FTO-mediated cytoplasmic m6Am demethylation adjusts stem-like properties in colorectal cancer cell

ABSTRACT: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a small but critical cell population for cancer biology since they display inherent resistance to standard therapies and give rise to metastases. Despite accruing evidence establishing a link between deregulation of epitranscriptome-related players and tumorigenic process, the role of messenger RNA (mRNA) modifications dynamic in the regulation of CSC properties remains poorly understood. Here, we show that the cytoplasmic pool of fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) impedes CSC abilities in colorectal cancer through its m6Am (N6,2'-O-dimethyladenosine) demethylase activity. While m6Am is strategically located next to the m7G-mRNA cap, its biological function is not well understood and has not been addressed in cancer. Low FTO expression in patient-derived cell lines elevates m6Am level in mRNA which results in enhanced in vivo tumorigenicity and chemoresistance. Inhibition of the nuclear m6Am methyltransferase, PCIF1/CAPAM, fully reverses this phenotype, stressing the role of m6Am modification in stem-like properties acquisition. FTO-mediated regulation of m6Am marking constitutes a novel, reversible pathway controlling CSC abilities. Altogether, our findings bring to light the first biological function of the m6Am modification and its potential adverse consequences for colorectal cancer management.

Recruitment of the m6A/Am demethylase FTO to target RNAs by the telomeric zinc finger protein ZBTB48 [RNA-seq]

Project description:Fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) can remove both the N6-methyladenosine (m6A) and N6, 2′-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am) methylation marks that function in multiple aspects of posttranscriptional regulation. Here, we demonstrate that Zbtb48, a C2H2-zinc finger protein that functions in telomere maintenance, associates with FTO and binds both mRNA and the telomere-associated regulatory RNA TERRA to regulate the functional interactions of FTO with target transcripts. Specifically, depletion of Zbtb48 affects targeting of FTO to sites of m6A/m6Am modification, changes cellular m6A/m6Am levels and, consequently, alters decay rates of target RNAs. Zbtb48 ablation also accelerates growth of HCT-116 colorectal cancer cells and modulates FTO-dependent regulation of Metastasis-associated protein 1 (MTA1) transcripts by controlling the binding to MTA1 mRNA of the m6A reader IGF2BP2. Our findings thus uncover a previously unknown mechanism of posttranscriptional regulation in which Zbtb48 co-ordinates RNA-binding of the m6A/m6Am demethylase FTO to control expression of its target RNAs.

Identification of the m6Am Methyltransferase PCIF1 Reveals the Location and Functions of m6Am in the Transcriptome

Project description:mRNAs are regulated by nucleotide modifications that influence their cellular fate. Two of the most abundant modified nucleotides are N6-methyladenosine (m6A), found within mRNAs, and N6,2′-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am), which is found at the first transcribed nucleotide. Distinguishing these modifications in mapping studies has been difficult. Here, we identify and biochemically characterize PCIF1, the methyltransferase that generates m6Am. We find that PCIF1 binds and is dependent on the m7G cap. By depleting PCIF1, we generated transcriptome-wide maps that distinguish m6Am and m6A. We find that m6A and m6Am misannotations arise from mRNA isoforms with alternative transcription start sites (TSSs). These isoforms contain m6Am that maps to “internal” sites, increasing the likelihood of misannotation. We find that depleting PCIF1 does not substantially affect mRNA translation but is associated with reduced stability of a subset of m6Am-annotated mRNAs. The discovery of PCIF1 and our accurate mapping technique will facilitate future studies to characterize m6Am’s function.

m6A-seq data analysis of control and PCIF1 knockdown transcriptome

Project description:Purpose: To identify the in vivo RNA targets of PCIF1, we performed meRIP experiments for PCIF1 KD and control cells using an anti-m6A antibody. We envisioned that the cap-specific PCIF1 should selectively alter the m6Am modification at the 5-terminal region of transcripts. Indeed, we observed a reduction of modification peaks at the 5’-end but not the 3’-UTR regions of mRNA upon PCIF1 KD.

An atlas of single-base-resolution N6-methyl-adenine methylomes redefines RNA demethylase function as suppressors of disruptive RNA methylation

Project description:Various methylases and demethylases catalyze methylation and demethylation of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) and N6,2?-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am) but precise methylomes uniquely mediated by each methylase/demethylase are still lacking. Here, we developed m6A-Crosslinking-Exonuclease-sequencing (m6ACE-seq) to map m6A and m6Am at transcriptome-wide single-base-resolution. m6ACE-seq's ability to quantify relative differences in methylation levels across samples enabled the generation of a comprehensive atlas of distinct methylomes uniquely mediated by every individual known methylase/demethylase. We determined METTL16 to indirectly impact manifold methylation targets beyond its consensus target motif, and highlighted the importance of precision in mapping PCIF1-dependent m6Am. Rather than reverse RNA methylation, we found that both ALKBH5 and FTO demethylases instead maintain their regulated sites in an unmethylated steady-state. In FTO's absence, anomalous m6Am disrupts snRNA interaction with nuclear export machinery, potentially causing aberrant pre-mRNA splicing events. We propose a model whereby RNA demethylases ensure normal RNA metabolism by suppressing disruptive RNA methylation in the nucleus.

The mammalian cap-specific m6Am RNA methyltransferase PCIF1 regulates transcript levels in mouse tissues

Project description:The 5' end of eukaryotic mRNAs is protected by the m7G-cap structure. The transcription start site nucleotide is ribose methylated (Nm) in many eukaryotes, while an adenosine at this position is further methylated at the N6 position (m6A) by the mammalian Phosphorylated CTD-interacting Factor 1 (PCIF1) to generate m6Am. Here we show that while loss of cap-specific m6Am in mice does not affect viability or fertility, the Pcif1 mutants display reduced body-weight. Transcriptome analyses of mutant mouse tissues support a role for the cap-specific m6Am modification in stabilizing transcripts. In contrast, the Drosophila Pcif1 is catalytically-dead, but like its mammalian counterpart it retains the ability to associate with the Ser5-phosphorylated CTD of RNA pol II. Finally, we show that the Trypanosoma Pcif1 is an m6Am methylase that contributes to the N6,N6,2?-O-trimethyladenosine (m62Am) in the hypermethylated cap4 structure of Trypanosomatids. Thus, PCIF1 has evolved to function in catalytic and non-catalytic roles.

Reversible methylation of m6Am in the 5′ cap controls mRNA stability

Project description:Internal bases in mRNA can be subjected to modifications that influence the fate of mRNA in cells. One of the most prevalent modified bases is found at the 5′ end of mRNA, at the first encoded nucleotide adjacent to the 7-methylguanosine cap. Here we show that this nucleotide, N6,2′-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am), is a reversible modification that influences cellular mRNA fate. Using a transcriptome-wide map of m6Am we find that m6Am-initiated transcripts are markedly more stable than mRNAs that begin with other nucleotides. We show that the enhanced stability of m6Am-initiated transcripts is due to resistance to the mRNA-decapping enzyme DCP2. Moreover, we find that m6Am is selectively demethylated by fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO). FTO preferentially demethylates m6Am rather than N6-methyladenosine (m6A), and reduces the stability of m6Am mRNAs. Together, these findings show that the methylation status of m6Am in the 5′ cap is a dynamic and reversible epitranscriptomic modification that determines mRNA stability.
