Reversible methylation of m6Am in the 5′ cap controls mRNA stability

ABSTRACT: Internal bases in mRNA can be subjected to modifications that influence the fate of mRNA in cells. One of the most prevalent modified bases is found at the 5′ end of mRNA, at the first encoded nucleotide adjacent to the 7-methylguanosine cap. Here we show that this nucleotide, N6,2′-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am), is a reversible modification that influences cellular mRNA fate. Using a transcriptome-wide map of m6Am we find that m6Am-initiated transcripts are markedly more stable than mRNAs that begin with other nucleotides. We show that the enhanced stability of m6Am-initiated transcripts is due to resistance to the mRNA-decapping enzyme DCP2. Moreover, we find that m6Am is selectively demethylated by fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO). FTO preferentially demethylates m6Am rather than N6-methyladenosine (m6A), and reduces the stability of m6Am mRNAs. Together, these findings show that the methylation status of m6Am in the 5′ cap is a dynamic and reversible epitranscriptomic modification that determines mRNA stability.

FTO-mediated cytoplasmic m6Am demethylation adjusts stem-like properties in colorectal cancer cell

Project description:Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a small but critical cell population for cancer biology since they display inherent resistance to standard therapies and give rise to metastases. Despite accruing evidence establishing a link between deregulation of epitranscriptome-related players and tumorigenic process, the role of messenger RNA (mRNA) modifications dynamic in the regulation of CSC properties remains poorly understood. Here, we show that the cytoplasmic pool of fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) impedes CSC abilities in colorectal cancer through its m6Am (N6,2'-O-dimethyladenosine) demethylase activity. While m6Am is strategically located next to the m7G-mRNA cap, its biological function is not well understood and has not been addressed in cancer. Low FTO expression in patient-derived cell lines elevates m6Am level in mRNA which results in enhanced in vivo tumorigenicity and chemoresistance. Inhibition of the nuclear m6Am methyltransferase, PCIF1/CAPAM, fully reverses this phenotype, stressing the role of m6Am modification in stem-like properties acquisition. FTO-mediated regulation of m6Am marking constitutes a novel, reversible pathway controlling CSC abilities. Altogether, our findings bring to light the first biological function of the m6Am modification and its potential adverse consequences for colorectal cancer management.

CROWN-seq profiling of snRNA m6Am modification in pig ST cells upon PRV infection

Project description:Fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) was discovered as the first RNA demethylase and mediates the demethylation of N6,2′-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am), a prevalent RNA modification adjacent to the 5’ cap. Despite its significance, the regulation of the m6Am demethylase and the potential impact of virus infection on FTO remain largely unexplored. In this study, we show that the alphaherpesvirus pseudorabies virus (PRV) triggers phosphorylation of FTO and that this phosphorylation is caused by the viral serine/threonine protein kinase UL13. To test whether the phosphorylated FTO can result in different demethylation on snRNA, we performed CROWN-seq to quantify m6Am stoichiometry in cells.

Differential m6A, m6Am, and m1A Demethylation Mediated by FTO in Cell Nucleus and Cytoplasm

Project description:FTO, the first RNA demethylase discovered, mediates the demethylation of N6-methyladenosine (m6A), installed internally on messenger RNA, and N6,2′-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am), occurring at the +1 position from the 5’ cap. Despite extensive recent research on FTO, its physiological impact on cellular processes has yet to be fully elucidated. Here, we demonstrate that the cellular distribution of FTO is distinct among different cell lines, which critically affects the access of FTO to different RNA substrates. FTO binds multiple RNA substrates, including mRNA, U6 RNA, and tRNA. It mainly targets internal m6A when located in the cell nucleus and preferentially demethylates m6Am when residing in the cytoplasm. The expression levels of transcripts containing internal m6A are associated with the alteration of the FTO more so than transcripts containing m6Am. We also discover that N1-methyladenosine (m1A) in tRNA is a main substrate of FTO, with the FTO-catalyzed demethylation of target tRNAs repressing protein synthesis. Collectively, FTO-mediated RNA demethylation affects both mRNA level and translation through distinct pathways.

Identification of the m6Am Methyltransferase PCIF1 Reveals the Location and Functions of m6Am in the Transcriptome

Project description:mRNAs are regulated by nucleotide modifications that influence their cellular fate. Two of the most abundant modified nucleotides are N6-methyladenosine (m6A), found within mRNAs, and N6,2′-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am), which is found at the first transcribed nucleotide. Distinguishing these modifications in mapping studies has been difficult. Here, we identify and biochemically characterize PCIF1, the methyltransferase that generates m6Am. We find that PCIF1 binds and is dependent on the m7G cap. By depleting PCIF1, we generated transcriptome-wide maps that distinguish m6Am and m6A. We find that m6A and m6Am misannotations arise from mRNA isoforms with alternative transcription start sites (TSSs). These isoforms contain m6Am that maps to “internal” sites, increasing the likelihood of misannotation. We find that depleting PCIF1 does not substantially affect mRNA translation but is associated with reduced stability of a subset of m6Am-annotated mRNAs. The discovery of PCIF1 and our accurate mapping technique will facilitate future studies to characterize m6Am’s function.

Absolute transcription-start nucleotide m6Am stoichiometry quantification by CROWN-Seq

Project description:The 5’ end RNA molecules transcribed by RNA polymerase II are known to be modified in human cells. Specifically, A-initiated transcripts can be methylated at both the 2’-O position in the ribose (2’-O-methylation, or cap-1) and the N6-position in the base (N6-methylation). Almost all A-initiated transcripts have the cap-1 modification, however, the N6-methylation is optional. As a result, A-initiated transcripts in the cell can be Am (cap-1 only) or m6Am (cap-1 and N6-methylation) modified. To study m6Am, we developed CROWN-seq, which simultaneously obtains the transcription-start information and the stoichiometry of N6-methyl. With CROWN-seq, we found that the previous m6Am mapping studies highly underestimated the diversity of the transcription-start site (nucleotide) of the transcriptome. In this study, we used CROWN-seq to reveal m6Am sites and stoichiometry among different human cell lines. We demonstrated that m6Am stoichiometry in mRNA is in general high, however, m6Am stoichiometry in snRNA, snoRNA, and their pseudogenes is more variable.

m6A/m-Seq of mouse adult cortex of Mettl3 cKO or Fto cKO mice

Project description:N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) and N6,2′-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am) are abundant mRNA modifications that regulate transcript processing and translation. The role of both, here termed m6A/m, in the stress response in the adult brain in vivo are currently unknown. Here, we investigated the effect of gene deletion of Mettl3, a m6A methyltransferase, and Fto, a m6A and m6Am demethlyase, induced in adulthood in excitatory neurons of the neocortex and hippocampus (Camk2a-Cre Mettl3 or Fto cKO) on the cortical epitranscriptome. PolyA-RNA-fragments from 3-5 replicates per group were processed both as m6A/m-sample (RNA immunoprecipiation RIP with an m6A and m6Am antibody) and RNA-input sample.

The mammalian cap-specific m6Am RNA methyltransferase PCIF1 regulates transcript levels in mouse tissues

Project description:The 5' end of eukaryotic mRNAs is protected by the m7G-cap structure. The transcription start site nucleotide is ribose methylated (Nm) in many eukaryotes, while an adenosine at this position is further methylated at the N6 position (m6A) by the mammalian Phosphorylated CTD-interacting Factor 1 (PCIF1) to generate m6Am. Here we show that while loss of cap-specific m6Am in mice does not affect viability or fertility, the Pcif1 mutants display reduced body-weight. Transcriptome analyses of mutant mouse tissues support a role for the cap-specific m6Am modification in stabilizing transcripts. In contrast, the Drosophila Pcif1 is catalytically-dead, but like its mammalian counterpart it retains the ability to associate with the Ser5-phosphorylated CTD of RNA pol II. Finally, we show that the Trypanosoma Pcif1 is an m6Am methylase that contributes to the N6,N6,2?-O-trimethyladenosine (m62Am) in the hypermethylated cap4 structure of Trypanosomatids. Thus, PCIF1 has evolved to function in catalytic and non-catalytic roles.
