A minimal DNA sequence within the ARF promoter represses p16INK4A expression via long-range chromatin interaction [Capture-C]

ABSTRACT: Loss of function of CDKN2A/B, also known as INK4/ARF [encoding for p16INK4A, p15INK4B, and p14ARF (mouse p19Arf)]), confers susceptibility to cancers, whereas its up-regulation during organismal aging provokes cellular senescence and tissue degenerative disorders. To better understand molecular regulation of the locus, we knocked P2A-mCherry into the C-terminus of p16INK4A, and this construct faithfully recapitulated the endogenous transcription. Using this reporter cell line, we performed a noncoding tiling pooled screening targeting open chromatin regions spanning the approximately 500-kb region in the topological associated domain that includes p16INK4A. In both Cas9- and dCas9-KRAB–mediated screenings, we identified a 42-bp DNA sequence within exon 1β of the ARF gene, as the repressive element controlling p16INK4A expression. Chromatin conformation capture indicated that inactivating this element abolished the physical interaction between p15INK4B and ARF, thereby abolishing p16INK4A repression. This study has revealed a new mechanism of transcriptional regulation of p16INK4A by long-range chromatin interaction.

Transcriptional targets of p16INK4A in melanoma

Project description:Expression profiles of 17 melanoma cell lines were analysed to identify genes differentially expressed between cell lines harbouring wild-type or mutant p16INK4A. Relevant paper: Pavey et al. (2007). Note: all of these cell lines contained wild-type p14ARF, so that the transcriptional effects of p16INk4A could be determined without interference from p14ARF.

CDK6 degradation is counteracted by p16INK4A and p18INK4C in AML

Project description:Cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) represents a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of certain subtypes of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). CDK4/6 kinase inhibitors have been widely studied in many cancer types and their effects may be limited by primary and secondary resistance mechanisms. CDK4/6 degraders, which eliminate kinase dependent and kinase independent effects, have been suggested as alternative therapeutic option. We show that efficacy of the CDK6 specific protein degrader BSJ-03-123 varies among AML subtypes and depends on low expression of the INK4 proteins p16INK4A and p18INK4C. INK4 protein levels are significantly elevated in MLL-AF9+ compared to AML1-ETO+ cells, contributing to the different CDK6 degradation efficacy. We demonstrate that CDK6 complexes containing p16INK4A or p18INK4C are protected from BSJ-mediated degradation and that INK4 levels define the proliferative response to CDK6 degradation. These findings define INK4 proteins as predictive marker for CDK6 degradation – targeted therapies in AML.

Circular ANRIL isoforms switch from repressors to activators of p15/CDKN2B expression during RAF1 oncogene-induced senescence

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are major regulators of gene expression and cell fate. The INK4 locus encodes the tumour suppressor proteins p15INK4b, p16INK4a and p14ARF required for cell cycle arrest and whose expression increases during senescence. ANRIL is a ncRNA antisense to the p15 gene. In proliferative cells, ANRIL prevents senescence by repressing INK4 genes through the recruitment of Polycomb-group proteins. In models of replicative and RASval12 oncogene-induced senescence (OIS), the expression of ANRIL and Polycomb proteins decreases, thus allowing INK4 derepression. Here, we found in a model of RAF1 OIS that ANRIL expression rather increases, due in particular to an increased stability. This led us to search for circular ANRIL isoforms, as circular RNAs are rather stable species. We found that the expression of two circular ANRIL increases in several OIS models (RAF1, MEK1 and BRAF). In proliferative cells, they repress p15 expression, while in RAF1 OIS, they promote full induction of p15, p16 and p14ARF expression. Further analysis of one of these circular ANRIL shows that it interacts with Polycomb proteins and decreases EZH2 Polycomb protein localization and H3K27me3 at the p15 and p16 promoters, respectively. We propose that changes in the ratio between Polycomb proteins and circular ANRIL isoforms allow these isoforms to switch from repressors of p15 gene to activators of all INK4 genes in RAF1 OIS. Our data reveal that regulation of ANRIL expression depends on the senescence inducer and underline the importance of circular ANRIL in the regulation of INK4 gene expression and senescence.

Post-GWAS functional analysis identifies CUX1 as a regulator of p16INK4a and cellular senescence

Project description:Accumulation of senescent cells with age is believed to be an important driver of aging and age-related diseases. However, the underlying mechanisms and the signaling pathways that regulate senescence remain elusive. In this report, we couple high throughput (HTP) mapping of disease-associated functional SNPs (fSNPs) with proteomics analysis of fSNP-binding regulatory proteins to dissect the CDKN2A/B locus, a locus known to be associated with multiple age-related diseases, as well as overall human longevity. We demonstrate that the homeodomain transcription factor CUX1 specifically binds to a fSNP (rs1537371) associated with atherosclerosis within the CDKN2A/B locus. Although it binds at a considerable distance (> 100 kb), CUX1 is shown to regulate the CDKN2A/B encoded genes p14ARF, p15INK4b, p16INK4a, and ANRIL in endothelial cells (ECs). In-depth analysis demonstrates that endothelial CUX1 expression correlates with telomeric length and is induced by both DNA-damaging agents and oxidative stress. Moreover, induction of CUX1 expression triggers both replicative and stress-induced premature senescence via activating p16INK4A expression. Consistent with these findings, we also detect elevated expression of CUX1 and p16INK4A in the plaques of patients with carotid artery disease. Our HTP strategy therefore identifies CUX1 as a regulator of p16INK4A expression and endothelial senescence and a potential therapeutic target for atherosclerosis and other age-related diseases.

Expression data from Bmi1-null c-Kit+Sca-1+Lineage marker- (KSL) hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells

Project description:Bmi1 is a component of polycomb repressive complex 1 and its role in the inheritance of the stemness of adult somatic stem cells has been well characterized. Bmi1 maintains the self-renewal capacity of adult stem cells, at least partially, by repressing the Ink4a/Arf locus that encodes a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, p16Ink4a, and a tumor suppressor, p19Arf 14. Deletion of both Ink4a and Arf in Bmi1-deficient mice substantially restored the defective self-renewal capacity of HSCs and neural stem cells. Purified KSL cells from BM of wild-type, Bmi1-/-, Ink4a-/-Arf-/-, and Bmi1-/- Ink4a-/-Arf-/- mice were subjected to RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
