Splicing modulators impair DNA damage response and induce killing of cohesin-mutant MDS/AML

ABSTRACT: Splicing modulation is a promising treatment strategy pursued to date only in splicing-factor mutant cancers; however, its therapeutic potential is poorly understood outside of this context. Like splicing factors, genes encoding components of the cohesin complex are frequently mutated in cancer and are associated with poor outcomes in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here, we show that cohesin mutations are biomarkers of sensitivity to drugs targeting splicing-factor SF3B1 (H3B-8800 and E-7107) and identify drug-induced alterations in splicing of DNA repair genes as the mechanism underlying this sensitivity. We demonstrate that treatment of cohesin-mutant cells with SF3B1 modulators results in impaired DNA damage response, accumulation of DNA damage, and increased sensitivity to a panel of chemotherapeutic agents in vitro and in vivo. Our findings expand the potential therapeutic benefits of SF3B1 splicing modulators to include cohesin-mutant MDS/AML.

RNA sequencing of bone marrow CD34+ cells from myelodysplastic syndrome patients with and without SF3B1 mutation and from healthy controls

Project description:The splicing factor SF3B1 is the most commonly mutated gene in the myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), particularly in patients with refractory anemia with ring sideroblasts (RARS). MDS is a disorder of the hematopoietic stem cell and we thus studied the transcriptome of CD34+ cells from MDS patients with SF3B1 mutations using RNA-sequencing. Genes significantly differentially expressed at the transcript and/or exon level in SF3B1 mutant compared to wildtype cases include genes involved in MDS pathogenesis (ASXL1, CBL), iron homeostasis and mitochondrial metabolism (ALAS2, ABCB7, SLC25A37) and RNA splicing/processing (PRPF8, HNRNPD). Many genes regulated by a DNA damage-induced BRCA1-BCLAF1-SF3B1 protein complex showed differential expression/splicing in SF3B1 mutant cases. Our data indicate that SF3B1 plays a critical role in MDS by affecting the expression and splicing of genes involved in specific cellular processes/pathways, many of which are relevant to the known RARS pathophysiology, suggesting a causal link. RNA-Seq was performed to compare the transcriptome of bone marrow CD34+ cells from eight MDS patients with SF3B1 mutation, four MDS patients with no known splicing mutation and five healthy controls.

STAG2 mutations in leukemia alter cohesin ring function, DNA damage repair, and splicing

Project description:Genome compartmentalization mediated by the cohesin complex plays an essential role in the maintenance of genome integrity and transcriptional regulation. Recurrent somatic mutations in multiple members of the cohesin complex are frequent genetic drivers in several types of cancer, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), but the cellular consequences of cohesin mutations have not been determined and no therapies have been identified with selective efficacy in cohesin-mutant cancers. Using quantitative proteomics and genome-wide genetic screens in genetically engineered models of STAG2-mutant AML, we identify changes in cohesin complex composition and dependency on STAG1, DNA damage repair, master transcription factors, and RNA splicing machinery. Consistent with these findings, loss of STAG2 leads to DNA replication fork stalling and is associated with increased levels of dsDNA breaks and activation of DNA damage checkpoints, as well as aberrant splicing. Genetic or pharmacologic perturbation of DNA damage repair or splicing creates a synthetic vulnerability for cohesin-mutant cells in vitro and in vivo. Finally, STAG2 loss leads to a global reduction in cohesin binding to chromatin and expansion of super-enhancers, and mutant cohesin complexes spatially co-localize with super-enhancer enriched factors, DNA damage and splicing machinery. Our findings inform the biology of cohesins in cancer cells, and highlight novel therapeutic possibilities for cohesin-mutant malignancies.

Cohesin mutations alter DNA damage repair and chromatin structure and create therapeutic vulnerabilities in MDS/AML

Project description:The cohesin complex plays an essential role in chromosome maintenance and transcriptional regulation. Recurrent somatic mutations in the cohesin complex are frequent genetic drivers in cancer including myelodysplatic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here, using genetic dependency screens of STAG2-mutant AML, we identified DNA damage repair and replication as genetic dependencies in cohesin-mutant cells. We demonstrated increased levels of DNA damage and sensitivity of cohesin-mutant cells to PARP inhibition. We developed a mouse model of MDS in which Stag2 mutations arise as clonal secondary lesions in the background of clonal hematopoiesis driven by Tet2 mutations, and demonstrated selective depletion of cohesin-mutant cells with PARP inhibition in vivo. Finally, we demonstrated a shift from STAG2- to STAG1-containing cohesin complexes in cohesin-mutant cells, which is associated with longer DNA loop extrusion, more intermixing of chromatin compartments, and increased interaction with PARP and RPA proteins. Our findings inform the biology and therapeutic opportunities for cohesin-mutant malignancies.

H3B-8800, a novel oral splicing modulator, induces lethality in spliceosome mutant cancers [K562]

Project description:Genomic analyses of cancer have identified recurrent point mutations in the RNA splicing factors SF3B1, U2AF1, and SRSF2 that confer an alteration of function. Although cells bearing these mutations are preferentially dependent on wild-type (WT) spliceosome function, clinical means to therapeutically target the spliceosome do not currently exist. Here, we describe an orally available modulator of the SF3b complex, H3B-8800, which potently and selectively kills spliceosome-mutant epithelial and hematologic malignancies. The effects of H3B-8800 are entirely selective for the Sf3b complex, as evidenced by the identification of drug-resistant cells bearing mutations in Sf3b components. Although H3B-8800 modulates RNA splicing mediated by WT or cancer-associated SF3B1 mutants, its preferential effects on spliceosome-mutant cells is due to preferred retention of short, GC-rich introns, which are enriched in genes encoding a substantial number of spliceosome components. These data demonstrate the therapeutic potential of splicing modulation in spliceosome-mutant cancers.

Cancer-Causing Mutations in SF3B1 Alter Splicing by Disrupting Interaction with SUGP1

Project description:SF3B1, which encodes an essential spliceosomal protein, is frequently mutated in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and many cancers. However, the defect of mutant SF3B1 is unknown. Here, we analyzed RNA-sequencing data from MDS patients and confirmed that SF3B1 mutants use aberrant 3' splice sites. To elucidate the underlying mechanism, we purified complexes containing either wild-type or the hotspot K700E mutant SF3B1, and found that levels of a poorly studied spliceosomal protein, SUGP1, were reduced in mutant spliceosomes. Strikingly, SUGP1 knockdown completely recapitulated the splicing errors, whereas SUGP1 overexpression drove the protein, which our data suggests plays an important role in branchsite recognition, into the mutant spliceosome and partially rescued splicing. Other hotspot SF3B1 mutants showed similar altered splicing and diminished interaction with SUGP1. Our study demonstrates that SUGP1 loss is the sole defect of mutant SF3B1 spliceosomes and, since this defect can be rescued, suggests possibilities for therapeutic intervention.

Novel SF3B1 Deletion Mutations Result in Aberrant RNA Splicing in CLL Patients

Project description:Recurrent mutations in RNA splicing factors SF3B1, U2AF1, and SRSF2 have been reported in hematologic cancers including myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). However, SF3B1 is the only splicing associated gene to be found mutated in CLL and has been shown to induce aberrant splicing. To investigate if any other genomic aberration caused similar transcriptome changes, we clustered RNASeq samples based on an alternative 3’ splice site (ss) pattern previously identified in SF3B1-mutant CLL patients. Out of 215 samples, we identified 37 (17%) with alternative 3’ ss usage, the majority of which harbored known SF3B1 hotspot mutations. Interestingly, 3 patient samples carried previously unreported in-frame deletions in SF3B1 around K700, the most frequent mutation hotspot. To study the functional effects of these deletions, we used various minigenes demonstrating that recognition of canonical 3’ ss and alternative branchsite are required for aberrant splicing, as observed for SF3B1 p.K700E. The common mechanism of action of these deletions and substitutions result in similar sensitivity of primary cells towards splicing inhibitor E7107. Altogether, these data demonstrate that novel SF3B1 in-frame deletion events identified in CLL result in aberrant splicing, a common biomarker in spliceosome-mutant cancers.

Patient-specific MDS-RS iPSCs define the mis-spliced transcript repertoire and chromatin landscape of SF3B1-mutant HSPCs

Project description:SF3B1 K700E is the most frequent mutation in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), but the mechanisms by which it drives MDS pathogenesis remain unclear. We derived a panel of 18 genetically matched SF3B1 K700E- and SF3B1 WT-induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from patients with MDS with ring sideroblasts (MDS-RS) harboring isolated SF3B1 K700E mutations and performed RNA and ATAC sequencing in purified CD34+/CD45+ hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) derived from them. We developed a novel computational framework integrating splicing with transcript usage and gene expression analyses and derived a SF3B1 K700E splicing signature consisting of 59 splicing events linked to 34 genes, which associates with the SF3B1 mutational status of primary MDS patient cells. The chromatin landscape of SF3B1 K700E HSPCs showed increased priming toward the megakaryocyte- erythroid lineage. Transcription factor motifs enriched in chromatin regions more accessible in SF3B1 K700E cells included, unexpectedly, motifs of the TEAD family. TEAD expression and transcriptional activity were upregulated in SF3B1-mutant iPSC-HSPCs, in support of a Hippo pathway-independent role of TEAD as a potential novel transcriptional regulator of SF3B1 K700E cells. This study provides a comprehensive characterization of the transcriptional and chromatin landscape of SF3B1 K700E HSPCs and nominates novel mis-spliced genes and transcriptional programs with putative roles in MDS-RS disease biology.
