Project description:The Ten-Eleven Translocation (TET)-mediated DNA modification pathway is intimately involved in transcriptional regulation. As the major catalytic product of TET enzymes, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) is enriched at selected enhancers in a tissue specific manner, with the underlying mechanism yet to be clarified. Here, we report a low complexity insert (LCI) domain within the TET2 catalytic domain that facilitates TET2 condensation and enables its precise chromatin binding, which leads to DNA demethylation at specific genomic regions. Perturbation of TET2 condensation results in promiscuous DNA demethylation that accounts for large-scale topological changes in the genome, which alter the expression of genes that associated with patient survival and ultimately suppresses leukemia cell growth both in vitro and in vivo. Our study illuminates a previously neglected liquid-like condensation property of TET2 in gene regulation and explores the potential of targeting biomolecular condensation of epigenetic enzymes for effective cancer intervention.

Project description:Ten-eleven translocation-2 (TET2) is a member of the methylcytosine dioxygenase family of enzymes implicated in cancer and in aging due to its role as a global epigenetic modifier. TET2 has a large N-terminal domain followed by a catalytic C-terminal. Previous reports have demonstrated that the catalytic domain remains active independent of the N-terminal domain. As such, the function of the N-terminus of this large protein remains poorly characterized. Here, we identify that several isoforms of the 14-3-3 family of proteins bind TET2. 14-3-3s bind TET2 when phosphorylated at serine 99 (S99). AMPK-mediated phosphorylation at S99 promotes TET2 stability and increases global DNA 5-hydroxymethylcytosine. 14-3-3s’ interaction with TET2 serves to protect S99 phosphorylation. Disruption of this interaction leads to both reduced TET2 phosphorylation and decreased protein stability. Furthermore, we identify that the protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) can interact with TET2 and dephosphorylates S99. Collectively, our study provides novel insights into the role of the N-terminal domain in TET2 regulation. Moreover, they demonstrate the dynamic nature of TET2 protein regulation that could have therapeutic implications for disease states resulting from reduced TET2 levels and/or activity.

Project description:The conversion of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) into 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) by ten-eleven translocation (Tet) family has recently been identified as a key process for active DNA demethylation, whose effects in the immune response is currently unknown. We used microarrays to characterize the regulation of Tet2 in T cells. We found that deletion of the Tet2 gene in T cells decreased expression of effector cytokines such as IFN-?, IL-17, and IL-10. To analyze the regulation of Tet2 in Th subset differentation, CD2(Cre)Tet2(f/f) mice were used to derive Tet2-deficient Th1 and Th17 cells, and Tet2(f/f) mice were used for Tet2-enriched Th1 and Th17 cells.

Project description:T cell function is regulated by epigenetic mechanisms. 5-methylcytosine (5mC) conversion to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) by ten-eleven translocation (Tet) proteins was identified to mediate DNA demethylation. Here, we characterize the genome-wide distribution of 5hmC in T cells using DNA immunoprecipitation coupled with high-throughput DNA sequencing. 5hmC marks signature genes associated with effector cell differentiation in the putative regulatory elements. Moreover, Tet2 protein is recruited to 5hmC-containing regions, dependent on lineage-specific transcription factors. Deletion of the Tet2 gene in T cells decreased their cytokine expression, associated with reduced p300 recruitment. In vivo, Tet2 plays a critical role in the expression of cytokine genes. Collectively, our findings for the first time demonstrate a key role of Tet-mediated active DNA demethylation in T cells. A total of 8 samples were analyzed. The expression patterns in Tet2 wild-type and deficient Th1 and Th17 cells were analyzed.

Project description:In this study: (1) we distinguished Tet2 target genes that are regulated by its catalytic vs. noncatalytic functions in ESCs by transcriptomic profiling of Tet2 wildtype (WT), Tet2 catalytic mutant (Mut), and Tet2 knockout (KO) mouse ESCs by RNA-seq. (2) We mapped genome-wide DNA methylation of Tet2-WT, Tet2-Mut, and Tet2-KO ESCs by WGBS, to establish a critical role for Tet2 in demethylating promoters and enhancers of its catalytic target genes. (3) We determined how the genome-wide occupancy of the epigenetic modifiers Sin3a and Sap30 and the enrichment of H3K27ac, are affected in Tet2-Mut and Tet2-KO ESCs versus Tet2-WT by CUT&Tag and identified that Tet2 deficiency diminishes Sin3a occupancy at promoters and enhancers. (4) We mapped Sin3a levels genome-wide in Tet1/2 double catalytic mutant (DMUT) and Tet1/2 double knockout (DKO) ESCs, and found that deficiency of both Tet1 and Tet2 resulted in decreased levels of Sin3a in a subset of active enhancers.

Project description:Execution of lineage-specific differentiation programs requires tight coordination between many regulators including Ten-eleven translocation (TET) family enzymes catalyzing 5-methylcytosine oxidation in DNA. Here, by using Keratin 14-Cre-driven ablation of Tet genes in skin epithelial cells, we demonstrate that ablation of Tet2/Tet3 result in marked alterations of hair shape and length followed by hair loss. We show that through DNA demethylation, Tet2/Tet3 control chromatin accessibility, Dlx3 binding and promoter activity of the Krt25 and Krt28 genes regulating hair shape, as well as regulate interactions between the Krt28 gene promoter and distal enhancer. Moreover, Tet2/Tet3 also control three-dimensional chromatin topology in Keratin type I/II gene loci via DNA methylation-independent mechanisms. These data demonstrate the essential roles for Tet2/3 in establishment of lineage-specific gene expression program and control of Dlx3/Krt25/Krt28 axis in hair follicle epithelial cells and implicate modulation of DNA methylation as a novel approach for hair growth control.

Project description:TET proteins are tumor suppressors that through their catalytic activity oxidize 5-methylcytosine to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, to promote DNA demethylation and to regulate gene expression. Notably, TET2 is the second most frequently mutated gene in hematological malignancies, including T cell lymphomas. However, murine models with deletion of TET2 do not exhibit T cell expansion, presumably due to redundancy with other members of the TET family of proteins. In order to gain insight on the TET mediated molecular events that safeguard T cells from aberrant proliferation we performed serial adoptive transfers of murine CD4 T cells that lack concomitantly TET2 and TET3 to fully immunocompetent congenic mice. Our data reveal a progressive acquisition of malignant traits upon loss of TET2 and TET3 that is characterized by loss of genomic integrity, acquisition of aneuploidy and upregulation of the protooncogene Myc.
