Development of peptidomimetic inhibitors of the ERG transcription factor in prostate cancer (ChIP-seq)

ABSTRACT: Transcription factors play a key role in the development of a number of cancers, and therapeutically targeting them has remained a challenge. In prostate cancer, the ETS transcription factor ERG is recurrently rearranged and likely plays a critical role in prostate oncogenesis. Here we identified a series of peptides from a phage-display library that interact specifically with the DNA binding domain of ERG. The interactive interface was mapped to 9-residues in the 3rd helix of the ETS domain that is critical for ERG transcriptional activity. The peptides were found to efficiently disrupt ERG-mediated protein-protein interactions, transcription, DNA damage, and cell invasion, as well as attenuate ERG recruitment to target gene loci. Furthermore, a retroinverso peptidomimetic version of the peptide sequence suppressed tumor growth, intravasation, and metastasis in vivo. Taken together, our results demonstrate that transcription factors have specific residues important for protein-protein interactions and disrupting those critical interactions may be an effective therapeutic strategy.

The ETS family member GABPa mediates the development of castrate-resistant prostate cancer (ChIP-Seq)

Project description:In prostate cancer, the androgen receptor (AR) is a key transcription factor at all disease stages. We recently showed that during progression to castrate-resistant prostate cancer the AR acquires the ability to bind to a distinct set of genomic sites in tissue samples and that some of the genes that are regulated by the AR in these conditions correlate with poor prognosis. Based on this work we hypothesised that the AR is reprogrammed through interactions with other transcription factors. In the present study we show that GABPÃ¡, an ETS transcription factor which is upregulated in CRPC, is an AR-interacting transcription factor. Ectopic expression of GABPA in prostate cancer cell-lines enables them to acquire some of the molecular and cellular characteristics of CRPC tissues as well as more aggressive growth phenotypes. VCaP prostate cancer cells and Jurkat lymphoma cells were studied for the ETS factors ERG and GABPa binding sites. Each sample was compared to its input.

Effect of ETV1 knockdown on genome wide AR binding in LNCaP Cells

Project description:Translocation of ETS transcription factors including ERG and ETV1 occur in half of all prostate cancers. LNCaP cells harbor an ETV1 translocation. We performed ChIP-Seq analysis to determine the role of ETV1 on AR binding. The localization of enhancers were determined by H3K4me1 ChIP-Seq. To determine ETV1 and H3K4me1 localization, logarithmically growing cells

Genome wide mapping of NR4A binding reveals cooperativity with ETS factors to promote epigenetic activation of distal enhancers in acute myeloid leukemia cells [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:NR4As are critical tumor suppressors of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) whose expression is broadly silenced in leukemia initiating cell enriched populations from human patients relative to normal hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. Rescued NR4A expression in human AML cells inhibits proliferation and reprograms AML gene signatures via transcriptional mechanisms that remain to be elucidated. By intersecting an acutely regulated, NR4A1 dependent transcriptional profile with genome wide NR4A binding distribution, we now identify an NR4A targetome of 685 genes that are directly regulated by NR4A1. We show that NR4As regulate gene transcription primarily through interaction with distal enhancers that are co-enriched for both NR4A1 and ETS transcription factor motifs. Using a subset of NR4A activated genes, we demonstrate that the ETS factors ERG and FLI-1 are required for activation of NR4A bound enhancers and NR4A target gene induction. NR4A1 dependent recruitment of ERG and FLI-1 promotes binding of p300 histone acetyl transferase to activate NR4A bound enhancers. These findings disclose novel epigenetic mechanisms by which NR4As and ETS factors cooperate to drive NR4A dependent gene transcription in human AML cells.

RNAi profiling by array of human Ewings carcinoma cells to down regulate EWS-FLI1

Project description:We report here the DNA-binding profiles for all human and mouse ETS factors, which we generated using two different methods: a high-throughput microwell-based transcription factor DNA-binding specificity assay, and protein binding microarrays (PBMs). Both approaches reveal that the ETS binding profiles cluster into four distinct classes, and that all ETS factors linked to cancer, ERG, ETV1, ETV4 and FLI1, fall into just one of these classes. We identify amino acid residues that are critical for the differences in specificity between all the classes, and confirm the specificities in vivo using chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) for a member of each class. To determine whether the ChIP-seq peaks were near genes regulated by the respective ETS-factors, we used RNAi to downregulate EWS-FLI1 in SK-N-MC Ewing's sarcoma cells. The results indicate that even relatively small differences in in vitro binding specificity of a TF contribute to site selectivity in vivo.

Development of peptidomimetic inhibitors of the ERG gene fusion product in prostate cancer (expression)

Project description:Transcription factors play a key role in the development of diverse cancers, and therapeutically targeting them has remained a challenge. In prostate cancer, the gene encoding the transcription factor ERG is recurrently rearranged and plays a critical role in prostate oncogenesis. Here, we identified a series of peptides that interact specifically with the DNA binding domain of ERG. The most prevalent consensus peptide series matched the tumor suppressor Deleted in Liver Cancer 1 (DLC1). ERG inhibitory peptides and derived peptidomimetics (EIPs) bound with high affinity and specificity leading to proteolytic degradation of ERG. The EIPs attenuated ERG-mediated transcription, chromatin recruitment, protein-protein interactions, cell invasion, and tumor growth. Thus, peptidomimetic targeting of transcription factor fusion products may provide a promising therapeutic strategy for prostate cancer as well as other cancers.

Genomic mapping of ERG, AR, histone H3 monomethyl-K4, histone H3 trimethyl-K4 binding sites in mouse prostates in WT, ERG overexpression, Pten loss mouse prostates

Project description:Translocation of ETS transcription factors including ERG and ETV1 occur in half of all prostate cancers. We generated a mouse model of ERG ovexpression (Rosa26-ERG) which when crossed into prostate specific probasin-Cre, expressed ERG specifically in the prostate. We crossed Rosa26-ERG into Pten flox/flox allele to generate compound GEMM mouse. Here, we determined the genomic binding sites of ERG, AR, and the histone marks H3K4me1 and H3K4me3 that maps enhancers and promoters respectively in the prostates of these mice. The prostate of four six month old mice of each genotype were pooled. The chromatin was isolated and ChIP-Seq performed.

Therapeutic Targeting of BET Bromodomain Proteins in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (ChIP-Seq)

Project description:Men who develop metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) invariably succumb to the disease. The development and progression to CRPC following androgen ablation therapy is predominantly driven by unregulated androgen receptor (AR) signaling1-3. Despite the success of recently approved therapies targeting AR signaling such as abiraterone4-6 and second generation anti-androgens MDV3100 (enzalutamide)7,8, durable responses are limited, presumably due to acquired resistance. Recently JQ1 and I-BET, two selective small molecule inhibitors that target the amino-terminal bromodomains of BRD4, have been shown to exhibit antiproliferative effects in a range of malignancies9-12. Here we show that AR signaling-competent CRPC cell lines are preferentially sensitive to BET bromodomain inhibition. BRD4 physically interacts with the N-terminal domain of AR and can be disrupted by JQ111,13. Like the direct AR antagonist, MDV3100, JQ1 disrupted AR recruitment to target gene loci. In contrast to MDV3100, JQ1 functions downstream of AR, and more potently abrogated BRD4 localization to AR target loci and AR mediated gene transcription including induction of TMPRSS2-ERG and its oncogenic activity. In vivo, BET bromodomain inhibition was more efficacious than direct AR antagonism in CRPC xenograft models. Taken together, these studies provide a novel epigenetic approach for the concerted blockade of oncogenic drivers in advanced prostate cancer.

Binding of TMPRSS2-ERG to BAF Chromatin Remodeling Complexes Mediates Prostate Oncogenesis. [RNA-seq]

Project description:Chromosomal rearrangements resulting in the fusion of TMRPSS2, an androgen-regulated gene, and the ETS family transcription factor ERG occur in over half of prostate cancers. However, the mechanism by which ERG promotes oncogenic gene expression and proliferation remains incompletely understood. Here, we identify a binding interaction between ERG and the mammalian SWI/SNF (BAF) ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complex, which is conserved among other ETS factors, including ETV1, ETV4, and ETV5. We find that ERG drives genome-wide retargeting of BAF complexes in a manner dependent on binding of ERG to the ETS DNA motif. Moreover, ERG requires intact BAF complexes for chromatin occupancy and BAF complex ATPase activity for target gene regulation. In a prostate organoid model, BAF complexes are required for ERG-mediated basal-to-luminal transition, a hallmark of ERG activity in prostate cancer. These observations suggest a fundamental interdependence between ETS transcription factors and BAF chromatin remodeling complexes in cancer.
