RESUMO

BACKGROUND: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a prevalent and crucial RNA methylation modification that plays a significant role in various biological and pathological processes. The dysregulation of m6A has been linked to the initiation, progression, and metastasis of several cancer types, including colon cancer. The transcriptome of colon cancer indeed provides insight into dysregulated coding and non-coding RNAs, but it does not reveal the mechanisms, such as m6A modifications, that determine post-transcriptional and pre-translational regulations. This study using MeRIP sequencing aims to explain the distribution of m6A modification across altered gene expression and its association with colon cancer. METHODS AND RESULTS: The levels of m6A in different colon cancer cell lines were quantified and correlated with the expression of m6A modifiers such as writers, readers, and erasers. Our results showed that global m6A levels in colon cancer were associated with METTL14, YTHDF2, and YTHDC1. We performed Epi-transcriptome profiling of m6A in colon cancer cell lines using Methylated RNA Immunoprecipitation (MeRIP) sequencing. The differential methylation analysis revealed 7312 m6A regions among the colon cancer cell lines. Our findings indicated that the m6A RNA methylation modifications were mainly distributed in the last exonic and 3' untranslated regions. We also discovered that non-coding RNAs such as miRNA, lncRNA, and circRNA carry m6A marks. Gene set enrichment and motif analysis suggested a strong association of m6A with post-transcriptional events, particularly splicing control. Overall, our study sheds light on the potential role of m6A in colon cancer and highlights the importance of further investigation in this area. CONCLUSION: This study reports m6A enrichment in the last exonic regions and 3' UTRs of mRNA transcripts in colon cancer. METTL14, YTHDF2, and YTHDC1 were the most significant modifiers in colon cancer cells. The functions of m6A-modified genes were found to be RNA methylation and RNA capping. Overall, the study illustrates the transcriptome-wide distribution of m6A and its eminent role in mRNA splicing and translation control of colon cancer.

RESUMO

The major outbreak of Corona virus disease COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2 had brought about 4.55 million deaths and had shaken the health care system all over the world. From the year 2020 the recovered COVID-19 patients had started to develop microbial infection, most predominantly fungal infection in which Mucormycosis gained immediate attention as it has worsen the mortality rate in humans. In the present study of 53 COVID-19 recovered patients presented with microbial infection, the analysis of frequency distribution of fungal infection preponderantly with Rhizopus oryzae, followed by Aspergillus and Candida species.
