FTO regulates adult neurogenesis through modulating the dynamics of N6-methyladenosine

ABSTRACT: Fat mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO) is a member of the Fe (II) and oxoglutarate-dependent AlkB oxygenase family, and has been linked to obesity and intellectual disability. However, the role of FTO in neurodevelopment and neurogenesis remains largely unknown. Here, we show that FTO is expressed in adult neural stem cells (aNSCs) and neurons, and displays dynamic expression during postnatal neurodevelopment. The loss of FTO leads to the decreased brain size and body weight. We found that FTO deficiency could reduce the proliferation and neuronal differentiation of aNSCs in vivo, which leads to the impaired learning and memory. Given the role of FTO as a demethylase of N6-methyladenosine (m6A), we further performed the genome-wide m6A profiling and observed the dynamic m6A modification during postnatal neurodevelopment. The loss of FTO could lead to the altered m6A modifications on the mRNAs of several key components of BDNF pathway. These results together suggest that FTO play important roles in neurogenesis and learning and memory.

Quantitative Proteomics of Mouse Liver (FTO-KO,WT) in response to DEN injection

Project description:Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the FTO gene encoding a m6A demthylase are associated with obesity and cancer development. However, the functional role of FTO in the developemnt of progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) as a proteotypic obesity-associated cancer remains unclear. Here, we have generated mice with hepatic FTO deficiency (FTOL-KO) and subjected them to DEN induced HCC-development. FTOL-KO mice exhibit increased HCC burden. While control mice exhibit a dynamic regulation of FTO upon induction of liver damage, this response is abrogated in mice lacking FTO. Proteomic analyses revealed that liver damage-induced increases in FTO expression promotes m6A-demethylation of CUL4A reducing its protein expression. Functionally, knockdown of CUL4A restores the increased hepatocyte proliferation observed upon loss of FTO. Collectively, our study reveals a protective role for FTO-dependent dynamic m6A mRNA demethylation of CUL4A in the initiation of HCC development.

The interacted proteins of ALKBH5 and FTO identified by IP-mass

Project description:Since m6A demethylases (FTO and ALKBH5) have been reported to be involved in pre-mRNA splicing regulation, we hypothesized that dynamic m6A distribution during mRNA maturation might involve removal of m6A in internal exons by FTO or ALKBH5 accompanied by splicing factors. To explore this we performed pull-down assays coupled with protein mass spectrometry.

m6A IP sequencing analysis of m6A mRNA methylation regulation by FTO in melanoma cells

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation is the most abundant internal chemical modifications in eukaryotic messenger RNA (mRNA) as well as long non-coding RNA (lncRNA). Recently, m6A RNA methylation research was revived by the discovery of the fat mass- and obesity-associated protein (FTO) as the first RNA demethylase, implicating that m6A RNA methylation is a reversible and dynamic modification and may have critical biological functions. Emerging evidence has shown that m6A modifications in mRNAs and lncRNAs play crucial roles in regulating RNA fate and function in biological processes in the past several years. As the first identified RNA demethylase that regulates the demethylation of target mRNAs, FTO has been reported to play an oncogenic role in leukemia and glioblastoma stem cells. To identify the target genes of FTO in melanoma cells, we used m6A IP seq coupled with RNA seq to determine the potential demethylation and gene targets across the whole transcriptome for FTO, and identified more than 1,000 genes.

FTO demethyltion of N6-methyladenosine depends on the RRACH motif [m6A-seq]

Project description:The fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) protein is a well-characterized demethylase that removes N6-methyladenosine (m6A) from animal mRNAs. However, it is unclear yet how the demethylation operates in living cells. In this study, we applied genome-wide approaches to study how FTO finds its demethylation targets in human cells. We overexpressed FTO in human HeLa cells, demonstrating that FTO effectively removes m6A from the RRACH motif enriched in the 3’UTR regions and leaves m6A at other motifs unaffected. RRACH elements are clearly enriched at FTO binding sites; however, m6A has a lower tendency to be removed from the FTO-bound RRACH. Taken together with the experimental validaton results, we propose a model in which FTO effectivly recognizes m6A-containing RRACH motifs in RNAs, leading to a faster demethylation and dissociation kinetic than the association, and consequently undectable FTO-mRNA association. However, when FTO binds to the non-m6A RRACH motif, the binding has a lower dissociation kinetics, yielding the detectable FTO binding signals which would enable FTO to have roles in regulating other mRNA processing events.

Downregulation of m6A methyltransferase in the hippocampus of Tyrobp-/- mice and implications for learning and memory deficits

Project description:Loss-of-function mutations in the gene that encodes TYRO protein kinase-binding protein (TYROBP) cause Nasu-Hakola disease, a heritable disease resembling Alzheimer's disease (AD). Methylation of N6 methyl-adenosine (m6A) in mRNA plays essential roles in learning and memory. Aberrant m6A methylation has been detected in AD patients and animal models. In the present study, Tyrobp−/− mice showed learning and memory deficits in the Morris water maze, which worsened with age. Tyrobp−/− mice also showed elevated levels of total tau, Ser202/Thr205-phosphorylated tau and amyloid β in the hippocampus and cerebrocortex, which worsened with aging. The m6A methyltransferase components METTL3, METTL14, and WTAP were downregulated in Tyrobp−/− mice, while expression of demethylases that remove the m6A modification (e.g., FTO and ALKBH5) were unaltered. Methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing identified 498 m6A peaks that were upregulated in Tyrobp−/− mice, and 312 m6A peaks that were downregulated. Bioinformatic analysis suggested that most of these m6A peaks occur in sequences near stop codons and 3′-untranslated regions. These findings suggest an association between m6A RNA methylation and pathological TYROBP deficiency.

Transcriptome of control and FTO-knockdown HOC313 cells

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is the major post-transcriptional modification present in mammalian mRNA. m6A controls fundamental biological processes including cell proliferation, but the molecular mechanism remains unclear. Herein, we demonstrate that the m6A demethylase fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) controls the cell cycle by targeting cyclin D1, the key regulator required for G1 phase progression. FTO silencing suppressed cyclin D1 expression and induced G1 arrest. FTO depletion upregulated cyclin D1 m6A modification, which in turn accelerated the degradation of cyclin D1 mRNA. Importantly, m6A modification of cyclin D1 oscillates in a cell cycle-dependent manner; m6A levels were suppressed during the G1 phase and enhanced during other phases. Low m6A levels during G1 were associated with nuclear translocation of FTO from the cytosol. Furthermore, nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of FTO is regulated by Casein Kinase II-mediated phosphorylation at Thr 150 of FTO. Our results highlight the role of m6A in regulating cyclin D1 mRNA stability, and add a new layer of complexity to cell cycle regulation.

A lncRNA from the FTO locus acts as an inhibitor of mRNA m6A methylation and p53 tumor suppression

Project description:The FTO gene locus has been linked to cancer and obesity through encoded N6-methyladenosine (m6A) demethylase FTO or inherited genomic variants (e.g. intronic single-nucleotide polymorphisms). Here we demonstrate that FTO-IT1, a long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) transcribed from a FTO gene intron, is upregulated during prostate cancer (PCa) progression and positively correlated with poor survival of patients with tumors only expressing wild-type p53. We show that RBM15, a mRNA/substrate binding subunit of the m6A methyltransferase complex binds and increases mRNA m6A methylation and stability of p53 transcriptional target genes; however, FTO-IT1 overexpression abolishes these effects by blocking RBM15 binding of p53 target gene mRNAs. Therapeutic targeting of FTO-IT1 restores mRNA m6A level and p53 signaling and inhibits PCa tumor growth in mice. Our study identifies FTO-IT1 lncRNA as a bono fide inhibitor of m6A methylation and p53 tumor suppression and nominates FTO-IT1 as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target of cancer.

N6-methyladenosine demethylation by the fat mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO) defines tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance in leukemia

Project description:The discovery of activating mutations in receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) leads to clinical testing of RTK inhibitors (TKIs). However, the rapid acquisition of resistance limits TKI effectiveness. Here we establish TKI-resistant cells that propagate in the absence of RTK signaling. Relative to sensitive cells, TKI-resistant cells display decreased N6-methyladenosine (m6A), a ubiquitous and reversible modification on RNA, but upregulated fat mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO), an m6A demethylase. Notably, the naïve leukemia cell populations are heterogeneous with respect to FTO levels. Cells with higher intrinsic and transient FTO expression demonstrate reduction of m6A methylation and TKI sensitivity with higher tumorigenic. Genetic or pharmacological dysfunction of FTO increases m6A abundance sensitizing resistant cells to TKIs. Mechanistically, FTO-mediated m6A demethylation promotes mRNA stability and protein translation rate, upregulating oncogenes that are indispensable for survival and proliferation. Our findings therefore establish a role of FTO-dependent m6A demethylation for TKI-resistance, offering a therapeutic window for incorporating m6A modulators in counteracting acquired TKI resistance.
