Arsenic is a centuries-old, naturally occurring toxicant, and its cellular effect is still poorly understood. The significance of this work is three-fold. First, among a battery of oxidizing and alkylating agents, arsenite exposure caused a unique reprogramming of wobble queuosine in the transfer RNA (tRNA) epitranscriptome, which depended upon the micronutrient precursor queuine and was linked to codon-biased shifts in the translation of metabolic proteins known to be linked to arsenite toxicity. Second, we showed that the tRNA epitranscriptome is dynamically and differentially regulated by exposure to a variety of toxicants. Finally, the results have implications for the role of queuine as a micronutrient that determines the human cell response to toxic stresses. Cells respond to environmental stress by regulating gene expression at the level of both transcription and translation. The ∼50 modified ribonucleotides of the human epitranscriptome contribute to the latter, with mounting evidence that dynamic regulation of transfer RNA (tRNA) wobble modifications leads to selective translation of stress response proteins from codon-biased genes. Here we show that the response of human hepatocellular carcinoma cells to arsenite exposure is regulated by the availability of queuine, a micronutrient and essential precursor to the wobble modification queuosine (Q) on tRNAs reading GUN codons. Among oxidizing and alkylating agents at equitoxic concentrations, arsenite exposure caused an oxidant-specific increase in Q that correlated with up-regulation of proteins from codon-biased genes involved in energy metabolism. Limiting queuine increased arsenite-induced cell death, altered translation, increased reactive oxygen species levels, and caused mitochondrial dysfunction. In addition to demonstrating an epitranscriptomic facet of arsenite toxicity and response, our results highlight the links between environmental exposures, stress tolerance, RNA modifications, and micronutrients.
