Profiling of the Chromatin-associated Proteome Identifies HP1BP3 as a Novel Regulator of Cell Cycle Progression.

ABSTRACT: The chromatin-associated proteome (chromatome) regulates cellular gene expression by restricting access of transcriptional machinery to template DNA, and dynamic re-modeling of chromatin structure is required to regulate critical cell functions including growth and replication, DNA repair and recombination, and oncogenic transformation in progression to cancer. Central to the control of these processes is efficient regulation of the host cell cycle, which is maintained by rapid changes in chromatin conformation during normal cycle progression. A global overview of chromatin protein organization is therefore essential to fully understand cell cycle regulation, but the influence of the chromatome and chromatin binding topology on host cell cycle progression remains poorly defined. Here we used partial MNase digestion together with iTRAQ-based high-throughput quantitative proteomics to quantify chromatin-associated proteins during interphase progression. We identified a total of 481 proteins with high confidence that were involved in chromatin-dependent events including transcriptional regulation, chromatin re-organization, and DNA replication and repair, whereas the quantitative data revealed the temporal interactions of these proteins with chromatin during interphase progression. When combined with biochemical and functional assays, these data revealed a strikingly dynamic association of protein HP1BP3 with the chromatin complex during different stages of interphase, and uncovered a novel regulatory role for this molecule in transcriptional regulation. We report that HP1BP3 protein maintains heterochromatin integrity during G1-S progression and regulates the duration of G1 phase to critically influence cell proliferative capacity.

Project description:The identification of novel tumor-specific markers may improve understanding of melanoma progression and prognostic accuracy. Whole genome expression profiling of 46 primary melanomas, 12 metastases, and 16 normal skin samples using Affymetrix U133 PLUS 2.0 array generated gene lists including both known and new melanoma genes. The molecular genetic alterations contributing to the pathogenesis of melanoma are incompletely defined and few independent prognostic features have been identified beyond the pathologic characteristics of the primary tumor. Early stage melanoma is frequently curable, in contrast to the inferior prognosis of melanomas with regional lymph nodes involvement and the incurability of distant metastatic disease. The identification of novel tumor-specific markers may improve our understanding of melanoma progression and prognostic accuracy. To find differentially expressed genes that can distinguish melanoma from normal tissue, we performed a whole genome expression profiling of 46 primary melanoma samples, 12 regional or distant metastases, and 16 normal skin samples using Affymetrix U133 2.0 Plus array. Our study generated lists of differentially expressed genes in melanoma and identified novel prognostic marker HMGA2. It is a novel, highly overexpressed melanoma gene associated with poor prognosis. The overexpression of HMGA2 is strongly associated with regional and distant metastases and serves as an independent predictor of disease-free survival and overall survival in melanoma. Melanoma samples were obtained through an IRB-approved protocol using informed consent at the University of Michigan Multidisciplinary Melanoma Clinic. A portion of pigmented lesions clinically suspicious for melanoma and known melanoma were sampled by punch biopsy at the time of excision. The punch biopsy was bisected; half was sent to for clinical diagnosis and the other half along with adjacent normal skin when available immediately snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen. Snap-frozen tissue was embedded in OCT (TissueTek) followed by frozen sectioning and H&E slide preparation. The slides were evaluated by dermatopathologist who identified areas with greater than 70% tumor cellularity, which were sampled for RNA extraction. Primary melanomas and melanoma metastases were derived from different patients. Metastatic samples included lymph nodes (n=8), subcutaneous soft tissue (n=2), spleen (n=1), and small intestine (n=1).

Project description:BackgroundFrontotemporal dementia (FTD) is caused by frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), characterized mainly by inclusions of Tau (FTLD-Tau) or TAR DNA binding43 (FTLD-TDP) proteins. Plasma biomarkers are strongly needed for specific diagnosis and potential treatment monitoring of FTD. We aimed to identify specific FTD plasma biomarker profiles discriminating FTD from AD and controls, and between FTD pathological subtypes. In addition, we compared plasma results with results in post-mortem frontal cortex of FTD cases to understand the underlying process.MethodsPlasma proteins (n = 1303) from pathologically and/or genetically confirmed FTD patients (n = 56; FTLD-Tau n = 16; age = 58.2 ± 6.2; 44% female, FTLD-TDP n = 40; age = 59.8 ± 7.9; 45% female), AD patients (n = 57; age = 65.5 ± 8.0; 39% female), and non-demented controls (n = 148; 61.3 ± 7.9; 41% female) were measured using an aptamer-based proteomic technology (SomaScan). In addition, exploratory analysis in post-mortem frontal brain cortex of FTD (n = 10; FTLD-Tau n = 5; age = 56.2 ± 6.9, 60% female, and FTLD-TDP n = 5; age = 64.0 ± 7.7, 60% female) and non-demented controls (n = 4; age = 61.3 ± 8.1; 75% female) were also performed. Differentially regulated plasma and tissue proteins were identified by global testing adjusting for demographic variables and multiple testing. Logistic lasso regression was used to identify plasma protein panels discriminating FTD from non-demented controls and AD, or FTLD-Tau from FTLD-TDP. Performance of the discriminatory plasma protein panels was based on predictions obtained from bootstrapping with 1000 resampled analysis.ResultsOverall plasma protein expression profiles differed between FTD, AD and controls (6 proteins; p = 0.005), but none of the plasma proteins was specifically associated to FTD. The overall tissue protein expression profile differed between FTD and controls (7-proteins; p = 0.003). There was no difference in overall plasma or tissue expression profile between FTD subtypes. Regression analysis revealed a panel of 12-plasma proteins discriminating FTD from AD with high accuracy (AUC: 0.99). No plasma protein panels discriminating FTD from controls or FTD pathological subtypes were identified.ConclusionsWe identified a promising plasma protein panel as a minimally-invasive tool to aid in the differential diagnosis of FTD from AD, which was primarily associated to AD pathophysiology. The lack of plasma profiles specifically associated to FTD or its pathological subtypes might be explained by FTD heterogeneity, calling for FTD studies using large and well-characterize cohorts.
