RAS and PP2A activities converge on epigenetic gene regulation [ATAC-Seq]

ABSTRACT: RAS-mediated human cell transformation requires inhibition of the tumor suppressor Protein Phosphatase 2A (PP2A). Both RAS and PP2A mediate their effects by phosphoregulation, but phosphoprotein targets and cellular processes in which RAS and PP2A activities converge in human cancers have not been systematically analyzed. Here, based on mass spectrometry phosphoproteome data we discover that phosphosites co-regulated by RAS and PP2A are enriched on proteins involved in epigenetic gene regulation. As examples, RAS and PP2A co-regulate the same phosphorylation sites on HDAC1/2, KDM1A, MTA1/2, RNF168 and TP53BP1. Mechanistically, we validate co-regulation of NuRD chromatin repressor complex by RAS and PP2A. Consistent with their known synergistic effects in cancer, RAS activation and PP2A inhibition resulted in epigenetic reporter de-repression and activation of oncogenic transcription. Notably, transcriptional de-repression by PP2A inhibition was associated with increased euchromatin and decrease in global DNA methylation. Further, targeting of RAS- and PP2A-regulated epigenetic proteins decreased viability of KRAS-mutant human lung cancer cells. Collectively the results indicate that epigenetic protein complexes involved in oncogenic gene expression constitute a significant point of convergence for RAS hyperactivity and PP2A inhibition in cancer. Further, this work provides a resource for future studies focusing on phosphoregulation as a previously unappreciated layer of regulation of epigenetic gene regulation in cancer, and in other RAS/PP2A-regulated cellular processes.

Project description:Padala2017- ERK, PI3K/Akt and Wnt signalling network (Ras mutated) Crosstalk model of the ERK, Wnt and Akt signalling pathways with Ras mutation. This model is described in the article: Cancerous perturbations within the ERK, PI3K/Akt, and Wnt/?-catenin signaling network constitutively activate inter-pathway positive feedback loops. Padala RR, Karnawat R, Viswanathan SB, Thakkar AV, Das AB. Mol Biosyst 2017 May; 13(5): 830-840 Abstract: Perturbations in molecular signaling pathways are a result of genetic or epigenetic alterations, which may lead to malignant transformation of cells. Despite cellular robustness, specific genetic or epigenetic changes of any gene can trigger a cascade of failures, which result in the malfunctioning of cell signaling pathways and lead to cancer phenotypes. The extent of cellular robustness has a link with the architecture of the network such as feedback and feedforward loops. Perturbation in components within feedback loops causes a transition from a regulated to a persistently activated state and results in uncontrolled cell growth. This work represents the mathematical and quantitative modeling of ERK, PI3K/Akt, and Wnt/?-catenin signaling crosstalk to show the dynamics of signaling responses during genetic and epigenetic changes in cancer. ERK, PI3K/Akt, and Wnt/?-catenin signaling crosstalk networks include both intra and inter-pathway feedback loops which function in a controlled fashion in a healthy cell. Our results show that cancerous perturbations of components such as EGFR, Ras, B-Raf, PTEN, and components of the destruction complex cause extreme fragility in the network and constitutively activate inter-pathway positive feedback loops. We observed that the aberrant signaling response due to the failure of specific network components is transmitted throughout the network via crosstalk, generating an additive effect on cancer growth and proliferation.
