Abstract
RNA labelling has become indispensable in studying RNA biology. Nucleoside analogues with a chemical sequencing power represent desirable RNA labelling molecules because precise labelling information at base resolution can be obtained. Here, we report a new nucleoside analogue, N4-allylcytidine (a4C), which is able to tag RNA through both in vitro and in vivo pathways and further specifically reacts with iodine to form 3, N4-cyclized cytidine (cyc-C) in a catalyst-free, fast and complete manner. Full spectroscopic characterization concluded that cyc-C consisted of paired diastereoisomers with opposite chiral carbon centers in the fused 3, N4-five-membered ring. During RNA reverse transcription into complementary DNA, cyc-C induces base misincorporation due to the disruption of canonical hydrogen bonding by the cyclized structure and thus can be accurately identified by sequencing at single base resolution. With the chemical sequencing rationale of a4C, successful applications have been performed including pinpointing N4-methylcytidine methyltransferases' substrate modification sites, metabolically labelling mammalian cellular RNAs, and mapping active cellular RNA polymerase locations with the chromatin run-on RNA sequencing technique. Collectively, our work demonstrates that a4C is a promising molecule for RNA labelling and chemical sequencing and expands the toolkit for studying sophisticated RNA biology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proliferation, metabolism, tumor occurrence and development in gliomas are greatly influenced by RNA modifications. However, no research has integrated the four RNA methylation regulators of m6A, m1A, m5C and m7G in gliomas to analyze their relationship with glioma prognosis and intratumoral heterogeneity. METHODS Based on three in-house single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data, the glioma heterogeneity and characteristics of m6A/m1A/m5C/m7G-related regulators were elucidated. Based on publicly available bulk RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) data, a risk-score system for predicting the overall survival (OS) for gliomas was established by three machine learning methods and multivariate Cox regression analysis, and validated in an independent cohort. RESULTS Seven cell types were identified in gliomas by three scRNA-seq data, and 22 m6A/m1A/m5C/m7G-related regulators among the marker genes of different cell subtypes were discovered. Three m6A/m1A/m5C/m7G-related regulators were selected to construct prognostic risk-score model, including EIFA, NSUN6 and TET1. The high-risk patients showed higher immune checkpoint expression, higher tumor microenvironment scores, as well as higher tumor mutation burden and poorer prognosis compared with low-risk patients. Additionally, the area under the curve values of the risk score and nomogram were 0.833 and 0.922 for 3 year survival and 0.759 and 0.885 for 5 year survival for gliomas. EIF3A was significantly highly expressed in glioma tissues in our in-house RNA-sequencing data (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION These findings may contribute to further understanding of the role of m6A/m1A/m5C/m7G-related regulators in gliomas, and provide novel and reliable biomarkers for gliomas prognosis and treatment.

Abstract
N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) chemical modification determines the fate of the mammalian cellular mRNA to modulate crucial physiological and pathological processes. Dysregulations of m6A methylase and demethylase have been linked to cancer diseases. Therefore, evaluations of enzyme mutants' activities and related inhibitors for discovery of targeted therapeutic strategies are very necessary. Here, we report an RNA methylation-sensitive fluorescent aptamer reporting assay to measure the catalytic activities of m6A enzymes under various conditions. The rationale is that when an RNA aptamer, named A-Pepper, is methylated at a specific adenosine position to generate m6A-Pepper, the latter displays stronger fluorescence than the former upon binding the ligand, which is an aggregation-induced emission-active luminogen. The fluorescence signal enhancement is linearly proportional to the RNA methylation extent, which is equivalent to the methylase activity. On the contrary, the m6A demethylase activity is measured through calculating the fluorescence signal decrease caused by the switching from m6A-Pepper to A-Pepper. The assay has been successfully applied to quantitatively evaluate the mutation and inhibitor effects on the activities of m6A methylases METTL3/METTL14 and demethylase FTO, and the obtained results are well-consistent with those quantified by the expensive and time-consuming golden standard LC-MS/MS. Our work provides a simple tool capable of detecting m6A enzymes' activities and screening their inhibitors in a rapid, quantitative, cost-effective, and high-throughput manner.

Abstract
ConspectusMore than 170 different types of chemical modifications have been identified on diverse types of RNA, collectively known as the epitranscriptome. Among them, N6-methyladenine (m6A), 5-methylcytosine (m5C), N1-methyladenine (m1A), and N7-methylguanosine (m7G) as the ubiquitous post-transcriptional modification are widely involved in regulating the metabolic processes such as RNA degradation, translation, stability, and export, mediating important physiological and pathological processes such as stress regulation, immune response, development, and tumorigenesis. Recently, the regulatory role of RNA modification during developmental processes is getting more attention. Therefore, the development of low-input even single-cell and high-resolution sequencing technologies is crucial for the exploration of the regulatory roles of RNA modifications in these important biological events of trace samples.This account focuses on the roles of RNA modifications in various developmental processes. We describe the distribution characteristics of various RNA modifications, catalytic enzymes, binding proteins, and the development of sequencing technologies. RNA modification is dynamically reversible, which can be catalyzed by methyltransferases and eliminated by demethylases. RNA m6A is the most abundant post-transcriptional modification on eukaryote mRNA, which is mainly concentrated near the stop codon, and involves in RNA metabolism regulation. RNA m5C, another most studied RNA modification, has been identified in a various of organisms and RNA species, mainly enriched in the regions downstream of translation initiation sites and broadly distributes across the whole coding sequence (CDS) in mammalian mRNAs. RNA m1A, with a lower abundance than m6A, is widely distributed in various RNA types, mainly locates in the 5' untranslated region (5'UTR) of mRNA and regulates translation. RNA m7G, one of the most common RNA modifications in eukaryotes, has been identified at cap regions and internal positions of RNAs and recently gained considerable attention.Thanks to the development of sequencing technology, m6A has been found to regulate the tumorigenic process, including tumor proliferation, invasion, and metastasis by modulating oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, and affect oocyte maturation and embryonic development through regulating maternal and zygotic genes. m5C related proteins have been identified to participate in embryonic development, plant growth, and neural stem cell differentiation in a m5C dependent manner. m1A also has been revealed to be involved in these developmental processes. m7G dysregulation mainly involves in neurodevelopmental disorders and neurodegenerative diseases.Collectively, we summarized the gradually exhibited roles of RNA methylation during development, and discussed the possibility of RNA modifications as candidate biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets. The technological development is anticipated as the major driving force to expand our knowledge in this field.

Abstract
The global dynamics in a variety of biological processes can be revealed by mapping transcriptional m6A sites, in particular full-transcriptome m6A. And individual m6A sites have contributed to biological function, which can be evaluated by stoichiometric information obtained from the single nucleotide resolution. Currently, the identification of m6A sites is mainly carried out by experiment and prediction methods, based on high-throughput sequencing and machine learning model respectively. This review summarizes the recent topics and progress made in bioinformatics methods of deciphering the m6A methylation, including the experimental detection of m6A methylation sites, techniques of data analysis, the way of predicting m6A methylation sites, m6A methylation databases, and detection of m6A modification in circRNA. At the end, the essay makes a brief discussion for the development perspective in this area.

Abstract
Esophageal carcinoma (EC) is always diagnosed at advanced stage and its the mortality rate remains high. The patients usually miss the best opportunity for treatment because of non-specific symptoms and the survival rates are low. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) the predominant modification in eukaryotic messenger RNA(mRNA), serves vital roles in numerous bioprocess. This chemical modification is dynamic, reversible and consists of three regulators: m6A methyltransferases (writers), demethylases (erasers) and m6A-binding proteins (readers). Recently, a growing number of evidences have indicated relationships between m6A and EC. Whereas, lacking of cognition about the molecular mechanism of m6A modification in esophageal carcinoma. We will focus on the biological function roles of m6A modification in the tumorigenesis and development of EC. Recent studies showed that immunotherapy had a positive impact on EC. The relationship between m6A and immunotherapy in EC deserves further research and discussion. We will also discuss the potential clinical applications regarding diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of m6A modification for EC and provide perspectives for further studies.

Abstract
The natural chemical modifications of messenger RNA (mRNA) in living organisms have shown essential roles in both physiology and pathology. The mapping of mRNA modifications is critical for interpreting their biological functions. In another dimension, the synthesized nucleoside analogs can enable chemical labeling of cellular mRNA through a metabolic pathway, which facilitates the study of RNA dynamics in a pulse-chase manner. In this regard, the sequencing tools for mapping both natural modifications and nucleoside tags on mRNA at single base resolution are highly necessary. In this work, we review the progress of chemical sequencing technology for determining both a variety of naturally occurring base modifications mainly on mRNA and a few on transfer RNA and metabolically incorporated artificial base analogs on mRNA, and further discuss the problems and prospects in the field.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly mortal type of primary liver cancer. Abnormal epigenetic modifications are present in HCC, and RNA modification is dynamic and reversible and is a key post-transcriptional regulator. With the in-depth study of post-transcriptional modifications, RNA modifications are aberrantly expressed in human cancers. Moreover, the regulators of RNA modifications can be used as potential targets for cancer therapy. In RNA modifications, N6-methyladenosine (m6A), N7-methylguanosine (m7G), and 5-methylcytosine (m5C) and their regulators have important regulatory roles in HCC progression and represent potential novel biomarkers for the confirmation of diagnosis and treatment of HCC. This review focuses on RNA modifications in HCC and the roles and mechanisms of m6A, m7G, m5C, N1-methyladenosine (m1A), N3-methylcytosine (m3C), and pseudouridine (ψ) on its development and maintenance. The potential therapeutic strategies of RNA modifications are elaborated for HCC.

Crosstalk of Eight Types of RNA Modification Regulators Defines Tumor Microenvironments, Cancer Hallmarks, and Prognosis of Lung Adenocarcinoma. JOURNAL OF ONCOLOGY 2022; 2022:1285632.

Abstract
RNA modification has become an exciting underexplored field in recent years. In lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), m6A was the best characterized and most studied RNA modification, while knowledge about other kinds of RNA modifications in LUAD is limited. In our study, we included a total of 100 RNA modification regulators of eight types of cancer-related RNA modifications (m6A, m1A, m5C, Nm, m7G, Ψ, A-to-I, and mcm5s2U) to systematically profile their specific roles in LUAD. By gene mutation and expression analysis, we identified extensive dysregulations and complicated interactions of 100 RNA modification regulators in LUAD. Based on unsupervised clustering analysis, gene set variation analysis (GSVA), and single-sample gene-set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA), two RNA modification patterns in LUAD were defined to show distinct biological characteristics. The favorable prognostic pattern was enriched with infiltrated immune cells, including activated B cells, CD8 T cells, eosinophil cells, dendritic cells, and natural killer cells, while the unfavorable prognostic pattern was enriched with cancer hallmarks, including hypoxia, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), angiogenesis, PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway, MYC pathway, and glycolysis pathway. We also constructed an RNA modification score (RMScore) based on five critical genes (CYP17A1, NTSR1, PITX3, KRT6A, and ANLN) to evaluate the RNA modification status of individual LUAD patients. RMScore was revealed to be related to the infiltrated immune cells and cancer hallmarks and was an independent prognostic factor in the TCGA-LUAD cohort and two external GEO-LUAD cohorts. Our study was the first to comprehensively investigate the dysregulations, crosstalk, and potential prognostic value of eight types of RNA modifications in LUAD. Our results highlighted the significance of eight types of RNA modifications in tumor microenvironments and cancer hallmarks and provided novel prognostic biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets in the management of LUAD patients in the future.

Abstract
Nucleobase deamination, such as A-to-I editing, represents an important posttranscriptional modification of RNA. When deamination affects guanosines, a xanthosine (X) containing RNA is generated. However, the biological significance and chemical consequences on RNA are poorly understood. We present a comprehensive study on the preparation and biophysical properties of X-modified RNA. Thermodynamic analyses revealed that base pairing strength is reduced to a level similar to that observed for a G•U replacement. Applying NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography, we demonstrate that X can form distinct wobble geometries with uridine depending on the sequence context. In contrast, X pairing with cytidine occurs either through wobble geometry involving protonated C or in Watson–Crick-like arrangement. This indicates that the different pairing modes are of comparable stability separated by low energetic barriers for switching. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the flexible pairing properties directly affect the recognition of X-modified RNA by reverse transcription enzymes. Primer extension assays and PCR-based sequencing analysis reveal that X is preferentially read as G or A and that the ratio depends on the type of reverse transcriptase.

[PMID: 35692827 PMCID: PMC9178125 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2022.903117] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2022] [Accepted: 05/03/2022] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Gliomas are the most common and fatal malignant type of tumor of the central nervous system. RNA post-transcriptional modifications, as a frontier and hotspot in the field of epigenetics, have attracted increased attention in recent years. Among such modifications, methylation is most abundant, and encompasses N6-methyladenosine (m6A), 5-methylcytosine (m5C), N1 methyladenosine (m1A), and 7-methylguanosine (m7G) methylation.Methods: RNA-sequencing data from healthy tissue and low-grade glioma samples were downloaded from of The Cancer Genome Atlas database along with clinical information and mutation data from glioblastoma tumor samples. Forty-nine m6A/m5C/m1A/m7G-related genes were identified and an m6A/m5C/m1A/m7G-lncRNA signature of co-expressed long non-coding RNAs selected. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator Cox regression analysis was used to identify 12 m6A/m5C/m1A/m7G-related lncRNAs associated with the prognostic characteristics of glioma and their correlation with immune function and drug sensitivity analyzed. Furthermore, the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas dataset was used for model validation.Results: A total of 12 m6A/m5C/m1A/m7G-related genes (AL080276.2, AC092111.1, SOX21-AS1, DNAJC9-AS1, AC025171.1, AL356019.2, AC017104.1, AC099850.3, UNC5B-AS1, AC006064.2, AC010319.4, and AC016822.1) were used to construct a survival and prognosis model, which had good independent prediction ability for patients with glioma. Patients were divided into low and high m6A/m5C/m1A/m7G-LS groups, the latter of which had poor prognosis. In addition, the m6A/m5C/m1A/m7G-LS enabled improved interpretation of the results of enrichment analysis, as well as informing immunotherapy response and drug sensitivity of patients with glioma in different subgroups.Conclusion: In this study we constructed an m6A/m5C/m1A/m7G-LS and established a nomogram model, which can accurately predict the prognosis of patients with glioma and provides direction toward promising immunotherapy strategies for the future.

N1-Methyladenosine (m1A) Regulation Associated With the Pathogenesis of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Through YTHDF3 Modulating Macrophage Polarization. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:883155.

Abstract
Objectives This study aimed to identify key AAA-related m1A RNA methylation regulators and their association with immune infiltration in AAA. Furthermore, we aimed to explore the mechanism that m1A regulators modulate the functions of certain immune cells as well as the downstream target genes, participating in the progression of AAA. Methods Based on the gene expression profiles of the GSE47472 and GSE98278 datasets, differential expression analysis focusing on m1A regulators was performed on the combined dataset to identify differentially expressed m1A regulatory genes (DEMRGs). Additionally, CIBERSORT tool was utilized in the analysis of the immune infiltration landscape and its correlation with DEMRGs. Moreover, we validated the expression levels of DEMRGs in human AAA tissues by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Immunofluorescence (IF) staining was also applied in the validation of cellular localization of YTHDF3 in AAA tissues. Furthermore, we established LPS/IFN-γ induced M1 macrophages and ythdf3 knockdown macrophages in vitro, to explore the relationship between YTHDF3 and macrophage polarization. At last, RNA immunoprecipitation-sequencing (RIP-Seq) combined with PPI network analysis was used to predict the target genes of YTHDF3 in AAA progression. Results Eight DEMRGs were identified in our study, including YTHDC1, YTHDF1-3, RRP8, TRMT61A as up-regulated genes and FTO, ALKBH1 as down-regulated genes. The immune infiltration analysis showed these DEMRGs were positively correlated with activated mast cells, plasma cells and M1 macrophages in AAA. RT-qPCR analysis also verified the up-regulated expression levels of YTHDC1, YTHDF1, and YTHDF3 in human AAA tissues. Besides, IF staining result in AAA adventitia indicated the localization of YTHDF3 in macrophages. Moreover, our in-vitro experiments found that the knockdown of ythdf3 in M0 macrophages inhibits macrophage M1 polarization but promotes macrophage M2 polarization. Eventually, 30 key AAA-related target genes of YTHDF3 were predicted, including CD44, mTOR, ITGB1, STAT3, etc. Conclusion Our study reveals that m1A regulation is significantly associated with the pathogenesis of human AAA. The m1A “reader,” YTHDF3, may participate in the modulating of macrophage polarization that promotes aortic inflammation, and influence AAA progression by regulating the expression of its target genes.

Abstract
DNA tagging with base analogs has found numerous applications. To precisely record the DNA labelling information, it will be highly beneficial to develop chemical sequencing tags that can be encoded into DNA as regular bases and decoded as mutant bases upon a mild, efficient and bioorthognal chemical treatment. Here we reported such a DNA tag, N4-allyldeoxycytidine (a4dC), to label and identify DNA by in vitro assays. The iodination of a4dC led to fast and complete formation of 3, N4-cyclized deoxycytidine, which induced base misincorporation during DNA replication and thus could be located at single base resolution. We explored the applications of a4dC in pinpointing DNA labelling sites at single base resolution, mapping epigenetic mark N4-methyldeoxycytidine, and imaging nucleic acids in situ. In addition, mammalian cellular DNA could be metabolically labelled with a4dC. Together,our study sheds light on the design of next generation DNA tags with chemical sequencing power.

Abstract
Development of tools for precise manipulation of cellular mRNA m6A methylation at the base level is highly required. Here, we report an RNA-guided RNA modification strategy using a fusion protein containing deactivated nuclease Cas13b and m6A methyltransferase METTL14, namely, dCas13b-M14, which is designedly positioned in the cytoplasm. dCas13b-M14 naturally heterodimerizes with endogenous METTL3 to form a catalytic complex to methylate specific cytoplasmic mRNA under a guide RNA (gRNA). We developed assays to screen and validate the guiding specificity of varied gRNAs at single-base resolution. With an optimum combination of dCas13b-M14 and gRNAs inside cells, we have successfully tuned methylation levels of several selected mRNA m6A sites. The off-target effect was evaluated by whole transcriptome m6A sequencing, and a very minor perturbation on the methylome was revealed. Finally, we successfully utilized the editing tool to achieve de novo methylations on five selected mRNA sites. Together, this study paves the way for studying position-dependent roles of m6A methylation in a particular transcript.

Abstract
Epigenetic modification plays a crucial regulatory role in the biological processes of eukaryotic cells. The recent characterization of DNA and RNA methylation is still ongoing. Tumor metastasis has long been an unconquerable feature in the fight against cancer. As an inevitable component of the epigenetic regulatory network, 5-methylcytosine is associated with multifarious cellular processes and systemic diseases, including cell migration and cancer metastasis. Recently, gratifying progress has been achieved in determining the molecular interactions between m5C writers (DNMTs and NSUNs), demethylases (TETs), readers (YTHDF2, ALYREF and YBX1) and RNAs. However, the underlying mechanism of RNA m5C methylation in cell mobility and metastasis remains unclear. The functions of m5C writers and readers are believed to regulate gene expression at the post-transcription level and are involved in cellular metabolism and movement. In this review, we emphatically summarize the recent updates on m5C components and related regulatory networks. The content will be focused on writers and readers of the RNA m5C modification and potential mechanisms in diseases. We will discuss relevant upstream and downstream interacting molecules and their associations with cell migration and metastasis.
