PU.1-dependent enhancer inhibition separates clonal hematopoiesis from malignant transformation (RNA-Seq)


ABSTRACT: Hematopoietic stem cells sustain life-long blood production. While they are the known cellular origin of aging-associated myeloid malignancies, such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML), mechanisms driving their malignant transformation have remained elusive. Epigenetic dysregulation following acquired loss-of-function mutations of DNA methyl-cytosine dioxygenase Ten-Eleven Translocation-2 (TET2) occurs frequently in the elderly leading to cytosine hypermethylation in and around DNA binding sites of master transcription factors, including PU.1. Here we show that Tet2 deficient hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) undergo malignant transformation upon compromised PU.1 gene regulation. Leukemic stem and progenitor cells show hypermethylation at PU.1 binding sites and fail to activate PU.1-depenent myeloid enhancers, and are hallmarked by a defined signature of impaired genes shared with human AML. Our study demonstrates that Tet2 and PU.1 cooperate in suppressing leukemogenesis in HSPC and establishes a methylation sensitive PU.1-dependent gene network as a unifying feature in acute myeloid leukemia.
