Project description:Activation of oncogenic gene expression from long-range enhancers is initiated by the assembly of DNA-binding transcription factors (TF), leading to recruitment of co-activators such as CBP/p300 to modify the local genomic context and facilitate RNA-Polymerase 2 (Pol2) binding. Yet, most TF-to-coactivator recruitment relationships remain unmapped. Here, studying the oncogenic fusion TF PAX3-FOXO1 (P3F) from alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (aRMS), we show that a single cysteine in the activation domain (AD) of PAX3-FOXO1 forms a small alpha helical hook that recruits CBP/p300 to chromatin. P3F driven transcription requires both this single cysteine, and also CBP/p300. Furthermore, we discover a profound dependence on CBP/p300 for clustering of Pol2 loops that connect P3F to its target genes. In the absence of CBP/p300, Pol2 long range enhancer loops collapse, Pol2 accumulates in CpG islands and fails to exit the gene body. These results reveal a potential novel axis for therapeutic interference with P3F in aRMS and clarify the molecular relationship of P3F and CBP/p300 in sustaining active Pol2 clusters essential for oncogenic transcription.

Here, studying the oncogenic fusion TF PAX3-FOXO1 (P3F) from alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (aRMS), we show that a single cysteine in the activation domain (AD) of P3F is important for a small alpha helical coil that recruits CBP/p300 to chromatin. P3F driven transcription requires both this single cysteine and CBP/p300. Mutants of the cysteine reduce aRMS cell proliferation and induce cellular differentiation. Furthermore, we discover a profound dependence on CBP/p300 for clustering of Pol2 loops that connect P3F to its target genes. In the absence of CBP/p300, Pol2 long range enhancer loops collapse, Pol2 accumulates in CpG islands and fails to exit the gene body.

Project description:PAX3-FOXO1 is a fusion transcription factor that is the main driver of tumorigenesis leading to the development of alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (aRMS). Since aRMS cells are addicted to PAX3-FOXO1 activity, the fusion protein also represents a major target for therapeutic interference, which is however challenging as transcription factors usually cannot be inhibited directly by small molecules. Hence, characterization of the biology of PAX3-FOXO1 might lead to the discovery of new possibilities for an indirect inhibition of its activity. Here, our goal was to characterize the proteomic neighborhood of PAX3-FOXO1 and to find candidates potentially affecting its activity and tumor cell viability. Towards this aim, we expressed BirA fused versions of PAX3-FOXO1 (N- and C-terminal) in HEK293T cells under presence of biotin. In the control setup, we expressed the BirA enzyme alone. After Streptavidin purification of biotinylated proteins, we performed mass spectrometry and quantified relative abundances compared to control conditions. This enabled us to determine PAX3-FOXO1 proximal proteins, which we investigated further in orthogonal endogenous systems.

Project description:Fusion-positive rhabdomyosarcoma (FP-RMS) is driven by a translocation that creates the chimeric transcription factor PAX3-FOXO1 (P3F), which assembles de novo super enhancers to drive high levels of transcription of other core regulatory transcription factors (CRTFs). P3F recruits co-regulatory factors to super enhancers such as BRD4, which recognizes acetylated lysines via BET bromodomains. In this study, we demonstrate that inhibition or degradation of BRD4 leads to global decreases in transcription, and selective downregulation of CRTFs. We also show that the BRD4 degrader ARV-771 halts transcription while preserving RNA Polymerase II (Pol2) loops between super enhancers and their target genes, and causes the removal of Pol2 only past the transcriptional end site of CRTF genes, suggesting a novel effect of BRD4 on Pol2 looping. We finally test the most potent molecule, inhibitor BMS-986158, in an orthotopic PDX mouse model of FP-RMS with additional high-risk mutations, and find that it is well tolerated in vivo and leads to an average decrease in tumor size. This effort represents a partnership with an FP-RMS patient and family advocates to make preclinical data rapidly accessible to the family, and to generate data to inform future patients who develop this disease.

Project description:The fusion transcription factor PAX3-FOXO1 drives oncogenesis in a subset of rhabdomyosarcomas, however the mechanisms by which it remodels chromatin are unknown. We find PAX3-FOXO1 reprograms the cis-regulatory landscape by inducing super enhancers (SEs), in collaboration with master transcription factors MYOG, MYOD and MYCN. This myogenic SE circuitry is consistent across cell lines and primary tumors. Deregulation of PAX3-FOXO1 itself occurs by translocation-induced chromatin loops bringing the PAX3 promoter under the control of FOXO1 enhancers. Protein targets induced by, or bound to, PAX3-FOXO1 occupied SEs, were selectively sensitive to small molecule inhibition. PAX3-FOXO1 co-binds BRD4 at SEs, and BET bromodomains are required for PAX3-FOXO1-dependent transcription and cancer cell growth.

Project description:Hallmarks of the alveolar subclass of Rhabdomyosarcoma are chromosomal translocations that generate PAX3-FOXO1 or PAX7-FOXO1 chimeric transcription factors. Both PAX-FOXO1s drive related cell transformation in animal models, yet the two mutations are associated with distinct pathological manifestations in patients. To evaluate the mechanisms underlying these differences, we generated isogenic fibroblast lines expressing either PAX-FOXO1 paralog. Mapping their genome recruitment using CUT&Tag revealed that the two chimeric proteins have distinct DNA binding preferences. Furthermore, PAX7-FOXO1 causes stronger de novo transactivation of its bound regions than PAX3-FOXO1, resulting in greater transcriptomic dynamics involving genes regulating cell shape and cycle. Consistently, PAX3-FOXO1 accentuates fibroblast cellular traits associated with contractility and surface adhesion and limits entry to M phase. Instead, PAX7-FOXO1 pushes cells to adopt an amoeboid-like shape, reduce S phase entry and provokes more genome instabilities. Altogether, our results demonstrate that PAX7-FOXO1 has a greater chromatin remodelling and transactivating abilities and is more deleterious to cells than PAX3-FOXO1. Altogether our results argue that the diversity in rhabdomyosarcoma manifestation stems, in part, from the diverging transcriptional activity of PAX3-FOXO1 and PAX7-FOXO1. Furthermore, PAX7-FOXO1 pronounced deleterious effects provides an explanation for the low frequency of the translocation generating this factor in Rhabdomyosarcoma patients.

Project description:Chimeric transcription factors drive lineage-specific oncogenesis but are notoriously difficult to target. Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is an aggressive childhood soft tissue sarcoma transformed by the pathognomonic PAX3–FOXO1 fusion protein, which governs a core regulatory circuitry transcription factor (CRC TF) network. Here we show that the histone lysine demethylase KDM4B is a therapeutic vulnerability for PAX3–FOXO1+ RMS. Genetic and pharmacologic inhibition of KDM4B significantly delays tumor growth by disrupting the expression of CRC TFs caused by epigenetic alterations of PAX3–FOXO1-governed super enhancers. Combining KDM4B inhibition with cytotoxic chemotherapy leads to significant tumor regression in preclinical PAX3–FOXO1+ RMS models. In summary, we have identified a targetable mechanism required for maintenance of PAX3-FOXO1-related CRC TF network, which may translate to a novel therapeutic approach for fusion-positive RMS.
