Nuclear Accumulation of YTHDF1 Regulates mRNA Splicing in the DNA Damage Response

ABSTRACT: YTH domain-containing family protein 1 (YTHDF1), a reader of N6-methyladenosine, has been implicated in regulating RNA metabolism in the cytosol. Here we report a role of YTHDF1 within the nucleus in response to genotoxic stress. Upon radiation, YTHDF1 is phosphorylated at serine 182 in an ATR-dependent manner. This phosphorylation inhibits exportin 1-mediated nuclear export of YTHDF1, resulting in its accumulation within the nucleus. Nuclear YTHDF1 enhances the binding capacity of SRSF2 to a group of m6A-modified exons, leading to increased exon inclusion. Specifically, YTHDF1 promotes splicing and expression of DNA repair genes, such as BRCA1 and TP53BP1, thereby mitigating excessive DNA damage. Depletion of YTHDF1 sensitizes cancer cells to radiation treatment. Altogether, our study reveals a crucial role of YTHDF1 in m6A-mediated mRNA splicing in the DNA damage response, proposing it as a potential target for radiation therapy.

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.

YTHDF1-N6-methyladenosine-ARHGEF2 axis promoted colorectal tumorigenesis and metastasis

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) governs the fate of RNAs through m6A readers. Colorectal cancer (CRC) exhibits aberrant m6A modifications and expression of m6A regulators. However, little is known about how m6A readers interpret oncogenic m6A methylome for malignant transformation. m6A reader YTHDF1 was overexpressed by copy number gain/amplification in majority of CRCs. YTHDF1 high expression and CNVs predict increased risk of CRC relapse. Transcriptome profiles of YTHDF1-high tumors exhibit highly metastatic features. YTHDF1 promoted CRC tumor cell and organoid proliferation and enhanced metastasis. Ythdf1 knockout dampened tumor growth in carcinogen-induced CRC model. Through multiomic integration, RhoA activator ARHGEF2 was characterized as the key functional YTHDF1 target based on its m6A and YTHDF1-binding signal, translation efficiency changes, protein correlations with YTHDF1 in clinical samples, and disrupted RhoA features by YTHDF1 knockdown. Moreover, YTHDF1-ARHGEF2 co-regulation was observed in YTHDF1-overexpressing metastatic sites and carcinogen-induced Ythdf1-null CRC tumors. ARHGEF2 overexpression significantly rescued RhoA signaling, tumor cell survival and invasiveness impaired by YTHDF1 knockdown both in vitro and in vivo, further confirming the essential function of ARHGEF2.

YTHDF1 loss in dendritic cells potentiates radiationinduced antitumor immunity via STING-dependent type I IFN production

Project description:The RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) reader YTHDF1 is implicated in cancer etiology and progression. We discovered that radiotherapy (RT) increased YTHDF1 expression in dendritic cells (DCs) of PBMCs from patients with cancer, but not in other immune cells tested. Elevated YTHDF1 expression in DCs was associated with poor outcomes for patients receiving RT. We found that loss of Ythdf1 in DCs enhanced the antitumor effects of ionizing radiation (IR) by increasing the cross-priming capacity of DCs across multiple murine cancer models. Mechanistically, IR upregulated YTHDF1 expression in DCs through stimulator of IFN genes/type I IFN (STING/IFN-I) signaling. YTHDF1 in turn triggered STING degradation by increasing lysosomal cathepsins, thereby reducing IFN-I production. We created a YTHDF1 deletion/inhibition prototype DC vaccine that significantly improved the therapeutic effect of RT and radioimmunotherapy in a murine melanoma model. Our findings reveal a layer of regulation between YTHDF1/m6A and STING in response to IR, which opens new paths for the development of YTHDF1-targeting therapies.

TTC22 increasing total m6A RNA level and colon cancer metastasis via RPL4-WTAP-YTHDF1 axis

Project description:WTAP is an essential component of the RNA N-6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification complexes that guides METLL3-METLL14 heteroduplexes to target RNAs in the nucleus of mammalian cells. Through mining the genotype-tissue expression (GTEx) datasets, we initially found that TTC22 expression was highly correlated with WTAP and FTO in many normal human tissues. Our experimental results indicate that TTC22 could directly capture RNA binding protein RPL4, induce the binding between RPL4 and WTAP mRNA in the cytoplasm, which increased the m6A level, induced alterative splicing, enhanced the stability and translation efficiency of WTAP mRNA, and consequently upregulated the level of total m6A RNA. These results indicate that WTAP mRNA is a m6A target and there is a positive feedback loop between total m6A and WTAP expression. YTHDF1 was found to be an essential m6A WTAP mRNA binding protein. Downregulation of RPL4, WTAP, or YTHDF1 expression could reverse TTC22-enhanced total m6A RNA level. m6A-specific antibody immunoprecipitated RNA-sequencing (meRIP-seq) demonstrated that TTC22 caused dramatic expression changes of genes related to metabolic pathways, ribosome biogenesis, and RNA spliceosome. Furthermore, we also found that TTC22 upregulated the expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related gene SNAI1 via m6A, and promoted metastasis of colon cancer in vitro and in mice. In conclusion, our study illustrates that WTAP mRNA is a m6A target using YTHDF1 as the binding protein. TTC22 could upregulate the levels of WTAP expression and total m6A RNA through the PRL4 binding. The m6A-mediated upregulation of SNAI1 expression may contribute to TTC22-enhanced colon cancer metastasis.

m6A-facilitated hippocampal learning and memory through Ythdf1

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent internal RNA modification in mammalian messenger RNAs (mRNAs). While m6A has been shown to mark groups of mRNAs for coordinated degradation in various physiological processes, the relevance of m6A in affecting translation remains to be determined in intact biological systems in vivo. Here we show that, through its reader protein Ythdf1, m6A promotes a pulse of protein synthesis of target transcripts in response to neuronal stimuli in the adult mouse hippocampus, thereby facilitating learning and memory processes. Mice with genetic deletion of the Ythdf1 gene (Ythdf1-/-) exhibit learning and memory defects, as well as impaired hippocampal synaptic transmission and long-term potentiation (LTP). Selective re-expression of Ythdf1 in the hippocampus of adult Ythdf1-/- mice fully rescues the behavioral and synaptic defects, while hippocampus-specific knockdown of Ythdf1 or Mettl3, the catalytic component of m6A methyltransferase complex, recapitulates the hippocampal deficiency in adult mice. At the molecular level, transcriptome-wide mapping of m6A sites and RNA binding sites of Ythdf1 on hippocampal mRNAs using crosslinking immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (CLIP-seq) uncovered key neuronal genes, including those involved in synaptic transmission and long-term potentiation. Nascent protein labelling and tether reporter assays in cultured hippocampal neurons revealed that Ythdf1 is critical for initiating a pulse of protein synthesis of target transcripts in a neuronal-stimulus-dependent manner. Collectively, our results uncover a pathway of mRNA m6A methylation in learning and memory, which is mediated through Ythdf1 in response to stimuli.

YTHDF1-regulated oncogenic translation program offers a therapeutic target for acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the most abundant modification in mRNAs, has been defined as a crucial modulator in the progression of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), while the detailed mechanism remains elusive. Here we report that YTHDF1, an m6A reader protein, is overexpressed in human AML samples with enrichment in leukemia stem cells (LSCs). Whereas YTHDF1 is dispensable for normal hematopoiesis in mice, depletion of YTHDF1 attenuates self-renewal and proliferation of patient-derived LSCs, and impedes leukemia establishment in immunodeficient mice. Mechanistically, YTHDF1 promotes the translation of diverse m6A-modified oncogene mRNAs particularly cyclin E2. We applied a structure-based virtual screening of FDA-approved drugs and identified tegaserod as a potential YTHDF1 inhibitor. Tegaserod blocks the direct binding of YTHDF1 with m6A-modified mRNAs and inhibits YTHDF1-regulated mRNA translation. Moreover, tegaserod inhibits leukemogenesis in vitro and in mice, phenocopying the loss of YTHDF1. Together, our study defines YTHDF1 as an integral regulator of AML progression at the translational level and identifies tegaserod as a potential therapeutic agent for AML by targeting YTHDF1.
