Project description:Transcription factors are among the most attractive therapeutic targets but are considered largely undruggable. Here we provide evidence that small molecule-mediated partitioning of the androgen receptor, an oncogenic transcription factor, into phase-separated condensates has therapeutic effect in prostate cancer. We show that the phase separation capacity of the androgen receptor is driven by aromatic residues and short unstable helices in its intrinsically disordered activation domain. Based on this knowledge, we developed tool compounds that covalently attach aromatic moieties to cysteines in the receptors’ activation domain. The compounds enhanced partitioning of the receptor into condensates, facilitated degradation of the receptor, inhibited androgen receptor-dependent transcriptional programs, and had antitumorigenic effect in mouse models of prostate cancer and castration resistant prostate cancer. These results establish a generalizable framework to target the phase-separation capacity of intrinsically disordered regions in oncogenic transcription factors and other disease-associated proteins with therapeutic intent.

Project description:Phase separation of biomolecules into condensates is a key mechanism in the spatiotemporal organization of biochemical processes in cells. We systematically engineered light-inducible transcription factor condensates with different material properties and analyzed their influence on transcription activation. When transcription factor condensates were transformed into solid-like gels, we observed a reduced activation of gene expression. We wanted to evaluate the impact that the condensate formation of the transcription factor RelA had on its endogenous promoters using expression data. To this aim, HEK-293T cells were transfected either with empty vector (1-3) or eGFP-RelA (4-6) or eGFP-RelA, Cry2olig-mCh-FUSN-NLS-NbGFP and Cry2olig-mCh-FUSN-NLS, along with an NF-κB-responsive SEAP reporter (7-9). In each of the three groups of transfected cells, 8 h after transfection, 3 samples were kept in the dark (D) and 3 under blue light illumination (BL, 5 μmol m-² s-1) for 24 h prior to RNA extraction. RNA-seq libraries from the 18 samples were sequenced by BGI on a DNBSEQ platform using paired-end chemistry with a read length of 100 base pairs each. Each strand was sequenced across two separate lanes (L03, L04), generating a total of 4 FASTQ files per sample.

Project description:Components of the transcription machinery can undergo liquid-liquid phase separation, but the functional importance of phase-separated condensates in transcriptional control is not well understood. Here we report that disease-causing mutations in several transcription factors (TFs) alter the phase separation capacity of those TFs. We first demonstrate that the Hoxd13 TF, and its intrinsically disordered N-terminus form phase-separated condensates. Expansions of a polyalanine repeat, which cause hereditary synpolydactyly in humans, facilitate phase separation of Hoxd13, and alter the transcriptional program of several cell types in a cell-specific manner in vivo. Disease-associated expansions of aminoacid repeats in intrinsically disordered regions of other TFs were similarly found to alter phase separation. These results suggest that aberrant phase separation of transcriptional regulators may underlie a spectrum of human pathologies. The paper is available at https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2020.04.018

Project description:MeCP2 (methyl CpG binding protein 2) is a key component of constitutive heterochromatin, which plays important roles in chromosome maintenance and transcriptional silencing. Mutations in MeCP2 cause Rett syndrome (RTT), a postnatal progressive neurodevelopmental disorder associated with severe mental disability and autism-like symptoms that manifests in girls during early childhood. Heterochromatin, long considered a dense and relatively static structure, is now understood to exhibit properties consistent with a liquid-like condensate. Here we report that MeCP2 is a dynamic component of heterochromatin condensates in cells, is stimulated by DNA to form liquid-like condensates, contains multiple domains that contribute to condensate formation, manifests physicochemical properties that selectively concentrate heterochromatin cofactors compared to components of transcriptionally active condensates, and when altered by RTT-causing mutations is disrupted in its ability to form condensates. We propose that MeCP2 enhances heterochromatin/euchromatin separation through its condensate partitioning properties and that condensate disruption may be a common consequence of RTT patient mutations.

Project description:Chromosome translocation is known to generate oncogenes such as SS18-SSX1, but the underlying mechanism remains unknown. Here we show that enhanced phase separation acquired by translocation mediates oncogenic transformation. SSX fusion dramatically enhances the phase separation property of SS18 protein through H2AK119ub. Super condensates generated by SS18-SSX recruit acetyltransferases CBP/P300 as wild type SS18, but exclude HDACs such that H3K27ac accumulates abnormally at loci from those normally occupied by SS18, resulting aberrant silencing and activation of target genes. Consistently, we show that inhibition of H3K27ac can attenuate the tumorigenicity of the fusion oncoprotein. These results provide the first case for phase separation as a transforming event to generate oncogene and super phase separation can be targeted for cancer therapy.
