Transcriptional and epigenetic rewiring by the NUP98::KDM5A fusion oncoprotein directly activates CDK12 (RNA-Seq)

ABSTRACT: Nucleoporin 98 (NUP98) fusion oncoproteins are strong drivers of pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with poor prognosis. Here we show that NUP98 fusion-expressing AML harbors an epigenetic signature that is characterized by increased accessibility of hematopoietic stem cell genes and enrichment of activating histone marks. We employ an AML model for ligand-induced degradation of the NUP98::KDM5A fusion oncoprotein to identify epigenetic programs and transcriptional targets that are directly regulated by NUP98::KDM5A through CUT&Tag and nascent RNA-seq. Orthogonal genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screening identifies 12 direct NUP98::KDM5A target genes, which are essential for AML cell growth. Among these, we validate cyclin-dependent kinase 12 (CDK12) as a druggable vulnerability in NUP98::KDM5A-expressing AML. In line with its role in the transcription of DNA damage repair genes, small-molecule-mediated CDK12 inactivation causes increased DNA damage, leading to AML cell death. Altogether, we show that NUP98::KDM5A directly regulates a core set of essential target genes and reveal CDK12 as an actionable vulnerability in AML with oncogenic NUP98 fusions.

The Pediatric Leukemia Oncoprotein NUP98-KDM5A Induces Genomic Instability That May Facilitate Malignant Transformation

Project description:Pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is a rare and heterogeneous disease characterized by a high prevalence of gene fusions as driver mutations. Despite the improvement of survival in the last years, about 50% of patients still experience a relapse. It is not possible to improve prognosis only with further intensification of chemotherapy, as come with a severe cost to the health of patients, often resulting in treatment-related death or long-term sequels. To design more effective and less toxic therapies we need a better understanding of pediatric AML biology. The NUP98-KDM5A chimeric protein is exclusively found in a particular subgroup of young pediatric AML patients with complex karyotypes and poor prognosis. In this study, we investigated the impact of NUP98-KDM5A expression on cellular processes in human Pluripotent Stem Cell models and the CHRF-288-11 cell line. We found that NUP98-KDM5A generates genomic instability through two complementary mechanisms that involve accumulation of DNA damage and direct interference of RAE1 activity during mitosis. Overall, our data support that NUP98-KDM5A promotes genomic instability and likely contributes to malignant transformation.

Mechanistic insights into chromatin targeting by leukemic NUP98-PHF23 fusion

Project description:The dysregulation of plant homeodomain (PHD) fingers has been implicated in several human diseases, including cancer. In a subset of aggressive acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chromosomal translocations that involve nucleoporin 98 (NUP98), a component of the nuclear pore complex, and a PHD finger-containing protein, such as KDM5A/JARID1A, PHF23 and BPTF, generate potent oncoproteins (namely NUP98-KDM5A, NUP98-PHF23 and NUP98-BPTF; or together termed as NUP98-PHD fusions) that are able to arrest hematopoietic differentiation and induce acute myeloid leukemia in murine models. In these processes, a PHD finger that specifically recognizes H3K4me3/2 marks was essential for leukemogenesis. Mutations in PHD fingers that abrogated H3K4me3 binding also abolished leukemic transformation. An overlap of NUP98-KDM5A oncoprotein binding sites and H3K4me3-positive loci at the Hoxa/b gene clusters and Meis1 in ChIP-seq together with NMR analysis of the H3K4me3-binding sites of the PHD fingers from PHF23, KDM5A and BPTF suggests a common PHD finger-dependent mechanism that promotes leukemogenesis by this type of NUP98-PHD finger fusions. Disulfiram (DS), a small molecule compound that directly targets the PHD finger, shows anti-proliferation effects in AML cells expressing NUP98-PHD through the conserved inhibitory mechanism. Our findings highlight the direct correlation between the abilities of NUP98-PHD finger fusion chimeras to associate with H3K4me3-enriched chromatin and leukemic transformation.

CDK6 is an essential direct transcriptional target of NUP98-fusion-protein-driven acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:Fusion proteins involving Nucleoporin 98 (NUP98) are recurrently found in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) with poor prognosis. Lack of mechanistic insight into NUP98-fusion-dependent oncogenic transformation has precluded the identification of efficient targeting strategies. We reasoned that shared transcriptional programs of direct NUP98-fusion-protein-mediated gene control converge on actionable targets. To study the transcriptional regulation mediated by NUP98 fusion proteins we developed mouse models for regulatable expression of NUP98/NSD1, NUP98/JARID1A and NUP98/DDX10. Integration of transcriptional changes after oncogene shutdown in vivo with ChIP-seq data identified a common core of direct NUP98-fusion target genes in AML. Among the direct targets of all NUP98-fusions, the CDK6 (cyclin-dependent kinase 6) gene was highly expressed in mouse and human AML samples. CDK6 loss severely attenuated NUP98-fusion-driven leukemogenesis, and NUP98-fusion AML was hypersensitive to pharmacologic CDK6 inhibition in vitro and in vivo. These findings identify CDK6 as a conserved, critical direct target of NUP98-fusion proteins, proposing approved CDK4/CDK6 inhibitors as a rationale treatment option for AML patients with NUP98-fusions.

Global mouse gene expression data from NUP98-NSD1/FLT3-ITD AML samples and Normal Wild Type whole bone marrow and Normal Wild Type lineage negative bone marrow samples assessed by Bulk RNA-Seq.

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous hematologic malignancy driven largely by gene mutations and epigenetic modifications. The Nucleoporin 98kDa (NUP98) gene is a component of the nuclear pore complex that also plays a role as an intranuclear transcription scaffold. Fusion genes involving NUP98 have been recognized in a wide array of hematologic malignancy, most commonly AML4. Among over 30 partner genes known to be fused to NUP98 in human leukemia, NSD1 (for Nuclear receptor-binding SET Domain protein 1) (NSD1) is the most common. Patients with NUP98::NSD1 gene fusions have a poor prognosis, and the leukemic blasts frequently have an internal tandem duplication (ITD) of the FMS-related tyrosine kinase 3 gene (FLT3) gene accompanying the NUP98::NSD1 fusion. Previous reports have utilized BM transduction with retroviral vectors followed by transplantation into recipient mice to model AML driven by a NUP98::NSD1 fusion. Given that genetically engineered mice offer certain advantages over retroviral transduction models, such as consistent transgene expression and integration effects, lack of ionizing radiation, and transferability between investigators, we generated NUP98::Nsd1 transgenic mice.

KDM5A suppresses PML-RARα target gene expression and APL differentiation through repressing H3K4me2

Project description:Epigenetic abnormalities are frequently involved in the initiation and progression of cancers including acute myeloid leukemia (AML). A subtype of AML, Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), is mainly driven by a specific oncogenic fusion event of PML-RARα. PML-RARα was reported as a transcription repressor through the interaction with NCoR/HDAC complexes leading to the mis-suppression of its target genes and differentiation blockage. While previous studies were mainly focused on the connection of histone acetylation, it is still largely unknown whether alternative epigenetics mechanisms are involved in APL progression. KDM5A is a demethylase of histone H3 lysine 4 di- and tri- methylations (H3K4me2/3) and a transcription corepressor. Here, we found that the loss of KDM5A led to APL NB4 cell differentiation and retarded growth. Mechanistically, through epigenomics and transcriptomics analyses, we detected KDM5A binding in 1,889 genes, with the majority of the binding events at promoter regions. KDM5A suppressed the expression of 621 genes, including 42 PML-RARα target genes primarily by controlling the H3K4me2 in the promoters and 5’ end intragenic regions. In addition, a recently reported pan-KDM5 inhibitor, CPI-455 on its own could phenocopy the differentiation effects as KDM5A loss in NB4 cells. CPI-455 treatment or KDM5A knockout could greatly sensitize NB4 cells to ATRA induced differentiation. Our findings indicated that KDM5A contributed to the differentiation blockage in the APL cell line NB4, and inhibition of KDM5A could greatly potentiate NB4 differentiation.
