ASXL3 bridges BRD4 to BAP1 complex and governs enhancer activity in small cell lung cancer

ABSTRACT: The bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) protein BRD4 functions as a transcriptional activator and is a therapeutic target for different human cancers. Here, we report a critical link between Polycomb repressive deubiquitinase-BAP1 (PR-DUB) complex and BRD4, which is bridged by the physical interaction between additional sex combs-like protein 3 (ASXL3) in small cell lung cancer (SCLC). We further showed that ASXL3 functions as an adaptor protein, which directly interacts with BRD4-extra-terminal (ET) domain via a novel BRD4 binding motif (BBM), and maintains chromatin occupancy of BRD4 at active enhancers. Genetic depletion of ASXL3 leads to a genome-wide reduction of histone H3K27Ac levels as well as BRD4 occupancy, resulting in a similar change of gene expression profile induced by BET inhibitors. Pharmacologically-induced inhibition with BET specific chemical degrader (dBET6) selectively inhibits cell proliferation of a subtype of SCLC, characterized with high expression of ASXL3. Collectively, this study provides mechanistic insight into the oncogenic function of ASXL3-BRD4 axis in SCLC.

Therapeutic targeting of BAP1/ASXL3 sub-complex in ASCL1-dependent small cell lung cancer

Project description:Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive disease, with patients diagnosed with either early-stage, limited stage, or extensive stage of SCLC tumor progression. Discovering and targeting the functional biomarkers for SCLC will be crucial in understanding the molecular basis underlying SCLC tumorigenesis to better assist in improving clinical treatment. Emerging studies have demonstrated that dysregulations in BAP1 histone H2A deubiquitinase complex are collectively associated with pathogenesis in human SCLC. Here, we investigated the function of the oncogenic BAP1/ASXL3/BRD4 epigenetic axis in SCLC by developing a next-generation BAP1 inhibitor, iBAP-II, and focusing on the epigenetic balance established between BAP1 and non-canonical PRC1 complexes in regulating SCLC-specific transcriptional programming. We further demonstrated that pharmacologic inhibition of BAP1’s catalytic activity dramatically disrupted BAP1/ASXL3/BRD4 epigenetic axis by inducing protein degradation of the ASXL3 scaffold protein, which bridges BRD4 and BAP1 at active enhancers. Furthermore, treatment of iBAP-II dramatically inhibits SCLC cell viability and tumor growth in vivo via repression of neuroendocrine lineage-specific ASCL1/MYCL/E2F signaling in cells.

Functions of BET proteins in GATA1-mediated transcription [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Transcription factor GATA1 binding in erythroblasts in the presence and absence of BET inhibitor JQ1, and BET protein BRD3 and BRD4 binding in erythroblasts in the presence and absence of GATA1. Inhibitors of Bromodomain and Extra-Terminal motif proteins (BETs) are being evaluated for the treatment of cancer and other diseases yet their physiologic mechanisms remain largely unknown. We used genomic and genetic approaches to examine BET function in a hematopoietic maturation system driven by GATA1, an acetylated transcription factor previously shown to interact with BETs. We found that while BRD3 occupied the majority of GATA1 binding sites, BRD2 and BRD4 were also recruited to a subset of GATA1-occupied sites. Functionally, BET inhibition impaired GATA1-mediated transcriptional activation, but not repression, genome-wide. Co-activation by BETs was accomplished both by facilitating genomic occupancy of GATA1 and subsequently supporting transcription activation. Using a combination of CRISPR/CAS9-mediated genomic engineering and shRNA approaches we observed that depletion of either BRD2 or BRD4 alone blunted erythroid gene activation, while depletion of BRD3 only affected erythroid transcription in the setting of BRD2 deficiency. These results suggest that pharmacologic BET inhibition should be interpreted in the context of distinct steps in transcriptional activation and partially overlapping functions among BET family members. GATA1 null erythroblasts (G1E) conditionally expressing GATA1 as a GATA1-ER fusion protein were induced to express GATA1 by addition of 100nM estradiol for 24 hours. For GATA1 binding experiments this occurred in the absence or presence of 250nM JQ1. For BRD3 and BRD4 occupancy experiments G1E cells were compared to G1E cells with activated GATA1-ER fusion protein.

Acute loss of BRD4 halts global transcriptional elongation and collapses the core regulatory circuitry of acute lymphoblastic leukemia [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Cancer arises from the malignant interplay between oncogenic signaling and cell specification. Transcriptionally activated stem, growth and survival programs reshape an epigenomic identity defined by a transcriptional core regulatory circuitry. To study and disrupt oncogenic transcription, we first created inhibitors of BET bromodomains. Selective antagonism of oncogenic transcriptional signaling arises from bromodomain-specific activity. Recently, we innovated a strategy to induce selective and pronounced degradation of BET coactivator proteins via phthalimide conjugation for E3 ubiquitin ligase recruitment. Degraders of BET bromdomains (dBETs) exhibited superior efficacy to bromodomain inhibitors in cultivated leukemia cells, through unknown mechanisms. Here, we use chemically optimized small-molecule degronimids and kinetic measures of chromatin structure and function to unveil an unrecognized, essential role for BRD4 in the control of global productive transcriptional elongation. Rapid loss of BRD4 attenuates phosphorylation of the carboxy-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II, independent of genomewide recruitment of CDK9 to promoters, leading to a collapse of the transcriptional core regulatory circuitry. These mechanistic studies are performed in translational models of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, a disease emblematic for transcriptional addiction, to establish a rationale for human clinical investigation.

Acute perturbation strategies in interrogating RNA Polymerase II elongation factor function in gene expression

Project description:The regulation of gene expression catalyzed by RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) requires a host of accessory factors to ensure cell growth, differentiation, and survival under environmental stress. Here, using the auxin-inducible degradation (AID) system to study transcriptional activities of the bromodomain and extra terminal domain (BET) and Super Elongation Complex (SEC) families, we found that the CDK9-containing BRD4 complex is required for the release of Pol II from promoter-proximal pausing for most genes, while the CDK9-containing SEC is required for activated transcription in the heat shock response. By using both the Proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC) dBET6 and the AID system, we found that dBET6 treatment results in two major effects: the increased pausing due to BRD4 loss, and reduced enhancer activity attributable to BRD2 loss. In the heat shock response, while auxin-mediated depletion of the AFF4 subunit of SEC has a more severe defect than AFF1 depletion, simultaneous depletion of AFF1 and AFF4 leads to a stronger attenuation of the heat shock response, similar to treatment with the SEC inhibitor KL-1, suggesting a possible redundancy among SEC family members. This study highlights the usefulness of orthogonal acute depletion/inhibition strategies to identify distinct and redundant biological functions among Pol II elongation factor paralogs.

Transcriptome analysis upon Nipbl, Brd2 and Brd4 knockdown in P19 cells

Project description:Mutations in NIPBL are the major cause of Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS). NIPBL is the cohesin loading factor and has recently been associated with the BET (Bromodomains and Extra Terminal (ET) domain) proteins BRD2 and BRD4. Related to this, a CdLS-like phenotype has been described associated to BRD4 mutations. To understand the relationship between NIPBL and BET proteins, we have performed RNA-Seq expression analysis following depletion of the different proteins in mouse P19 teratocarcinoma cells. Results indicate that genes regulated by NIPBL largely overlap with those regulated by BRD4 but not with those regulated by BRD2.
