Comprehensive Analysis of mRNA Methylation Reveals Enrichment in 3' UTRs and Near Stop Codons

ABSTRACT: Here, we use a novel technique for locating regions of N6-adenosine methylation (m6A) throughout the transcriptome and present a profile of m6A sites in the mouse brain. Our use of methylated RNA immunoprecipitation combined with RNA-seq (MeRIP-Seq) identifies thousands of RNAs which contain m6A sites. In addition, we find that regions of m6A formation are particularly enriched near stop codons, which might provide clues into the potential funciton of this highly prevalent RNA modificaiton.

Comprehensive analysis of mRNA methylation reveals enrichment in 3' UTRs and near stop codons.

Project description:Methylation of the N(6) position of adenosine (m(6)A) is a posttranscriptional modification of RNA with poorly understood prevalence and physiological relevance. The recent discovery that FTO, an obesity risk gene, encodes an m(6)A demethylase implicates m(6)A as an important regulator of physiological processes. Here, we present a method for transcriptome-wide m(6)A localization, which combines m(6)A-specific methylated RNA immunoprecipitation with next-generation sequencing (MeRIP-Seq). We use this method to identify mRNAs of 7,676 mammalian genes that contain m(6)A, indicating that m(6)A is a common base modification of mRNA. The m(6)A modification exhibits tissue-specific regulation and is markedly increased throughout brain development. We find that m(6)A sites are enriched near stop codons and in 3' UTRs, and we uncover an association between m(6)A residues and microRNA-binding sites within 3' UTRs. These findings provide a resource for identifying transcripts that are substrates for adenosine methylation and reveal insights into the epigenetic regulation of the mammalian transcriptome.

The helicase Ded1p controls use of near-cognate translation initiation codons in 5' UTRs.

Project description:The conserved and essential DEAD-box RNA helicase Ded1p from yeast and its mammalian orthologue DDX3 are critical for the initiation of translation1. Mutations in DDX3 are linked to tumorigenesis2-4 and intellectual disability5, and the enzyme is targeted by a range of viruses6. How Ded1p and its orthologues engage RNAs during the initiation of translation is unknown. Here we show, by integrating transcriptome-wide analyses of translation, RNA structure and Ded1p-RNA binding, that the effects of Ded1p on the initiation of translation are connected to near-cognate initiation codons in 5' untranslated regions. Ded1p associates with the translation pre-initiation complex at the mRNA entry channel and repressing the activity of Ded1p leads to the accumulation of RNA structure in 5' untranslated regions, the initiation of translation from near-cognate start codons immediately upstream of these structures and decreased protein synthesis from the corresponding main open reading frames. The data reveal a program for the regulation of translation that links Ded1p, the activation of near-cognate start codons and mRNA structure. This program has a role in meiosis, in which a marked decrease in the levels of Ded1p is accompanied by the activation of the alternative translation initiation sites that are seen when the activity of Ded1p is repressed. Our observations indicate that Ded1p affects translation initiation by controlling the use of near-cognate initiation codons that are proximal to mRNA structure in 5' untranslated regions.

SMG-6 mRNA cleavage stalls ribosomes near premature stop codons in vivo.

Project description:Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) protects cells from the toxic and potentially dominant effects of truncated proteins. Targeting of mRNAs with early stop codons is mediated by the ribosome and spatiotemporally aligned with translation termination. Previously we identified a novel NMD intermediate: ribosomes stalled on cleaved stop codons, raising the possibility that NMD begins even prior to ribosome removal from the stop codon. Here we show that this intermediate is the result of mRNA cleavage by the endonuclease SMG-6. Our work supports a model in which ribosomes stall secondary to SMG-6 mRNA cleavage in Caenorhabditis elegans and humans, i.e. that the novel NMD intermediate occurs after a prior ribosome elicits NMD. Our genetic analysis of C. elegans' SMG-6 supports a central role for SMG-6 in metazoan NMD, and provides a context for evaluating its function in other metazoans.

Selection for tandem stop codons in ciliate species with reassigned stop codons.

Project description:The failure of mRNA translation machinery to recognize a stop codon as a termination signal and subsequent translation of the 3' untranslated region (UTR) is referred to as stop codon readthrough, the frequency of which is related to the length, composition, and structure of mRNA sequences downstream of end-of-gene stop codons. Secondary in-frame stop codons within a few positions downstream of the primary stop codons, so-called tandem stop codons (TSCs), serve as backup termination signals, which limit the effects of readthrough: polypeptide product degradation, mislocalization, and aggregation. In this study, ciliate species with UAA and UAG stop codons reassigned to code for glutamine are found to possess statistical excesses of TSCs at the beginning of their 3' UTRs. The overrepresentation of TSCs in these species is greater than that observed in standard code organisms. Though the overall numbers of TSCs are lower in most species with alternative stop codons because they use fewer than three unique stop codons, the relatively great overrepresentation of TSCs in alternative-code ciliate species suggests that there exist stronger selective pressures to maintain TSCs in these organisms compared to standard code organisms.

VIRMA mediates preferential m6A mRNA methylation in 3'UTR and near stop codon and associates with alternative polyadenylation

Project description:N6-methyadenosine (m6A) is enriched in 3`UTR (3` untranslated region) and near stop codon of mature polyadenylated mRNAs in mammalian systems and has regulatory roles in eukaryotic mRNA transcriptome switch. Significantly, the mechanism for this modification preference remains unknown, however. Herein we report a characterization of the full m6A methyltransferase complex in HeLa cells identifying METTL3/METTL14/WTAP/VIRMA/HAKAI/ZC3H13 as the key components, and we show that VIRMA mediates preferential mRNA methylation in 3`UTR and near stop codon. Biochemical studies reveal that VIRMA recruits the catalytic core components METTL3/METTL14/WTAP to guide region-selective methylations. Around 60% of VIRMA mRNA immunoprecipitation targets manifest strong m6A enrichment in 3`UTR. Depletions of VIRMA and METTL3 induce 3`UTR lengthening of several hundred mRNAs with over 50% targets in common. VIRMA associates with polyadenylation cleavage factors CPSF5 and CPSF6 in an RNA-dependent manner. Depletion of CPSF5 leads to significant shortening of 3`UTR of over 2,800 mRNAs, 84% of which are modified with m6A. Together our studies provide insights into m6A deposition specificity in 3`UTR and its correlation with alternative polyadenylation.

m6A level and isoform characterization sequencing (m6A-LAIC-seq) reveal the census and complexity of the m6A epitranscriptome

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a widespread reversible chemical modification of RNAs, implicated in many aspects of RNA metabolism. Little quantitative information exists as to either how many transcript copies of particular genes are m6A modified (âm6A levelsâ), or the relationship of m6A modification(s) to alternative RNA isoforms. To deconvolute the m6A epitranscriptome, we developed m6A level and isoform-characterization sequencing (m6A-LAIC-seq). We found that cells exhibit a broad range of non-stoichiometric m6A levels with cell type specificity. At the level of isoform characterization, we discovered widespread differences in use of tandem alternative polyadenylation (APA) sites by methylated and nonmethylated transcript isoforms of individual genes. Strikingly, there is a strong bias for methylated transcripts to be coupled with proximal APA sites, resulting in shortened 3â untranslated regions (3â-UTRs), while nonmethylated transcript isoforms tend to use distal APA sites. m6A-LAIC-seq yields a new perspective on transcriptome complexity and links APA usage to m6A modifications. m6A-LAIC-seq of H1-ESC and GM12878 cell lines, each cell line has two replicates

Conservation of tandem stop codons in yeasts.

Project description:BackgroundIt has been long thought that the stop codon in a gene is followed by another stop codon that acts as a backup if the real one is read through by a near-cognate tRNA. The existence of such 'tandem stop codons', however, remains elusive.ResultsHere we show that a statistical excess of stop codons has evolved at the third codon downstream of the real stop codon UAA in yeasts. Comparative analysis indicates that stop codons at this location are considerably more conserved than sense codons, suggesting that these tandem stop codons are maintained by selection. We evaluated the influence of expression levels of genes and other biological factors on the distribution of tandem stop codons. Our results suggest that expression level is an important factor influencing the presence of tandem stop codons.ConclusionsOur study demonstrates the existence of tandem stop codons, which represent one of many meaningful genomic features that are driven by relatively weak selective forces.
