Project description:Engineered extrachromosomal circular DNAs promote tumorigenesis (WGS)
| PRJNA1100545 | ENA
Project description:Focal gene amplifications are among the most common cancer-associated mutations, but their evolution and contribution to tumorigenesis have proven challenging to recapitulate in primary cells and model organisms. Here we describe a general strategy to engineer large (>1 Mbp) focal amplifications mediated by extrachromosomal circular DNAs (ecDNAs) in a spatiotemporally controlled manner in cells and in genetically engineered mice. By coupling ecDNA formation with expression of selectable markers, we track the dynamics of ecDNA-containing cells under physiological conditions and in the presence of specific selective pressures. We also apply this approach to generate mice harboring Cre-inducible Myc- and Mdm2-containing ecDNAs analogous to those occurring in human cancers. We show that the engineered ecDNAs spontaneously accumulate in primary cells derived from these animals, promoting their proliferation, immortalization, and transformation. Finally, we demonstrate the ability of Mdm2-containing ecDNAs to promote tumor formation in an autochthonous mouse model of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Project description:Extrachromosomal circular DNAs (eccDNAs) are usually somatically mosaic and a source of intercellular heterogeneity in normal and tumor cells. Because short eccDNAs are poorly chromatinized, we hypothesized that they are sequenced by tagmentation in ATAC-seq experiments, without any enrichment of circular DNA, and thus identified thousands of eccDNAs. The eccDNAs identified in cell lines were validated by inverse PCR on DNA that survives exonuclease digestion of linear DNA, and by metaphase FISH. ATAC-seq in Gliomas and Glioblastomas identify hundreds of eccDNAs, including one containing the well-known EGFR gene amplicon from chr7. Over 18,000 eccDNAs, many carrying known cancer driver genes, are identified in a pan-cancer analysis of 360 ATAC-seq libraries from 23 tumor types. Because of somatic mosaicism, eccDNAs are identified by ATAC-seq even before amplification of the locus is recognized by genome-wide copy number variation measurements. Thus, standard ATAC-seq is a sensitive method to detect eccDNA present in a subset of tumor cells, ready to be amplified under appropriate selection, as during therapy.

Project description:Oncogenic extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNA) are common in cancers, but many questions about their origin, structural dynamics and impact on intratumor heterogeneity are still unresolved. Here we describe scEC&T-seq, a method for parallel isolation and sequencing of extrachromosomal circular DNAs and full-length mRNA from single human cells. By applying scEC&T-seq to cancer cells, we not only describe intercellular differences in ecDNA content, but also investigate their structural heterogeneity and transcriptional impact. We reveal that whereas oncogene-containing ecDNA elements are clonally present in cancer cells and drive intercellular oncogene expression differences, other small circular DNAs also captured by scEC&T-seq are mostly private to individual cancer cells, indicating differences in selection and propagation. Moreover, scEC&T-seq uncovers intercellular differences in ecDNA structure, which allowed the inference of ecDNA structural dynamics and point to circular recombination as a potential mechanism of ecDNA evolution. We envision that our method may enable the analysis of yet unknown prerequisites for the maintenance of both small and large circular DNA in cancers, but also in the context of other diseases and normal cellular development.

Project description:Extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) is double-stranded circular DNA that is derived from but independent of chromosomal DNA. Owing to its nonchromosomal inheritance, eccDNA facilitates the amplification of oncogenes and expedites the process of genome evolution in tumor. However, the role of eccDNA in RB remains enigmatic. We combined Circle-Seq and RNA-Seq to identified crucial extrachromosomal circular oncogene amplicons. Herein, we revealed that extrachromosomal circular SUZ12 amplicon regulates H3K27me3 modification during the oncogenic progression of retinoblastoma. Conclusively, our study initially delineated an integrated picture of the eccDNA landscape in retinoblastoma and unveiled a novel SUZ12-containing eccDNA/H3K27me3 oncogenic mechanism where eccDNA dictates retinoblastoma progression through regulating transcription levels of linear DNA.

Project description:Heterochromatin domains defined by distinct histone methylation patterns are a major feature of mammalian genomes. Epigenetic pathways ensure stable heterochromatin inheritance through cell division to prevent the expression of lineage-inappropriate genes and defects in this process can lead to many diseases including cancer. Previous studies have shown that heterochromatin maintenance requires a critical threshold of methylated histones, but how modified parental histones are transferred to daughter strands during DNA replication is unclear. We find that heterochromatin domains are specialized replication zones enriched in replisome components, which load factors that help retain parental histones. This mechanism is further supported by the boundary elements surrounding the heterochromatin domains. DNA replication is thus coordinated with histone preservation to facilitate epigenetic inheritance of heterochromatin.
