Project description:C/EBPα is an essential transcription factor involved in regulating the expression or function of certain cell-cycle regulators. However, little is known about the role of methylation in regulating the antiproliferation activity of C/EBPα. Here, we report that knockdown of protein arginine methyltransferases 1 (PRMT1) leads to cellular growth arrest accompanied by a decrease in Cyclin D1 gene expression in breast cancer cells. Furthermore, we reveal that C/EBPα is methylated by PRMT1 at three arginine residues (R35, R156, and R165), which impairs the interaction of C/EBPα with HDAC3 and modulates the transcription activity of C/EBPα and Cyclin D1 gene expression. PRMT1 is upregulated in human breast cancer, and elevated PRMT1 is correlated with cancer malignancy. Most importantly, a specific inhibitor of PRMT1 significantly impedes the growth of cancer cells from triple-negative breast cancer patients. Our data demonstrate that high expression of PRMT1 promotes the expression of Cyclin D1 through methylation of C/EBPα to interfere with the repressive function of HDAC3, which leads to rapid growth of tumor cells during the pathogenesis of breast cancer. This evidence that PRMT1 mediates C/EBPα methylation sheds light on a novel therapeutic pathway for breast cancer.

Project description:PRMT1 is thought to be responsible for the majority of PRMT activity in Toxoplasma gondii, but its exact function is unknown. We generated T. gondii mutants lacking PRMT1 (∆prmt1) by deletion of the PRMT1 gene. ∆prmt1 parasites exhibit morphological defects during cell division and grow slowly, and this phenotype reverses in the complemented strain ∆prmt::PRMT1mRFP. PRMT1 localizes primarily in the cytoplasm with enrichment at the centrosome, and the strain lacking PRMT1 is unable to segregate progeny accurately. Unlike wild-type and complemented parasites, ∆prmt1 parasites have abnormal daughter buds, perturbed centrosome stoichiometry, and loss of synchronous replication. Whole genome expression profiling demonstrated differences in expression of cell cycle regulated genes in ∆prmt1 relative to the complemented ∆prmt1::PRMT1mRFP and parental wild-type strains, but these changes did not correlate with a specific block in cell cycle. Although PRMT1’s primary biological function was previously proposed to be methylation of histones, our genetic studies suggest that the most critical function of PRMT1 is within the centrosome as a regulator of daughter cell counting to assure the proper replication of the parasite. RNA samples were isolated in triplicates from RH-hxgprt parent strain (W), PRMT1 knockout (K) strain and PRMT1 knockout strain complemented with RFP-tagged PRMT1 protein (C). Parasites were grown for 32h at 37C. Samples were hybridized to the Toxoplasma gondii Affymetrix microarray (ToxoGeneChip: http://ancillary.toxodb.org/docs/Array-Tutorial.html). Hybridization data was preprocessed with Robust Multi-array Average (RMA) and normalized using per chip and per gene median polishing and analyzed using the software package GeneSpring GX (Agilent Technologies).

Project description:Transcriptional deregulation plays a major role in acute myeloid leukemia, identification of epigenetic modifying enzymes essential for the maintenance of oncogenic transcription programs holds the key to better understanding the biology and designing effective therapeutic strategies for the disease. Here we provide experimental evidence showing the functional involvement and therapeutic potentials of targeting PRMT1 with H4R3 methyltransferase activity in various MLL and non-MLL leukemias. PRMT1 is necessary but not sufficient for leukemic transformation, which requires co-recruitment of KDM4C with H3K9 demethylase activity by chimeric transcription factors to mediate epigenetic reprogramming. Inhibition of KDM4C/PRMT1 suppresses transcription and transformation ability of MLL fusions and MOZ-TIF2, revealing a novel and targetable epigenetic circuitry mediated by PRMT1 and KDM4C in acute leukemia.

Project description:PRMT1 is known as a regulator of immune function by directly interacting with interferon receptors, methylating STAT1, and promoting B cell and macrophage differentiation by methylating CDK4 or B cell antigen receptor However, the function of PRMT1 as a therapeutic target of cancer remains largely elusive, particularly for its role in cancer immunosurveillance. Here, we performed bulk RNA-seq for CT26, a mouse tumor cell line, after either knocking down of endogeneous Prmt1 or blocking PRMT1 by two specific inhibitors, namely MS023 and GSK3368715.

Project description:Through an shRNA screen we have identified Prmt1 as a genetic vulnerability of p53/Rb-null murine osteosarcoma cells. Depletion of Prmt1 in p53-deficient cells impairs tumor initiation and maintenance in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistic studies reveal that translation-associated pathways are enriched for Prmt1 downstream targets, implicating a role of Prmt1 in translation control. In particular, we have shown that loss of Prmt1 leads to a the decrease in arginine methylation of the translation initiation complex, thereby disrupting its assembly and inhibiting translation. We also observed that p53/Rb-null cells are sensitive to p53-induced translation stress. Analysis of the human tumor cell Achilles data set further reveals that Prmt1 and translation-associated pathways converge on the same functional networks. We propose that targeted therapy directed to inhibition of Prmt1 and its associated translation-related pathways represents a novel and promising therapeutic strategy for p53-deficient cancer cells that exhibit dependencies on translation stress response.

Project description:We explored the connection between C/EBPα (CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α) and Wnt signaling in gut homeostasis and carcinogenesis. C/EBPα was expressed in human and murine intestinal epithelia in the transit amplifying region of the crypts and was absent in intestinal stem cells and Paneth cells with activated Wnt signaling. In human colorectal cancer and murine APCMin/+ polyps, C/EBPα was absent from nuclear β-catenin–positive tumor cells. In chemically induced intestinal carcinogenesis, C/EBPα KO in murine gut epithelia increased tumor volume. C/EBPα deletion extended the S-phase cell zone in intestinal organoids and activated typical proliferation gene expression signatures, including that of Wnt target genes. Genetic activation of β-catenin in organoids attenuated C/EBPα expression. Comparing gene expression of wild type and C/EBPα KO organoids by RNA sequencing aimed to identify C/EBPα dependent alterations in gene expression.
