Summary
METTL1 (methyltransferase 1, tRNA methylguanosine, HGNC:7030) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 12q14.1, encoding tRNA (guanine-N(7)-)-methyltransferase (Q9UBP6). Catalytic component of METTL1-WDR4 methyltransferase complex that mediates the formation of N(7)-methylguanine in a subset of RNA species, such as tRNAs, mRNAs and microRNAs (miRNAs). It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 54.4% of cell lines).
This gene is similar in sequence to the S. cerevisiae YDL201w gene. The gene product contains a conserved S-adenosylmethionine-binding motif and is inactivated by phosphorylation. Alternative splice variants encoding different protein isoforms have been described for this gene. A pseudogene has been identified on chromosome X.

Function. Catalytic component of METTL1-WDR4 methyltransferase complex that mediates the formation of N(7)-methylguanine in a subset of RNA species, such as tRNAs, mRNAs and microRNAs (miRNAs). Catalyzes the formation of N(7)-methylguanine at position 46 (m7G46) in a large subset of tRNAs that contain the 5’-RAGGU-3’ motif within the variable loop. M7G46 interacts with C13-G22 in the D-loop to stabilize tRNA tertiary structure and protect tRNAs from decay. Also acts as a methyltransferase for a subset of internal N(7)-methylguanine in mRNAs. Internal N(7)-methylguanine methylation of mRNAs in response to stress promotes their relocalization to stress granules, thereby suppressing their translation. Also methylates a specific subset of miRNAs, such as let-7. N(7)-methylguanine methylation of let-7 miRNA promotes let-7 miRNA processing by disrupting an inhibitory secondary structure within the primary miRNA transcript (pri-miRNA). Acts as a regulator of embryonic stem cell self-renewal and differentiation.
Subunit / interactions. Catalytic component of the METTL1-WDR4 complex, composed of METTL1 and WDR4.
Subcellular location. Nucleus.
Tissue specificity. Ubiquitous.
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylation at Ser-27 by PKB/AKT1 inactivates its methyltransferase activity via a steric interference mechanism in the active site that locally disrupts the catalytic center. Phosphorylation at Ser-27 does not affect the interaction with WDR4.
Domain organisation. Upon tRNA-binding, the alphaC region transforms into a helix, which together with the alpha6 helix secures both ends of the tRNA variable loop. The N-terminal disordered region is part of the catalytic pocket and essential for methyltransferase activity: upon S-adenosyl-L-methionine- and tRNA-binding, the N-terminal disordered region becomes ordered, sandwiched between the bound cofactor and the tRNA, and the WDR4 C-terminus attaches to the METTL1 N-terminus to stabilize the bound tRNA together. Together with WDR4, which also binds tRNAs, tRNAs undergo bending to facilitate G46 flipping into the catalytic pocket to be modified.
Induction. Amplified and overexpressed in a number of cancers and is associated with poor prognosis (at protein level).
Pathway. tRNA modification; N(7)-methylguanine-tRNA biosynthesis.
Miscellaneous. In the context of cancer, overexpression of the METTL1-WDR4 methyltransferase complex promotes cancer progression by driving oncogenic transformation. Drives oncogenesis by mediating the formation of N(7)-methylguanine at position 46 (m7G46) in some tRNAs, in particular Arg-TCT-4-1 (TRR-TCT4-1), leading to increased translation of mRNAs, including cell cycle regulators that are enriched in the corresponding AGA codon.
Similarity. Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. TrmB family.
