Project description:Obesity is associated with impaired β-adrenergic receptor (Adrb1-3) signaling and lipolysis, leading to aberrant white adipose tissue (WAT) growth. WAT research has been centered on transcriptional and posttranslational regulations, but posttranscriptional regulation and mRNA modifications are poorly understood. Here, we unveil a METTL14/N6-methyladenosine (m6A) paradigm guiding β-adrenergic signaling and lipolysis. METTL14 complex installs m6A on RNA, regulating mRNA fate and translation. We found that feeding and insulin increased adipose Mettl14 and m6A levels. Adipose Mettl14 and m6A were upregulated in high fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity. Ablation of adipose Mettl14 decreased Adrb2, Adrb3, Atgl (encoding lipase), and Cig-58 (Atgl activator) transcript m6A contents while increasing their translation and protein levels, thereby enhancing adipose β-adrenergic signaling and lipolysis. Consequently, adipocyte-specific Mettl14 knockout mice were resistant to HFD-induced obesity, insulin resistance, glucose intolerance, and NAFLD. These results unravel a METTL14/m6A-based epitranscriptomic mechanism governing β-adrenergic signaling, lipolysis, and adipose growth in health and disease.

Project description:m6A mRNA methylation in brown adipose tissue regulates systemic insulin sensitivity. We performed N6-methyladenosine (m6A) profiling and RNA seq of brown adipose tissue (BAT) from control and Mettl14-KO mice. Meanwhile, we performed RNA-seq for control and Mettl14-KO human BAT cell line as well.

Project description:Post-transcriptional m6A methylation on mRNA plays a key role in neural development. Here, we specifically depleted Mettl14 (a key component of m6A complex) in retina progenitor cells by crossing Mettl14 fl/fl mice with the Chx10-Egfp/Cre mouse line and investigated Mettl14 depletion-induced m6A alteration in developing retinas using m6A-seq.

Project description:A comparison of the translating RNAs in UCP1-positive cells from the classical BAT, the inguinal WAT, and the perigonadal WAT. We find genes common to all UCP1-positive cells independent of anatomical location, as well as genes specifically enriched in one group versus the others. Results provide a portrait of gene expression in UCP1-positive cells in vivo. Translating RNAs in UCP1-positive cells were purified from 6 week old female UCP1-TRAP mice after 2 weeks at 4 degC. N=3 for iWAT, N=2 for pgWAT, and N=3 for BAT.

Project description:METTL3 and METTL14 are two components that form the core heterodimer of the main RNA m6A methyltransferase complex (MTC, also known as m6A writer) that installs m6A. Surprisingly, depletion of METTL3 or METTL14 displayed distinct effects on mouse embryonic stem cell (mESC) self-renewal. While comparable global hypo-methylation in RNA m6A was observed in Mettl3 or Mettl14 knockout mESCs, respectively. Mettl14 knockout led to a globally decreased nascent RNA synthesis, whereas Mettl3 depletion resulted in transcription upregulation, suggesting that METTL14 might possess an m6A-indenepent role in gene regulation. We found that METTL14 colocalizes with the repressive H3K27me3 modification and PRC2 complex. Mechanically, METTL14, but not METTL3, recognizes H3K27me3 and recruits KDM6B to induce H3K27me3 demethylation independent of METTL3. Depletion of METTL14 thus led to a global increase in H3K27me3 level along with a global gene suppression . The regulation of H3K27me3 by METTL14 is essential to the transition of mESCs from self-renewal to differentiation. This work reveals a regulation mechanism on heterochromatin by METTL14 in a manner distinct from METTL3 and independently of m6A, and critically impacts transcriptional regulation, stemness maintenance and differentiation of mESCs.
