Mutations in histone and other genes in MLL2-impaired human and mouse cells

ABSTRACT: We used human or mouse MLL2-impaired cells (including a human DSET MLL2 cell line,) as well as their parental controls, and measured mutations in histones and a few other genes that were affected in our gH2AX ChIP-Seq experiments. We found that cells lacking or having impaired MLL2 were presenting statistically signifficant, higher levels of mutations at the tested genes as compared to their parental controls. The experiments were performed using human and mouse cells. For the human cells, the parental HCT116 cells were used as control. Two different MLL2 KO clones (KO19 and KO34) and a DSET MLL2 cell line were employed. For the mouse cells, the F/F cells were used, in which both MLL2 alleles are targeted by loxp. Tamoxifen treatment for 24 hours results in the excision of both MLL2 alleles (FC/FC cells). F/F cells were treated with tamoxifen (FC/FC) or vehicle (DMSO, F/F) for 24 hours. Half of the cells were then harvested and used as controls (T0), while the other half were cultured for another 30 days (T30). Mutations after 30 days (T30) of tamoxifen/vehicle treatment were measured compared to the T0 controls. In all cases, two different pools of primers were employed. All histone genes available to target with high coverage were studied, in either human or mouse cells. For the human cells, 32 histone (HIST1H1A HIST1H1B HIST1H1C HIST1H1D HIST1H1E HIST1H1T HIST1H2AC HIST1H2AD HIST1H2AG HIST1H2AH HIST1H2AI HIST1H2AJ HIST1H2AK HIST1H2BF HIST1H2BG HIST1H2BH HIST1H2BI HIST1H2BJ HIST1H2BK HIST1H2BN HIST1H3B HIST1H3C HIST1H3D HIST1H3E HIST1H3F HIST1H3G HIST1H3H HIST1H3I HIST1H4B HIST1H4F HIST1H4J HIST2H2AC) and 6 other genes (BTG2 SGK1 MDM2 CDKN1A EGR1 RPLP0) were targeted. For the mouse cells, 21 histone (HIST1H1A HIST1H1B HIST1H1C HIST1H1D HIST1H1E HIST1H1T HIST1H2AK HIST1H2BQ HIST1H3B HIST1H3C HIST1H3F HIST1H4F HIST1H4J HIST1H4N HIST1H4N HIST2H2AA1 HIST2H2AA1 HIST2H2AA2 HIST2H2AA2 HIST2H2AC HIST2H2BB) and 6 other genes (BTG2 SGK1 MDM2 CDKN1A EGR1 RPLP0) were targeted.

Genome instability is a recurring feature of tumorigenesis. Mutation in MLL2, encoding a histone methyltransferase, is a driver in numerous different cancer types, but the mechanism is unclear. Here, we present evidence that MLL2 mutation results in genome instability. Mouse cells in which MLL2 gene deletion can be induced display elevated levels of sister chromatid exchange, gross chromosomal aberrations, 53BP1 foci, and micronuclei. Human MLL2 knockout cells are characterized by genome instabi ...[more]

Project description:A balance between cell survival and apoptosis is essential for animal development. Although proper development involves multiple interactions between germ layers, little is known about the intercellular and intertissue signaling pathways that promote cell survival in neighboring or distant germ layers . We show that serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase 1 (SGK1) promoted ectodermal cell survival during early Xenopus embryogenesis through a non-cell-autonomous mechanism. Dorsal depletion of SGK1 in Xenopus embryos resulted in shortened axes and reduced head structures with defective eyes, and ventral depletion led to defective tail morphologies. Although the gene encoding SGK1 was mainly expressed in the endoderm and dorsal mesoderm, knockdown of SGK1 caused excessive apoptosis in the ectoderm. SGK1-depleted ectodermal explants showed little or no apoptosis, suggesting non-cell-autonomous effects of SGK1 on ectodermal cells. Microarray analysis revealed that SGK1 knockdown increased the expression of genes encoding FADD and caspase-10, components of the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC). Inhibition of DISC function suppressed excessive apoptosis in SGK1-knockdown embryos. SGK1 acted through the transcription factor nuclear factor kappaB to stimulate production of bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP7), and overexpression of BMP7 in SGK1-knockdown embryos reduced the abundance of DISC components. We show that phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) functioned upstream of SGK1, thus revealing an endodermal and mesodermal pathway from PI3K to SGK1 to NF-kappaB that produces BMP7, which provides a survival signal to the ectoderm by decreasing DISC function. To identify genes whose expression levels are regulated by SGK1 in Xenopus development, we performed genome-wide analysis by using Affymetrix GeneChip oligonucleotide microarrays. We performed two independent experiments. For each microarray experiment, we radially injected control-morpholino or xSGK1-morpholinos into 4-cell embryos, cultured the embryos until stage 12, extracted total RNAs using Trizol (Invitrogen) and purified them on RNeasy columns (Qiagen). Synthesis of cDNA, in vitro transcription and biotin labeling of cRNA, and hybridization to the Xenopus laevis genome array (Affymetrix) were performed according to the Affymetrix protocol (Two-Cycle Target Labeling Assays). Hybridized arrays were scanned using an Affymetrix GeneChip Scanner. Scanned chip images were analyzed with GeneChip Operating Software (GCOS) v. 1.4.
