Identification and characterization of pathogenic ZNF687 variant in acute myeloid leukemia

ABSTRACT: Analysis of Beat AML sequencing data revealed a recurrent frameshift variant (R939Pfs*Ter36) in Zinc Finger 687 (ZNF687) that was observed in ~1% of patients and has not been previously described. ZNF687 encodes a transcription factor containing DNA binding C2H2 zinc finger and has been studied in select other malignancies, including Paget’s disease of bone that is associated with giant cell tumor (PDB/GCT) and hepatocellular carcinoma. It is part of a network with ZMYND8 and two additional zinc finger proteins, ZNF592 and ZNF532, that associate with H3K4 demethylation machinery and regulates gene transcription. The R939Pfs*Ter36 frameshift induced overexpression of ZNF687 compared with wild-type, and the overexpressed protein was mislocalized to the cytoplasm. We further performed RNA sequencing on HEK293 cells expressing the frameshift variant, wild-type, or a previously identified variant (P937R) that has been reported as a germline ZNF687 variant characterized to predispose to PDB/GCT. We observed the R939Pfs*Ter36 frameshift to induce activation of oxidative phosphorylation, inactivation of histone methylation machinery, and significant downregulation of lysine methyltransferase 2D (KMT2D) compared with wild-type and P937R. Overall, these findings suggest that ZNF687 R939Pfs*Ter36 plays an important role in AML pathogenesis, which could aid in diagnostic precision, and may impact therapeutic responses.

A frameshift variant in the specificity protein 1 triggers superactivation of Sp1-mediated transcription in familial bone marrow failure

Project description:Inherited bone marrow failure (BMF) syndromes are a heterogeneous group of diseases characterised by defective hematopoiesis and often predispose to myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia. We have studied a large family consisting of several affected individuals with hematological abnormalities including one family member who died of acute leukemia. By whole exome sequencing, we identified a novel frameshift variant in the ubiquitously expressed transcription factor specificity protein 1 SP1). This heterozygous variant (c.1995delA) truncates the canonical Sp1 molecule in the highly conserved C-terminal DNA binding zinc finger domains. Functional characterisation of the truncated Sp1 molecule revealed compromised DNA binding ability and educed stability. Transcriptomic analysis and gene promoter characterisation in patients’ blood revealed a hypermorphic effect of this Sp1 variant, triggering superactivation of Sp1-mediated transcription and driving a significant upregulation of Sp1 target genes. his familial genetic study indicates a central role for Sp1 in causing autosomal dominant transmission of BMF, thereby confirming its critical role in hematopoiesis in humans.

The short isoform of the host antiviral protein ZAP acts as an inhibitor of SARS-CoV-2 programmed ribosomal frameshifting

Project description:Programmed ribosomal frameshifting (PRF) is a fundamental gene expression event in many viruses, including SARS-CoV-2. It allows production of essential viral structural and replicative enzymes that are encoded in an alternative reading frame. Despite the importance of PRF for the viral life cycle, it is still largely unknown how and to what extent cellular factors alter mechanical properties of frameshift elements and thereby impact virulence. This prompted us to comprehensively dissect the interplay between the SARS-CoV-2 frameshift element and the host proteome. We reveal that the short isoform of the zinc-finger antiviral protein (ZAP-S) is a direct regulator of PRF in SARS-CoV-2 infected cells. ZAP-S overexpression strongly impairs frameshifting and inhibits viral replication. Using in vitro ensemble and single-molecule techniques, we further demonstrate that ZAP-S directly interacts with the SARS-CoV-2 RNA and interferes with the folding of the frameshift RNA element. Together, these data identify ZAP-S as a host-encoded inhibitor of SARS-CoV-2 frameshifting and expand our understanding of RNA-based gene regulation.

Chromatin-associated protein interactions drive megadomain formation in NUT midline carcinoma

Project description:To investigate the mechanism that drives dramatic mistargeting of active chromatin in NUT-midline carcinoma, we have identified protein interactions unique to the BRD4-NUT fusion oncoprotein compared to wild type BRD4. Using crosslinking, affinity purification, and mass spectrometry, we identify the p300 acetyltransferase as ectopically associated with BRD4 through the NUT fusion in both NMC and non-NMC cell types. We also identify ZNF532 among a number of candidates uniquely associated with BRD4-NUT in NMC patient cells but not present in 293T cells. p300 and ZNF532 are both implicated in feed-forward regulatory loops leading to propagation of the oncogenic regulatory complex in BRD4-NUT patient cells. Extending our biochemical findings, we independently identified a novel ZNF532-NUT translocation fusion in a newly diagnosed NMC patient. ChIP-seq of key players: NUT, ZNF532, BRD4, p300, and anti-H3K27ac, reveals the formation of ZNF532-NUT-associated hyperacetylated megadomains, distinctly localized, but otherwise analogous to those found in BRD4-NUT patient cells. Our results support a model in which NMC is caused by a cascade of misregulation that is initiated by ectopic protein-protein interactions on chromatin between NUT and several distinct, but interacting, components of BRD4 regulatory complexes.

Stage- and cell type-specific requirements of ikzf1 during haematopoietic differentiation in zebrafish

Project description:The zinc finger transcription factor Ikaros1 (Ikzf1) is required for lymphoid development in mammals. It is characterized by the presence of four zinc fingers in its DNA binding domain and two zinc fingers in the C-terminal protein interaction module. Here, we describe the phenotypes of zebrafish homozygous for two distinct mutant ikzf1 alleles. The IT325 variant lacks the C-terminal two zinc fingers, whereas the fr105 variant retains only the first zinc finger of the DNA binding domain. Our results indicate that an intact ikzf1 gene is required for larval T cell development, whereas low levels of adult lymphoid development recover in the mutants. By contrast, the mutants exhibit a signature of increased myelopoiesis at larval and adult stages. Of note, both mutants stimulate erythroid differentiation in larvae, indicating that the C-terminal zinc fingers negatively regulate the extent of red blood cell production. An unexpected differential effect of the two mutants on adult erythropoiesis suggests a direct requirement of an intact DNA binding domain for entry of progenitors into the red blood cell lineage. Collectively, our results reinforce the biological differences between larval and adult haematopoiesis, indicate a stage-specific function of ikzf1 in regulating the hierarchical bifurcations of differentiation, and assign distinct functions to the DNA binding domain and the C-terminal zinc fingers.

Germline Variant in Ctcf Links Mental Retardation to Wilms Tumor Predisposition

Project description:SNP arrays was combined with next generation sequencing (NGS) to identify an LOH in 16q together with an unreported CTCF missense variant in its zinc finger domain. CTCF is within 16q LOH. We found that germline heterozygous variant I446K became homozygous in the tumor due to a loss of heterozygosity rearrangement affecting the whole q arm on chromosome 16. Based on CTCF role in regulating the epigenetic architechture of the genome, our findings reveal CTCF variant I446K as a link between MRD21 and Wilms tumor predisposition.

Truncated PARP1 promotes RNA Polymerase III during apoptosis

Project description:The N-terminal three zinc finger motifs of PARP1 are evolutionarily conserved in multicellular organism。However, during apoptosis, human PARP1 is mainly cleaved by caspase 3 at D214. As a result, the truncated PARP1 loses two N-terminal zinc finger motifs and only contains the third zinc finger motif, the BRCT domain, the WGR domain and the C-terminal catalytic domain. Interestingly, when we explored the domain architecture of PARP1 in other organisms, we found that similar to human tPARP1, PARP1 orthologs in several lower organisms do not have the N-terminal two zinc fingers or even they lack the third zinc finger motif. It indicates that even without the first two zinc finger motifs, tPARP1 may still catalyze ADP-ribosylation and play an important role in certain biological processes. To reveal the biological function of tPARP1, we performed tandem affinity purification and searched for the possible substrates.

Multiparameter functional diversity of human C2H2 zinc finger proteins [RNA-Seq]

Project description:C2H2 zinc finger proteins represent the largest and most enigmatic class of human transcription factors. Their C2H2 arrays are highly variable, indicating that most will have unique DNA binding motifs. However, most of the binding motifs have not been directly determined. We have determined the binding sites and motifs of 119 C2H2 zinc finger proteins and the expression pattern of 80 cell lines overexpressing C2H2 zinc finger proteins in order to study the role of C2H2 zinc finger proteins in gene regulation. We expressed GFP-tagged C2H2-ZF proteins in stable transgenic HEK293 cells. Total RNA was isolated using Trizol and sequencing libraries were constructed using TruSeq Stranded Total RNA Library Prep Kit with Ribo-Zero Gold or TruSeq RNA Library Preparation Kit v2.
