Project description:Reprogramming gene expression at the translational level drives intestinal tumorigenesis. Codon decoding during translation elongation relies on tRNA modifications, while their pathological relevance in colorectal cancer remains to be elucidated. Here, we show that AlkB homolog 8 (ALKBH8), a uridine 34 (U34) tRNA methyltransferase, is a direct target of Wnt/β-catenin and is upregulated in colorectal cancer. Genetic ablation of ALKBH8 inhibits the development of intestinal tumors in Apcmin/+, AOM/DSS, and xenograft models. Loss of ALKBH8 induces ribosome pausing at adenine-ending codons, impairing the translation elongation of mRNAs enriched with these codons. Specifically, ALKBH8 regulates the translation of KRAS proto-oncogene in a codon-dependent manner. Rescue experiments demonstrate that the methyltransferase activity of ALKBH8 is required for its translation-promoting function. Together, our findings reveal ALKBH8-dependent mRNA translation as a critical mediator of intestinal tumorigenesis, underscoring its potential as a promising target for colorectal cancer therapy.

Project description:The Fe(II)- and 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)-dependent dioxygenase AlkB from E. coli is a demethylase which repairs alkyl lesions in DNA, as well as RNA, through a direct reversal mechanism. Humans possess nine AlkB homologues (ALKBH1-8 and FTO). ALKBH2 and ALKBH3 display demethylase activities corresponding to that of AlkB, and both ALKBH8 and FTO are RNA modification enzymes. The biochemical functions of the rest of the homologues are still unknown. To increase our knowledge on the functions of ALKBH4 and ALKBH7 we have here performed yeast two-hybrid screens to identify interaction partners of the two proteins. While no high-confidence hits were detected in the case of ALKBH7, several proteins associated with chromatin and/or involved in transcription were found to interact with ALKBH4. For all interaction partners, the regions mediating binding to ALKBH4 comprised domains previously reported to be involved in interaction with DNA or chromatin. Furthermore, some of these partners showed nuclear co-localization with ALKBH4. However, the global gene expression pattern was only marginally altered upon ALKBH4 over-expression, and larger effects were observed in the case of ALKBH7. Although the molecular function of both proteins remains to be revealed, our findings suggest a role for ALKBH4 in regulation of gene expression or chromatin state and support the previous association of ALKBH7 with spermatogenesis.

Project description:Dysregulated mRNA translation is a critical driver of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) progression. Although translation initiation has been extensively studied, the mechanisms governing translation elongation during AML progression remain to be elucidated. Here, we show that the RNA methyltransferase ALKBH8 is overexpressed in AML and is associated with poor prognosis. ALKBH8 is required for the proliferation and leukemogenic capacity of human and murine AML cells, both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, ALKBH8 promotes translation-coupled mRNA stabilization through its methyltransferase domain. Loss of ALKBH8 induces ribosome pausing and preferentially destabilizes transcripts enriched in adenine-ending codons. Specifically, ALKBH8 regulates the expression of DNA repair gene BRCA1 in a codon-dependent manner, resulting in enhanced homologous recombination and cell survival. Moreover, ALKBH8 depletion sensitizes AML cells to the PARP inhibitor olaparib both in vitro and in vivo. Collectively, our study reveals a codon-specific mechanism by which ALKBH8 regulates oncogenic translation in AML, highlighting the ALKBH8-BRCA1 axis as a potential target for therapeutic intervention.
