WTAP and m6A-dependent circRNAs modulation during stress response in acute myeloid leukemia progenitor cells

ABSTRACT: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is one of the most prevalent and conserved RNA modifications. It controls several biological processes, including the biogenesis and function of circular RNAs (circRNAs), which are a class of covalently closed-single stranded RNAs. Several studies have revealed that proteotoxic stress response induction could be a relevant anticancer therapy in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). Furthermore, it has emerged a strong molecular interaction between the m6A mRNA modification factors and the suppression of the proteotoxic stress response. Since the proteasome inhibition leading to the imbalance in protein homeostasis is strictly linked to the stress response induction, we investigated the role of Bortezomib (Btz) on m6A regulation and in particular its impact on the modulation of m6A-dependent circRNAs expression. Here, we show that the treatment of AML cells with Btz downregulated the expression of the m6A regulator WTAP at translational level, mainly because of increased oxidative stress. Indeed, Btz treatment promoted oxidative stress, with ROS generation and HMOX-1 activation and administration of the reducing agent N-acetylcysteine restored WTAP expression. Additionally, we identified m6A-modified circRNAs modulated by Btz treatment, including circHIPK3, which is implicated in protein folding and oxidative stress regulation upon silencing. These results highlight the intricate molecular networks involved in oxidative and ER stress induction in AML cells following proteotoxic stress response, laying the groundwork for future therapeutic strategies targeting these pathways.

High-resolution mapping reveals a conserved, widespread, dynamic meiotically regulated mRNA methylation program [Mm]

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a common modification of mRNA, with potential roles in fine-tuning the RNA life cycle, but little is known about the pathways regulating this process and its physiological role. Here, we used mass-spectrometry to identify a dense network of proteins physically interacting with METTL3, a core component of the methyltransferase complex, and show that two of them, WTAP and KIAA1429, are required for methylation. Combining high resolution m6A-Seq with knockdown of WTAP allowed us to define accurate maps, at near single-nucleotide resolution, of sites of mRNA methylation across four dynamic programs in human and mouse, including development, differentiation, reprogramming and immune response. Internal WTAP-dependent methylation sites were largely static across the different surveyed conditions and present in the majority of mRNAs. However, methylations were found at much lower levels within highly expressed mRNAs, and methylation is inversely correlated with mRNA stability, consistent with a role in establishing an overall basal, cell-type invariant, distribution of degradation rates. In addition, we identify thousands of WTAP-independent methylation sites at transcription initiation sites, forming part of the mRNA cap structure. We show that the methylations occur at the first transcribed nucleotide, and find that thousands of transcripts are present in different isoforms differing in the methylation state of the first transcribed nucleotide, a previously unappreciated complexity of the transcriptome. Together, our data sheds new light on the proteomic and transcriptional underpinnings of this epitranscriptomic modification in mammals. Examination of m6A methylation across different knockdowns using shRNAs in mouse embryonic fibroblasts, in embyronic and adult brains, and in dendritic cell stimulated with LPS.

m6A Modification Regulates Planarian Regeneration [MeRIP-seq]

Project description:The fundamental of regeneration process of invertebrates involves the renewal, differentiation and reprogramming of stem cell in an orchestrated manner. It has been known that N6-methyladenosine (m6A) regulates stem cell renewal and differentiation. It is still unclear if m6A is crucial for the regeneration at whole-organism level. Here, we demonstrate that wtap knockdown mediated m6A depletion impairs planarian regeneration upon amputation. The cell cycle related genes displayed decreased m6A while increased expression levels in response to wtap knockdown. The m6A depletion induced phenotypes can be rescued by double-knocking down these genes together with wtap, suggesting that m6A-mediated cell cycle controls planarian regeneration. Further analysis combining the single-cell sequencing unveils a unique neuronal progenitor-like cell type, named NCC and characterized by specific expression of grn, which is indispensable for neuroregeneration. Overall, our study uncovered an essential role of wtap-mediated m6A modification in regulating stem cell population dynamics and homeostasis in terms of general-body regeneration.

LC-MS/MS analysis of co-immunoprecipitation products of METTL3

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation of mRNA by the methyltransferase complex (MTC), with core components including METTL3-METTL14 heterodimers and Wilms’ tumor 1-associated protein (WTAP), contributes to breast tumorigenesis, but the mechanism of MTC assembly remains elusive. Here, we identify a novel cleaved form METTL3a (residues 239-580 of METTL3), that is highly expressed in breast cancer. Furthermore, we find that both METTL3a and full-length METTL3 are required for MTC assembly, RNA m6A deposition, as well as cancer cell proliferation. Mechanistically, we find that METTL3a is required for METTL3-METTL3 interaction, which is a prerequisite step for recruitment of WTAP in MTC assembly. Analysis of m6A sequencing data shows that depletion of METTL3a globally disrupts m6A methylation, and METTL3a mediates mTOR activation via m6A-mediated suppression of TMEM127 expression. Consequently, we find that METTL3 cleavage is mediated by proteasome in an mTOR-dependent manner, revealing positive regulatory feedback between METTL3a and mTOR signaling. Our findings reveal METTL3a as an important component for MTC assembly, and suggest the METTL3a-mTOR axis as a potential therapeutic target for breast cancer.

Arabidopsis Messenger RNA N6-methyladenosine Demethylation Regulates Plant Development

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal modification in the messenger RNA (mRNA) of all higher eukaryotes. This modification has been shown to be reversible in mammals; it is installed by a methyltransferase heterodimer complex of METTL3 and METTL14 bound with WTAP, and reversed by iron(II)- and Î±-ketoglutarate-dependent demethylases FTO and ALKBH5. This modification exhibits significant functional roles in various biological processes. The m6A modification as a RNA mark is recognized by reader proteins, such as YTH domain family proteins and HNRNPA2B1; m6A can also act as a structure switch to affect RNA-protein interactions for biological regulation. In Arabidopsis thaliana, the methyltransferase subunit MTA (the plant orthologue of human METTL3, encoded by At4g10760) was well characterized and FIP37 (the plant orthologue of human WTAP) was first identified as the interacting partner of MTA. Here we report the discovery and characterization of reversible m6A methylation mediated by AtALKBH10B (encoded by At4g02940) in A. thaliana, and noticeable roles of this RNA demethylase in affecting plant development and floral transition. Our findings reveal potential broad functions of reversible mRNA methylation in plants. m6A peaks were identified from wild type Columbia-0 and atalkbh10b-1 mutant in two biological replicates

Profiling of N6-methyladenosine in HepG2 cells: SETD2, METTL3, METTL14 or WTAP knockdown and control cells

Project description:SETD2 is the specific methyltransferase of H3K36me3, while METTL3, METTL14 and WTAP are the components of m6A methyltransferase complex. To understand the global effect of H3K36me3 on m6A modification, we compared the m6A profiling in SETD2 and METTL3, METTL14 or WTAP knockdown HepG2 cells, and found depletion of H3K36me3 by SETD2 silencing globally reduced m6A in human transcriptome. What’s more, most of the SETD2-dependent hypomethylation sites also responded to knockdown of METTL3, METTL14, or WTAP.

Life without stress protection – consequences of abrogating the heat shock response in S. cerevisiae

Project description:The response to proteotoxic stresses such as heat shock is an ancient and ubiquitous transcriptional program allowing organisms to maintain protein homeostasis under changing environmental conditions. We depleted or deleted the three stress-specific transcription factors, Hsf1, Msn2 and Msn4, in S. cerevisiae and determined the effects on the transcriptome and proteome. Msn2/4 are responsible for a broad transcriptional reprogramming which includes i. a. the response to oxidative stress as well as biosynthesis of the protective sugar trehalose and glycolysis enzymes. Hsf1 activates the synthesis of molecular chaperones. In the absence of stress protection, thermal stress results in massive protein aggregation including many essential proteins. As a last resort to sustain life this triggers the transcriptomic induction of sporulation likely via the cell wall integrity signaling pathway.
