Abstract

Transfer RNA is heavily modified and plays a central role in protein synthesis and cellular functions. Here we demonstrate that ALKBH3 is a 1-methyladenosine (m1A) and 3-methylcytidine (m3C) demethylase of tRNA. ALKBH3 can promote cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion. In vivo study confirms the regulation effects of ALKBH3 on growth of tumor xenograft. The m1A demethylated tRNA is more sensitive to angiogenin (ANG) cleavage, followed by generating tRNA-derived small RNAs (tDRs) around the anticodon regions. tDRs are conserved among species, which strengthen the ribosome assembly and prevent apoptosis triggered by cytochrome c (Cyt c). Our discovery opens a potential and novel paradigm of tRNA demethylase, which regulates biological functions via generation of tDRs.

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.
