An Oncogenic Super-Enhancer Formed through Somatic Mutation of a Noncoding Intergenic Element

ABSTRACT: In many cancers, critical oncogenes are driven from large regulatory elements, called super-enhancers, which recruit much of the cellM-bM-^@M-^Ys transcriptional apparatus and are defined by extensive H3K27 acetylation. We found that in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), somatic heterozygous mutations introduce MYB binding motifs in a precise noncoding site, which nucleate a super-enhancer upstream of the TAL1 oncogene. Further analysis of genome-wide binding identified MYB and its histone acetylase binding partner CBP as core components of the TAL1 complex and of the TAL1-mediated feed-forward auto-regulatory loop that drives T-ALL. Furthermore, MYB and CBP occupy endogenous MYB binding sites in the majority of super-enhancer sites found in T-ALL cells. Thus, our study reveals a new mechanism for the generation of super-enhancers in malignant cells involving the introduction of somatic indel mutations within non-coding sequences, which introduce aberrant binding sites for the MYB master transcription factor.

Chem-Seq of chemical derivatives in MM1S cells

Project description:An ability to map the global interactions of a chemical entity with chromatin genome-wide could provide new insights into the mechanisms by which a small molecule perturbs cellular functions. we developed a method that uses chemical derivatives and massively parallel DNA sequencing (Chem-Seq) to identify the sites bound by small chemical molecules throughout the human genome. We developed in vivo and in vitro Chem-Seq protocols with a biotinylated derivative of small molecules. In the in vivo protocol, Cells were first treated with biotinylated ligand and cross-linked with formaldehyde at the same time. Cells were then lysed, sonicated to shear the DNA, and streptavidin beads were used to isolate biotinylated ligand and associated chromatin fragments. We then used massively parallel sequencing to identify the enriched DNA fragments, and mapped these sequences to the genome. In in vitrol protocol, MM1.S cells were fixed and the derived sonicated lysate incubated with biotinylated drug to enrich for bound chromatin regions in vitro. We then used massively parallel sequencing to identify the enriched DNA fragments, and mapped these sequences to the genome.

ChIP-Seq of TAL1 and its regulatory partners in T-ALL cells

Project description:The oncogenic transcription factor TAL1/SCL is aberrantly expressed in over 40% of cases of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), emphasizing its importance in the molecular pathogenesis of T-ALL. Here we identify the core transcriptional regulatory circuit controlled by TAL1 and its regulatory partners HEB, E2A, LMO1, LMO2, GATA3 and RUNX1 in T-ALL cells. We show that TAL1 forms an interconnected auto-regulatory loop with its partners, and that the TAL1 complex directly activates the MYB oncogene, forming a feed-forward positive regulatory loop that further promotes the TAL1-regulated oncogenic program. one of the cirtical downstream targets in this circuitry is the TRIB2 gene, which is oppositely regulated by TAL1 and HEB/E2A, and is essential for the survival of T-ALL cells. Human T-ALL cells were cross-linked with formaldehyde for 20 min. DNA was enriched by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and analyzed by Solexa sequencing. A sample of whole cell extract (WCE) was sequenced and used as the background to determine enrichment. ChIP was performed using an antibody against total TAL1 (Santa Cruz SC-12984), TCF12/HEB (Santa Cruz SC-357),TCF3/E2A (Santa Cruz SC-349X), LMO1 (Santa Cruz SC-10494), LMO2 (R&D AF2726),GATA3 (Santa Cruz SC-22206) and RUNX1 (Santa Cruz SC-8563). This represents the ChIP-seq portion of this dataset.

Somatic cell fusions reveal extensive heterogeneity in basal-like breast cancer [ChIP-Seq 3]

Project description:Basal-like and luminal breast tumors have distinct clinical behavior and molecular profiles, yet the underlying mechanisms are poorly defined. To interrogate processes that determine these distinct phenotypes and their inheritance pattern, we generated somatic cell fusions and performed integrated genetic and epigenetic (DNA methylation and chromatin) profiling. We found that the basal-like trait is generally dominant and it is largely defined by epigenetic repression of luminal transcription factors. Definition of super-enhancers highlighted a core program common in luminal cells but high degree of heterogeneity in basal-like breast cancers that correlates with clinical outcome. We also found that protein extracts of basal-like cells is sufficient to induce luminal-to-basal phenotypic switch implying a trigger of basal-like autoregulatory circuits. We determined that KDM6A might be required for luminal-basal fusions, and identified EN1, TBX18, and TCF4 as candidate transcriptional regulators of luminal-to-basal switch. Our findings highlight the remarkable epigenetic plasticity of breast cancer cells. Examination of histone H3K27Ac modifications in various breast cancer cell lines.

Transcription-associated Loading and Translocation of Condensin II on Chromosome Arms in Embryonic Stem Cells (flavopiridol ChIP-Seq)

Project description:Condensin molecules are loaded onto the genome to mediate essential changes in chromosome condensation during mitosis, but it is not clear why there are two forms of vertebrate condensin that become differentially distributed on chromosomes. We report here that condensin II, the form of condensin present in the nucleus throughout the cell cycle, functions specifically at active genes. Condensin II is loaded at transcriptionally active promoters in embryonic stem cells (ESCs), migrates through these genes in a transcription-dependent fashion and accumulates in transcription termination regions. Unlike cohesin, which is also loaded at active promoters, condensin II has little influence on transcription. We conclude that condensin II is loaded and distributed across actively transcribed chromatin and thus serves to specifically condense this euchromatic portion of chromosomes during the cell division cycle. ChIP-Seq data for Condensin II and Cohesin in v6.5 ESCs treated or not with the RNA polymerase II elongation inhibitor flavopiridol.

HSF1 drives a transcriptional program distinct from heat shock to support highly malignant human cancers [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Heat-Shock Factor 1 (HSF1), master regulator of the heat-shock response, facilitates malignant transformation, cancer cell survival and proliferation in model systems. The common assumption is that these effects are mediated through regulation of heat-shock protein (HSP) expression. However, the transcriptional network that HSF1 coordinates directly in malignancy and its relationship to the heat-shock response have never been defined. By comparing cells with high and low malignant potential alongside their non-transformed counterparts, we identify an HSF1-regulated transcriptional program specific to highly malignant cells and distinct from heat shock. Cancer-specific genes in this program support oncogenic processes: cell-cycle regulation, signaling, metabolism, adhesion and translation. HSP genes are integral to this program, however, even these genes are uniquely regulated in malignancy. This HSF1 cancer program is active in breast, colon and lung tumors isolated directly from human patients and is strongly associated with metastasis and death. Thus, HSF1 rewires the transcriptome in tumorigenesis, with prognostic and therapeutic implications. ChIP-seq was used to characterize HSF1 binding

Tight coordination of protein translation and heat shock factor 1 activation supports the anabolic malignant state [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:A unifying characteristic of aggressive cancers is a profound anabolic shift in metabolism to enable sustained proliferation and biomass expansion. The ribosome is centrally situated to sense metabolic states but whether it impacts systems that promote cellular survival is unknown. Here, through integrated chemical-genetic analyses, we find that a dominant transcriptional effect of blocking protein translation in cancer cells is complete inactivation of heat shock factor 1 (HSF1), a multifaceted transcriptional regulator of the heat-shock response and many other cellular processes essential for tumorigenesis. Translational flux through the ribosome reshapes the transcriptional landscape and links the fundamental anabolic processes of protein production and energy metabolism with HSF1 activity. Targeting this link deprives cancer cells of their energy and chaperone armamentarium thereby rendering the malignant phenotype unsustainable. We used ChIP-Seq to examine affect of rocaglates and cycloheximide on HSF1 genomic occupancy in MCF7 and M0-91 cancer cells.

Lineage reprogramming of adult mouse liver cells and B-lymphocytes to neural stem-like cells using defined factors

Project description:The overexpression of transcription factors Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc reprograms a somatic nucleus to one that is transcriptionally and epigenetically indistinguishable from an embryonic stem (ES) cell. However, it is still unclear if transcription factors can completely convert the nucleus of a differentiated cell into that of a distantly related cell type such that it maintains complete transcriptional and epigenetic reprogramming in the absence of exogenous factor expression. To test this idea, we screened a library of doxycycline-inducible vectors encoding neural stem cell (NSC)-expressed genes and found that stable, self-maintaining NSC-like cells could be induced under defined growth conditions after transduction of transcription factors. These induced NSCs (iNSCs) were characterized in the absence of exogenous factor induction and were shown to be transcriptionally, epigenetically, and functionally similar to endogenous embryonic cortical NSCs. Importantly, iNSCs could be generated from multiple adult cell types including liver cells and B-cells with genetic rearrangements. Our results show that self-maintaining proliferative neural cells can be induced from non-ectodermal cells by expressing specific combinations of transcription factors. ChIP-seq data from primary neural progenitor cells (Sox2-GFP) and induced neural progenitor cells were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina Hi-Seq 2000.
