DNMT3A-coordinated splicing governs the stem state switch towards differentiation in embryonic and haematopoietic stem cells
Abstract
Upon stimulation by extrinsic stimuli, stem cells initiate a programme that enables differentiation or self-renewal. Disruption of the stem state exit has catastrophic consequences for embryogenesis and can lead to cancer. While some elements of this stem state switch are known, major regulatory mechanisms remain unclear. Here we show that this switch involves a global increase in splicing efficiency coordinated by DNA methyltransferase 3α (DNMT3A), an enzyme typically involved in DNA methylation. Proper activation of murine and human embryonic and haematopoietic stem cells depends on messenger RNA processing, influenced by DNMT3A in response to stimuli. DNMT3A coordinates splicing through recruitment of the core spliceosome protein SF3B1 to RNA polymerase and mRNA. Importantly, the DNA methylation function of DNMT3A is not required and loss of DNMT3A leads to impaired splicing during stem cell turnover. Finally, we identify the spliceosome as a potential therapeutic target in DNMT3A-mutated leukaemias. Together, our results reveal a modality through which DNMT3A and the spliceosome govern exit from the stem state towards differentiation. Ramabadran et al. identify a DNA methylation-independent role for DNMT3A in stem cell activation, mediated through recruitment of SF3B1 and splicing regulation.

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.
