Distinct and convergent consequences of splice factor mutations in myelodysplastic syndromes

ABSTRACT: 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.

Aberrant splicing of U12-type introns is the hallmark of ZRSR2 mutant myelodysplastic syndrome

Project description:Somatic mutations in the spliceosome gene ZRSR2 (located on the X chromosome) are associated with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). ZRSR2 is involved in the recognition of 3' splice site during the early stages of spliceosome assembly; however, its precise role in RNA splicing has remained unclear. Here, we characterize ZRSR2 as an essential component of the minor spliceosome (U12-dependent) assembly. shRNA mediated knockdown of ZRSR2 leads to impaired splicing of the U12-type introns, and RNA-Sequencing of MDS bone marrow reveals that loss of ZRSR2 activity causes increased mis-splicing. These splicing defects involve retention of the U12-type introns while splicing of the U2-type introns remain mostly unaffected. ZRSR2 deficient cells also exhibit reduced proliferation potential and distinct alterations in myeloid and erythroid differentiation in vitro. These data identify a specific role for ZRSR2 in RNA splicing and highlight dysregulated splicing of U12-type introns as a characteristic feature of ZRSR2 mutations in MDS. RNA sequencing was performed on 16 bone marrow samples (MDS and normal) and six samples of control or ZRSR2 shRNA transduced TF-1 cells and data was analysed for aberrant splicing caused by ZRSR2 mutations/deficiency.

Mutant U2AF1-Induced Alternative Splicing of H2afy (macroH2A1) Regulates B-Lymphopoiesis in Mice

Project description:Acquired spliceosome gene mutations are among the most common genetic alterations in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Here we present evidence that H2AFY(macroH2A1), a histone H2A variant, is a functional target that is alternatively spliced by mutant U2AF1(S34F), a spliceosome gene. Expression of H2AFY1.1, a H2AFY splice-isoform that is reduced by U2AF1(S34F) expression, rescues the reduction in B-cells observed in U2AF1(S34F) mice. Human MDS samples with U2AF1 mutations have a similar reduction in B-cells. Collectively, our data suggest that altered splicing of H2AFY contributes to MDS pathogenesis.

RNA sequencing of bone marrow CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells from patients with myelodysplastic syndrome and healthy controls

Project description:SF3B1, SRSF2 and U2AF1 are the most frequently mutated splicing factor genes in MDS. We have performed a comprehensive analysis to determine the impact of these commonly mutated splicing factors on pre-mRNA splicing in the stem/progenitor cells and in the erythroid and myeloid precursors in splicing factor mutant MDS. Using RNA-seq, we determined the aberrantly spliced genes and dysregulated pathways in bone marrow CD34+ cells of a large group of 82 MDS patients. Splicing factor mutations in MDS result in different mechanistic alterations in splicing and largely affect different genes, but these converged in common dysregulated pathways and cellular processes, including RNA splicing, translation and mitochondrial dysfunction, indicating that these mutations operate through common mechanisms in MDS. Many of these dysregulated pathways and cellular processes can be linked to the known disease pathophysiology and to the phenotypes associated with splicing factor mutations in MDS, whilst several others have not been previously associated with MDS, such as sirtuin signalling.

ZRSR1 cooperates with ZRSR2 in regulating splicing of U12-type introns in murine hematopoietic cells

Project description:Recurrent loss-of-function mutations of spliceosome gene, ZRSR2, occur in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Mutation/loss of ZRSR2 in human myeloid cells primarily causes impaired splicing of the U12-type introns. To investigate further the role of this splice factor in splicing and hematopoietic development, we generated mice lacking ZRSR2. Unexpectedly, Zrsr2-deficient mice developed normal hematopoiesis with no abnormalities in myeloid differentiation evident in either young or ≥1-year old knockout mice. Repopulation ability of Zrsr2-deficient hematopoietic stem cells was also unaffected in reconstitution assays. Myeloid progenitors lacking ZRSR2 exhibited mis-splicing of U12-type introns, however, this phenotype was moderate compared to the ZRSR2-deficient human cells. Our investigations revealed that a closely related homolog, Zrsr1, expressed in the murine hematopoietic cells, but not human, contributes to splicing of U12-type introns. Depletion of Zrsr1 in Zrsr2 KO myeloid cells exacerbated retention of the U12-type introns, thus highlighting a collective role of ZRSR1 and ZRSR2 in murine U12-spliceosome. We also demonstrate that aberrant retention of U12-type introns of MAPK9 and MAPK14 leads to their reduced protein expression. Overall, our findings highlight that both ZRSR1 and ZRSR2 are functional components of the murine U12-spliceosome, and depletion of both proteins is required to model accurately ZRSR2-mutant MDS in mice.

DNA Replication Stress Due to Loss of R-Loops in Myelodysplastic Syndromes with SF3B1 Mutation

Project description:Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) with mutated SF3B1 gene have many features including a favorable outcome that are distinct from MDS with mutations in other splicing factor genes SRSF2 or U2AF1. Molecular bases of these divergences are poorly understood. Here we show that SF3B1-mutated MDS are characterized by a dramatically reduced R-loop formation predominating in gene bodies, which tightly associates with reduced retention of introns specifically found in SF3B1-mutated, but not in U2AF1- or SRSF2-mutated MDS. Compared to erythroblasts from SRSF2- or U2AF1-mutated patients, SF3B1-mutated erythroblasts exhibited augmented DNA synthesis, accelerated replication forks, and single-stranded DNA exposure upon differentiation, which were recapitulated in murine Sf3b1K700E/+ proerythroblasts. Importantly, R-loop formation was restored by histone deacetylase inhibition using SAHA/vorinostat, which improved Sf3b1K700E/+ erythroblast differentiation. In conclusion, loss of R-loops with associated DNA replication stress is a hallmark of SF3B1- mutated MDS ineffective erythropoiesis, which could be used as a new therapeutic target.

K562-U2AF1_S34F treated with U2AF1-UHM inhibitor, SF1-8

Project description:Mutations in RNA splicing factor genes including SF3B1, U2AF1, SRSF2, and ZRSR2 have been reported to contribute to development of myeloid neoplasms including myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML). Chemical tools targeting cells carrying these mutant genes remain limited and underdeveloped. Among the four proteins, mutant U2AF1 (U2AF1mut) acquires an altered 3’ splice site selection preference and co-operates with the wild-type U2AF1 (U2AF1wt) to change various gene isoform patterns to support MDS cells survival and proliferation. U2AF1 mutations in MDS cells are always heterozygous and the cell viability is reduced when exposed to additional insult affecting U2AF1wt function. To investigate if the pharmacological inhibition of U2AF1wt function can provoke drug-induced vulnerability of cells harboring U2AF1mut, we conducted a fragment-based library screening campaign to discover compounds targeting the U2AF homology domain (UHM) in U2AF1 that is required for the formation of the U2AF1/U2AF2 complex to define the 3' splice site. The most promising hit (SF1-8) selectively inhibited growth of leukemia cell lines overexpressingU2AF1mut and human primary MDS cells carrying U2AF1mut. RNA-seq analysis of K562-U2AF1mut following treatment with SF1-8 further revealed alteration of isoform patterns for a set of proteins that impair or rescue pathways associated with endocytosis, intracellular vesicle transport, and secretion. Our data suggested that further optimization of SF1-8 is warranted to obtain chemical probes that can be used to evaluate the therapeutic concept of inducing lethality to U2AF1mut cells by inhibiting the U2AF1wt protein.
