Gene expression changes caused by YAP overexpression and Nf2 deletion in the developing mouse brain

Project description:The transcriptional coactivator YAP is the key downstream effector of the Hippo pathway. YAP overexpression in the developing mouse brain results in excessive expansion of the neural progenitor pool and severe perturbation of brain development. Nf2/Merlin is a tumor suppressor whose mutations are found in many human cancers. Loss of Merlin during brain development causes overexpansion of the neural progenitor pool. We used microarrays to identify the gene expression changes caused by YAP overexpression and Nf2 deletion. We used a double-transgenic system to overexpress YAP in the developing mouse brain by crossing mice carrying a doxycycline-dependent allele of YAP1-S127A (TetO-YAP1) with those expressing the reverse tetracycline-dependent transactivator rtTA under the control of the neural progenitor-specific Nestin promoter (Nes-rtTA) and feeding the dam with doxycycline-containing food (200 mg/kg) from E7.5. We conditionally deleted Nf2 using the telencephalon-specific Emx1-Cre.

Analysis of the transcriptomic profile of WT mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF WT) and Nf2-knockout mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF Nf2 KO) cell lines

Project description:Merlin is the tumor suppressor protein encoded by the NF2 gene. The expression of Merlin is remarkably decreased in metastatic breast cancer tissues irrespective of the breast cancer subtype. In order to ascribe clinical relevance, we re-capitulated the loss of Merlin in breast cancer cells. Merlin deficiency elicited a markedly invasive phenotype. In order to overcome the challenge of embryonic lethality of a total Nf2-knockout, we generated a unique mammary-specific Nf2-knockout mouse mammary tumor model. Both, the Nf2-knockout mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) and Merlin-deficient breast tumor cells displayed a robust invasive phenotype. Transcriptomic assessment of Nf2-knockout MEFs revealed notable alterations in glutathione transferase and antioxidant networks indicating a role for Merlin in redox biology. This programmatic alteration resonated with the pathways that emerged from breast tumor cells engineered for Merlin deficiency.

Proteomic analysis of the NF2/Merlin Interactome by Proximity Biotinylation

Project description:Neurofibromatosis type 2 is an inherited neoplastic disease consisting of schwannomas, meningiomas, and ependymomas that is caused by inactivation of the tumor suppressor gene NF2. The NF2 gene product, merlin, has no intrinsic catalytic activity; its tumor suppressor function is mediated through the proteins with which it interacts. However, there is no consensus about which merlin interactions are necessary for tumor suppression. We used proximity biotinylation followed by mass spectrometry and direct binding assays to characterize the proteins that associate with merlin and merlin mutants in immortalized Schwann cells. We identified 52 proteins that associate with merlin, including a previously unreported merlin binding protein, ASPP2. Our results identify merlin as a component of mechanosensing signal transduction pathways in cell junctions, in the context of a specific set of structures and molecules through which it acts, in a cell type relevant to schwannoma formation.

Merlin/NF2 Suppresses Tumorigenesis by Inhibiting the E3 Ubiquitin Ligase CRL4DCAF1 in the Nucleus

Project description:Current models imply that the FERM domain protein Merlin, encoded by the tumor suppressor NF2, inhibits mitogenic signaling at or near the plasma membrane. Here, we show that the closed, growth inhibitory form of Merlin accumulates in the nucleus, binds to the E3 ubiquitin ligase CRL4DCAF1, and suppresses its activity. Depletion of DCAF1 blocks the promitogenic effect of inactivation of Merlin. Conversely, enforced expression of a Merlin-insensitive mutant of DCAF1 counteracts the antimitogenic effect of Merlin. Re-expression of Merlin and silencing of DCAF1 induce a similar, tumor-suppressive program of gene expression. Tumor-derived mutations invariably disrupt Merlinâs ability to interact with or inhibit CRL4DCAF1. Finally, depletion of DCAF1 inhibits the hyperproliferation of Schwannoma cells from NF2 patients and suppresses the oncogenic potential of Merlin-deficient tumor cell lines. We propose that Merlin suppresses tumorigenesis by translocating to the nucleus to inhibit CRL4DCAF1. To examine if Merlin controls gene expression through inhibition of CRL4DCAF1, and define the general function of this ligase, we compared the gene expression program activated by expression of Merlin or by depletion of DCAF1 in Merlin-null FC-1801 mouse Schwannoma cells

Gene expression signature regulated by cell density and Merlin/NF2 knockdown in HMLE cells

Project description:Merlin has been implicated in contact-dependent inhibition of proliferation To define genes regulated by Merlin and study their relationship to cell density-dependent gene expression, microarray experiments were performed after Merlin depletion in HMLE cells at both high and low cell densities. HMLE are non-transformed immortalized human mammary epithelial cells (Elenbaas et al., Genes Dev 15, 2001) HMLE cells were transfected with NF2 or scramble (control) siRNAs. 2 days later medium was changed (dense) or cells seeded in sparse conditions and RNA isolated the day after (3 days after siRNA transfection)

Merlin/NF2-loss Driven Tumorigenesis Linked to CRL4(DCAF1)-Mediated Inhibition of the Hippo Pathway Components Lats1 and 2

Project description:Studies in drosophila have suggested that Merlin/NF2 suppresses tumorigenesis by activating upstream components of the Hippo pathway at or near the plasma membrane. In contrast, studies of Merlin-deficient tumor cells have indicated that Merlin suppresses tumorigenesis by entering into the nucleus where it inhibits the E3 ubiquitin ligase CRL4DCAF1. We found that CRL4DCAF1 promotes YAP and TEAD-dependent transcription by ubiquitylating and thereby inhibiting Lats1 and 2 in the nucleus. Genetic epistasis experiments and analysis of tumor-derived missense mutations indicate that this signaling connection sustains the oncogenicity of Merlin-deficient tumor cells. Analysis of clinical samples confirms that this pathway operates in NF2 mutant mesotheliomas, schwannomas and meningiomas. We conclude that de-repressed CRL4DCAF1 controls the output of the Hippo pathway by inhibiting Lats1 and 2 in the nucleus.
