- Mitochondrial RNA modification (MRM) plays a crucial role in regulating the expression of key mitochondrial genes and promoting tumor metastasis. Despite its significance, comprehensive studies on MRM in lower grade gliomas (LGGs) remain unknown. Single-cell RNA-seq data (GSE89567) was used to evaluate the distribution functional status, and correlation of MRM-related genes in different cell types of LGG microenvironment. We developed an MRM scoring system by selecting potential MRM-related genes using LASSO regression analysis and the Random Survival Forest algorithm, based on multiple bulk RNA-seq datasets from TCGA, CGGA, GSE16011, and E-MTAB-3892. Analysis was performed on prognostic and immunological features, signaling pathways, metabolism, somatic mutations and copy number variations (CNVs), treatment responses, and forecasting of potential small-molecule agents. A total of 35 MRM-related genes were selected from the literature. Differential expression analysis of 1120 normal brain tissues and 529 LGGs revealed that 22 and 10 genes were upregulated and downregulated, respectively. Most genes were associated with prognosis of LGG. METLL8, METLL2A, TRMT112, and METTL2B were extensively expressed in all cell types and different cell cycle of each cell type. Almost all cell types had clusters related to mitochondrial RNA processing, ribosome biogenesis, or oxidative phosphorylation. Cell-cell communication and Pearson correlation analyses indicated that MRM may promoting the development of microenvironment beneficial to malignant progression via modulating NCMA signaling pathway and ICP expression. A total of 11 and 9 MRM-related genes were observed by LASSO and the RSF algorithm, respectively, and finally 6 MRM-related genes were used to establish MRM scoring system (TRMT2B, TRMT11, METTL6, METTL8, TRMT6, and TRUB2). The six MRM-related genes were then validated by qPCR in glioma and normal tissues. MRM score can predict the malignant clinical characteristics, abundance of immune infiltration, gene variation, clinical outcome, the enrichment of signaling pathways and metabolism. In vitro experiments demonstrated that silencing METTL8 significantly curbs glioma cell proliferation and enhances apoptosis. Patients with a high MRM score showed a better response to immunotherapies and small-molecule agents such as arachidonyl trifluoromethyl ketone, MS.275, AH.6809, tacrolimus, and TTNPB. These novel insights into the biological impacts of MRM within the glioma microenvironment underscore its potential as a target for developing precise therapies, including immunotherapeutic approaches. - Source: PubMed

Zhou XingwangLing YuanguoCui JunshuanWang XiangLong NiyaTeng WeiLiu JianXiang XinYang HuaChu Liangzhao - Modified nucleotides in non-coding RNAs, such as tRNAs and snRNAs, represent an important layer of gene expression regulation through their ability to fine-tune mRNA maturation and translation. Dysregulation of such modifications and the enzymes installing them have been linked to various human pathologies including neurodevelopmental disorders and cancers. Several methyltransferases (MTases) are regulated allosterically by human TRMT112 (Trm112 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae), but the interactome of this regulator and targets of its interacting MTases remain incompletely characterized. Here, we have investigated the interaction network of human TRMT112 in intact cells and identify three poorly characterized putative MTases (TRMT11, THUMPD3 and THUMPD2) as direct partners. We demonstrate that these three proteins are active N2-methylguanosine (m2G) MTases and that TRMT11 and THUMPD3 methylate positions 10 and 6 of tRNAs, respectively. For THUMPD2, we discovered that it directly associates with the U6 snRNA, a core component of the catalytic spliceosome, and is required for the formation of m2G, the last 'orphan' modification in U6 snRNA. Furthermore, our data reveal the combined importance of TRMT11 and THUMPD3 for optimal protein synthesis and cell proliferation as well as a role for THUMPD2 in fine-tuning pre-mRNA splicing. - Source: PubMed
Wang CanUlryck NathalieHerzel LydiaPythoud NicolasKleiber NicoleGuérineau VincentJactel VincentMoritz ChloéBohnsack Markus TCarapito ChristineTouboul DavidBohnsack Katherine EGraille Marc - Methylation is an essential epigenetic modification mainly catalysed by S-Adenosyl methionine-dependent methyltransferases (MTases). Several MTases require a cofactor for their metabolic stability and enzymatic activity. TRMT112 is a small evolutionary conserved protein that acts as a co-factor and activator for different MTases involved in rRNA, tRNA and protein methylation. Using a SILAC screen, we pulled down seven methyltransferases-N6AMT1, WBSCR22, METTL5, ALKBH8, THUMPD2, THUMPD3 and TRMT11-as interaction partners of TRMT112. We showed that TRMT112 stabilises all seven MTases in cells. TRMT112 and MTases exhibit a strong mutual feedback loop when expressed together in cells. TRMT112 interacts with its partners in a similar way; however, single amino acid mutations on the surface of TRMT112 reveal several differences as well. In summary, mammalian TRMT112 can be considered as a central "hub" protein that regulates the activity of at least seven methyltransferases. - Source: PubMed
