Project description:Microarray detection of m7G RNA methylation modification in human lung cancer tissues
| PRJNA971529 | ENA
Project description:The project aims to identify the RNA binding proteins that can specifically bind to mRNA internal modification N7-methylguanosine (m7G). N7-methylguanosine (m7G) methylation has been long identified as the essential cap modification for eukaryotic mRNA, but later has been identified internally in various types of RNAs, including tRNA, rRNA, miRNA, and mRNA. While the METTL1/WDR4 complex, responsible for tRNA m7G installation, has been suggested to be responsible for internal mRNA modification as well, little is known about the proteins that can identify and interact with m7G. To better understand its interaction with RNA binding proteins and further define its regulatory function in mRNA metabolism, we performed the experiment to pulldown proteins with different binding affinity on unmodified G and m7G and subject the enriched fractions to mass spectrometry.

Project description:Methods for the precise detection and quantification of RNA modifications are critical to uncover functional roles of diverse RNA modifications. The internal m7G modification in mammalian cytoplasmic tRNAs is known to affect tRNA function and impact embryonic stem cell self-renewal, tumorigenesis, cancer progression, and other cellular processes. Here, we introduce m7G-quant-seq, a quantitative method that accurately detects internal m7G sites in human cytoplasmic tRNAs at single-base resolution. The efficient chemical reduction and mild depurination can almost completely convert internal m7G sites into RNA abasic sites (AP sites). We demonstrate that RNA abasic sites induce a mixed variation pattern during reverse transcription, including G → A or C or T mutations as well as deletions. We calculated the total variation ratio to quantify the m7G modification fraction at each methylated site. The calibration curves of all relevant motif contexts allow us to more quantitatively determine the m7G methylation level. We detected internal m7G sites in 22 human cytoplasmic tRNAs from HeLa and HEK293T cells and successfully estimated the corresponding m7G methylation stoichiometry. m7G-quant-seq could be applied to monitor the tRNA m7G methylation level change in diverse biological processes.

Project description:N7-methylguanosine (m7G) modification is one of the most prevalent tRNA modifications in human. The precise function and molecular mechanism of m7G tRNA modification in regulation of cancer remain poorly understood. Here we showed that m7G tRNA modification, METTL1 and WDR4 are elevated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues and associated with HCC patient prognosis. Functionally, silencing METTL1 or WDR4 inhibits HCC cell proliferation, migration and invasion, while forced expression of wild type METTL1 but not its catalytic dead mutant promotes HCC progression. Knockdown of METTL1 reduces m7G tRNA modification and decreases m7G modified tRNA expression. Mechanistically, METTL1 depletion selectively decreases the mRNA translation of a subset of oncogenic genes, especially cell cycle and EGFR pathway genes, in m7G-related codon dependent manner. Moreover, in vivo studies using Mettl1 knock-in and knockout mice reveal a critical function of Mettl1 mediated m7G tRNA modifications in promoting hepatocarcinogenesis in the hydrodynamics transfection HCC model. Our work uncovers the critical functions of tRNA m7G modification in regulating cancer mRNA translation and promoting hepatocarcinogenesis, thus provides new insights into role of the mis-regulated tRNA modifications in cancers.

Project description:Recent studies have suggested that mRNA internal m7G and its writer protein METTL1 are closely related to cell metabolism and cancer regulation. Here, we identify that IGF2BP family proteins IGF2BP1-3 can preferentially bind internal mRNA m7G. Such interactions, especially IGF2BP3 with m7G, could promote the degradation of m7G target transcripts in cancer cells. IGF2BP3 is more responsive to changes of the m7G modification, while IGF2BP1 prefers m6A to stabilize the bound transcripts. We also demonstrate that p53 transcript, TP53, is m7G-modified at its 3’UTR in cancer cells. In glioblastoma, the methylation level and the half lifetime of the modified transcript could be modulated by tuning IGF2BP3, or by site-specific targeting of m7G through a dCas13b-guided system, resulting in modulation of cancer progression and chemosensitivity.

Project description:Methylation of guanosine on position N7 (m7G) on internal RNA positions have been found in all domains of life and have been implicated in human disease, but m7G modifications has so far only been mapped in a limited number of RNA molecules. Here, we present m7G Mutational Profiling sequencing (m7G-MaP-seq), which allows high throughput detection of m7G modifications. In our method, m7G modified positions are converted to abasic sites by mild reduction, recorded as cDNA mutations through reverse transcription, sequenced and subsequently detected by identification of positions with increased mutation rates in the reduced sample compared to the control. We show that m7G-MaP-seq efficiently detects m7G modifications in rRNA, including a previously uncharacterised rRNA modification in Arabidopsis thaliana. Furthermore, we identify m7G tRNA modifications in budding yeast, human and arabidopsis tRNA and show that m7G modification occurs before tRNA splicing. We do not find any evidence for internal m7G modifications being present in other small RNA, such as miRNA, snoRNA and sRNA. Likewise, high coverage m7G-MaP-seq analysis of mRNA from E. coli or yeast cells failed to identify any internal m7G modifications.

Project description:The tRNA N7-methylguanosine (m7G) modification is not essential for yeast growth, but in mammals mis-regulations of tRNA m7G modification cause stem cell defect and developmental disorders. Here we found that tRNA m7G methyltransferase complex components METTL1 and WDR4 are elevated in lung cancer tissues and associated with poor lung cancer prognosis. Functionally, depletion of METTL1 or WDR4 suppresses proliferation, migration, and invasion of lung cancer cells. In addition, forced expression of METTL1 or WDR4 promotes lung cancer progression depending on the tRNA m7G methyltransferase activity. Mechanistically, METTL1 knockdown leads to reduced tRNA m7G modification and decreased expression of m7G-modified tRNAs. Depletion of METTL1 selectively reduces the translation of a subset of oncogenic transcripts, including the genes related to cell proliferation in a m7G related codon dependent manner. Our study uncovered a new layer of translation regulation mechanism mediated by tRNA m7G modification, provided strong evidence to support the important physiological function of mis-regulated tRNA modification in cancer, and suggested that targeting METTL1 could be a promising strategy for lung cancer treatment.
