Project description:Genetic drivers of cancer can be dysregulated through epigenetic modifications of DNA. While the critical role of DNA 5-methylcytosine (5mC) in the regulation of transcription is recognized, the functions of other non-canonical DNA modifications remain obscure. Here, we report the identification of novel N(6)-methyladenine (N6-mA) DNA modifications in human tissues and implicate this epigenetic regulation in human disease, the highly malignant brain cancer, glioblastoma. Glioblastoma upregulates N6-mA levels, which co-localize with heterochromatic histone modifications, namely H3K9me3. N6-mA levels are dynamically regulated by the DNA demethylase, ALKBH1, to transcriptionally silence oncogenic pathways through decreasing chromatin accessibility. Targeting the N6-mA regulator, ALKBH1, in patient-derived human glioblastoma models inhibited tumor cell proliferation and extended survival of tumor-bearing mice, supporting this novel DNA modification as a potential new molecular therapeutic target for glioblastoma. Collectively, our results uncover a novel epigenetic node in cancer through the DNA modification, N6-mA.

Project description:In human cells, 5-methylcytosine (5mC) DNA modification plays an important role in gene regulation. However, N6-methyladenine (6mA) DNA modification, which is predominantly present in prokaryotes, is considered to be absent in human genomic DNA. Here, using single molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing on human blood, we show that DNA 6mA modification is extensively present in human genome, accounting for ~0.051% of the total adenines. [G/C]AGG[C/T] was the most significant motif associated with 6mA modification. 6mA sites are enriched in the exon coding regions and are associated with transcriptional activation. DNA N6-methyladenine and N6-demethyladenine modification in human are mediated by methyltransferase N6AMT1 and demethylase ALKBH1, respectively. The 6mA abundance is significantly lower in cancer tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues, which is accompanied with decreased N6AMT1 and increased ALKBH1 levels. Decrease of 6mA modification level stimulated tumorigenesis in human. Collectively, our results demonstrate that 6mA DNA modification is present in human tissues, and we describe a potential role of the N6AMT1/ALKBH1-6mA regulatory axis in the progression of human cancer.

Project description:The recent discovery of N6-methyladenine (N6-mA) in mammalian genomes suggests that it may serve as an epigenetic regulatory mechanism. However, the biological role of N6-mA and the molecular pathways that exert its function remain unclear. Here we show that N6-mA has a key role in changing the epigenetic landscape during cell fate transitions in early development. We found that N6-mA is upregulated during the development of mouse trophoblast stem cells, specifically at regions of stress-induced DNA double helix destabilization (SIDD). Regions of SIDD are conducive to topological stress-induced unpairing of the double helix and have critical roles in organizing large-scale chromatin structures. We show that the presence of N6-mA reduces the in vitro interactions by more than 500-fold between SIDD and SATB1, a crucial chromatin organizer that interacts with SIDD regions. Deposition of N6-mA also antagonizes SATB1 function in vivo by preventing its binding to chromatin. Concordantly, N6-mA functions at the boundaries between euchromatin and heterochromatin to restrict the spread of euchromatin. Repression of SIDD–SATB1 interactions mediated by N6-mA is essential for gene regulation during trophoblast development in cell culture models and in vivo. Overall, our findings demonstrate an unexpected molecular mechanism for N6-mA function via SATB1, and reveal connections between DNA modification, DNA secondary structures and large chromatin domains in early embryonic development.
