m6A mRNA demethylase FTO regulates melanoma tumorigenicity and response to anti-PD-1 blockade [PDF]

, 2019
Melanoma is one of the most deadly and therapy-resistant cancers. Here we show that N6-methyladenosine (m6A) mRNA demethylation by fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) increases melanoma growth and decreases response to anti-PD-1 blockade ...

m^6A RNA methylation promotes XIST-mediated transcriptional repression [PDF]

, 2016
The long non-coding RNA X-inactive specific transcript (XIST) mediates the transcriptional silencing of genes on the X chromosome. Here we show that, in human cells, XIST is highly methylated with at least 78 N^6-methyladenosine (m^6A) residues—a ...

Mettl3‐Mediated m6A Modification Represents a Novel Therapeutic Target for FSGS

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores the roles of Mettl3‐induced N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) modifications in Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). The findings reveal that inhibition of Mettl3 results in podocyte injury by modulating the TJP1CDC42 pathway. Moreover, Administration of N6‐methyladenosine attenuates the FSGS phenotype in WT mice induced by Adriamycin ...

The AlkB Family of Fe(II)/α-Ketoglutarate-dependent Dioxygenases: Repairing Nucleic Acid Alkylation Damage and Beyond [PDF]

, 2015
The AlkB family of Fe(II)- and α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases is a class of ubiquitous direct reversal DNA repair enzymes that remove alkyl adducts from nucleobases by oxidative dealkylation.

HPD is an m6A Methyltransferase that Protects Colorectal Cancer Cells from Ferroptotic Cell Death by m6A Methylating SLC7A11/GPX4

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the tyrosine metabolic enzyme HPD functions as a previously uncharacterized, METTL3‐independent m6A methyltransferase. It promotes colorectal tumor progression by coordinately regulating the SLC7A11/GPX4 axis to suppress ferroptosis.

Structural insights into molecular mechanism for N 6-adenosine methylation by MT-A70 family methyltransferase METTL4

Nature Communications, 2022
Here the authors combine functional and structural work to show that METTL4 functions as U2 snRNA m6Am RNA methyltransferase supporting N6-methylation of 2’-O-methyladenosine in Arabidopsis.

The Tumor‐to‐Endothelial Transfer of FTO Promotes Vascular Remodeling and Metastasis in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Integrated omics analysis of matched primary and liver metastatic NPC tumors reveals a unique NOTCH1+ CSC subpopulation exhibiting enhanced stemness properties and tumorigenic capacity. With in vitro and in vivo assays, exosomal transfer of tumor‐derived FTO from NOTCH1+ cells to the endothelium promotes vascular permeability and metastatic potential ...

Comprehensive Profiling of N6‐methyladnosine (m6A) Readouts Reveals Novel m6A Readers That Regulate Human Embryonic Stem Cell Differentiation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This research deciphers the m6A transcriptome by profiling its sites and functional readout effects: from mRNA stability, translation to alternative splicing, across five different cell types. Machine learning model identifies novel m6A‐binding proteins DDX6 and FXR2 and novel m6A reader proteins FUBP3 and L1TD1.
