Abstract

Summary FTO, the first RNA demethylase discovered, mediates the demethylation of internal N6-methyladenosine (m6A) and N6, 2-O-dimethyladenosine (m6Am) at the +1 position from the 5’ cap in mRNA. Here, we demonstrate that the cellular distribution of FTO is distinct among different cell lines, affecting the access of FTO to different RNA substrates. We find that FTO binds multiple RNA species, including mRNA, snRNA, and tRNA, and can demethylate internal m6A and cap m6A in mRNA, internal m6m A in U6 RNA, internal and cap m6Am in snRNAs, and N1-methyladenosine (m1A) in tRNA. FTO-mediated demethylation shows a greater impact on the transcript levels of mRNAs possessing internal m6A than the ones with cap m6Am in the tested cells. We also show that FTO can directly repress translation by catalyzing m1A tRNA demethylation. Collectively, FTO-mediated RNA demethylation occurs to m6A and m6Am in mRNA and snRNA as well as m1A in tRNA.

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.
