Two oppositely-chargedsf3b1 mutations cause defective development, impaired immune response, and aberrant selection of intronic branch sites in Drosophila

ABSTRACT: Somatic SF3b1 mutations occur in many cancers, and the highly conserved H662 residue is one of the most frequently mutated sites. To address their mechanism on splicing alteration and effects on development, we constructed mutant strains at the corresponding residue H698 in Drosophila using CRISPR-Cas9 system. Two mutations, H698D and H698R, were selected due to their presence in patients and the significantly opposite charges. Both the sf3b1-H698D and –H698R mutant flies exhibit developmental defects including less egg-laying, decreased hatching rates, delayed morphogenesis and shorter lifespan. Interestingly, the H698D mutant has decreased resistance to fungi infection, while the H698R mutant has impaired climbing ability. Further RNA-seq data finds altered expression of immunity response genes and changed alternative splicing of muscle and neural-related genes in the two mutants respectively. Lariat sequencing reveal that the sf3b1-H662 mutations cause aberrant selection of multiple intronic branch sites and the H698R mutant prefers to use upstream branch sites in the alternative splicing changed events. This study provides in vivo evidence from Drosophila to elucidate how the highly conserved SF3b1 cancer mutations alter splicing and their consequences in the development and immune systems.

Cancer associated SF3B1 hotspot mutations induce cryptic 3' splice site selection through use of a different branch point

Project description:Recurrent mutations in the spliceosome are observed in several human cancers but their functional and therapeutic significance remain elusive. SF3B1, the most frequently mutated component of the spliceosome in cancer, is involved in the recognition of the branch point sequence (BPS) during selection of the 3’ splice site (ss) in RNA splicing. Here, we report that common and tumor-specific splicing aberrations are induced by SF3B1 mutations and establish aberrant 3’ ss selection as the most frequent splicing defect. Strikingly, mutant SF3B1 utilizes a BPS that differs from that used by wild-type SF3B1 and requires the canonical 3’ ss to enable aberrant splicing during the second step. Approximately 50% of the aberrantly spliced mRNAs are subjected to nonsense-mediated decay resulting in downregulation of gene and protein expression. These findings ascribe functional significance to the consequences of SF3B1 mutations in cancer. 72 samples, including two sets of patient data and cell lines with two additional technical replicates each

GPATCH8 modulates mutant SF3B1 mis-splicing and pathogenicity in hematologic malignancies

Project description:Mutations in the RNA splicing factor gene SF3B1 are common across hematologic and solid cancers and result in widespread alterations in splicing, but therapeutic means to correct this mis-splicing do not exist. Here, we utilize synthetic introns uniquely responsive to mutant SF3B1 to identify trans factors required for aberrant mutant SF3B1 splicing activity. This revealed the G-patch domain-containing protein GPATCH8 as required for mutant SF3B1-induced splicing alterations and impaired hematopoiesis. GPATCH8 is involved in quality control of branchpoint selection, interacts with the RNA helicase DHX15, and functionally opposes SUGP1, a G-patch protein recently implicated in SF3B1-mutant diseases. Silencing of GPATCH8 corrected one-third of mutant SF3B1-dependent splicing defects and was sufficient to improve dysfunctional hematopoiesis in SF3B1-mutant mouse and primary human progenitors. These data identify GPATCH8 as a novel splicing factor required for mis-splicing by mutant SF3B1 and highlight the therapeutic impact of correcting aberrant splicing in SF3B1-mutant cancers.

Overlapping roles of spliceosomal components SF3B1 and PHF5A in rice splicing regulation

Project description:The SF3B complex, a multiprotein component of the U2 snRNP of the spliceosome, mediates branch point selection and facilitates spliceosome assembly and activation. Several splicing modulators bind the SF3B1 and PHF5A subunits of the SF3B complex and globally inhibit splicing. Engineered mutant variants of SF3B1 and PHF5A conferred tolerance to splicing inhibitors with only minor effects on gene expression and AS.

Mutant SF3B1 promotes AKT and NF-kB driven mammary tumorigenesis

Project description:Mutations in the core RNA splicing factor SF3B1 are prevalent in leukemias and uveal melanoma, but also recurrent in epithelial malignancies such as breast cancer. Whereas hotspot mutations in SF3B1 alter hematopoietic differentiation, whether SF3B1 mutations contribute to epithelial cancer development and progression is unknown. Here, we identify that SF3B1 mutations in mammary epithelial and breast cancer cells induce a recurrent pattern of aberrant splicing leading to activation of AKT and NF-kB, enhanced cell migration, and accelerated tumorigenesis. Transcriptomic analysis of human cancer specimens, MMTV-cre Sf3b1K700E/WT mice, and isogenic mutant cell lines identified hundreds of aberrant 3’ splice sites induced by mutant SF3B1, a portion of which were breast-specific. Across mouse and human tumors, mutant SF3B1 promoted aberrant splicing (dependent on aberrant branchpoints as well as pyrimidines downstream of the aberrant branchpoint) and consequent suppression of PPP2R5A and MAP3K7, critical negative regulators of AKT and NF-kB. Coordinate activation of NF-kB and AKT signaling was observed in the knock-in models, leading to accelerated cell migration and tumor development in combination with mutant PIK3CA but also hypersensitizing cells to AKT kinase inhibitors. These data identify mutations in SF3B1 as drivers of breast tumorigenesis and reveal unique vulnerabilities in cancers harboring them.

Mis-splicing of mitotic regulators sensitizes SF3B1-mutated human HSCs to CHK1 inhibition [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Splicing factor SF3B1 mutations are frequent somatic lesions in myeloid neoplasms that transform hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) by inducing mis-splicing of target genes. However, the molecular and functional consequences of SF3B1 mutations in human HSCs remain unclear. Here, we identify the mis-splicing program in human HSCs as a targetable vulnerability by precise gene editing of SF3B1 K700E mutations in primary CD34+ cells. Mutant SF3B1 induced pervasive mis-splicing and reduced expression of genes regulating mitosis in single cell transcriptomics, critically BUBR1 and CDC27, leading to altered differentiation and delayed G2/M progression. Mutant SF3B1 mis-splicing or reduced expression of BUBR1 and CDC27 was sufficient to delay G2/M transit, leading to activation of CHK1, sensitizing cells to CHK1 inhibition. Clinical CHK1 inhibitor prexasertib selectively targeted SF3B1-mutant HSCs and abrogated engraftment in vivo. These findings identify mis-splicing of mitotic regulators in SF3B1-mutant HSCs as a targetable vulnerability engaged by pharmacological CHK1 inhibition.
