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


ABSTRACT: 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.
