Abstract
Quiescent cells require a continuous supply of proteins to maintain protein homeostasis. In fission yeast, entry into quiescence is triggered by nitrogen stress, leading to the inactivation of TORC1 and the activation of TORC2. Here, we report that the Greatwall-Endosulfine-PPA/B55 pathway connects the downregulation of TORC1 with the upregulation of TORC2, resulting in the activation of Elongator-dependent tRNA modifications essential for sustaining the translation programme during entry into quiescence. This process promotes U34 and A37 tRNA modifications at the anticodon stem loop, enhancing translation efficiency and fidelity of mRNAs enriched for AAA versus AAG lysine codons. Notably, some of these mRNAs encode inhibitors of TORC1, activators of TORC2, tRNA modifiers, and proteins necessary for telomeric and subtelomeric functions. Therefore, we propose a novel mechanism by which cells respond to nitrogen stress at the level of translation, involving a coordinated interplay between the tRNA epitranscriptome and biased codon usage.

Low-dose benzo[a]pyrene exposure induces hepatic lipid deposition through LCMT1/PP2Ac-mediated autophagy inhibition. Food Chem Toxicol 2023; 179:113986.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a progressive disorder of liver metabolism and has become the most common chronic liver disease worldwide. Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) is recognized as a potent carcinogen, but the effect of low-dose BaP on the development of NAFLD has not been well-studied, and its molecular mechanism is still unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that low-dose BaP induced hepatic steatosis in a mouse model with a notable increase in hepatic lipid content. Interestingly, mRNA expression of genes related to fatty acids uptake or synthesis was not significantly altered after BaP exposure. Instead, we found that low-dose BaP promoted lipid deposition in primary mouse hepatocytes by inhibiting autophagy, which was regulated through Leucine carboxyl methyltransferase-1 (LCMT1) mediated Protein Phosphatases 2A subunit C (PP2Ac) methylation. The role of LCMT1 in BaP-induced steatosis was further validated in a liver-specific lcmt1 knockout (L-LCMT1 KO) mouse model. In this study, we provided evidence to support a novel mechanism by which BaP induces the development of hepatic steatosis through PP2Ac mediated autophagy inhibition. These findings provided new insight into the pathogenesis of NAFLD induced by environmental exposure to low-dose BaP.
