Project description:Ferroptosis is a type of programmed cell death caused by disruption of redox homeostasis, and is closely linked to amino acid metabolism. Yin Yang 2 (YY2) and its homolog Yin Yang 1 (YY1) are members of the YY family with high homology, especially in their zinc-finger domains. Furthermore, they share consensus DNA binding motif. In contrast with the oncogenic YY1, increasing evidences have demonstrated the tumor suppressive effect of YY2; however, at present, little is known about its biological and pathological functions. Here we found that YY2 induces tumor cells ferroptosis and subsequently, suppresses tumorigenesis, by inhibiting SLC7A11 transcription, leading to the decreased glutathione biosynthesis. Furthermore, we reveal that YY2 and YY1 bind competitively to SLC7A11 promoter and antagonistically regulate tumor cells ferroptosis, thus suggesting the molecular mechanism underlying their opposite regulation on tumorigenesis. Moreover, we showed that mutations of YY2 zinc-finger domains in clinical cancer patients abrogated YY2/SLC7A11 axis and tumor cells ferroptosis. Together, these results provide a new insight regarding the regulatory mechanism of ferroptosis, and a mechanistic explanation regarding the tumor suppressive effect of YY2. Furthermore, our findings demonstrate that homeostasis between YY1 and YY2 is crucial for maintaining redox homeostasis in tumor cells.

Project description:Yin Yang 1 (YY1) is a critical transcription factor controlling cell proliferation, development and DNA damage responses. Although two homologous Drosophila YY family members (pleiohomeotic (pho)) and pleiohomeotic-like (phol)) are redundant, the functional significance of a recently described mammalian YY1-like gene (YY2) is unknown. Using microarray and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), we found that lentiviral constructs containing short hairpin loop YY1- and YY2-specific inhibitory RNAs (shYY1 and shYY2) caused significant changes in both redundant and distinguishable expression patterns. Ribosomal protein genes were the most significant gene set up-regulated by both shYY1 and shYY2, although combined shYY1/shYY2 knockdowns were not additive. In contrast, shYY2 reversed anti-proliferative effects of shYY1 on E2F target genes, and shYY2 particularly altered UV damage response, platelet-specific genes and mitochondrial function genes. The most YY2-specific gene was the platelet glycoprotein CD36 whose ligand is thrombospondin - a key UV response gene. We found that decreases in YY1 or YY2 caused inverse changes in UV sensitivity, and that their combined loss reversed their respective individual effects. Taken together, our studies show that YY2 is not redundant to YY1, and YY2 is a significant regulator of genes previously thought to uniquely respond to YY1. Functions of thrombospondin and CD36 in inflammation, atherogenesis, innate immunity and malaria pathogenesis reveal new potential regulatory roles for YY1 and YY2. Four treatment groups were used that included control vector (pLKO) virus, shYY1, shYY2 and shYY1 combined with shYY2. Three replicas were performed for all except shYY2, where we performed four replicas. Target gene comparison of YY1 And YY2 homologous genes.

Project description:Yin Yang 1 (YY1) is a multifunctional DNA-binding transcription factor shown to be critical in a variety of biological processes, and its activity and function have been shown to be regulated by multitude of mechanisms, which include but are not limited to post-translational modifications (PTMs), its associated proteins and cellular localization. YY2, the paralog of YY1 in mouse and human, has been proposed to function redundantly or oppositely in a context specific manner compared to YY1. Despite its functional importance, how YY2’s DNA binding activity and function is regulated, particularly by PTMs, remains completely unknown. Here we report the first PTM with functional characterization on YY2, namely lysine 247 mono-methylation (K247me1), which was found to be dynamically regulated by SET7/9 and LSD1 both in vitro and in cultured cells. Functional study revealed that SET7/9-mediated YY2 methylation regulated its DNA-binding activity in vitro and association with chromatin examined by ChIP-seq (chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with sequencing) in cultured cells. Knockout of YY2, SET7/9 or LSD1 by CRISPR (clustered, regularly interspaced, short palindromic repeats) /Cas9-mediated gene editing followed by RNA-seq revealed that a subset of genes was positively-regulated by YY2 and SET7/9, but negatively-regulated by LSD1, which were enriched with genes involved in cell proliferation regulation. Importantly, YY2-regulated gene transcription, cell proliferation and tumor growth were dependent, at least partially, on YY2 K247 methylation. Finally, somatic mutations on YY2 found in cancer, which are in close proximity to K247, altered its methylation, DNA binding activity and gene transcription it controls. Our findings revealed the first PTM with functional implications imposed on YY2 protein, and linked YY2 methylation with its biological functions.

Project description:Genome-wide CRISPRi/a screens in human neurons link lipid imbalance to ferroptosis
| PRJNA641125 | ENA
Project description:Neurons are unique among all human cell types in their high energy demand, long lifespans and rich lipid contents. As such, neurons exhibit unique vulnerability to oxidative stress caused by redox imbalance in aging and neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs). To systematically identify regulators of neuronal survival under oxidative stress and regulators of neuronal redox homeostasis, we conducted multiple survival- and FACS-based genome-wide screens in human iPSC-derived neurons, using our functional genomics toolkit including a previously established CRISPRi approach and a newly developed CRISPRa approach. So far, these are the first genome-wide screens in human neurons. Our results revealed that inhibiting glycosphingolipids (GSLs) degradation by depletion of prosaposin (PSAP) drives the formation of lipofuscins in neurons which leads to iron accumulation and strongly induces ROS production that oxidizing lipids and leads to neuronal ferroptosis under oxidative stress. We also conducted single cell CROP-seq screens that revealed transcriptomic signatures of NDD-associated genes. These datasets are freely available through our open-access database CRISPRbrain.

Project description:Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of cell death driven by biochemical and metabolic alterations resulting in oxidation within the lipid compartment. Calcium is a potent signaling molecule ascribed to diverse cellular processes including migration, neurotransmitter function, and cell death. Here we elucidate a crucial link between calcium homeostasis and ferroptotic cell death through the identification of the tetraspanin MS4A15. Ectopic MS4A15 expression specifically protects against ferroptosis by depleting endoplasmic reticulum stores. In an unexpected connection, prolonged calcium dysregulation stimulates fundamental remodeling to ferroptosis-resistant monounsaturated and plasmalogen lipid species. Application of this discovery revealed that augmenting luminal calcium sensitizes cancer cell lines previously refractory to ferroptosis. This finding provides a unique mechanistic basis for ferroptosis sensitivity and resolves a long-standing query into the role of calcium in oxidative cell death. Manipulating calcium homeostasis offers an unprecedented strategy for overcoming therapy resistance in cancer.

Project description:YY1 is a ubiquitously expressed, intrinsically disordered transcription factor involved in neural development. The oligomeric state of YY1 varies depending on the environment. These changes may alter its DNA binding ability and hence its transcriptional activity. In addition to its oligomeric state, the interaction of YY1 with proteins such as FOXP2 can impact its role in transcription. The aim of this work is to study the structure and dynamics of YY1 binding to DNA and to determine the influence of oligomerisation and associations with FOXP2 on its DNA binding mechanism. Size exclusion chromatography, fluorescence anisotropy and electrophoretic mobility shift assays were used to study YY1 oligomerisation and interaction with FOXP2. To better understand potential structural changes to YY1 upon DNA binding, hydrogen deuterium exchange mass spectrometry was used. The results indicate that YY1 consists of specific structured regions, while most of the sequence remains disordered. Furthermore, the oligomeric nature of the protein is dependent on ionic strength. DNA affects oligomerisation and the protein undergoes changes in structure and dynamics upon DNA binding. YY1 and FOXP2 were found to interact with each other both in isolation and in the presence of YY1-specific DNA. The heterogeneous, dynamic multimerisation of YY1 identified in this work is, therefore, likely to be important for its ability to make heterologous associations with other proteins such as FOXP2. The interactions that YY1 forms with itself, FOXP2 and DNA form part of an intricate mechanism of transcriptional regulation by YY1, which is vital for appropriate neural development.
