Project description:Intratumor heterogeneity and phenotypic plasticity drive tumour progression and therapy resistance. Oncogene dosage variation contributes to cell state transitions and phenotypic heterogeneity, thereby providing a substrate for somatic evolution. Nonetheless, the genetic mechanisms underlying phenotypic heterogeneity are still poorly understood. Here, we show that extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) is a major source of high-level focal amplification in key oncogenes and a major contributor of MYC heterogeneity in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). We demonstrate that ecDNAs drive varying levels of MYC dosage, depending on their regulatory landscape, enabling cancer cells to rapidly and reversibly adapt to microenvironmental changes. In absence of selective pressure, a high ecDNA copy number imposes a substantial fitness cost on PDAC cells. We also show that MYC dosage affects cell morphology and dependence of cancer cells on stromal niche factors. Our work provides the first detailed analysis of ecDNAs in PDAC and describes a new genetic mechanism driving MYC heterogeneity in PDAC.

Project description:Extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) is prevalent in human cancers and mediates high oncogene expression through gene amplification and altered gene regulation. Gene induction typically involves cis regulatory elements that contact and activate genes on the same chromosome. Here we show that ecDNA hubs, clusters of ~10-100 ecDNAs within the nucleus, enable intermolecular enhancer-gene interactions to promote oncogene overexpression in trans. ecDNAs encoding multiple distinct oncogenes form hubs in diverse cancer cell types and primary tumors. Each ecDNA is more likely to transcribe the oncogene when spatially clustered with additional ecDNAs. ecDNA hubs are tethered by the BET protein BRD4 in a MYC-amplified colorectal cancer cell line. BET inhibitor JQ1 disperses ecDNA hubs and preferentially inhibits ecDNA-based oncogene transcription. A BRD4-bound promoter in PVT1 is ectopically fused to MYC and duplicated in ecDNA, receiving promiscuous enhancer input to drive potent MYC expression. PVT1 promoter on a heterologous episome suffices to mediate gene activation in trans by ecDNA hubs in a JQ1-sensitive manner. Systematic CRISPRi silencing of ecDNA enhancers reveal intermolecular enhancer-gene activation among multiple oncogene loci amplified on distinct ecDNAs. Together, these results demonstrate that ecDNA hubs are protein-tethered clusters of ecDNAs which enable intermolecular transcriptional regulation. ecDNA hubs may act as units of oncogene function, cooperative evolution, and potential targets for cancer therapy.
