Examination of gene expression in response to ING2 knockdown by siRNA in human breast cancer cells

ABSTRACT: The Sin3/HDAC multi-protein complex consists of at least 17 subunits and is known to have roles in diverse biological and cellular processes including transcription, chromatin structure, and the cell cycle. ING2 is a non-catalytic component of this complex. To obtain a better mechanistic understanding of the Sin3/HDAC complex in cancer, we extended its protein-protein interaction network and identified a mutually exclusive pair within the complex. Suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) is an FDA approved HDAC inhibitor used for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. We assessed the effects of SAHA on the disruption of the complex network through six homologous baits. SAHA perturbs multiple protein interactions and therefore compromises the composition of large parts of the Sin3/HDAC network. A comparison of the effect of SAHA treatment on gene expression in breast cancer cells to a knockdown of the ING2 subunit indicated that a portion of the anticancer effects of SAHA may be attributed to the disruption of ING2’s association with the complex. ING2 siRNA knockdowns in human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 were compared to a non-targeting control in triplicate, for a total of 6 samples.

Project description:The Sin3 histone deacetylase (HDAC) complex is a 1.2 MDa chromatin modifying complex that can repress transcription by binding to gene promoters and deacetylating histones. The Sin3/HDAC complex can affect cell cycle progression through multiple mechanisms and is among the targets of anticancer drugs, called HDAC inhibitors. We describe the identification of a new subunit of the Sin3 complex named family with sequence similarity 60 member A (FAM60A). We show that FAM60A/Sin3 complexes normally suppress the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and cell migration. This occurs through transcriptional repression of genes that encode components of the TGF-beta signaling pathway. This work reveals that FAM60A and the Sin3 complex are upstream repressors of TGF-beta signaling, EMT and cell migration and extends the known biological roles of the Sin3 complex. This experiment investigates the role of FAM60A in gene expression by comparing A549 lung cancer cells treated with or without siRNA against FAM60A.

SDS3 is a core component of the Sin3 complex. The Sin3/HDAC complex can affect cell cycle progression through multiple mechanisms and is among the targets of anticancer drugs, called HDAC inhibitors.

As a base line to better understand the relationship between FAM60A and the Sin3 complex, this experiment investigates the gene expression changes which occur in A549 lung cancer cells when the Sin3 complex is perturbed by knockdown of a core component via siRNA against SDS3. FAM60A siRNA knockdowns were compared to a non-targeting control in triplicate, for a total of 6 samples. SDS3 siRNA knockdowns were compared to a non-targeting control in triplicate, for a total of 6 samples.
