Project description:<p>Infiltrating gliomas are devastating and incurable tumors. Amongst all gliomas, those harboring an isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 mutation (IDHmut), acquire a different tumor biology and clinical manifestation than those that are IDHWT. Understanding the unique metabolic profile reprogrammed by IDH1 mutation has the potential to identify new molecular targets for glioma therapy. Herein, we discovered monounsaturated (MUFA) to polyunsaturated (PUFA) lipid imbalances in organelles, generated by IDH mutation in cells and patient tissue, that were responsible for Golgi and ER dilation. We demonstrated a direct link between the IDH mutation and these organelle morphology via D-2HG-induced stearyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) overexpression, the rate limiting enzyme in MUFA biosynthesis. Inhibition of IDH mutation or SCD silencing restored ER and Golgi morphology, while D-2HG and oleic acid induced morphological defects in these organelles. Moreover, addition of oleic acid, which tilted the balance towards elevated levels of MUFA, produced IDH1mut-specific cellular apoptosis. Collectively, these results suggest that IDH1mut-induced SCD overexpression can rearrange the biodistribution of lipids in the organelles of glioma, providing a new insight on the link between lipids metabolism and organelle morphology in these cells, with potential and unique therapeutic implications.</p><p><br></p><p>Linked studies;</p><p><a href='https://www.ebi.ac.uk/metabolights/MTBLS1967' rel='noopener noreferrer' target='_blank'>MTBLS1967</a> FA_HILICZ</p><p><a href='https://www.ebi.ac.uk/metabolights/MTBLS1973' rel='noopener noreferrer' target='_blank'>MTBLS1973</a> LCMS(CSHNeg)</p>

Project description:Targeted therapies for MET exon 14-skipping (METΔex14)-driven lung cancers have generated some promising results but response rates remain below that seen for other kinase-driven cancers. One strategy for improving treatment outcomes is to employ rational combination therapies to enhance the suppression of tumour growth and delay or prevent the emergence of resistance. To this end, we profiled the transcriptomes of MET-addicted lung tumours and cell lines and identified the RAS-mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway as a critical effector required for METΔex14-dependent growth. Ectopic expression of MET in an isogenic cell line model showed that overexpression of the mutant MET receptor led to higher levels of MAPK phosphorylation and nuclear import, resulting in increased expression and phosphorylation of nuclear MAPK targets. In comparison, other known MET effectors were unaffected. Inhibition of this pathway by KRAS knockdown in MET-addicted cells in vitro led to decreased viability in only the METΔex14-mutant cells. Conversely, decoupling RAS-MAPK axis, but not other effector pathways, from MET activity via the introduction of constitutively active mutants conferred resistance to MET inhibitors in vitro. Our results suggest that aberrant hyperactivity of the MET receptor caused by the exon 14-skipping mutation does not uniformly upregulate all known downstream effectors, rather gaining a predilection for aberrantly activating and subsequently relying on the RAS-MAPK pathway. These findings provide a rationale for the co-targeting of the RAS-MAPK pathway alongside MET to prolong therapeutic response and circumvent resistance to improve patient survival.

Project description:Using hydrogen deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) and molecular dynamics we have identified mutation specific conformational changes, and provide a molecular framework for how they alter kinase activity.Many of the activating conformational changes mimicked previously described changes that occur upon membrane binding and allosteric inhibitor binding. We surveyed a diverse panel of PI3K inhibitors using HDX-MS and X-ray crystallography, and find that inhibitors that interact with the activation loop lead to allosteric conformational changes that partially mimic the R1021C mutation. Intriguingly, inhibitors that showed similar conformational changes to the activating mutant showed increased potency (~3 fold) for the mutant over wild type PI3K. Overall this work provides unique insight into the regulatory mechanisms that control PI3K kinase activity, and reveals a framework for the potential design of PI3K isoform and mutant selective inhibitors.

Project description:NAC transcription factor SUPPRESSOR OF GAMMA RESPONSE 1 (SOG1) functions as a master regulator in DNA damage response of Arabidopsis. However, the signaling pathway controlled by SOG1 remains elusive. To identify target genes of SOG1, we used wild-type plants harboring the transgene ProSOG1:SOG1-Myc, which expresses the SOG1-Myc fusion gene under the 2-kb SOG1 promoter. It was previously demonstrated that SOG1-Myc can complement the sog1-1 mutation (Yoshiyama et al., 2013). After treatment of plants with 15 µM zeocin for 2 hours, chromatin fragments bound to SOG1-Myc were immunoprecipitated with the anti-Myc antibody, and were subjected to next generation sequencing. We identified 778 SOG1-binding peak summits, which displayed peak values 16-fold higher than those in wild-type plants without the transgene. The genomic regions between 5-kb upstream and downstream of each peak summit included 1514 genes among which we found SMR5, SMR7 and CYCB1;1 that were previously identified as SOG1 target genes (Yi et al., 2014; Weimer et al., 2016). Among 1514 genes identified by ChIP-sequencing, 146 genes were overlapped with the SOG1-regulated genes extracted from the microarray data (GSE106154); therefore, we concluded that the 146 genes are SOG1 ditrect target genes.

Project description:Infiltrating gliomas are devastating and incurable tumors. Amongst all gliomas, those harboring a mutation in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 mutation (IDH1mut) acquire a different tumor biology and clinical manifestation than those that are IDH1WT. Understanding the unique metabolic profile reprogrammed by IDH1 mutation has the potential to identify new molecular targets for glioma therapy. Herein, we discovered increased monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) and their phospholipids in ER, generated by IDH1 mutation, that were responsible for Golgi and ER dilation. We demonstrated a direct link between the IDH1 mutation and these organelle morphology via D-2HG-induced stearyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) overexpression, the rate-limiting enzyme in MUFA biosynthesis. Inhibition of IDH1 mutation or SCD silencing restored ER and Golgi morphology, while D-2HG and oleic acid induced morphological defects in these organelles. Moreover, addition of oleic acid, which tilted the balance towards elevated levels of MUFA, produced IDH1mut-specific cellular apoptosis. Collectively, these results suggest that IDH1mut-induced SCD overexpression can rearrange the distribution of lipids in the organelles of glioma cells, providing a new insight on the link between lipids metabolism and organelle morphology in these cells, with potential and unique therapeutic implications.

Project description:There is an unmet need to classify cancer-promoting kinase mutations in a mechanistically cognizant way. The challenge is to understand how mutations stabilize different kinase configurations to alter function, and how this influences pathogenic potential of the kinase and its responses to therapeutic inhibitors. This goal is made more challenging by the complexity of the mutational landscape of diseases, and is further compounded by the conformational plasticity of each variant where multiple conformations coexist. We focus here on the human MEK1 kinase, a vital component of the RAS/MAPK pathway in which mutations cause cancers and developmental disorders called RASopathies. We sought to explore how these mutations alter the human MEK1 kinase at atomic resolution by utilizing enhanced sampling simulations and free energy calculations. We computationally mapped the different conformational stabilities of individual mutated systems by delineating the free energy landscapes, and showed how this relates directly to experimentally quantified developmental transformation potentials of the mutations. We conclude that mutations leverage variations in the hydrogen bonding network associated with the conformational plasticity to progressively stabilize the active-like conformational state of the kinase while destabilizing the inactive-like state. The mutations alter residue-level internal molecular correlations by differentially prioritizing different conformational states, delineating the various modes of MEK1 activation reminiscent of a gear-shifting mechanism. We define the molecular basis of conversion of this kinase from its inactive to its active state, connecting structure, dynamics, and function by delineating the energy landscape and conformational plasticity, thus augmenting our understanding of MEK1 regulation.

Project description:Germline mutations in BRAF and other components of the Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) pathway are associated with the congenital syndromes collectively known as RASopathies. Here, we report the association of Septo-Optic Dysplasia (SOD) including hypopituitarism and Cardio-Facio-Cutaneous (CFC) syndrome in patients harboring mutations in BRAF. Phosphoproteomic analyses demonstrate that these genetic variants are gain-of-function mutations leading to activation of the MAPK pathway. Activation of the MAPK pathway by conditional expression of the BrafV600E/+ allele, or the knock-in BrafQ241R/+ allele (corresponding to the most frequent human CFC-causing mutation, BRAFp.Q257R), leads to abnormal cell lineage determination and terminal differentiation of hormone-producing cells, causing hypopituitarism. Expression of the BrafV600E/+ allele in embryonic pituitary progenitors leads to an increased expression in cell cycle inhibitors, cell growth arrest and apoptosis but not tumour formation. Our findings show a critical role for BRAF in hypothalamo-pituitary-axis development both in mouse and human and implicate mutations found in RASopathies as a cause of endocrine deficiencies in humans

Project description:With the rapidly increasing availability of genomic data and ensuing identification of disease associated mutations, the determination of molecular mechanisms by which such mutations affect biochemical processes and phenotypes remains a major challenge. In this study we developed and applied a multilayered proteomic workflow to explore how genetic lesions modulate the modular proteome to alter functional phenotypes. Using this workflow we determined how expression of a panel of disease-associated mutations in the Dyrk2 protein kinase altered the composition, topology and activity of the multifunctional protein complex assembled around Dyrk2 and the phosphoproteomic state of the respective cells. We found that the selected cancer-related Dyrk2 mutations caused, to a differing extent, disassembly of the catalytic kinase core complex and caused disruption of interactions within the Dyrk2 core or with other cellular modules. This is exemplified by the nuclear pore associated Y-complex which we identified as new interactor of Dyrk2. We further found that the altered protein-protein interactions caused by the mutations are associated with topological changes and with changes in posttranslational modifications in the mutated kinase modules. Finally, we observed that the expression of each tested cancer-related mutation created a specific phosphoproteomic footprint including altered phosphorylation of known cancer-associated proteins, thus linking Dyrk2 mutations with cancer-related biochemical processes. Overall we developed an integrated, multilayered proteomic workflow to study how specific genomic mutations affect the modular proteome. Applying it to mutations in the Dyrk2 kinase we discover multiple mutation-specific, significant, pleiotropic and functionally relevant changes, highlighting the large plasticity of molecular responses to genomic lesions. The established workflow is generically applicable and will contribute to a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms that translate genomic alterations into (disease) phenotypes.
