Methylation of structured RNA by the m6A writer METTL16 is essential for mouse embryonic development

ABSTRACT: Internal modification of RNAs with N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a highly conserved and widely used means of gene expression control. METTL16 is an m6A writer but how it recognizes its RNA targets and its physiological roles remain unknown. Here we describe the crystal structure of human METTL16 to reveal a classical methyltransferase domain but with an extra N-terminal module that is essential for catalysis. Together, they form a deep-cut groove lined by highly conserved positively charged residues that are essential for RNA binding and methylation activity. When given a random pool of RNAs, METTL16 selects structured RNAs for m6A methylation. We demonstrate that mouse Mettl16 is essential for early embryonic development, and acts via regulation of the SAM synthetase Mat2a mRNA. Our results highlight the pivotal role of an m6A RNA methyltransferase in facilitating early developmental decisions via regulation of SAM availability.

The U6 snRNA m6A methyltransferase METTL16 regulates SAM synthetase intron retention

Project description:Maintenance of the intracellular levels of the methyl donor S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) is essential for a wide variety of biological processes. We demonstrate that the N6-adenosine methyltransferase METTL16 regulates expression of MAT2A, which encodes the only SAM synthetase expressed in most cells. Upon SAM depletion by methionine starvation, cells induce MAT2A expression by enhanced splicing of a retained intron. Induction requires METTL16 and its methylation substrate, a vertebrate conserved hairpin (hp1) in the MAT2A 3´ UTR. Increasing METTL16 occupancy on the MAT2A 3´ UTR is sufficient to induce efficient splicing. We propose that under SAM-limiting conditions, METTL16 occupancy on hp1 increases due to inefficient enzymatic turnover, which in turn promotes MAT2A splicing. Interestingly, human and S. pombe METTL16 methylate the U6 spliceosomal snRNA at a sequence identical to hp1. These observations suggest that the conserved U6 snRNA methyltransferase evolved an additional function in vertebrates to regulate SAM homeostasis.

RNA Methyltransferase METTL16’s Protein Domains Have Differential Functional Effects on Cell Processes

Project description:METTL16, a human m6A RNA methyltransferase, contains multiple RNA binding domains and is known to modify U6 and MAT2A RNAs. Usingmutagensis, we generated HEK293 cell lines stabling expressing nutated or WT forms of METTL16 to dtermine the imapct these mutations have on cell processes after removal of endogenous METTL16. We performed bottom-up, untargeted data dependent proteomics analysison all five cell lines to determine the global changes in peptide/protein abdundances; we identified 200-300 statistically significant altered proteinscompared to the wild-type exogenous METTL16 clone.

Identifying interaction proteins of METTL16 using co immunoprecipitation and mass spectroscopy

Project description:METTL16 has recently been identified as an RNA methyltransferase that installs m6A marks on a few transcripts. But its function in cytosol remains unclear. Puromycin-labelling and renilla luciferase assay revealed that METTL16 can promote translation efficiency in an m6A-independent manner. To explore the mechanism, we performed co-immunoprecipitation using METTL16 antibody and mass spectroscopy to identify its interaction proteins. Moreover, we find that METTL16 is essential for tumorigenesis of non-small cell lung cancer.

RNA-seq in wild-type, METTL16-knockout, and METTL16 rescue NOMO-1 cells

Project description:METTL16 belongs to methyltransferase like (METTL) family and could install m6A marks on its substrates. Here, we uncover a tumor-promoting role of METTL16 in AML and LSC self-renewal. To explore the mechanism underlying the oncogenic function of METTL16 in AML, we performed m6A-seq and RNA-seq. Via integrated analysis of m6A-seq data and RNA-seq data, we identified two bona fide targets of METTL16, BCAT1 and BCAT2. METTL16 functions as an m6A methyltransferase to regulate expression of BCAT1 and BCAT2, which contribute to reprogramming BCAA metabolism.

Mettl16 promotes hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell expansion in embryonic hematopoiesis [m6A-Seq]

Project description:The RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification has emerged as an essential regulator of vertebrate embryogenesis and malignancies. However, its functions and underlying molecular mechanisms in the expansion of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) during early embryonic development remain elusive. Here we show that Mettl16, an RNA methyltransferase identified recently, is specifically required for HSPC expansion during zebrafish early embryonic development in an m6A-dependent manner. In mettl16 deficient embryos, HSPCs exhibit defective proliferation capacity due to G0/G1 arrest. Mechanistically, HSPC proliferation is blocked by impaired methyltransferase function of Mettl16 in vivo. We identify cell cycle gene mybl2b as a novel direct m6A target of Mettl16, and Mettl16 deficiency destabilizes mybl2b mRNA, which is mediated by m6A reader Igf2bp1. Moreover, we revealed that the METTL16-m6A-MYBL2-IGF2BP1 signaling axis in G1/S progression is conserved in humans. Collectively, our findings demonstrate the critical function of m6A modification deposited by Mettl16 in HSPC expansion during early embryonic development.

Determine the methyltransferase activities of METTL3, METTL14, and METTL16 via MeRIP-seq (m6A-seq)

Project description:All the three enzymes, METTL3, METTL14, and METTL16, belong to methyltransferase like (METTL) family and possess the ability to deposit N6-methyladenosine (m6A) in mRNA. Via immunofluorescence staining and wertern blotting, we discovered either METTL3 or METTL14 mainly localize in nuclear, but METTL16 localizes in both cytosol and nuclei. To compare the m6A methyltransferase activities of the three m6A 'writers' and better understand their differences, MeRIP-seq (m6A-seq) was conducted with poly(A) RNAs isolaed from HEK293T cells with METTL3, 14 and 16 knockout.

Determine METTL16-mediated spatiotemoral installation of m6A via MeRIP-seq (m6A-seq) with nascent RNA and nuclear poly(A) RNA

Project description:METTL16 belong to methyltransferase like (METTL) family and possesses the ability to deposit N6-methyladenosine (m6A) in mRNA. We have conducted m6A-seq with poly(A) RNAs isolated from the whole HEK293T cells upon METTL16 knockdown to identify the transcripts with hypo m6A peaks after METTL16 knockdown, and also conducted RIP-seq with HEK293T cells to determine the METTL16-bound transcripts. However, we found that the transcripts with hypo m6A peaks upon METTL16 knockdown only account for a small proportion of METTL16-bound transcripts. We suppose one of the possibility reasons might be due to spatiotemporal installation of m6A. To support our hypothesis, we performed additional m6A seq with nascent RNA and nuclear poly(A) RNA isolated from HEK293T cells with METTL16 knockdown.
