Project description:Central to the molecular pathogenesis of MLL leukaemia is the abnormal co-optation of members of transcription complexes including disrupter of telomeric silencing 1-like (DOT1L) and bromodomain containing protein 4 (BRD4). Consequently, targeted therapies against DOT1L and BRD4 are currently being evaluated in clinical trials. However, the mechanisms by which BRD4 and DOT1L regulate leukaemogenic transcription programs remain unclear. Using quantitative proteomics, chemoproteomics and biochemical fractionation we find that native BRD4 and DOT1L exist in largely separate protein complexes. Genetic disruption or small molecule inhibition of BRD4 and DOT1L shows marked synergistic activity against MLL-FP leukaemia cell lines, primary human leukaemia cells and murine leukaemia models. Mechanistically, we find a previously unrecognised functional collaboration between DOT1L and BRD4 that is especially important at highly transcribed genes in close proximity to superenhancers. DOT1L via H3K79me2 facilitates the deposition of histone H4 acetylation, which in turn regulates the binding of BRD4 to chromatin. These data provide novel insights into the regulation of transcription and specify a molecular framework for therapeutic intervention in this poor prognostic disease.

Project description:Two independent, scaled, chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments were performed to uncover how Dot1l affects epigenetic modification (1) and RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) (2) localization. Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), embryonic stem cells (ESCs), and reprogramming MEFs on day 4 treated with control (DMSO) or Dot1l inhibitor (Dot1li -SGC0946) were profiled. 1) Although ESCs have less global enrichment of H3K79me2 by mass spectrometry than MEFs, H3K79me2 is largely localized on the same shared genes in both cells, yet with reduced levels in pluripotent cells. All degrees of H3K79me (1/2/3) are predominately enriched on the same genes across cell types. Treatment with Dot1li evicts H3K79me1/2/3 from MEF specific, ESC specific, and shared genes with H3K79me2 peaks and enables gain of H3K9ac during reprogramming. 2) To understand how genebody epigenetic modifications affect transcription, RNAPII was analyzed. ESCs have less RNAPII enrichment at the transcriptional start site (TSS), but have similar genebody enrichment as somatic cells indicative of more relative elongation. Dot1li treatment during reprogramming reduces RNAPII at the TSS compared to control.

Project description:Three independent transcriptional profiling experiments were performed to ascertain how Dot1L affects cell fate change. 1) In a timecoure ("Tc"), reprogramming mouse embryonic fibroblasts were treated with DMSO control or Dot1L inhibitor (Dot1Li -SGC0946) for 2 or 4 days. Surprisingly, despite the enrichment of H3K79me2 on thousands of actively transcribed genes, Dot1L inhibition (Dot1Li) results in few changes in steady state mRNA levels during reprogramming, the majority of which are spuriously upregulated. 2) To determine if Dot1Li increased reprogramming beyond the mesenchymal to epithelial transition (MET) that occurs early in reprogramming when starting from MEFs, reprogramming cells were sorted ("Sort") for surface CDH1 expression, and then treated with Dot1Li or control. Dot1Li increased reprogramming efficiency of both CDH1- and CDH1+ populations to a similar extent and few genes were DE. 3) To assess if Dot1Li increased pluripotency acquisition beyond CDH1 upregulation, CDH1 or empty vector was expressed ("Exp") in reprogramming cells. CDH1 expression did not initiate MET, or enhance reprogramming.

Project description:Osteoclasts are absorptive cells and play a critical role in homeostatic bone remodeling and pathological bone resorption. Emerging evidence suggests an important role for epigenetic regulation of osteoclastogenesis. In this study, we investigated the role of DOT1L, which regulates gene expression epigenetically by histone H3K79 methylation during osteoclast formation. DOT1L and H3K79me2 levels were upregulated during osteoclast differentiation. Small molecule inhibitor- (EPZ5676 or EPZ004777) or short hairpin RNA-mediated reduction in DOT1L expression promoted osteoclast differentiation and resorption. DOT1L inhibition also increased osteoclast area and accelerated bone mass reduction in a mouse ovariectomy (OVX) model of osteoporosis. DOT1L inhibitors did not alter osteoblast differentiation in vitro and in vivo. Proteomics data, together with bioinformatics analysis, revealed that DOT1L inhibition altered reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, autophagy activation, and cell fusion-related protein expression. ROS generation increased, and autophagy activation and cell migration ability enhancement were verified subsequently by flow cytometry and transwell migration assays. DOT1L inhibition increased NFATc1 nuclear translocation and NF-κB activation and strengthend osteoclast fusion and expression of resorption-related protein CD9, and MMP9 in osteoclasts derived from RAW264.7. Our findings support a new mechanism of DOT1L-mediated H3K79me2 epigenetic regulation of osteoclast differentiation, implicating DOT1L as a new therapeutic target for osteoclast dysregulation-induced disease.

Project description:Purpose: To characterize the genome-wide distribution of H3K79me2 in human leukemia cell lines treated with the Dot1l inhibitor EPZ004777 or control Methods: We performed Chip-seq for the H3K79me2 on the leukemia cell lines Mutz3, Loucy and Molm14 after 6 days in culture in the presence of 3uM EPZ004777 or DMSO control Results: H3K79me2 is completely erased from key target genes such as the HOXA cluster. Conclusions: Exposure of Mutz3, Loucy and Molm14 to 3uM EPZ004777 erases H3K79 methylation globally as well as on key loci ChIP-Seq for H3K79me2 on human leukemia cell lines exposed for 6 days to the Dot1l inhibitor EPZ004777

Project description:We transduced two individual murine KMT2A-MLLT3 AML samples with DOT1L and three days after sorting for DOT1L+ cells collected for RNA-seq MLL-rearranged leukemias have been previously shown to be dependent on the presence of histone 3 lysine 79 (H3K79) dimethylation on the genomic targets of the fusion, and an inhibitor of the H3K79 methyltransferase DOT1L is in clinical trials for MLL-rearranged leukemia. In order to ask what biologic effects overexpression of DOT1L would have on the H3K79me2 ChIP-Seq profiles and MLL-fusion target gene expression, murine leukemias generated by transplanting MSCV-MLL-AF9-GFP transduced lin- cKit+ Sca1+ bone marrow cells were subjected to overexpression of DOT1L. Cells were sorted into low (low level of DOT1L overexpression), high (high level of DOT1L overexpression) and bulk (entire population) samples, and subjected to H3K79me2 ChIP-Seq (using a drosophila spike in for normalization) and RNA-Seq analysis 3 days after transduction.

Project description:Methylation of H3K79 is associated with chromatin at expressed genes, though it is unclear if this histone modification is required for transcription of all genes. Recent studies suggest that Wnt-responsive genes depend particularly on H3K79 methylation, which is catalyzed by the methyltransferase DOT1L. Human leukemias carrying MLL gene rearrangements show DOT1L-mediated H3K79 methylation and aberrant expression of leukemogenic genes. DOT1L inhibitors reverse these effects but their clinical use is potentially limited by toxicity in Wnt-dependent tissues such as intestinal epithelium. Genome-wide positioning of the H3K79me2 mark in Lgr5+ mouse intestinal stem cells and mature intestinal villus epithelium correlated with mRNA expression levels but not with Wnt-responsive genes per se. Selective Dot1l disruption in Lgr5+ stem cells or in all intestinal epithelial cells eliminated H3K79me2 from the respective compartments, allowing genetic evaluation of DOT1L requirements. Absence of methylated H3K79 did not impair health, intestinal homeostasis or expression of Wnt target genes in crypt epithelium for up to 4 months, despite increased crypt cell apoptosis. Global transcript profiles in Dot1l-null cells were barely altered. Thus, H3K79 methylation is not essential for transcription of Wnt-responsive or other intestinal genes and intestinal toxicity is not imperative when DOT1L is rendered inactive in vivo. Examination of differential gene expression between Dot1l control (Dot1 f/f) and Dot1l mutant (Villin-Cre, Dot1l f/f) villus cells.

Project description:Methylation of histone 3 on lysine 79 (H3K79) is broadly associated with active gene expression in eukaryotes, and the H3K79 methyltransferase DOT1L is indispensable for specific leukemia subtypes like those with MLL-translocations. We found that suppression of the histone deacetylase SIRT1 rescued MLL-AF9 leukemia cells from their dependence on DOT1L. We show that upon DOT1L inhibition, SIRT1 is required for the acquisition of a repressive chromatin state consistent with facultative heterochromatin around MLL-AF9 target genes in leukemia and other genes possess an H3K79me2(hi), H3K9ac(hi), H3K9me2(low) histone modification profile in normal hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Examination of gene expression dynamics with and without drug treatment and RNA interference.
