The SWI/SNF ATPase BRG1 facilitates multiple pro-tumorigenic gene expression programs in SMARCB1-deficient cancer cells

ABSTRACT: Here, we expose the connection between rSWI/SNF and oncogenic processes using a well-characterized chemical degrader to deplete the SWI/SNF ATPase, BRG1. Using a combination of gene expression and chromatin accessibility assays we show that rSWI/SNF complexes facilitate MYC target gene expression. We also find that rSWI/SNF maintains open chromatin at sites associated with hallmark cancer genes linked to the AP-1 transcription factor, suggesting that AP-1 may drive oncogenesis in MRT.

The SWI/SNF ATPase BRG1 facilitates multiple pro-tumorigenic gene expression programs in SMARCB1-deficient cancer cells.

Project description:Malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT) is driven by the loss of the SNF5 subunit of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex and then thought to be maintained by residual SWI/SNF (rSWI/SNF) complexes that remain present in the absence of SNF5. rSWI/SNF subunits colocalize extensively on chromatin with the transcription factor MYC, an oncogene identified as a novel driver of MRT. Currently, the role of rSWI/SNF in modulating MYC activity has neither been delineated nor has a direct link between rSWI/SNF and other oncogenes been uncovered. Here, we expose the connection between rSWI/SNF and oncogenic processes using a well-characterized chemical degrader to deplete the SWI/SNF ATPase, BRG1. Using a combination of gene expression and chromatin accessibility assays we show that rSWI/SNF complexes facilitate MYC target gene expression. We also find that rSWI/SNF maintains open chromatin at sites associated with hallmark cancer genes linked to the AP-1 transcription factor, suggesting that AP-1 may drive oncogenesis in MRT. Interestingly, changes in MYC target gene expression are not overtly connected to the chromatin remodeling function of rSWI/SNF, revealing multiple mechanisms used by rSWI/SNF to control transcription. This work provides an understanding of how residual SWI/SNF complexes may converge on multiple oncogenic processes when normal SWI/SNF function is impaired.

Super enhancer dysregulation in rhabdoid tumor cells is regulated by the SWI/SNF ATPase BRG1

Project description:Mutations in the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex occur in ~20% of cancers. In rhabdoid tumors defined by loss of the SWI/SNF subunit SMARCB1, dysregulation of enhancer-mediated gene expression is pivotal in driving oncogenesis. Enhancer dysregulation in this setting is tied to retention of the SWI/SNF ATPase BRG1—which becomes essential in the absence of SMARCB1—but precisely how BRG1 contributes to this process remains unknown. To characterize how BRG1 participates in chromatin remodeling and gene expression in SMARCB1-deficient cells, we performed a genome-wide characterization of the impact of BRG1 depletion in multiple rhabdoid tumor cell lines. We find that although BRG1-regulated open chromatin sites are distinct at the locus level, the biological characteristics of the loci are very similar, converging on a set of thematically related genes and pointing to involvement of the AP-1 transcription factor. The open chromatin sites regulated by BRG1 colocalize with histone-marked enhancers and intriguingly include almost all super-enhancers, revealing that BRG1 plays a critical role in maintaining super-enhancer function in this setting. These studies can explain the essentiality of BRG1 to rhabdoid tumor cell identity and survival and implicate the involvement of AP-1 as critical downstream effector of pro-tumorigenic transcriptional programs.

Development of an orally bioavailable SWI/SNF ATPase degrader and acquired mechanisms of resistance [WES]

Project description:SWI/SNF ATPase degraders have been shown to be effective in enhancer-driven cancers by functioning to impede oncogenic transcription factor chromatin accessibility. Here we developed AU-24118, a first-in-class, orally bioavailable degrader of SMARCA2/4 and PBRM1. AU-24118 demonstrated tumor regression in a castration resistant model of prostate cancer which was further enhanced in combination with enzalutamide. Prostate cancer cell lines exposed to increasing doses of a SWI/SNF degrader developed SMARCA4 bromodomain mutations and ABCB1 overexpression as acquired mechanisms of resistance. While SMARCA4 mutations provided specific resistance to SWI/SNF degraders, ABCB1 overexpression provided broader resistance to other compounds as well as could be overcome with ABCB1 inhibition.

Multiple interactions of the oncoprotein transcription factor MYC with the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeler

Project description:We report that even though SNF5 is the most well-documented SWI/SNF subunit to bind MYC, MYC can use multiple interaction surfaces to interact with SWI/SNF subunits independently of SNF5. In line with this, MYC interacts with the pan-SWI/SNF subunit, BAF155, in multiple SNF5-null malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT) cell lines and almost all of MYC co-localizes with SWI/SNF subunits on chromatin in MRT. In the MRT cell line, G401, MYC binds to essential genes, although for a purpose that appears distinct from chromatin remodeling, and loss of MYC leads to widespread gene expression changes. Analysis of specific MYC-SWI/SNF target genes in G401 cells reveals that this group of genes are associated with core biological functions linked to protein synthesis and their transcription is directly activated by MYC. These data provide a solid framework in which to interrogate the influence of SWI/SNF on MYC function in cancers in which SWI/SNF or MYC are altered.

Protein-protein interactions of BRG1 or BRG1-HSA in SW13 cells

Project description:The SWI/SNF complex remodels chromatin in an ATP-dependent manner through the ATPase subunits BRG1 and BRM. Chromatin remodeling alters nucleosome structure to change gene expression, however aberrant remodeling and gene expression can result in cancer. The function and localization on chromatin of the SWI/SNF complex depends on the protein makeup of the complex. Here we report the protein-protein interactions of wild-type BRG1 or mutant BRG1 in which the HSA domain has been deleted (BRG1-HSA). We demonstrate the interaction of BRG1 with most SWI/SNF complex members and a failure of a number of these members to interact with BRG1-HSA. These results demonstrate that the HSA domain of BRG1 is a critical interaction platform for the correct formation of SWI/SNF remodeling complexes.

SMARCB1 loss creates patient-specific MYC topologies that drive malignant rhabdoid tumor growth [RNA-seq]

Project description:Malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT) is a highly malignant and often lethal childhood cancer. MRTs are genetically defined by bi-allelic inactivating mutations in SMARCB1, a member of the BRG1/BRM-associated factors (BAF) chromatin remodeling complex. Mutations in BAF complex members are common in human cancer. Yet, their contribution to tumorigenesis remains in many cases poorly understood. Here, we studied derailed regulatory landscapes as a consequence of SMARCB1 loss in the context of MRT. Our multi-omics approach on patient-derived MRT organoids revealed a dramatic reshaping of the regulatory landscape upon SMARCB1 reconstitution. Chromosome conformation capture experiments subsequently revealed patient-specific looping of distal enhancer regions with the promoter of the MYC oncogene. This intertumoral heterogeneity in MYC enhancer utilization is also present in patient MRT tissues as shown by combined single-cell RNA-seq and ATAC-seq. We show that loss of SMARCB1 drives patient-specific epigenetic reprogramming underlying MRT tumorigenesis.
