| Summary |
N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the most abundant mRNA modification, is deposited in mammals/drosophila/plants by m6A methyltransferase complexes (MTC) comprising a catalytic subunit and at least five additional proteins. The yeast MTC is critical for meiosis but was known to comprise three proteins, of which two were conserved in mammals. We uncover three novel MTC components (Kar4/Ygl036w-Vir1/Dyn2). All MTC subunits, except for Dyn2, are essential for m6A deposition and have corresponding mammalian orthologs. Nonetheless, the yeast MTC is arranged differently from its mammalian counterpart. The yeast MTC features a mostly mutually stabilizing core comprising Ime4/Mum2/Vir1 and the mRNA binding component Kar4, and an auxiliary hub comprising Slz1/Dyn2. The MTC core subunits when in a complex have both m6A-dependent and m6A-independent functions in meiosis. Kar4 also has a mechanistically separate function from the MTC during mating. Our findings expand the relevance of yeast as a model for unravelling m6A-dependent and independent functions of MTCs.
