Project description:Whole-exome sequencing studies have identified common mutations affecting genes encoding components of the RNA splicing machinery in hematological malignancies. Here, we sought to determine how mutations affecting the 3' splice site recognition factor U2AF1 altered its normal role in RNA splicing. We find that U2AF1 mutations influence the similarity of splicing programs in leukemias, but do not give rise to widespread splicing failure. U2AF1 mutations cause differential splicing of hundreds of genes, affecting biological pathways implicated in myeloid disease such as DNA methylation (DNMT3B), X chromosome inactivation (H2AFY), the DNA damage response (ATR, FANCA), and apoptosis (CASP8). We show that U2AF1 mutations alter the preferred 3' splice site motif in vivo, in cell culture, and in vitro. Mutations affecting the first and second zinc fingers give rise to different alterations in splice site preference and largely distinct downstream splicing programs. These allele-specific effects are consistent with a computationally predicted model of U2AF1 in complex with RNA. Our findings suggest that U2AF1 mutations contribute to pathogenesis by causing quantitative changes in splicing that affect diverse cellular pathways, and give insight into the normal function of U2AF1’s zinc finger domains. mRNA profiles of K562 cells expressing U2AF1 WT, mutants and knockdown of U2AF1 generated by deep sequencing.

Project description:Splicing factor mutations are common among cancers, recently emerging as drivers of myeloid malignancies. U2AF1 carries hotspot mutations in its RNA binding motifs; yet how they affect splicing and promote cancer remains unclear. The U2AF1/U2AF2 heterodimer is critical for 3’ splice site (3’SS) definition. To specifically unmask changes in U2AF1 function in vivo, we developed a crosslinking and immunoprecipitation procedure detecting contacts between U2AF1 and the 3’SS AG at single-nucleotide resolution (fractionated eCLIP-seq or freCLIP-seq). Our data reveal that U2AF1 S34F and Q157R mutants establish new 3’SS contacts at -3 and +1 nucleotides, respectively. These effects compromise U2AF2-RNA interactions, resulting predominantly in intron retention and exon exclusion. Integrating RNA binding (eCLIP-seq and freCLIP-seq), splicing (RNA-seq) and turnover (TimeLapse-seq or TL-seq) data, we predicted that U2AF1 mutations directly affect stress granule components. Remarkably, U2AF1-mutant cell lines and patient-derived MDS/AML blasts displayed a heightened stress granule response, pointing to a novel role for biomolecular condensates in adaptive oncogenic strategies.

Project description:U2AF1 is involved in the recognition of the 3’ splice site during pre-mRNA splicing. Mutations in U2AF1 are frequently observed in myelodysplastic syndromes. However, the role of wild-type U2AF1 in normal hematopoiesis has remained elusive. Using a novel conditional U2af1 knockout allele, we have found that deletion of U2af1 results in profound defects in hematopoiesis characterized by pancytopenia, ablation of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) leading to bone marrow failure and early lethality in mice. U2af1 deletion impairs HSPC function and repopulation capacity. U2af1 deletion also causes increased DNA damage and reduced survival in hematopoietic progenitors. RNA sequencing analysis reveals significant alterations in the expression of genes related to HSC maintenance, cell proliferation and DNA damage response-related pathways in U2af1-deficient HSPC. U2af1 deficiency also induces splicing alterations in genes important for HSPC function. Collectively, these results suggest an important role for U2af1 in the maintenance and function of HSPC in normal hematopoiesis. A better understanding of the normal function of U2AF1 in hematopoiesis is important for development of appropriate therapeutic approaches for U2AF1 mutant induced hematologic malignancies.

Project description:Somatic mutations in the spliceosome have emerged in recent years as oncogenes in human cancer. These mutations are in the factors involved in splice site selection, including a missense mutation (Ser34Phe) in a conserved nucleic acid binding domain of the spicing factor U2AF1. This protein plays a critical role in recognition of the 3'-splice site and assembly of the pre-spliceosomal complex. However, the role that this mutation plays in oncogenesis is still unknown. Here, we have uncovered a non-canonical function of U2AF1. PAR-CLIP and RIP data show that U2AF1 directly binds mature mRNA in the cytoplasm and that binding on or near the start codon results in translational repression. This splicing-independent translational regulatory role of U2AF1 is altered by the S34F mutation, leading to elevated translation of hundreds of mRNA, as revealed by polysome profiling.

Project description:Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogenous group of hematopoietic stem cell disorders characterized by dysplastic blood cell formation and peripheral blood cytopenias. Up to 30% of patients with MDS will progress to a highly chemotherapy-resistant secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML). We identified mutations in U2AF1 in MDS patients and patients with U2AF1 mutations are at an increased risk of developing sAML. We identified mutations in U2AF1 in patients with MDS and hypothesized that U2AF1 mutations may represent a novel mechanism that could alter gene expression in MDS. To elucidate gene expression changes associated with U2AF1 mutations, we analyzed the global mRNA expression profile obtained from bone marrow CD34+ cells purified from 5 MDS patients with a U2AF1 mutation, 10 MDS patients without a mutation, and 4 normal donors.

Project description:Mutations in RNA splicing factor genes including SF3B1, U2AF1, SRSF2, and ZRSR2 have been reported to contribute to development of myeloid neoplasms including myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML). Chemical tools targeting cells carrying these mutant genes remain limited and underdeveloped. Among the four proteins, mutant U2AF1 (U2AF1mut) acquires an altered 3’ splice site selection preference and co-operates with the wild-type U2AF1 (U2AF1wt) to change various gene isoform patterns to support MDS cells survival and proliferation. U2AF1 mutations in MDS cells are always heterozygous and the cell viability is reduced when exposed to additional insult affecting U2AF1wt function. To investigate if the pharmacological inhibition of U2AF1wt function can provoke drug-induced vulnerability of cells harboring U2AF1mut, we conducted a fragment-based library screening campaign to discover compounds targeting the U2AF homology domain (UHM) in U2AF1 that is required for the formation of the U2AF1/U2AF2 complex to define the 3' splice site. The most promising hit (SF1-8) selectively inhibited growth of leukemia cell lines overexpressingU2AF1mut and human primary MDS cells carrying U2AF1mut. RNA-seq analysis of K562-U2AF1mut following treatment with SF1-8 further revealed alteration of isoform patterns for a set of proteins that impair or rescue pathways associated with endocytosis, intracellular vesicle transport, and secretion. Our data suggested that further optimization of SF1-8 is warranted to obtain chemical probes that can be used to evaluate the therapeutic concept of inducing lethality to U2AF1mut cells by inhibiting the U2AF1wt protein.

Project description:U2AF1 S34F is one of the most recurrent splicing factor mutations in lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) and has been shown to cause transcriptome-wide pre-mRNA splicing alterations. While U2AF1 S34F-associated splicing alterations have been described, the fate of affected mRNA isoforms remains largely unexplored. To better understand the impact U2AF1 S34F has on isoform fate and function, we conducted high-throughput long-read cDNA sequencing from isogenic human bronchial epithelial cells with and without U2AF1 S34F mutation. We find that nearly 75% (49,366) of our long-read constructed multi-exon isoforms do not overlap GENCODE or short-read assembled isoforms, a large proportion of which (12,397) are due to novel junction connectivity rather than novel splice site usage. We find 198 transcript isoforms with significant expression and usage changes relative to wild-type, some of which were not assembled by short-reads. We find an enrichment of isoforms from immune related genes are down regulated in the presence of U2Af1 S34F, none of which are observed to have splicing changes detected from long-read data. Finally, we reveal that isoforms likely targeted by nonsense-mediated decay are largely downregulated in U2AF1 S34F cells, suggesting that the impact of observed isoform changes may alter the translational output of affected genes. Altogether, our data builds on previous work by providing a higher resolution transcriptome snapshot of full-length isoform alterations associated with U2AF1 S34F in HBEC3kt cells.

Project description:Acquired spliceosome gene mutations are among the most common genetic alterations in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Here we present evidence that H2AFY(macroH2A1), a histone H2A variant, is a functional target that is alternatively spliced by mutant U2AF1(S34F), a spliceosome gene. Expression of H2AFY1.1, a H2AFY splice-isoform that is reduced by U2AF1(S34F) expression, rescues the reduction in B-cells observed in U2AF1(S34F) mice. Human MDS samples with U2AF1 mutations have a similar reduction in B-cells. Collectively, our data suggest that altered splicing of H2AFY contributes to MDS pathogenesis.
