Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of Germ Cell-specific Ythdf2 Mutants and Control Transcriptomes

ABSTRACT: Given the reported molecular role of YTHDF2 in mRNA stability, we designed to investigate the biological mechanism underlying the defects of germ cell-specific ythdf2 mutants (Ythdf2-vKO) spermatogenesis using high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Testes were obtained from Ythdf2-vKO and control adult mice, then were used for RNA-seq. Our result showed that there were 266 genes (196 up and 70 down) deregulated in Ythdf2-vKO testes (P < 0.05, fold change ＞ 1.5) compared with control adult mice. Based on our previously reported m6A mRNA methylomes of mouse spermaogenic cells (PMID: 28914256), 66% of the upregulated genes (129 genes) in Ythdf2-vKO testes were modified with m6A. Further analysis based on our previously reported single-cell transcriptomics data of mouse spermatogenesis (PMID: 30061742), the 129 upregulated genes with m6A modification in Ythdf2-vKO testes mainly express at early stages of wild-type spermatogenesis. While the 70 down regulated genes in Ythdf2-vKO testes mainly exist at later stages of wild-type spermatogenesis. Our qPCR analysis confirmed the RNA-seq analysis. In summary, our results showed that YTHDF2 is essential for regulation of a wave of transcriptome dynamic transition during mice spermatogenesis.

m6A-dependent regulation of messenger RNA stability

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

YTHDC2 regulates spermatogenesis through promoting the translation of N6-methyladenosine-modified RNA

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common internal modification in eukaryotic mRNA. It is dynamically installed and removed, and acts as an essential layer of mRNA metabolism, regulating biological processes including stem cell pluripotency, cell differentiation, and energy homeostasis. m6A is recognized by selective binding proteins; YTHDF1 and YTHDF3 work in concert to promote the translation of m6A-containing mRNAs, YTHDF2 expedites mRNA decay, and YTHDC1 affects the splicing of its targets. The biological function of YTHDC2, the final member of the YTH protein family, remains unknown. We report that YTHDC2 selectively binds m6A along its consensus motif GGACU. YTHDC2 promotes translation of its targets, and associates with cellular fractions involved in translation initiation. Ythdc2 knockout mice are infertile and have significantly smaller testes compared to those of littermates. In the testes, Ythdc2 is temporally expressed as meiosis begins, and germ cells of Ythdc2 knockout mice do not develop past the spermatogonium stage. Thus, YTHDC2 is an m6A binding protein that plays essential roles in spermatogenesis.

YTHDF2 iCLIP in glioblastoma stem cells

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.

Transcriptome studies reveal the regulation of m6A in testis development and spermatogenesis in yak

Project description:Studying spermatogenesis is the key to understanding the development mechanism of the yak reproductive system. Although N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification has been reported to regulate spermatogenesis and reproductive function in mammals, the molecular mechanism of m6A in yak testis development and spermatogenesis remains largely unknown. Therefore, we collected testicular tissue from junile and adult yaks, and found that the m6A level significantly increased after sexual maturity in yak. In MeRIP-seq, 1,702 hypermethylated peaks and 724 hypomethylated peaks were identified. The hypermethylated differentially methylated RNAs (DMRs) (CIB2, AK1, FOXJ2, PKDREJ, SLC9A3, and TOPAZ1) mainly regulated spermatogenesis, while the hypomethylated DMRs (BCL6, USP25, CD96, EPHA2, and TAF12) mainly participated in immune response. Functional enrichment analysis showed that DMRs were significantly enriched in the adherens junction, gap junction, and Wnt, PI3K, and mTOR signaling pathways, regulating cell development, spermatogenesis, and testicular endocrine function. The functional analysis of differentially expressed genes showed that they were involved in the biological processes of mitosis, meiosis, and flagellated sperm motility during sexual maturity of yak testis. We also screened the key regulatory factors of testis development and spermatogenesis by combined analysis, which included BRCA1, CREBBP, STAT3, and SMAD4. This study has important research value and practical guiding significance for yak genetic improvement, particularly in understanding the molecular mechanism and evolutionary dynamics of the progression of testis developmental stages in yaks.

N6-methyladenosine Modulates Messenger RNA Translation Efficiency

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal messenger (mRNA) modification in mammalian mRNA. This modification is reversible and non-stoichiometric, which potentially adds an additional layer of variety and dynamic control of mRNA metabolism. The m6A-modified mRNA can be selectively recognized by the YTH family “reader” proteins. The preferential binding of m6A-containing mRNA by YTHDF2 is known to reduce the stability of the target transcripts; however, the exact effects of m6A on translation has yet to be elucidated. Here we show that another m6A reader protein, YTHDF1, promotes ribosome loading of its target transcripts. YTHDF1 forms a complex with translation initiation factors to elevate the translation efficiency of its bound mRNA. In a unified mechanism of translation control through m6A, the YTHDF2-mediated decay controls the lifetime of target transcripts; whereas, the YTHDF1-based translation promotion increases the translation efficiency to ensure effective protein production from relatively short-lived transcripts that are marked by m6A. PAR-CLIP and RIP was used to identify YTHDF1 binding sites followed by ribosome profling and RNA seq to assess the consequences of YTHDF1 siRNA knock-down

ALKBH5 is a New Mammalian RNA Demethylase

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent internal modification of messenger RNA (mRNA) in higher eukaryotes. Here we report ALKBH5 as a new mammalian demethylase that oxidatively removes the m6A modification in mRNA in vitro and inside cells. This demethylation activity of ALKBH5 significantly affects mRNA export and RNA metabolism as well as the assembly of mRNA processing factors in nuclear speckles. Alkbh5-deficient male mice are characterized by impaired fertility resulting from apoptosis that affects meiotic metaphase-stage spermatocytes. In accordance with this defect, we have identified in mouse testes 1552 differentially expressed genes which cover broad functional categories and include spermatogenesis-related mRNAs involved in the p53 functional interaction network. We show that Alkbh5-deficiency impacts the expression levels of some of these mRNAs, supporting the observed phenotype. The discovery of this new RNA demethylase strongly suggests that the reversible m6A modification plays fundamental and broad functions in mammalian cells. RNA-seq in two cell types
