Combined analysis of ribo-seq and rna-seq reveals that Mettl3 regulates embryonic cerebral cortex development in mice by controlling the proliferation and differentiation of neural progenitor cells

ABSTRACT: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most important internal messenger RNA (mRNA) modification in mammals. The role of Mettl3, the core component of methyltransferase, and Fto, the demethylase, has not been revealed in the embryonic development of the cerebral cortex in mice. We constructed the conditional knockout of Mettl3 and Fto in the cerebral cortex of mice. We found that Mettl3 deletion causes cell cycle extension of progenitors and massive proliferation of intermediate progenitors at E15.5, which lead to a fold structure of cortex, while Fto deletion hardly altered cell numbers or morphology. Meanwhile, both transcriptome sequence (RNA-Seq) and ribosome profiling (Ribo-Seq) of Mettl3-deleted cortex mRNAs in E15.5 revealed that the differential genes were enriched in cell differentiation, neurogenesis, neuron differentiation, cell proliferation, and cell cycle. Moreover, deleted Mettl3 but not Fto significantly upregulated Ythdf1 and Ythdf2, which caused a substantial change in gene translation efficiency. Our findings indicate cortex m6A represents a novel layer of complexity in gene expression regulation and provide a new mechanism of precisely programmed RNA maturation.

Mettl3-m6A-YTHDF1 axis promotion of mitochondrial dysfunction in metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD)

Project description:The N6-methyladenosine (m6A) mRNA modification and the mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC) hold paramount importance in the advancement of MASLD. This study thoroughly investigates the relationship and impact of m6A mRNA modification and mitochondrial function in the progression of MASLD. Here we report that the mRNA and protein levels of mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC) subunits showed inconsistent trends in vivo experiments. Abnormal m6A modification and mitochondrial dysfunction in MASLD were attributed to the upregulation of methyltransferase like 3 (Mettl3) and the downregulation of YTH N6-methyladenosine RNA binding protein 1 (YTHDF1) induced by high-fat foods. Mettl3 promoted the MRC's function. However, knockout of the reader protein YTHDF1, which plays a crucial role in the m6A modification process, counteracted the effect of Mettl3 and suppressed MRC. In MASLD, damage to the MRC may be regulated by the Mettl3-m6A-YTHDF1 complex axis, especially by the role of YTHDF1. Our research has offered a novel perspective on the involvement of m6A mRNA methylation in the pathogenesis of MASLD.

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

Targeted Quantitative Profiling of Epitranscriptomic Reader, Writer and Eraser Proteins Revealed Potential Crosstalk between N6-Methyladenosine and Other RNA Modifications

Project description:N⁶-methyladenosine (m6A) and its reader, writer, and eraser (RWE) proteins assume crucial roles in regulating the splicing, stability, and translation of mRNA. To our knowledge, no systematic investigations have been conducted about the crosstalk between m6A and other modified nucleosides in RNA. Herein, we modified our recently established liquid chromatography-parallel-reaction monitoring (LC-PRM) method by incorporating stable isotope-labeled (SIL) peptides as internal or surrogate standards for profiling epitranscriptomic RWE proteins. We were able to detect reproducibly a total of 114 RWE proteins in HEK293T cells with the genes encoding m6A eraser proteins (i.e., ALKBH5, FTO) and the catalytic subunit of the major m6A writer complex (i.e., METTL3) being individually ablated. Notably, eight proteins were altered by more than 1.5-fold in the opposite directions in HEK293T cells depleted of METTL3 and ALKBH5. Analysis of published m6A mapping results revealed the presence of m6A in the corresponding mRNAs of four of these proteins. Together, we integrated SIL peptides into our LC-PRM method for quantifying epitranscriptomic RWE proteins, and our work revealed potential crosstalks between m6A and other epitranscriptomic modifications. Our modified LC-PRM method with the use of SIL peptides should be applicable for high-throughput profiling of epitranscriptomic RWE proteins in other cell types and in tissues.

Arabidopsis Messenger RNA N6-methyladenosine Demethylation Regulates Plant Development

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal modification in the messenger RNA (mRNA) of all higher eukaryotes. This modification has been shown to be reversible in mammals; it is installed by a methyltransferase heterodimer complex of METTL3 and METTL14 bound with WTAP, and reversed by iron(II)- and Î±-ketoglutarate-dependent demethylases FTO and ALKBH5. This modification exhibits significant functional roles in various biological processes. The m6A modification as a RNA mark is recognized by reader proteins, such as YTH domain family proteins and HNRNPA2B1; m6A can also act as a structure switch to affect RNA-protein interactions for biological regulation. In Arabidopsis thaliana, the methyltransferase subunit MTA (the plant orthologue of human METTL3, encoded by At4g10760) was well characterized and FIP37 (the plant orthologue of human WTAP) was first identified as the interacting partner of MTA. Here we report the discovery and characterization of reversible m6A methylation mediated by AtALKBH10B (encoded by At4g02940) in A. thaliana, and noticeable roles of this RNA demethylase in affecting plant development and floral transition. Our findings reveal potential broad functions of reversible mRNA methylation in plants. m6A peaks were identified from wild type Columbia-0 and atalkbh10b-1 mutant in two biological replicates

m6A/m-Seq of mouse adult cortex of Mettl3 cKO or Fto cKO mice

Project description:N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) and N6,2′-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am) are abundant mRNA modifications that regulate transcript processing and translation. The role of both, here termed m6A/m, in the stress response in the adult brain in vivo are currently unknown. Here, we investigated the effect of gene deletion of Mettl3, a m6A methyltransferase, and Fto, a m6A and m6Am demethlyase, induced in adulthood in excitatory neurons of the neocortex and hippocampus (Camk2a-Cre Mettl3 or Fto cKO) on the cortical epitranscriptome. PolyA-RNA-fragments from 3-5 replicates per group were processed both as m6A/m-sample (RNA immunoprecipiation RIP with an m6A and m6Am antibody) and RNA-input sample.

TBK1-METTL3 axis facilitates antiviral immunity [MeRIP-seq]

Project description:mRNA m6A modification is involved in regulation of immune system. However, its function in antiviral immunity is controversial, and how immune responses regulate m6A modification is unknown. We here found TBK1, a key kinase of antiviral pathways, phosphorylated the core m6A methyltransferase METTL3 at Serine 67. The phosphorylated METTL3 interacted with translational complex and enhanced proteins translation, including IRF3, and facilitated antiviral responses. TBK1 also promoted METTL3 activation and m6A modification, which is required for stabilizing IRF3 mRNA. Type I IFN induction was severely impaired in METTL3 deficient cells. Mettl3flfl-lyz2-Cre mice were significantly more susceptible to IAV-induced lethality than control mice. Consistently, Ythdf1—/— mice cannot control viral infection and showed higher mortality than control mice due to decreased IRF3 expression. Together, we demonstrated that innate signals activated METTL3 via TBK1, and METTL3 and m6A modification secured antiviral immunity by promoting mRNA stability and protein translation.
