Cancer associated SF3B1 hotspot mutations induce cryptic 3' splice site selection through use of a different branch point

ABSTRACT: Recurrent mutations in the spliceosome are observed in several human cancers but their functional and therapeutic significance remain elusive. SF3B1, the most frequently mutated component of the spliceosome in cancer, is involved in the recognition of the branch point sequence (BPS) during selection of the 3’ splice site (ss) in RNA splicing. Here, we report that common and tumor-specific splicing aberrations are induced by SF3B1 mutations and establish aberrant 3’ ss selection as the most frequent splicing defect. Strikingly, mutant SF3B1 utilizes a BPS that differs from that used by wild-type SF3B1 and requires the canonical 3’ ss to enable aberrant splicing during the second step. Approximately 50% of the aberrantly spliced mRNAs are subjected to nonsense-mediated decay resulting in downregulation of gene and protein expression. These findings ascribe functional significance to the consequences of SF3B1 mutations in cancer. 72 samples, including two sets of patient data and cell lines with two additional technical replicates each

Novel SF3B1 Deletion Mutations Result in Aberrant RNA Splicing in CLL Patients

Project description:Recurrent mutations in RNA splicing factors SF3B1, U2AF1, and SRSF2 have been reported in hematologic cancers including myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). However, SF3B1 is the only splicing associated gene to be found mutated in CLL and has been shown to induce aberrant splicing. To investigate if any other genomic aberration caused similar transcriptome changes, we clustered RNASeq samples based on an alternative 3’ splice site (ss) pattern previously identified in SF3B1-mutant CLL patients. Out of 215 samples, we identified 37 (17%) with alternative 3’ ss usage, the majority of which harbored known SF3B1 hotspot mutations. Interestingly, 3 patient samples carried previously unreported in-frame deletions in SF3B1 around K700, the most frequent mutation hotspot. To study the functional effects of these deletions, we used various minigenes demonstrating that recognition of canonical 3’ ss and alternative branchsite are required for aberrant splicing, as observed for SF3B1 p.K700E. The common mechanism of action of these deletions and substitutions result in similar sensitivity of primary cells towards splicing inhibitor E7107. Altogether, these data demonstrate that novel SF3B1 in-frame deletion events identified in CLL result in aberrant splicing, a common biomarker in spliceosome-mutant cancers.

Transcriptomic Characterization of PRP5 knockdown in HEK293T cells

Project description:Splicing abnormality has been observed in various types of SF3B1-mutated tumors. Aberrant usage of 3’SS has been established as the most frequent splicing defect and is attributed to altered BS selection. In this study, we examined whether reduced PRP5 expression would phenocopy the splicing defects of SF3B1 cancer mutations.

Hotspot SF3B1 mutations determine response to PARP inhibitors

Project description:Hotspot mutations in the spliceosomal component gene SF3B1 underpin a number of cancers and have a neomorphic function leading to global disruption of canonical splicing and aberrant splicing of hundreds of transcripts. However, the functional consequences of this misplicing and resultant genetic vulnerabilities imposed by these events are poorly understood. Through a synthetic-lethal approach we identify that SF3B1 mutant cells are selectively sensitive to PARP inhibitors. This vulnerability is preserved across multiple cell line and patent derived tumour models, independent of SF3B1 hotspot mutation and is manifested both in vitro and in vivo. These data provide the pre-clinical and mechanistic rationale for assessing SF3B1 mutations as a biomarker of single-agent PARP inhibitor response in a new patient population and may extend the clinical utility of these agents beyond BRCA mutated cancers.

RNAseq of 76 samples from Uveal Melanoma tumors

Project description:Hotspot mutations in the spliceosome gene SF3B1 are reported in 20% of uveal melanomas. SF3B1 is involved in 3'-splice site (3'ss) recognition during RNA splicing; however, the molecular mechanisms of its mutation have remained unclear. Here we show, using RNA-Seq analyses of uveal melanoma, that the SF3B1 R625/K666 mutation results in deregulated splicing at a subset of junctions, mostly by the use of alternative 3'ss

Mutations in splicing factor SF3B1 promote transformation through MYC stabilization

Project description:Although mutations in the RNA splicing factor SF3B1 are frequently observed in multiple human cancers, their functional role in promoting tumorigenesis and therapeutic significance remain poorly understood. Here we characterize the splicing landscape of 79 tumors and 12 isogenic cell lines harboring SF3B1 hotspot mutations, identifying hundreds of cryptic 3’ splice site (ss) events shared as well as specific to different tumor types. Regulatory network analysis shows that tumors harboring the most common hotspot mutation in SF3B1 (SF3B1K700E) activate the MYC transcriptional program. SF3B1 mutations lead to a dramatic decay of transcripts encoding the key PP2A phosphatase subunit PPP2R5A due to aberrant 3’ss usage, resulting in increased c-MYC serine 62 phosphorylation (allowing MYC to escape ubiquitin-mediated degradation) and in increased BCL2 serine 70 phosphorylation (leading to anti-apoptotic effects). This effect of SF3B1K700E on c-MYC and BCL2 activation through post-translational regulation was conserved across human and mouse cells and could be rescued by restored expression of PPP2R5A. Consonant with this, mutant SF3B1 promoted c-MYC driven tumorigenesis could be restored by the PP2A activating agent FTY-720. This study reveals the functional contribution of mutant SF3B1 to tumorigenesis through regulation of established oncogenic pathways and provides therapeutic strategies for related tumors.

Transcriptomic analyses of primary uveal melanomas

Project description:SF3B1 is coding an essential splicing factor. This gene was found recurrently mutated in uveal melanoma. To understand the consequences of these hotspot SF3B1 mutations, we performed high coverage RNA-seq on 74 primary uveal melanomas, which were treated by primary enucleation. We analyzed data for aberrant splicing in relation with SF3B1 status.

Distinct and convergent consequences of splice factor mutations in myelodysplastic syndromes

Project description:Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are characterized by recurrent somatic alterations often affecting components of RNA splicing machinery. Mutations of splice factors SF3B1, SRSF2, ZRSR2 and U2AF1 occur in >50% of MDS. To assess the impact of spliceosome mutations on splicing and to identify common pathways/genes affected by distinct mutations, we performed RNA-sequencing of 24 MDS bone marrow samples harboring spliceosome mutations (including hotspot alterations of SF3B1, SRSF2 and U2AF1; small deletions of SRSF2 and truncating mutations of ZRSR2), and devoid of other common co-occurring mutations. We uncover the landscape of splicing alterations in each splice factor mutant MDS and demonstrate that SRSF2 deletions cause highest number of splicing alterations compared with other spliceosome mutations. Although the mis-spliced events observed in different splice factor mutations were largely non-overlapping, a subset of genes, including EZH2, were aberrantly spliced in multiple mutant groups. Pathway analysis revealed that the mis-spliced genes in different mutant groups were enriched in RNA splicing and transport as well as several signaling cascades, suggesting converging biological consequences downstream of distinct spliceosome mutations.

H3B-8800, a novel oral splicing modulator, induces lethality in spliceosome mutant cancers [Nalm-6]

Project description:Genomic analyses of cancer have identified recurrent point mutations in the RNA splicing factors SF3B1, U2AF1, and SRSF2 that confer an alteration of function. Although cells bearing these mutations are preferentially dependent on wild-type (WT) spliceosome function, clinical means to therapeutically target the spliceosome do not currently exist. Here, we describe an orally available modulator of the SF3b complex, H3B-8800, which potently and selectively kills spliceosome-mutant epithelial and hematologic malignancies. The effects of H3B-8800 are entirely selective for the Sf3b complex, as evidenced by the identification of drug-resistant cells bearing mutations in Sf3b components. Although H3B-8800 modulates RNA splicing mediated by WT or cancer-associated SF3B1 mutants, its preferential effects on spliceosome-mutant cells is due to preferred retention of short, GC-rich introns, which are enriched in genes encoding a substantial number of spliceosome components. These data demonstrate the therapeutic potential of splicing modulation in spliceosome-mutant cancers.
