA methyltransferase activity in prefrontal cortex (PFC) neurons. Nsun2-deficient mutant cortex showed a selective deficit in multiple glycine tRNAs, resulting in codon-specific shifts in translational efficiencies and a distorted proteomic landscape with deficits in glycine-rich neuronal proteins impacting synaptic signaling and behavior.
