Wnt activator FOXB2 drives the neuroendocrine differentiation of prostate cancer

ABSTRACT: The Wnt signaling pathway is playing a crucial role during development and adult tissue homeostasis. However, the tissue and cell type-specific regulation of Wnt pathway activity remains incompletely understood. Here we identify FOXB2, an uncharacterized forkhead box family transcription factor, as a potent activator of Wnt signaling in normal and cancer cells. Proximity-dependent biotinylation assay (BioID) coupled with mass spectrometry identified transcriptional co-regulators required for FOXB2-dependent Wnt activation.

The Wnt signaling pathway is of paramount importance for development and disease. However, the tissue-specific regulation of Wnt pathway activity remains incompletely understood. Here we identify FOXB2, an uncharacterized forkhead box family transcription factor, as a potent activator of Wnt signaling in normal and cancer cells. Mechanistically, FOXB2 induces multiple Wnt ligands, including WNT7B, which increases TCF/LEF-dependent transcription without activating Wnt coreceptor LRP6 or β-catenin ...[more]

The oncogene FOXQ1 is a selective activator of Wnt/β-catenin signalling

Project description:The forkhead box transcription factor FOXQ1 is aberrantly induced in various cancers, and contributes to tumour growth and metastasis. It has been suggested that the oncogenic potential of FOXQ1 may be explained by its activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway.However, the mode of action of FOXQ1 in the Wnt pathway remains to be resolved. Here we report that FOXQ1 is bimodal transcriptional activator of Wnt target gene expression in normal and cancer cells. Using co-immunoprecipitation, proximity proteomics, and reporter assays, we show that FOXQ1 engages the Wnt transcriptional complex to promote gene expressionvia TCF/LEF transcription factors.

FOX transcription factors are common regulators of Wnt/β-catenin signaling

Project description:The Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is a critical regulator of development and stem cell maintenance. Mounting evidence suggests that the context-specific outcome of Wnt signaling is determined by the collaborative action of multiple transcription factors, including members of the highly conserved forkhead box (FOX) protein family. The contribution of FOX transcription factors to Wnt signaling has not been investigated in a systemic manner. Here, by combining β-catenin reporter assays with Wnt pathway-focused qPCR arrays and proximity proteomics of selected FOX family members, we determine that most FOX proteins are involved in the regulation of Wnt pathway activity and the expression of Wnt ligands and target genes. We conclude that FOX proteins are common regulators of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway that may control the outcome of Wnt signaling in a tissue-specific manner.

p53 is a suppressor of the carcinoma-associated transcription factor FOXQ1

Project description:FOXQ1 transcription factors is highly induced in several types of carcinomas where it promotes tumour growth and metastasis, however, the molecular mechanisms leading to FOXQ1 deregulation in cancer are incompletely understood. Here, we used a CRISPR/Cas9-based genomic locus proteomics (GLoPro) to discover transcriptional regulators of FOXQ1 and identified the tumour suppressor p53 as a transcriptional repressor of FOXQ1 expression. ChIP-qPCR as well as complementary gain and loss-of-function assays in model cell lines indicated that p53 has multiple binding sites close to the transcription start site of the FOXQ1 promoter, and that it suppresses FOXQ1 expression in various cell types. Consistently, pharmacological activation of p53 using nutlin-3 or doxorubicin reduced FOXQ1 mRNA and protein levels in colorectal cancer cell lines harboring wild type p53. In conclusion, these results suggest that mutational loss-of-function of p53, a hallmark feature of many types of cancer, de-represses FOXQ1, which accelerates tumour progression.

Endogenous pull-downs of human proteins ATP6V1A and AHNAK to validate interactions with influenza A virus proteins M2 and NEP by targeted mass spectrometry in virus-infected cells

Project description:Influenza A Virus (IAV) is a recurring respiratory virus with antiviral therapies of limited use. Understanding host proteins essential for IAV infection can identify targets for alternative host-directed therapies (HDTs). Using affinity purification-mass spectrometry (AP-MS) and global phosphoproteomic and protein abundance analyses with three IAV strains (pH1N1, H3N2, H5N1) in three human cell types (A549, NHBE, THP-1), we mapped 332 IAV-human protein-protein interactions (PPIs) and identified 13 IAV-modulated kinases. Whole exome sequencing of patients who experienced severe influenza revealed several genes, including the structural scaffold protein AHNAK, with predicted loss-of-function variants that were also identified in our proteomic analyses. Of our identified host factors, 54 significantly altered IAV infection upon siRNA knockdown, and two factors, COPB1 and AHNAK, were also essential for productive infection by SARS-CoV-2. Finally, 16 compounds targeting our identified host factors suppressed IAV replication, with two targeting CDK2 and FLT3 showing pan-antiviral activity across influenza and coronavirus families. This study provides a comprehensive network model of IAV infection in human cells, identifying functional host targets for pan-viral HDT. This project includes endogenous IP data from A549 cells and NHBE cells infected with H5N1 IAV validating IAV-host PPIs M2-ATP6V1A and NEP-AHNAK, respectively. M2-ATP6V1A and NEP-AHNAK PPIs were first identified in AP-MS data that is submitted under its own dataset identifier (PXD036077).

Multiple regulatory intrinsically disordered motifs control FOXO4 transcription factor binding and function

Project description:Transcription factors harbour defined intrinsically disordered regulatory regions, which raises the question of how they mediate binding to structured co-regulators and how this regulates activity. Here, we present a detailed molecular regulatory mechanism of Forkhead box O4 (FOXO4) by the structured transcriptional co-regulator β-catenin. We find that the largely disordered FOXO4 C-terminal region, which contains its transactivation domain binds β-catenin through two defined interaction sites, and this is regulated by combined PKB/AKT- and CK1-mediated phosphorylation. Binding of β-catenin competes with the auto-inhibitory interaction of the FOXO4 disordered region with its DNA-binding forkhead domain, and thereby enhances FOXO4 transcriptional activity. Furthermore, we show that binding of the β-catenin inhibitor protein ICAT is compatible with FOXO4 binding to β-catenin, suggesting that ICAT acts as a molecular switch between anti-proliferative FOXO and pro-proliferative Wnt/TCF/LEF signalling. Together these data illustrate how the interplay of intrinsically disordered regions, post-translational modifications and co-factor binding contribute to transcription factor function. Highlights • The interaction network between FOXO4 and β-catenin was deciphered • FOXO4 auto-inhibition interferes with DNA binding and is counter-acted by β-catenin • FOXO4 exists in multiple conformations regulated by phosphorylation and co-factors • ICAT switches between FOXO4 and TCF/LEF transcription factors

Wnt activator FOXB2 drives the neuroendocrine differentiation of prostate cancer.

Project description:The Wnt signaling pathway is of paramount importance for development and disease. However, the tissue-specific regulation of Wnt pathway activity remains incompletely understood. Here we identify FOXB2, an uncharacterized forkhead box family transcription factor, as a potent activator of Wnt signaling in normal and cancer cells. Mechanistically, FOXB2 induces multiple Wnt ligands, including WNT7B, which increases TCF/LEF-dependent transcription without activating Wnt coreceptor LRP6 or β-catenin. Proximity ligation and functional complementation assays identified several transcription regulators, including YY1, JUN, and DDX5, as cofactors required for FOXB2-dependent pathway activation. Although FOXB2 expression is limited in adults, it is induced in select cancers, particularly advanced prostate cancer. RNA-seq data analysis suggests that FOXB2/WNT7B expression in prostate cancer is associated with a transcriptional program that favors neuronal differentiation and decreases recurrence-free survival. Consistently, FOXB2 controls Wnt signaling and neuroendocrine differentiation of prostate cancer cell lines. Our results suggest that FOXB2 is a tissue-specific Wnt activator that promotes the malignant transformation of prostate cancer.

USP7 is a tumor-specific WNT activator for APC-mutated colorectal cancer by mediating B-catenin deu

Project description:The tumor suppressor gene adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is mutated in most colorectal cancers (CRC) resulting in constitutive Wnt activation. To understand the Wnt-activating mechanism of APC mutation, we applied CRISPR/Cas9 technology to engineer various APC-truncated isogenic lines. We find that the β-catenin inhibitory domain (CID) in APC represents the threshold for pathological levels of Wnt activation and tumor transformation. Mechanistically, CID-deleted APC truncation promotes β-catenin deubiquitination through reverse binding of β-TrCP and USP7 to the destruction complex. USP7 depletion in APC-mutated CRC inhibits Wnt activation by restoring β-catenin ubiquitination, drives differentiation and suppresses xenograft tumor growth. Finally, the Wnt-activating role of USP7 is specific to APC mutations, thus can be used as tumor-specific therapeutic target for most CRCs.

The kinase TNIK is an essential activator of Wnt target genes

Project description:Wnt signalling maintains the undifferentiated state of intestinal crypt/progenitor cells through the TCF4/Ã-catenin activating transcriptional complex. In colorectal cancer, activating mutations in Wnt pathway components lead to inappropriate activation of the TCF4/Ã-catenin transcriptional program and tumourigenesis in the gut epithelium. The mechanisms by which TCF4/Ã-catenin activate key target genes are not well understood. Using a proteomics approach, we identified Tnik, a member of the Germinal centre kinase family, as a Tcf4 interactor in the proliferative crypts of mouse small intestine. Tnik is recruited to promoters of Wnt target genes in mouse crypts and in Ls174T colorectal cancer cells in a Ã-catenin dependent manner. Depletion of TNIK and expression of TNIK kinase mutants abrogated TCF-LEF transcription, highlighting the essential role of the kinase activity in Wnt target gene activation. siRNA depletion of TNIK followed by expression array analysis demonstrated that TNIK is an essential and exclusive activator of Wnt induced transcriptional program. As an essential component in the TCF4/Ã-catenin activator complex, the kinase TNIK may present an attractive candidate for drug targeting in colorectal cancer. HEK293T cells: Wnt3A vs control medium (CM) induction for 4, 7 and 9 hours; si-TNIK vs si-control after Wnt3A induction at 4 and 7 hours (2 biological replicates for 7 hour time point); dyeswap for each experiment (i.e. 12 arrays in total).

A quality control factor for chromatin complexes is synthetic lethal in SMARCB1-mutant cancers

Project description:While oncogenes can potentially be inhibited with small molecules, the loss of tumor suppressors is more common and is problematic because the tumor suppressor proteins are no longer present to be targeted. Notable examples include SMARCB1-mutant cancers, which are highly lethal malignancies driven by the inactivation of a subunit of SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes. To generate mechanistic insight into the consequences of SMARCB1 mutation and to identify vulnerabilities, we contributed 14 SMARCB1-mutant cell lines to a near genome-wide CRISPR screen as part of the Cancer Dependency Map Project1-3. Here, we report that the little-studied gene DDB1-CUL4 Associated Factor 5 (DCAF5) is required for the survival of SMARCB1-mutant cancers. We show that DCAF5 serves a quality control function for SWI/SNF complexes and promotes degradation of incompletely assembled SWI/SNF complexes in the absence of SMARCB1. Upon depletion of DCAF5, SMARCB1-deficient SWI/SNF complexes re-accumulate, bind to target loci, and restore SWI/SNF-mediated gene expression to levels sufficient to reverse the cancer state, including in vivo. Consequently, cancer results not from the loss of SMARCB1 function per se but rather from DCAF5-mediated degradation of SWI/SNF complexes. These data indicate that therapeutic targeting of ubiquitin-mediated quality control factors may effectively reverse the malignant state of some cancers driven by disruption of tumor suppressor complexes.
