Targeting Menin disrupts the KMT2A/B and polycomb balance to paradoxically activate bivalent genes [CUT&TAG]

ABSTRACT: Precise control of activating H3K4me3 and repressive H3K27me3 histone modifications at bivalent promoters is essential for normal development and is frequently corrupted in cancer. By coupling a cell surface readout of bivalent MHC class I gene expression with whole genome CRISPR/Cas9 screens, we identify specific roles for MTF2-PRC2.1, PCGF1-PRC1.1 and Menin- KMT2A/B complexes in maintaining bivalency. Unexpectedly, genetic loss or pharmacological inhibition of Menin phenocopies the effects of polycomb disruption, resulting in derepression of bivalent genes in both cancer cells and pluripotent stem cells. Whilst Menin and KMT2A/B contribute to H3K4me3 at active genes, a separate Menin-independent function of KMT2A/B maintains H3K4me3 and opposes polycomb-mediated repression at bivalent genes. Release of KMT2A from active genes following Menin targeting alters the balance of polycomb and KMT2A at bivalent genes, facilitating gene activation. This functional partitioning of Menin-KMT2A/B complex components reveals novel therapeutic opportunities that can be leveraged through inhibition of Menin.

Targeting Menin disrupts the KMT2A/B and polycomb balance to paradoxically activate bivalent genes [CRISPR]

Project description:Precise dynamic control of activating H3K4me3 and repressive H3K27me3 histone modifications at bivalent gene promoters is essential for normal development and frequently corrupted in cancer. Using whole genome CRISPR/Cas9 screens we identify specific roles for MTF2-PRC2.1 and PCGF1-PRC1.1 polycomb complexes, and MLL1/2-COMPASS-like complex components in maintaining bivalency. Contrary to expectations, loss of Menin or inhibition of the Menin-MLL1/2 interaction, induces activation of bivalent genes via loss of polycomb-mediated repression and defines distinct roles for MLL1/2 and Menin in gene regulation. Whilst Menin and MLL1/2 contribute to maintenance H3K4me3 at active genes, a separate Menin-independent function of MLL1/2 opposes polycomb mediated repression at bivalent genes. MLL1/2 are essential for basal transcription and, although dispensable for transcription factor driven activation, facilitate transcriptional consistency during dynamic changes in gene expression. This functional partitioning of COMPASS complex components reveals therapeutic opportunities to target oncogenic and immunosuppressive functions of PRC2 through pharmacological inhibition of Menin.

Non-Canonical PRC1.1 is required for the activity of Menin-MLL1 Inhibitors in NUP98-Rearranged AML [SLAM-Seq]

Project description:Translocations involving the Nucleoporin 98 (NUP98) gene predict a poor prognosis for patients with acute myeloid leukemia. These translocations generate NUP98-fusion proteins which interact with the mixed-lineage leukemia (MLL1/KMT2A) chromatin modifying enzyme and its binding partner Menin. The mechanisms by which the NUP98-fusion proteins maintain gene expression remain unclear. We demonstrate that the NUP98-fusion-Menin-KMT2A complex is essential for maintenance of H3K27Ac and active transcription at key loci such as Meis1 and the Hox cluster, among others. However, eviction of the complex from chromatin is insufficient to completely silence gene expression. Accumulation of the PRC1.1 complex and deposition of H2aK119Ub and H3K27Me3 is required to transition to a transcriptionally repressive chromatin state. Furthermore, we demonstrate that loss of PRC1.1 function leads to resistance to small molecule Menin inhibitors. Therefore, a critical function of the NUP98-fusion-Menin-KMT2A complex is to antagonize repressive chromatin complexes. These same mechanisms are critical for efficacy of newly developed therapeutics.
