ETV6 Deficiency and Microsatellite Enhancers Drive Transcriptional Dysregulation in B-Lymphoblastic Leukemia: ATAC-Seq data

ABSTRACT: Distal enhancers play critical roles in sustaining oncogenic gene expression programs. We obtained ATAC-Seq data and ChIP-Seq data using antibodies against the H3K27ac histone mark, transcription factors ERG and ETV6, and input chromatin from B-ALL cell lines and comparator B-cell cancer cell lines, including B-ALL with biallelic ETV6 inactivation, ETV6-RUNX1, and intact ETV6. We identify aberrant enhancer-like activation of GGAA tandem repeats as a characteristic feature of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) with genetic defects of the ETV6 transcriptional repressor, including ETV6-RUNX1+ and ETV6-null B-ALL. We show that GGAA repeat enhancers are direct activators of previously identified ETV6-RUNX1+ B-ALL “signature” genes, including likely oncogenic drivers. When restored to ETV6-deficient B-ALL cells, ETV6 directly binds to GGAA repeat enhancers, represses their acetylation, downregulates adjacent genes, and inhibits B-ALL growth. In ETV6-deficient B-ALL cells, we find that the ETS transcription factor ERG directly binds to GGAA microsatellite enhancers and is required for sustained activation of many repeat enhancer-activated genes. Together, our findings reveal a novel epigenetic gatekeeper function of the ETV6 tumor suppressor gene and establish microsatellite enhancers as a key mechanism underlying the unique gene expression program of ETV6-RUNX1+ B-ALL.

A novel role for the EWS portion of EWS/FLI in binding GGAA-microsatellites required for oncogenic transformation in Ewing sarcoma [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Ewing sarcoma usually expresses the EWS/FLI fusion transcription factor oncoprotein. EWS/FLI regulates myriad genes required for Ewing sarcoma development. EWS/FLI binds GGAA-microsatellite sequences in vivo and in vitro, and these sequences provide EWS/FLI-mediated activation to reporter constructs, suggesting that they function as EWS/FLI-response elements. Genomic GGAA-microsatellites are highly variable and polymorphic. Current data suggest that there is an optimal “sweet-spot” GGAA-microsatellite length (of 18-26 GGAA repeats) that confers maximal EWS/FLI-responsiveness to target genes, but the mechanistic basis for this was not known. We now demonstrate the absolute necessity of an EWS/FLI-bound GGAA-microsatellite in regulation of the NR0B1 gene, as well as for Ewing sarcoma proliferation and oncogenic transformation. Biochemical studies, using recombinant Δ22 (a version of EWS/FLI containing only the FLI portion) demonstrated a stoichiometry of one Δ22-monomer binding to every two consecutive GGAA-repeats on shorter GGAA-microsatellite sequences. Surprisingly, the affinity for Δ22 binding to GGAA-microsatellites significantly decreased, and ultimately became unmeasureable, when the size of the GGAA-microsatellite was increased to the “sweet-spot” length. In contrast, a fully-functional EWS/FLI mutant (Mut9) that retains approximately half of the EWS portion of the fusion showed low affinity for smaller GGAA-microsatellites, but instead significantly increased its affinity at “sweet-spot” microsatellite lengths. Single-gene ChIP and genome-wide ChIP-seq and RNA-seq studies extended these findings to the in vivo setting. Taken together, these data demonstrate the absolute requirement of GGAA-microsatellites as EWS/FLI activating response elements in vivo and reveal an unsuspected novel role for the EWS portion of the EWS/FLI fusion in binding to optimal-length GGAA-microsatellites.

Effect of RREB1 knockdown using siRNA in A673 Ewing sarcoma cells (RNA-seq)

Project description:Ewing sarcoma (EwS) is a rare bone and soft tissue malignancy driven by chromosomal translocations encoding chimeric transcription factors, such as EWSR1-FLI1, that bind GGAA motifs forming novel enhancers that alter nearby expression. We propose germline microsatellite variation at the 6p25.1 EwS susceptibility locus could impact downstream gene expression and EwS biology. We performed targeted long-read sequencing of EwS blood DNA to characterize variation and genomic features important for EWSR1-FLI1 binding. We identified 50 microsatellite alleles at 6p25.1 and observed EwS cases had longer alleles (>135 bp) with more GGAA repeats. The 6p25.1 GGAA microsatellite showed chromatin features of an EWSR1-FLI1 enhancer, and regulated expression of RREB1, a transcription factor associated with RAS/MAPK signaling. RREB1 knockdown reduced proliferation and clonogenic potential, and reduced expression of cell cycle and DNA replication genes. Our integrative analysis at 6p25.1 details increased binding of longer GGAA microsatellite alleles with acquired EWSR-FLI1 to promote Ewing sarcomagenesis by RREB1-mediated proliferation.

Genome-wide chromatin analysis of Ewing sarcoma (RNA-seq)

Project description:We show that EWS-FLI1, an aberrant transcription factor responsible for the pathogenesis of Ewing sarcoma, reprograms gene regulatory circuits by directly inducing or directly repressing enhancers. At GGAA repeats, which lack regulatory potential in other cell types and are not evolutionarily conserved, EWS- FLI1 multimers potently induce chromatin opening, recruit p300 and WDR5, and create de novo enhancers. GGAA repeat enhancers can loop to physically interact with target promoters, as demonstrated by chromosome conformation capture assays. Conversely, EWS-FLI1 inactivates conserved enhancers containing canonical ETS motifs by displacing wild-type ETS transcription factors and abrogating p300 recruitment. Ewing sarcoma cell lines (A673 and SKNMC) were analyzed by RNA-seq. EWS-FLI1 was depleted by infection with lentiviral shRNAs (shFLI1 and shGFP control).

Epigenome editing of microsatellite repeat enhancers reveals specific regulatory functions and tumor dependencies [NRO-Seq]

Project description:Various types of repetitive sequences are dysregulated in cancer but their contributions to oncogenesis are yet to be determined. Here we combine nascent transcription profiling with epigenome editing to test the function of GGAA microsatellites in Ewing sarcoma, a pediatric bone cancer where the oncogenic fusion protein EWS-FLI1 induces chromatin features of active enhancers at this class of repeats. Silencing of chromatin through epigenome editing at specific GGAA repeats abolished local nascent transcription, decreased the expression of neighboring target genes and, in the case of a repeat associated with the SOX2 locus, reduced the growth of tumor xenografts. Our studies directly demonstrate that repeat elements can acquire enhancer functions in cancer and become critical components of oncogenic gene regulation programs.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and a Ewing sarcoma cell line (SKNMC) were analyzed by ATAC-seq. EWS-FLI1 was expressed in MSCs using a lentiviral vector (pLIV EWSFLI1 or pLIV empty vector control). * Raw data not provided for the MSC samples. *
