摘要

Abstract RNA methylation of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is emerging as a fundamental regulator of every aspect of RNA biology. RNA methylation directly impacts protein production to achieve quick modulation of dynamic biological processes. However, whether RNA methylation regulates mitochondrial function is not known, especially in neuronal cells which require a high energy supply and quick reactive responses. Here we show that m6A RNA methylation regulates mitochondrial function through promoting nuclear-encoded mitochondrial complex subunit RNA translation. Conditional genetic knockout of m6A RNA methyltransferase Mettl14 (Methyltransferase like 14) by Nestin-Cre together with metabolomic analysis reveals that Mettl14 knockout-induced m6A depletion significantly downregulates metabolites related to energy metabolism. Furthermore, transcriptome-wide RNA methylation profiling of wild type and Mettl14 knockout mouse brains by m6A-Seq shows enrichment of methylation on mitochondria-related RNA. Importantly, loss of m6A leads to a significant reduction in mitochondrial respiratory capacity and membrane potential. These functional defects are paralleled by the reduced expression of mitochondrial electron transport chain complexes, as well as decreased mitochondrial super-complex assembly and activity. Mechanistically, m6A depletion decreases the translational efficiency of methylated RNA encoding mitochondrial complex subunits through reducing their association with polysomes, while not affecting RNA stability. Together, these findings reveal a novel role for RNA methylation in regulating mitochondrial function. Given that mitochondrial dysfunction and RNA methylation have been increasingly implicate in neurodegenerative disorders, our findings not only provide insights into fundamental mechanisms regulating mitochondrial function, but also open up new avenues for understanding the pathogenesis of neurological diseases.
