    Epitranscriptomics M<sup>6</Sup>a Analyses Reveal Distinct M<sup>6</Sup>a Marks Under Tumor Necrosis Factor Α (tnf-Α) Apoptotic Conditions in Hela Cells

    Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is a ligand that induces both intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways in HeLa cells by modulating complex gene regulatory mechanisms. However, the full spectrum of TNF-alpha-modulated epitranscriptomic m(6)A marks is unknown. We employed a genomewide approach to examine the extent of m(6)A RNA modifications under TNF-alpha-modulated apoptotic conditions in HeLa cells. miCLIP-seq analyses revealed a plethora of m(6)A marks on 632 target mRNAs with an enrichment on 99 mRNAs associated with apoptosis. Interestingly, the m(6)A RNA modification patterns were quite different under cisplatin- and TNF-alpha-mediated apoptotic conditions. We then examined the abundance and translational efficiencies of several mRNAs under METTL3 knockdown and/or TNF-alpha treatment conditions. Our analyses showed changes in the translational efficiency of TP53INP1 mRNA based on the polysome profile analyses. Additionally, TP53INP1 protein amount was modulated by METTL3 knockdown upon TNF-alpha treatment but not CP treatment, suggesting the existence of a pathway-specific METTL3-TP53INP1 axis. Congruently, METLL3 knockdown sensitized HeLa cells to TNF-alpha-mediated apoptosis, which was also validated in a zebrafish larval xenograft model. These results suggest that apoptotic pathway-specific m(6)A methylation marks exist in cells and TNF-alpha-METTL3-TP53INP1 axis modulates TNF-alpha-mediated apoptosis in HeLa cells.

    Epitranscriptomics Changes the Play: M6a Rna Modifications in Apoptosis
    (Springer, 2022) Akçaöz, Azime; Akgül, Bünyamin
    Apoptosis is a form of programmed cell death that is essential for cellular and organismal homeostasis. Any irregularities that disturb the balance between apoptosis and cell survival have severe implications, such as improper development or life-threatening diseases. Thus, it is highly critical to maintain a proper rate of apoptosis throughout development. In fact, several complex transcriptional and posttranscriptional mechanisms exist in eukaryotes to critically regulate the rate of apoptotic processes. Recent studies suggest that not only RNA sequences but also their modifications, such as m6A methylation, play a fundamental role in these transcriptional and posttranscriptional processes. A specific set of proteins, called writer, eraser, and reader of m6A marks, modulate the rate of apoptosis by determining the m6A repertoire and the fate of certain transcripts associated with apoptosis. In this Review, we will cover the dynamic m6A RNA modifications and their impact on modulation of apoptosis.
