Project description:TAZ-CAMTA1 is a defining genetic aberration in the vascular cancer epithelioid hemangioendothelioma. We generated a novel transgenic mouse that expresses TAZ-CAMTA1 in endothelial cells. These mice develop vascular tumors in the lung and die by average on day 40. We isolated GFP + endothelial cells from three five-week old TRE-TAZ-CAMTA1;Cdh5-tTA;TRE-GFP mice and subjected these endothelial cells to scRNA-seq via the 10X genomics platform
Project description:TAZ-CAMTA1 is a defining genetic aberration in the vascular cancer epithelioid hemangioendothelioma. We studied the transcriptome of TAZ-CAMTA1 and compared it to that of control or activated TAZ (TAZ4A)-expressing endothelial cells. We utilized an immortalized, mouse endothelial cell line known as MS1. We present and make available the first RNA-sequencing data of TAZ-CAMTA1's transcriptome in endothelial cells
Project description:The WWTR1(TAZ)-CAMTA1 and YAP1-TFE3 gene fusions are disease defining gene alterations for epithelioid hemangioendothelioma, a vascular cancer. The resultant fusion proteins fuse the C terminus of CAMTA1 and TFE3 in frame to the N terminus of TAZ and YAP, respectively. An unbiased BioID-mass spectrometry/RNAi screen identified YEATS2 and ZZZ3 as components of the Ada2a-containing histone acetyltransferase complex and key interactors of both TAZ-CAMTA1 and YAP-TFE3. An integrative NGS approach including RNA-Seq, ChIP-Seq, and ATAC-Seq showed TAZ-CAMTA1 and YAP-TFE3 transcriptional programs overlap with TAZ and YAP but also drive expression of a novel transcriptome.

An integrative NGS approach including RNA-Seq and ATAC-Seq showed that the differentially expressed genes in YAP-TFE3 cells with knockdown of YEATS2 or ZZZ3 are nested in regions of open chromatin unique to YAP-TFE3. The altered transcriptional program of the fusion proteins is modulated by the Ada2a-containing histone acetyltransferase complex.
