Supplementary information

NSUN4 also known as NOP2/Sun domain family member 4 is a methyltransferase enzyme that modifies RNA molecules by adding a methyl group to cytosine residues. It has a mass of approximately 55 kDa. NSUN4 is found in the mitochondria where it is expressed in various tissues especially in those with high energy demands such as muscle and nerve tissues. Its function is essential for mitochondrial ribosomal activity contributing to the proper synthesis of proteins within the mitochondrion.
Biological function summary

NSUN4 plays a role in mitochondrial translation by forming a complex with MTERF4. This complex is important for the methylation of mitochondrial rRNA which ensures the correct assembly and functionality of the mitochondrial ribosome. Through this modification NSUN4 influences the expression of the mitochondrial genome supporting efficient protein synthesis necessary for cellular energetics and function.

Pathways

NSUN4 integrates into mitochondrial biogenesis and gene expression pathways. It is significantly involved in the regulation of mitochondrial translation a subprocess of the broader mitochondrial translation pathway. NSUN4's activity closely interacts with proteins such as MTERF4 which assists in maintaining mitochondrial DNA transcription and replication illustrating its critical place in sustaining mitochondrial integrity and energy homeostasis.

NSUN4 has implications in mitochondrial-related disorders particularly those affecting energy-dependent tissues. Dysfunction in NSUN4 can lead to challenges in mitochondrial bioenergetics contributing to conditions like mitochondrial myopathy and neurodegenerative diseases which can result from impaired mitochondrial translation. Additionally its interplay with MTERF4 suggests that disruptions in this protein complex might exacerbate conditions related to mitochondrial gene expression defects.

Target data

Mitochondrial RNA cytosine C(5)-methyltransferase that methylates cytosine to 5-methylcytosine (m5C) in various RNAs, such as rRNAs, mRNAs and some long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) (PubMed : 21531335, PubMed : 23022348, PubMed : 39019044). Involved in mitochondrial ribosome small subunit (SSU) maturation by catalyzing methylation of mitochondrial 12S rRNA; the function is independent of MTERFD2/MTERF4 and assembled mitochondrial ribosome large subunit (LSU) (PubMed : 21531335, PubMed : 23022348). Targeted to LSU by MTERFD2/MTERF4 and probably is involved in a final step in ribosome biogenesis to ensure that SSU and LSU are assembled (PubMed : 21531335, PubMed : 23022348). In vitro can methylate 16S rRNA of the LSU; the methylation is enhanced by MTERFD/MTERF4 (PubMed : 23022348). Also acts as a regulator of innate immunity by marking double-stranded mitochondrial RNAs(mt-dsRNAs) generated in response to stress : catalyzes m5C modification on mitochondrial RNAs, such as a mRNAs and lncRNAs, with a preference for the termini of light-strand lncRNAs, promoting their degradation and cytosolic release (PubMed : 39019044). Modified light-strand lncRNAs are then recognized by C1QBP reader and recruited to the mitochondrial degradosome complex, which promotes their degradation (PubMed : 39019044).
