Abstract

The RNA modification N6 -methyladenosine (m 6 A) post-transcriptionally regulates RNA function. The cellular machinery that controls m 6 A includes methyltransferases and demethylases that add or remove this modification, as well as m 6 A-binding YTHDF proteins that promote the translation or degradation of m 6 A-modified mRNA. We demonstrate that m 6 A modulates infection by hepatitis C virus (HCV). Depletion of m 6 A methyltransferases or an m 6 A demethylase, respectively, increases or decreases infectious HCV particle production. During HCV infection, YTHDF proteins relocalize to lipid droplets, sites of viral assembly, and their depletion increases infectious viral particles. We further mapped m 6 A sites across the HCV genome and determined that inactivating m 6 A in one viral genomic region increases viral titer without affecting RNA replication. Additional mapping of m 6 A on the RNA genomes of other Flaviviridae , including dengue, Zika, yellow fever, and West Nile virus, identifies conserved regions modified by m 6 A. Altogether, this work identifies m 6 A as a conserved regulatory mark across Flaviviridae genomes.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
