Project description:Inherited or sporadic mutations in the transcription factor GATA2 have been shown to be responsible for MonoMAC syndrome, a GATA2 deficiency disease characterized by a constellation of findings including disseminated non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections, severe deficiencies of monocytes, natural killer cells, and B-lymphocytes, and myelodysplastic syndrome. Mutations in the GATA2 gene are found in ~90% of patients with a GATA2 deficiency phenotype and are largely missense mutations in the conserved second zinc-finger domain or truncation mutations elsewhere in the coding sequence. Mutations in an intron 5 regulatory enhancer element are also well described in GATA2 deficiency. Here we present a large multigeneration kindred with the clinical features of GATA2 deficiency but lacking an apparent GATA2 mutation. Whole Genome Sequencing revealed a unique Adenine-to-Thymine variant in the GATA2 -110 enhancer 116,855bp upstream of the GATA2 gene. The mutation creates a new E-box consensus in position with an existing GATA-box to generate a new hematopoietic regulatory composite element. The mutation segregates with the disease pattern in five generations of the family pedigree. Cell-type specific allelic imbalance of GATA2 expression is observed in a patient’s bone marrow with higher expression from the mutant-linked allele. Allele-specific overexpression of GATA2 is observed in CRISPR/Cas9-modified HL60 cultured cells and in luciferase assays with the enhancer mutation. This study demonstrates overexpression of GATA2 resulting from a single nucleotide change in an upstream regulatory enhancer element in patients with MonoMAC syndrome.

Project description:Typical features of GATA2 deficiency were observed in a individual with wild-type GATA2 sequence. The patient had a de novo tandem duplication of 187Kb spanning GATA2 and RPN1 containing a deletion of 25Kb 5’ of RPN1, inherited from the mother. The deletion is a copy number variant present in about 4% of Europeans (GRCh37: esv2725896 and nsv513733; GRCh38: esv3597711) and removes an alternative 5’ start site of RPN1 at 128,400Kb, associated with CTCF and H3K27ac binding peaks. A second copy of GATA2 is translocated to this region by the tandem duplication. RNA-Seq was underatken in order to identify any gene fussion events resulting from the mutation and to inverstigate differences in gene expression between the patient and controls.

Project description:While certain human genetic variants are conspicuously loss-of-function, decoding the functional impact of many variants is challenging. Previously, we described a leukemia predisposition syndrome (GATA2-deficiency) patient with a germline GATA2 variant that inserts nine amino acids between the two zinc fingers (9aa-Ins). Here, we conducted mechanistic analyses using genomic technologies in Gata2 enhancer-mutant hematopoietic progenitor cells to reveal how the insertion impacts GATA2 function genome-wide. Despite being nuclear-localized, 9aa-Ins was severely defective, with activation more impaired than repression. Variation of the inter-zinc finger spacer length revealed that repression tolerated insertions that were detrimental to activation. GATA2 deficiency generated a hematopoiesis-disrupting signaling network in progenitor cells with reduced Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) signaling and elevated Interleukin-6 (IL-6) signaling. As insufficient GM-CSF signaling causes pulmonary alveolar proteinosis and excessive IL-6 signaling causes bone marrow failure, hallmark phenotypes of GATA2-deficiency patients, these results establish molecular mechanisms underlying GATA2-linked pathologies.

Project description:Mutations in the transcription factor GATA2 can cause MonoMAC syndrome, a GATA2 deficiency disease characterized by several findings, including disseminated nontuberculous mycobacterial infections, severe deficiencies of monocytes, natural killer cells, and B lymphocytes, and myelodysplastic syndrome. GATA2 mutations are found in ∼90% of patients with a GATA2 deficiency phenotype and are largely missense mutations in the conserved second zinc-finger domain. Mutations in an intron 5 regulatory enhancer element are also well described in GATA2 deficiency. Here, we present a multigeneration kindred with the clinical features of GATA2 deficiency but lacking an apparent GATA2 mutation. Whole genome sequencing revealed a unique adenine-to-thymine variant in the GATA2 -110 enhancer 116,855 bp upstream of the GATA2 ATG start site. The mutation creates a new E-box consensus in position with an existing GATA-box to generate a new hematopoietic regulatory composite element.

This study demonstrates overexpression of GATA2 resulting from a single nucleotide change in an upstream enhancer element in patients with MonoMAC syndrome. Patients in this study were enrolled in the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases clinical trial and the National Cancer Institute clinical trial (both trials were registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT01905826 and #NCT01861106, respectively).

Project description:Although certain human genetic variants are conspicuously loss-of-function, decoding the impact of many variants is challenging. Previously, we described a leukemia predisposition syndrome (GATA2-deficiency) patient with a germline GATA2 variant that inserts nine amino acids between the two zinc fingers (9aa-Ins). Here, we conducted mechanistic analyses using genomic technologies and a genetic rescue system with Gata2 enhancer-mutant hematopoietic progenitor cells to compare how GATA2 and 9aa-Ins function genome-wide. Despite nuclear localization, 9aa-Ins was severely defective in occupying and remodeling chromatin and regulating transcription. Variation of the inter-zinc finger spacer length revealed that insertions were more deleterious to activation than repression. GATA2-deficiency generated a lineage-diverting gene expression program and a hematopoiesis-disrupting signaling network in progenitors with reduced Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) and elevated Interleukin-6 (IL-6) signaling. As insufficient GM-CSF signaling causes pulmonary alveolar proteinosis and excessive IL-6 signaling promotes bone marrow failure, GATA2-deficiency patient phenotypes, these results provide insight into mechanisms underlying GATA2-linked pathologies.

Project description:The nuclear receptor PPAR gamma is required for adipocyte differentiation, but its role in mature adipocytes is less clear. Here we report that knockdown of PPAR gamma expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes returned the expression of most adipocyte genes towards preadipocyte levels. Consistently, down regulated but not up regulated genes showed strong enrichment of PPAR gamma binding. Surprisingly, not all adipocyte genes were reversed and the adipocyte morphology was maintained for an extended period after PPAR gamma depletion. To explain this, we focused on transcriptional regulators whose adipogenic regulation was not reversed upon PPAR gamma depletion. We identified GATA2, a transcription factor whose down-regulation early in adipogenesis is required for preadipocyte differentiation, remaining low after PPAR gamma knockdown. Forced expression of GATA2 in mature adipocytes complemented PPAR gamma depletion and impaired adipocyte functionality with a more preadipocyte- like gene expression profile. Ectopic expression of GATA2 in adipose tissue in vivo had similar effect on adipogenic gene expression. These results suggest that PPAR gamma-independent down regulation of GATA2 prevents reversion of mature adipocytes after PPAR gamma depletion.

Project description:To clarify the role of Gata2 in the development of Cbfb-MYH11 induced leukemia, we generated conditional Cbfb-MYH11 knockin mice with Gata2 heterozygous knockout. Leukemic cells with Gata2 heterozygous knockout gained higher number of genetic mutations and showed more aggressive phenotype in both primary and transplanted recipient mice. We compared gene expression profilings between Gata2+/+ and Gata2+/f leukemic cells with Cbfb-MYH11.
