M6A IP sequencing analysis of m6A mRNA methylation regulation by FTO in melanoma cells

ABSTRACT: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation is the most abundant internal chemical modifications in eukaryotic messenger RNA (mRNA) as well as long non-coding RNA (lncRNA). Recently, m6A RNA methylation research was revived by the discovery of the fat mass- and obesity-associated protein (FTO) as the first RNA demethylase, implicating that m6A RNA methylation is a reversible and dynamic modification and may have critical biological functions. Emerging evidence has shown that m6A modifications in mRNAs and lncRNAs play crucial roles in regulating RNA fate and function in biological processes in the past several years. As the first identified RNA demethylase that regulates the demethylation of target mRNAs, FTO has been reported to play an oncogenic role in leukemia and glioblastoma stem cells. To identify the target genes of FTO in melanoma cells, we used m6A IP seq coupled with RNA seq to determine the potential demethylation and gene targets across the whole transcriptome for FTO, and identified more than 1,000 genes.

The Obesity-associated Fto gene regulates activity of the dopaminergic midbrain circuitry [FTO KO]

Project description:Here we use MeRIP-Seq to analyze global adenosine methylation (m6A) in mRNAs in the midbrain and striatum of Fto-deficient mice. We find that Fto deficiency leads to increased methylation within a subset of mRNAs important for neuronal signaling, including many within the dopaminergic signaling pathway. Collectively, our results show that Fto regulates demethylation of specific mRNAs in vivo, and this activity relates to control of dopaminergic transmission.

FTO demethyltion of N6-methyladenosine depends on the RRACH motif [m6A-seq]

Project description:The fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) protein is a well-characterized demethylase that removes N6-methyladenosine (m6A) from animal mRNAs. However, it is unclear yet how the demethylation operates in living cells. In this study, we applied genome-wide approaches to study how FTO finds its demethylation targets in human cells. We overexpressed FTO in human HeLa cells, demonstrating that FTO effectively removes m6A from the RRACH motif enriched in the 3’UTR regions and leaves m6A at other motifs unaffected. RRACH elements are clearly enriched at FTO binding sites; however, m6A has a lower tendency to be removed from the FTO-bound RRACH. Taken together with the experimental validaton results, we propose a model in which FTO effectivly recognizes m6A-containing RRACH motifs in RNAs, leading to a faster demethylation and dissociation kinetic than the association, and consequently undectable FTO-mRNA association. However, when FTO binds to the non-m6A RRACH motif, the binding has a lower dissociation kinetics, yielding the detectable FTO binding signals which would enable FTO to have roles in regulating other mRNA processing events.

Exon junction complex shapes m6A epitranscriptome during splicing

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant post-transcriptional methylation of mature mRNA and plays a crucial regulatory role in various biological functions, involving development and cancer progression. m6A is deposited by methyltransferase complex composed of METTL3 and METTL14 cotranscriptionally, and removed by demethylase FTO or ALKBH5. m6A is highly enriched within the 3’ UTRs and in the vicinity of the stop codon of mature mRNA. However, the mechanism that causes this distribution pattern is still enigmatic. Here, we show that EJC packages mRNAs to shape mRNA m6A landscape. We first tested the possibility that demethylase removes m6A during spicing and found that ALKBH5 depletion had a minor effect on m6A levels. Thus, we ruled out the demethylation model. We then hypothesized that splicing factors inhibit the methylation process of internal exons, but not the 3’ UTR. Knockdown of EIF4A3, a core component of the exon junction complex, significantly increased m6A levels in mature mRNAs. The hypermethylated sites are enriched in short internal exons. Furthermore, EIF4A3 depletion upregulates METTL3 binding affinity to mRNA to deposit m6As. In conclusion, Our results demonstrate that EIF4A3 blocks METTL3 binding and methylating internal short exons of mRNA. These findings shed light on the fact that RNA packaging formed during splicing acts as a regulator that shapes mRNA modifications.

FTO mediates LINE1 m6A demethylation and chromatin regulation in mESCs and mouse tissues

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal modification in mammalian messenger RNA (mRNA). It is installed by writer proteins and can be reversed by erasers. FTO was the first RNA demethylase shown to catalyze oxidative demethylation of m6A in RNA. Despite extensive studies, the main physiological substrates of FTO and the related functional pathways remain elusive in many systems, in particular during early mammalian development. Here, we show that FTO mediates the m6A demethylation of chromosome-associated repeat RNAs in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs), especially the long-interspersed element-1 family (LINE1) RNA, thereby affecting their abundances to regulate chromatin state.

Differential m6A, m6Am, and m1A Demethylation Mediated by FTO in Cell Nucleus and Cytoplasm

Project description:FTO, the first RNA demethylase discovered, mediates the demethylation of N6-methyladenosine (m6A), installed internally on messenger RNA, and N6,2′-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am), occurring at the +1 position from the 5’ cap. Despite extensive recent research on FTO, its physiological impact on cellular processes has yet to be fully elucidated. Here, we demonstrate that the cellular distribution of FTO is distinct among different cell lines, which critically affects the access of FTO to different RNA substrates. FTO binds multiple RNA substrates, including mRNA, U6 RNA, and tRNA. It mainly targets internal m6A when located in the cell nucleus and preferentially demethylates m6Am when residing in the cytoplasm. The expression levels of transcripts containing internal m6A are associated with the alteration of the FTO more so than transcripts containing m6Am. We also discover that N1-methyladenosine (m1A) in tRNA is a main substrate of FTO, with the FTO-catalyzed demethylation of target tRNAs repressing protein synthesis. Collectively, FTO-mediated RNA demethylation affects both mRNA level and translation through distinct pathways.

A lncRNA from the FTO locus acts as an inhibitor of mRNA m6A methylation and p53 tumor suppression

Project description:The FTO gene locus has been linked to cancer and obesity through encoded N6-methyladenosine (m6A) demethylase FTO or inherited genomic variants (e.g. intronic single-nucleotide polymorphisms). Here we demonstrate that FTO-IT1, a long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) transcribed from a FTO gene intron, is upregulated during prostate cancer (PCa) progression and positively correlated with poor survival of patients with tumors only expressing wild-type p53. We show that RBM15, a mRNA/substrate binding subunit of the m6A methyltransferase complex binds and increases mRNA m6A methylation and stability of p53 transcriptional target genes; however, FTO-IT1 overexpression abolishes these effects by blocking RBM15 binding of p53 target gene mRNAs. Therapeutic targeting of FTO-IT1 restores mRNA m6A level and p53 signaling and inhibits PCa tumor growth in mice. Our study identifies FTO-IT1 lncRNA as a bono fide inhibitor of m6A methylation and p53 tumor suppression and nominates FTO-IT1 as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target of cancer.
