GUK1 activation is a metabolic liability in oncogene-driven lung cancer

ABSTRACT: Little is known about metabolic vulnerabilities in oncogene-driven lung cancer. Here, we performed a phosphoproteomic screen in anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-rearranged (“ALK+”) patient-derived cell lines and identified guanylate kinase 1 (GUK1), a GDP-synthesizing enzyme, as a novel target of ALK signaling in lung cancer. We demonstrate that ALK binds to and phosphorylates GUK1 at tyrosine 74 (Y74), resulting in increased GDP biosynthesis. Spatially resolved mass spectrometry imaging of ALK+ patient tumor specimens shows enhanced phosphorylation of GUK1 that significantly correlates with guanine nucleotides in situ. Abrogation of GUK1 phosphorylation reduces intracellular GDP and GTP pools and decreases MAPK signaling through impaired Ras-GTP loading. A GUK1 variant that cannot be phosphorylated (Y74F) decreases tumor proliferation in vitro and in vivo. Beyond ALK, we determined that other oncogenic fusion proteins in lung cancer also regulate GUK1 phosphorylation. These studies may pave the way for the development of new therapeutic approaches by exploiting metabolic dependencies in oncogene-driven lung cancers.

Project description:Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphomas (ALCL) represent a subset of lymphomas in which the Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) gene is frequently fused to the NPM gene. We previously demonstrated that the constitutive phosphorylation of ALK chimeric proteins is sufficient to induce cellular transformation in vitro and in vivo, and that ALK activity is strictly required for the survival of ALK positive ALCL cells. To elucidate the signaling pathways required for ALK-mediated transformation and tumor maintenance, we analyzed the transcriptomes of multiple ALK positive ALCL cell lines abrogating their ALK-mediated signaling by inducible ALK RNA interference (RNAi) or with potent and cell permeable ALK inhibitors. Transcripts derived from the gene expression profiling (GEP) analysis uncovered a reproducible signature, which included a novel group of ALK-regulated genes. Functional RNAi screening on a set of these ALK transcriptional targets revealed that the transcription factor C/EBPb and the anti-apoptotic protein BCL2A1 are absolutely necessary to induce cell transformation and/or to sustain the growth and survival of ALK positive ALCL cells. Thus, we proved that an experimentally controlled and functionally validated GEP analysis represents a powerful tool to identify novel pathogenetic networks and validate biologically suitable target genes for therapeutic interventions. Experiment Overall Design: This series of microarray experiments contains the gene expression profiles of Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (ALCL) cell lines (TS [a subclone of Sup-M2] and Su-DHL1) engineered to express ALK-A5 shRNA under a doxycycline-inducible promoter or treated with cell permeable pyrrolocarbazole-derived ALK inhibitors. A mutated ALK-A5M shRNA was used as control. Briefly, cells were transduced with pLV-DsRed-tTRKRAB, expanded, and used for transduction with pLVTH-GFP-shRNA lentiviral particles. Cells were induced with doxycycline (1 microg/ml) for 12 hours, double GFP+ DsRed+ cells selected by fluorescence-activated cell sorting. Cells expressing GFP in the absence of the inducer were removed by a second flow cytometry sorting, and expanded. shRNA expression was induced by doxycycline treatment for 72 or 84 hours. Drug treatments (300 nM), were performed in TS cells with ALK inhibitors (A2 or A3), mock compound (A1), or control diluent for 6 hours. 5 micrograms of total RNA was processed and hybridized to the Affymetrix HG-U133A chip following the manufacturer's instructions.

Project description:We used mass spectrometry-based proteomics to unravel anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) signaling in the ALK and MYCN amplified neuroblastoma cell line, NB1. We specifically measured the ALK interactome, phosphoproteome, phosphotyrosine interactome and proteome as outlined below. ALK Interactome and phosphoproteome: For each experiment, three SILAC conditions (‘Light’: Lys0,Arg0, ‘Medium’: Lys4,Arg6, ‘Heavy’: Lys8,Arg10) of NB1 cells were treated for 30 minutes with each of the following ALK-targeting small-molecule inhibitors: TAE684 (100 nM), crizotinib (500 nM), and LDK378 (250 nM). The experiments were performed as specified below: Experiment 1: Light: 500 nM crizotinib, Medium: 100 nM TAE684, Heavy: 0.1% DMSO Experiment 2: Light: 100 nM TAE684, Medium: 250 nM LDK378, Heavy: 0.1% DMSO Experiment 3: Light: 250 nM LDK378, Medium: 500 nM crizotinib, Heavy: 0.1% DMSO These three triple-SILAC experiments allowed the effect of each inhibitor to be measured in duplicates. ALK phosphotyrosine interactome: To identify phosphotyrosine-specific interaction partners of ALK we used a label-free mass spectrometry-based proteomics approach. Interacting proteins to the peptide sequences (phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated peptide) indicated in the table below were identified by a peptide pull-down assay and mass spectrometry. Peptide pull-downs were performed on NB1 cell lysate prepared from cells treated for 30 minutes with LDK378 (250 nM) or DMSO. Each peptide pull-down was performed on lysates from two biological replicates.
