DUX4-r exerts a neomorphic activity that depens on GTF2I in acute lymphoblastic leukemia

ABSTRACT: Translocations producing rearranged versions of the transcription factor DUX4 (DUX4-r) are one of the most frequent causes of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). DUX4-r retains the DNA binding domain of wt DUX4, but is truncated on the C-terminal transcription activation domain. The precise mechanism through which DUX4-r causes leukemia is unknown and no targeted therapy is currently available. We found that the rearrangement leads to both a loss and a gain of function in DUX4-r. Loss of CBP/EP300 transcriptional co-activators interaction and inability to bind and activate repressed chromatin. Gain of interaction with the transcription factor GTF2I, which redirects DUX4-r toward leukemogenic targets. Importantly, this neomorphic activity exposes an Achilles' heel whereby DUX4-r positive leukemia cells are exquisitely sensitive to GTF2I targeting, which inhibits DUX4-r leukemogenic activity. Our work elucidates the molecular mechanism through which DUX4-r causes leukemia and suggest a possible therapeutic avenue tailored to this B-ALL subtype.

DUX4 interactors by LC-MSMS

Project description:The aim of this study is to define the molecular mechanisms underlying DUX4-associated toxicity in the context of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). DUX4 is a transcription factor, which induces cell death by activating the transcription of its targets. No molecule able to directly control DUX4 activity is currently known. By using a tandem affinity purification protocol combined to mass spectrometry analysis, we identified Matrin 3 (MATR3), as the first cellular factor able to directly block DUX4 toxic activity. We found that MATR3 binds to the DNA binding domain of DUX4 blocking the activation of its genomic targets.

Control of developmentally primed erythroid genes by combinatorial corepressor actions

Project description:How transcription factors (TFs) cooperate within large protein complexes to allow rapid modulation of gene expression during development is still largely unknown. Here we show that the key haematopoietic LIM-domain-binding protein-1 (LDB1) TF complex contains several activator and repressor components that together maintain an erythroid-specific gene expression programme primed for rapid activation until differentiation is induced. A combination of proteomics, functional genomics and in vivo studies presented here identifies known and novel co-repressors, most notably the ETO2 and IRF2BP2 proteins, involved in maintaining this primed state. The ETO2â??IRF2BP2 axis, interacting with the NCOR1/SMRT co-repressor complex, suppresses the expression of the vast majority of archetypical erythroid genes and pathways until its decommissioning at the onset of terminal erythroid differentiation. Our experiments demonstrate that multimeric regulatory complexes feature a dynamic interplay between activating and repressing components that determines lineage-specific gene expression and cellular differentiation. ChIP-Sequencing profiles of the IRF2BP2, GFI1B and LSD1 proteins were generated using mouse erythroleukemia (MEL) cells. RNA-seq experiments of Irf2bp2-WT, Irf2bp2-KD, Eto2-WT, Eto2-KD, Gfi1b-WT, Gfi1b-KD, Lsd1-WT, Lsd1-KD, MEL-non-induced, and MEL-induced stages were performed using standard RNA-seq protocol. Illumina HiSeq 2000 (standard TruSeq RNA sequencing protocol) was used for the sequencing.

Protein Interactions of 7 MLL-fusion Proteins

Project description:MLL-fusions represent a large group of leukemia drivers, whose diversity originates from the vast molecular heterogeneity of C-terminal fusion partners of MLL protein. While studies of selected MLL-fusions have revealed critical molecular pathways, unifying mechanisms across all MLL-fusions remain poorly understood. We present the first comprehensive survey of protein-protein interactions of seven distantly related MLL-fusion proteins: MLL-AF1p, MLL-AF4, MLL-AF9, MLL-CBP, MLL-EEN, MLL-ENL and MLL-GAS7.

MDC1 interacts with TOPBP1 to maintain chromosomal stability during mitosis

Project description:MDC1 is a large, modular phospho-protein scaffold that mediates recruitment of signaling and repair complexes to sites of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). MDC1 is anchored to damaged chromatin through interaction of its C-terminal BRCT-repeat domain with phosphorylated H2AX (γH2AX), where it recruits downstream factors via direct phosphorylation-dependent protein-protein interactions. Here, using unbiased proteomic analyses we identify a highly conserved protein interaction surface near the MDC1 N-terminus for the DNA damage response protein TOPBP1. We show that TOPBP1 directly binds to two residues in MDC1 that are phosphorylated by CK2. Interestingly, we find that TOPBP1 recruitment to DSBs depends on direct interaction with MDC1 only during mitosis. Furthermore, we demonstrate that disrupting MDC1-TOPBP1 binding causes hypersensitivity to ionizing radiation in mitosis, as well as increased micronuclei and chromosomal instability. Thus, our results highlight an important and hitherto unnoticed function for MDC1 and TOPBP1 in maintaining genome stability during cell division.

Chd1 regulates repair of promoter-proximal DNA breaks to sustain hypertranscription in embryonic stem cells

Project description:Stem and progenitor cells undergo a global elevation of nascent transcription, or hypertranscription, during key developmental transitions involving rapid cell proliferation. The chromatin remodeler Chd1 binds to RNA Pol I and II genes and is required for hypertranscription in embryonic stem (ES) cells in vitro and the early post-implantation epiblast in vivo. Biochemically, Chd1 has been shown to facilitate transcription at least in part by removing nucleosomal barriers to elongation, but its mechanism of action in stem cells remains poorly understood. Here we report a novel role for Chd1 in the repair of promoter-proximal endogenous double-stranded DNA breaks (DSBs) in ES cells. An unbiased proteomics approach revealed that Chd1 interacts with several DNA repair factors including ATM, Parp1, Kap1 and Topoisomerase 2. We show that wild-type ES cells display high levels of phosphorylated H2AX and Kap1 at chromatin, notably at rDNA in the nucleolus, in a Chd1-dependent manner. Loss of Chd1 leads to an extensive accumulation of DSBs at Chd1 target Pol II genes and rDNA. Genes prone to DNA breaks in Chd1-null ES cells tend to be longer genes with GC-rich promoters, a more labile nucleosomal structure and roles in chromatin organization, transcription and signaling. These results reveal a vulnerability of hypertranscribing stem cells to endogenous DNA breaks, with important implications for developmental and cancer biology.

Paf1C plays novel subunit-specific roles in alternative cleavage and polyadenylation

Project description:The PAF complex (Paf1C) has been shown to regulate chromatin modifications, gene transcription, and PolII elongation. Here, we provide the first genome-wide analysis of chromatin occupancy by the entire PAF complex in mammalian cells. We show that Paf1C is recruited not only to promoters and gene bodies, but also to regions downstream of cleavage/polyadenylation (pA) sites at 3â ends, a profile that sharply contrasted with the yeast complex. Remarkably, our studies identified novel, subunit-specific links between Paf1C and regulation of alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) and upstream antisense transcription. Moreover, we found that depletion of Paf1C subunits also resulted in the accumulation of RNA polymerase II (PolII) over gene bodies, which coincided with APA. Depletion of specific Paf1C subunits leads to global loss of histone H2B ubiquitylation, but surprisingly, there is little impact of Paf1C depletion on other histone modifications, including the tri-methylation of histone H3 on lysines 4 and 36 (H3K4me3 and H3K36me3), previously associated with this complex. Our results provide surprising differences with yeast, while unifying observations that link Paf1C with PolII elongation and RNA processing, and suggest that Paf1C could play a role in protecting transcripts from premature cleavage by preventing PolII accumulation at TSS-proximal pA sites.

A proteomics study identifying interactors of the FSHD2 gene product SMCHD1 reveals RUVBL1-dependent DUX4 repression.

Project description:Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes Hinge Domain Containing 1 (SMCHD1) is a chromatin repressor, which is mutated in >95% of Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD) type 2 cases. In FSHD2, SMCHD1 mutations ultimately result in the presence of the cleavage stage transcription factor DUX4 in muscle cells due to a failure in epigenetic repression of the D4Z4 macrosatellite repeat on chromosome 4q, which contains the DUX4 locus. While binding of SMCHD1 to D4Z4 and its necessity to maintain a repressive D4Z4 chromatin structure are well documented, it is unclear how SMCHD1 is recruited to D4Z4, and how it exerts its repressive properties on the chromatin. Here, we employ a quantitative proteomics approach to identify and characterize novel SMCHD1 interacting proteins, and assess their functionality in D4Z4 repression. We identify 47 robust SMCHD1 interactors, of which 19 are present in D4Z4 chromatin. We demonstrate that one of these SMCHD1 interacting proteins in D4Z4, RuvB-like 1 (RUVBL1) is indeed required for maintaining DUX4 silencing in FSHD myocytes. We also confirm the interaction of SMCHD1 with EZH inhibitory protein (EZHIP), which prevents global H3K27me3 deposition by the Polycomb repressive complex PRC2, providing novel insights into the potential function of SMCHD1 in the repression of DUX4 in the early stages of embryogenesis. The SMCHD1 interactome outlined herein can thus provide further direction into research on the potential function of SMCHD1 at genomic loci where SMCHD1 is known to act, such as D4Z4 repeats, the inactive X chromosome, autosomal gene clusters, imprinted loci and telomeres.

Compartmentalization of HP1 proteins in pluripotency acquisition and maintenance

Project description:Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) have a hyperdynamic chromatin structure characterized by fewer discrete foci of heterochromatin protein 1 family of proteins (HP1) compared to somatic cells. During reprogramming of somatic cells, depletion of HP1γ early, reduced, while depletion later, enhanced the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs); concomitant with a change from a centromeric to nucleoplasmic localization. To identify the interactome of HP1γ in different biochemical environment in ESCs, we compared protein complexes of HP1γ at 0.42M salt (Dignam et al, 1983), with micrococcal nuclease (MCN) digestion with 0.3M NaCl, and MCN with 0.5M NaCl. To understand the effectors of the change in localization, we isolated protein complexes containing HP1γ in ESCs and compared the profile to that in partially reprogrammed intermediates called pre-iPSCs. Given the differential distribution of the HP1 family in ESCs, we also compared the protein interactome of HP1γ in ESCs with that of HP1α and HP1β. In addition, we probed histone associations of HP1γ in ESCs further by querying the histone post-translational modifications that were detectable. The HP1 proteins themselves are decorated with multiple PTMs, several of which we have found to be novel. Taken together our results reveal the complex contribution of the HP1 proteins to pluripotency.
