Ubiquitin-dependent turnover of MYC promotes loading of the PAF complex on RNA Polymerase II to drive transcriptional elongation (RNA-seq)

ABSTRACT: The MYC transcription factor is an unstable protein and its turnover is controlled by the ubiquitin system. Ubiquitination enhances MYC-dependent transactivation, but the underlying mechanism remains unresolved. Here we show that proteasomal turnover of MYC is dispensable for recruitment of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII), but is required to promote transcriptional elongation at MYC target genes. Degradation of MYC stimulates histone acetylation and recruitment of BRD4 and P-TEFb to target promoters, leading to phosphorylation of RNAPII CTD and the release of elongating RNAPII. In the absence of degradation, the RNA polymerase II-associated factor (PAF) complex associates with MYC via interaction of its CDC73 subunit with a conserved domain in the amino-terminus of MYC ("MYC box I"), suggesting that a MYC/PAF complex is an intermediate in transcriptional activation. Since histone acetylation depends on a second highly conserved domain in MYCs amino-terminus ("MYC box II"), we propose that both domains co-operate to transfer elongation factors onto paused RNAPII. RNA-Seq Experiments were performed in a primary breast epithelial cell line (IMEC).The cell line expressed doxycycline-inducible versions of MYC (WT;Kless,Swap=WTN-KC). Where indicated cells were transfected with siRNAs (siCtrl;siSKP2). Where indicated cells were treaed with the proteasome inhibitor MG132 or EtOH as solvent control. DGE was performed by comparing Dox-treated populations expressing either Dox-inducible MYC or a vector control or comparing Dox-induced cells with EtOH (solvent control) treated cells.

Ubiquitin-dependent turnover of MYC promotes loading of the PAF complex on RNA Polymerase II to drive transcriptional elongation (ChIP-seq)

ChIP-Seq experiments for MYC-HA (HA-IP) and RNAPII (total,Ser2p,Ser5p) performed in IMEC primary breast epithelial cells. Input-samples were sequenced as controls.

A MYC-driven change in mitochondrial dynamics limits stem cell properties of mammary epithelial cells (RNA-seq)

Project description:In several developmental lineages, an increase in expression of the MYC proto-oncogene drives the transition from quiescent stem cells to transit amplifying cells. The mechanism by which MYC restricts self-renewal of adult stem cells is unknown. Here, we show that MYC activates a stereotypic transcriptional program of genes involved in protein translation and mitochondrial biogenesis in mammary epithelial cells and indirectly inhibits the YAP/TAZ co-activators that are essential for mammary stem cell self-renewal. We identify a phospholipase of the mitochondrial outer membrane, PLD6, as the mediator of MYC activity. PLD6 mediates a change in the mitochondrial fusion/fission balance that promotes nuclear export of YAP/TAZ in a LATS- and RHO-independent manner. Mouse models and human pathological data confirm that MYC suppresses YAP/TAZ activity in mammary tumors. PLD6 is also required for glutaminolysis, arguing that MYC-dependent changes in mitochondrial dynamics balance cellular energy metabolism with the self-renewal potential of adult stem cells. RNA-Seq Experiments in 2 different primary breast epithelial cell lines (HMLE, which were sorted according to CD44/CD24 surface markers & unsorted IMEC). Both cell lines expressed a doxycycline-inducible version of MYC. For the HMLE cell line DGE analysis was performed for the uninduced (EtOH) situation, comparing CD44high vs CD44 low and for the induced situation Dox vs. EtOH for the CD44high population. For the IMEC cell line DGE was performed by comparing Dox-treated populations expressing either Dox-inducible MYC or a vector control which allows to filter out potential effects due to doxycycline treatment.

Tumor cell-specific inhibition of MYC function using small molecule inhibitors of the HUWE1 ubiquitin ligase

Project description:Deregulated expression of MYC is a driver of colorectal carcinogenesis, necessitating novel strategies to inhibit MYC function. The ubiquitin ligase HUWE1 (HECTH9, ARFBP1, MULE) associates with both MYC and the MYC-associated protein MIZ1. We show here that HUWE1 is required for growth of colorectal cancer cells in culture and in orthotopic xenograft models. Using high throughput screening, we identify small molecule inhibitors of HUWE1, which inhibit MYC-dependent transactivation in colorectal cancer cells, but not in stem and normal colon epithelial cells. Inhibition of HUWE1 stabilizes MIZ1. MIZ1 globally accumulates on MYC target genes and contributes to repression of MYC-activated target genes upon HUWE1 inhibition. Our data show that transcriptional activation by MYC in colon cancer cells requires the continuous degradation of MIZ1 and identify a novel principle that allows for inhibition of MYC function in tumor cells. MIZ1 and MYC ChIPseq experiments in HUWE1 inhibitor-treated Ls174T cells as well as RNAseq experiments in HUWE1- or MIZ1-depleted Ls174T cells after HUWE1 inhibitor treatment. Sequencing was performed on an Illumina Genome Analyzer IIx.

Interaction with WDR5 promotes target gene recognition and tumorigenesis by MYC

Project description:We report a comparison of the genome-wide binding patterns of MYC and WDR5, and the effects of a mutation in MYC (WBM) that disrupt the MYC-WDR5 interaction. The experimental design included two distinct experimental strategies. For comparison of genome-wide binding patters of wild-type (WT) and WDR5 binding-deficient (WBM) MYC, HEK293 cells were engineered by retroviral transduction to express either FLAG-tagged WT-MYC, FLAG-tagged WBM-MYC, or an empty vector control ("vec") ChIP was performed on all samples using the anti-FLAG antibody, and co-precipitating DNAs subject to next-generation sequencing. Samples "2514-WPT-1_1", "2514-WPT-5_1" and "2514-WPT-13_1" are three independent biological replicates of ChIPs performed on the "vec" control cells (i.e., those not expressing any exogenous MYC). Samples "2514-WPT-2_1", "2514-WPT-6_1" and "2514-WPT-10_1" are three independent biological replicates of ChIPs performed on the WT-MYC expressing cells. "2514-WPT-3_1", "2514-WPT-7_1" and "2514-WPT-11_1" are three independent biological replicates of ChIPs performed on the WBM-MYC expressing cells. For comparison of these binding patterns with those of WDR5, we performed ChIP in HEK293 cells with either an antibody against WDR5, or with IgG (negative control). Samples "2514-WPT-23_1", "2514-WPT-25_1", and "2514-WPT-27_1" are independent biological replicates of ChIPs performed with the anti-WDR5 antibody. Samples "2514-WPT-24_1", "2514-WPT-26_1", and "2514-WPT-28_1" are independent biological replicates of ChIPs performed with the negative IgG control.

Dual regulation of Fbw7 function and oncogenic transformation by Usp28

Project description:Fbw7, the substrate recognition subunit of SCF(Fbw7) ubiquitin ligase, mediates turnover of multiple proto-oncoproteins and promotes its own degradation. Fbw7-mediated substrate degradation is antagonized by the Usp28 deubiquitinase. We now show, using knockout mice, that Usp28 preferentially deubiquitinates and stabilizes Fbw7. Monoallelic deletion of Usp28 maintains stable Fbw7 but destabilizes Fbw7 substrates. In contrast, complete knockout of Usp28 promotes Pin1-dependent autocatalytic turnover of Fbw7, accumulation of Fbw7 substrates and oncogenic transformation. Overexpression of Usp28 stabilizes both Fbw7 and its substrates and similarly enhances transformation. We propose that dual regulation of Fbw7 activity by Usp28 maintains physiological levels of Fbw7 substrates, and that both loss and overexpression of Usp28 in human cancer promote Fbw7 substrate accumulation. RNAseq experiments of E13.5 murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) derived from animals in which Usp28 was either deleted (-/-), wildtype (+/+) or heterozygous (+/-). In a first set of experiments immortalized MEFs of all three genotypes were analysed in biological triplicates. In a second set of experiments immortalized and Ras transformed MEFs of all three genotypes and MEFs which overexpress USP28 (+/+/+) where sequenced in duplicates.

Activation and repression by oncogenic Myc shapes tumour-specific gene expression profiles

Project description:In mammalian cells, the Myc oncoprotein binds to thousands of promoters. During mitogenic stimulation of primary lymphocytes, Myc promotes an increase in expression of virtually all genes. In contrast, Myc-driven tumour cells differ from normal cells in expression of specific sets of up- and downregulated genes that have significant prognostic value. To understand this discrepancy, we studied the consequences of inducible expression and depletion of Myc in human cells and murine tumour models. Changes in Myc levels activate and repress specific sets of direct target genes that are characteristic of Myc-transformed tumour cells. Three factors account for this specificity: First, the magnitude of response parallels the change in occupancy by Myc at each promoter. Functionally distinct classes of target genes differ in the E-box sequence bound by Myc, arguing that different cellular responses to physiological and oncogenic Myc levels are controlled by promoter affinity. Secondly, Myc both positively and negatively affects transcription initiation independent of its effect on transcriptional elongation. Third, complex formation with Miz1 mediates repression of multiple target genes by Myc and the ratio of Myc and Miz1 bound to each promoter correlates with the direction of response. Myc, Miz1 and RNA polymerase II ChIPseq as well as RNAseq experiments in two human cancer cell lines and murine carcinoma cells as well as fibroblasts from Miz1M-bM-^HM-^FPOZ mice. All sequencing experiment were performed on an Illumina Genome Analyzer IIx.

The 3’-UTR of MYC couples RNA polymerase II function to ribonucleotide levels

Project description:Deregulated expression of MYC enhances glutamine utilization and renders cell survival dependent on glutamine, inducing “glutamine addiction”. Surprisingly, colon cancer cells that express high levels of MYC due to WNT pathway mutations, are not glutamine-addicted but undergo a reversible cell cycle arrest upon glutamine deprivation. We show here that glutamine deprivation suppresses translation of endogenous MYC via the 3’-UTR of the MYC mRNA, enabling escape from apoptosis. This regulation is mediated by glutamine-dependent changes in adenosine nucleotide levels. Glutamine deprivation causes a global reduction in promoter association of RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII) and slows transcriptional elongation. While activation of MYC restores binding of MYC and RNAPII function on most promoters, restoration of elongation is imperfect and activation of MYC in the absence of glutamine causes stalling of RNAPII on multiple genes, correlating with R-loop formation. Stalling of RNAPII and R-loop formation can cause DNA damage, arguing that the MYC 3’-UTR is critical for maintaining genome stability when ribonucleotide levels are low.

MYC enhancer invasion promotes prognostic cancer type-specific gene programs through an epigenetic switch

Project description:The transcription factor MYC is overexpressed in most cancers, where it drives multiple hallmarks of cancer progression. MYC is known to promote oncogenic transcription by binding to active promoters. In addition, MYC has also been shown to invade distal enhancers when expressed at oncogenic levels, but this enhancer binding has been proposed to have low gene-regulatory potential. Here, we demonstrate that MYC enhancer binding directly promotes cancer type-specific gene programs predictive of poor patient prognosis. MYC induces transcription of enhancer RNA through recruitment of RNAPII, rather than regulating RNAPII pause-release as is the case at promoters. This is mediated by MYC-induced H3K9 demethylation by KDM3A and acetylation by GCN5, leading to enhancer-specific BRD4 recruitment through its bromodomains, which facilitates RNAPII recruitment. Thus, we propose that MYC drives prognostic cancer type-specific gene programs by promoting RNAPII recruitment to enhancers through induction of an epigenetic switch.
