Demethylated HSATII DNA and aberrant HSATII RNA foci act as sponges for epigenetic factors in cancer

ABSTRACT: This study reveals that the millions of satellite II (HSATII) sequences in the human genome can bind and impact distribution of epigenetic regulators, and that this goes awry in cancer. In many cancers master epigenetic factors form two-types of cancer-specific nuclear bodies, caused by locus-specific deregulation of HSATII DNA and RNA, respectively. DNA demethylation at the 1q12 mega-satellite, common in cancer, causes PRC1 aggregation into prominent Cancer-Associated Polycomb (CAP) bodies. These loci remain silent, whereas HSATII loci in regions low in PRC1 become de-repressed, reflecting imbalanced distribution of UbH2A on these and other PcG-regulated loci. Large nuclear foci of HSATII RNA form and sequester copious MeCP2 into Cancer-Associated Satellite Transcript (CAST) bodies. Hence, HSATII DNA and RNA have an exceptional capacity to “sponge” epigenetic factors into abnormal nuclear bodies in cancer. Results support a new concept that demethylation of “junk” repeats can trigger further epigenetic compromise by compartmentalizing regulatory factors within nuclear structure.

Pericentromeric satellite repeat expansions through RNA-derived DNA intermediates in cancer

Project description:Aberrant transcription of the HSATII pericentromeric satellite repeat is present in a wide variety of epithelial cancers. We observed that HSATII expression is induced in colon cancer cells cultured as xenografts or under non-adherent conditions in vitro, but it is rapidly lost in standard 2D cultures. Unexpectedly, physiological induction of endogenous HSATII RNA, as well as introduction of synthetic HSATII transcripts, generate complementary DNA intermediates in the form of DNA:RNA hybrids. Single molecule sequencing of tumor xenografts shows that HSATII RNA-derived DNA (rdDNA) molecules are stably reincorporated within pericentromeric loci, leading to progressive expansion of these regions We analyzed the dynamics of HSATII RNA and DNA level changes using single molecule sequencing (Helicos/SeqLL) in SW620 colon cancer cells transitioned from 2D in vitro culture conditions to growth as mouse xenografts and vice versa.

The Central Role of EED in the Orchestration of Polycomb Group Complexes

Project description:Polycomb Repressive Complexes 1 and 2 (PRC1 and 2) play a critical role in the epigenetic regulation of transcription during cellular differentiation, stem cell pluripotency, and neoplastic progression1-3. Here we show that the Polycomb group protein EED, a core component of PRC2, physically interacts with and functions as part of the PRC1 complex. Components of PRC1 and PRC2 compete for EED binding. EED functions to recruit PRC1 to H3K27me3 loci and enhances PRC1 mediated H2A ubiquitin E3 ligase activity. Taken together, we uncover the integral role of EED as an epigenetic exchange factor coordinating the activities of PRC1 and 2.

Satellite repeat RNA expression in epithelial ovarian cancer is linked to a tumor immunosuppressive phenotype

Project description:Repeatome profiling across ovarian, pancreatic, and colorectal cell lines identifies distinct clustering that is independent of tissue of origin highlighting differences in repeat co-expression patterns. Deeper analysis of ovarian cancer cell lines demonstrated that HSATII satellite repeat expression was highly associated with epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) and anti-correlated with interferon (IFN) response genes indicative of a more aggressive phenotype.

DUX4-induced transcripts from pericentric human satellite II repeats form double-stranded RNA [stranded-RNAseq]

Project description:The DUX4 transcription factor is normally expressed in the cleavage stage embryo and regulates genes involved in zygotic genome activation. Mis-expression of DUX4 in skeletal muscle, however, is toxic and causes facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). We recently showed DUX4-induced toxicity is due, in part, to the accumulation of double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) with concomitant activation of the PKR viral response pathway. Here, using dsRNA immunoprecipitation coupled with next-generation sequencing, we determined that DUX4-induced dsRNAs originate from intergenic regions enriched for Alu and LINE-1 elements, endogenous retroviruses, and pericentric human satellite II (HSATII) repeats. DUX4-induced HSATII dsRNAs are formed via temporally controlled bidirectional expression with predominant transcription of one strand preceding the other. Whereas DUX4 activation of dsRNAs derived from intergenic regions such as HSATII contributes to toxicity in FSHD, in the early embryo these dsRNAs might facilitate heterochromatin formation, as has been proposed for cleavage stage expression of mouse major satellites.

Geminiviruses employ host DNA glycosylases to subvert DNA methylation-mediated defense

Project description:DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism that plays important roles in gene regulation and transposon silencing. Active DNA demethylation has evolved to counterbalance DNA methylation at many endogenous loci. Here, we report that active DNA demethylation also targets viral DNAs, tomato yellow leaf curl China virus (TYLCCNV) and its satellite tomato yellow leaf curl China betasatellite (TYLCCNB), to promote their virulence. We demonstrate that the βC1 protein, encoded by TYLCCNB, interacts with a ROS1-like DNA glycosylase in Nicotiana benthamiana and with the DEMETER (DME) DNA glycosylase in Arabidopsis thaliana. The interaction between βC1 and DME facilitates the DNA glycosylase activity to decrease viral DNA methylation and promote viral virulence. These findings reveal that active DNA demethylation can be regulated by a viral protein to subvert DNA methylation-mediated defense.

Overexpression of the cytokinesis regulator PRC1 activates the p53 pathway due to cytoplasmic microtubule-bundling resulting in senescence of A549 lung cancer cells

Project description:Protein regulator of cytokinesis 1 (PRC1) is a microtubule-bundling protein with essential roles in mitosis and cytokinesis. In this study we investigated the potential nuclear functions of PRC1 and the consequences of overexpression of PRC1 by using lung cancer cell lines stably expressing inducible expression constructs for PRC1. Ectopically expressed PRC1 resulted in proliferation defects, multi-nucleation and enlargement of cells which were directly linked to microtubule-bundling within the cytoplasm. Genome wide expression profiling by RNA sequencing revealed that the p53 pathway is activated upon overexpression of PRC1 resulting in cellular senescence. A mutant of PRC1 unable to enter into the nucleus induced the same gene sets as wildtype PRC1, suggesting that PRC1 has no nuclear-specific functions in lung cancer cells. The depletion of p53 switched the response to PRC1 overexpression or depletion from senescence to apoptosis. In addition, treatment with cisplatin, a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug, enhanced the proliferation defects due to deregulated PRC1, implicating PRC1 as a possible therapeutic target for cancer. Taken together, PRC1 needs to be tightly regulated to allow unperturbed proliferation of lung cancer cells.
