Haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) possess unique physiological adaptations to sustain blood cell production and cope with stress responses throughout life. To maintain these adaptations, HSCs rely on maintaining a tightly controlled protein translation rate. However, the mechanism of how HSCs regulate protein translation remains to be fully elucidated. In this study, we investigate the role of transfer RNA (tRNA) m1A58 'writer' proteins TRMT6 and TRMT61A in regulating HSCs function. Trmt6 deletion promoted HSC proliferation through aberrant activation of mTORC1 signaling. TRMT6-deficient HSCs exhibited an impaired self-renewal ability in competitive transplantation assay. Mechanistically, single cell RNA-seq analysis reveals that the mTORC1 signaling pathway is highly upregulated in HSC-enriched cell populations after Trmt6 deletion. m1A-tRNA-seq and Western blot analysis suggest that TRMT6 promotes methylation modification of specific tRNA and expression of TSC1, fine-tuning mTORC1 signaling levels. Furthermore, Pharmacological inhibition of the mTORC1 pathway rescued functional defect in TRMT6-deficient HSCs. To our knowledge, this study is the first to elucidate a mechanism by which TRMT6-TRMT61A complex-mediated tRNA-m1A58 modification regulates HSC homeostasis. Haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) rely on tightly controlled protein translation to sustain blood production and respond to stress. Here, the authors uncover that TRMT6-TRMT61A proteins regulate HSC function by modifying tRNA, which fine-tunes mTORC1 signaling and thus translation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
