Apobec-Mediated Retroviral Hypermutation In Vivo is Dependent on Mouse Strain

ABSTRACT: Retroviruses cause lifelong infections resulting from their ability to thwart innate immunity. The Apobec family of cytidine deaminases are part of the innate immune response that recognizes and mutates foreign nucleic acids, including those from multiple viruses. Multiple retroviral antagonists of Apobecs have been identified, including mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV)-encoded Rem protein. Previous experiments have shown that Rem-null MMTV or closely related TBLV proviruses from BALB/c tumors accumulate G-to-A and C-to-T mutations typical of Apobecs compared to wild-type proviruses expressing Rem. The difference in mutations between Rem-expressing and non-expressing MMTV strains largely disappeared in mice lacking the Apobec family member, activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID). These results suggested that Rem is an AID antagonist. In this study, we attempted to study AID-mediated mutations of TBLV proviruses lacking Rem expression obtained from tumors in C57BL/6 (B6) wild-type and AID-knockout backgrounds. Surprisingly, no differences in G-to-A mutations were observed in TBLV proviruses regardless of Rem expression, yet such mutations were significantly reduced in proviruses obtained from mA3/AID-double knockout mice relative to those from wild-type B6 or AID-knockout mice. Many cellular mRNAs involving the innate immune response, but not Apobecs, were elevated in the absence relative to the presence of Rem expression on the B6 AID-knockout background. These results revealed that Apobec-mediated mutagenesis is dependent on mouse strain and suggested a second means of Rem-dependent immune evasion.

B-cell tumor development in Tet2-deficient mice

Project description:The TET2 gene encodes an α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase able to oxidize 5-methylcytosine into 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, which is a step toward active DNA demethylation. TET2 is frequently mutated in myeloid malignancies but also in B- and T-cell malignancies. TET2 somatic mutations are also identified in healthy elderly individuals with clonal hematopoiesis. Tet2-deficient mouse models showed widespread hematological differentiation abnormalities, including myeloid, T-cell, and B-cell malignancies. We show here that, similar to what is observed with constitutive Tet2-deficient mice, B-cell-specific Tet2 knockout leads to abnormalities in the B1-cell subset and a development of B-cell malignancies after long latency. Aging Tet2-deficient mice accumulate clonal CD19+ B220low immunoglobulin M+ B-cell populations with transplantable ability showing similarities to human chronic lymphocytic leukemia, including CD5 expression and sensitivity to ibrutinib-mediated B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling inhibition. Exome sequencing of Tet2-/- malignant B cells reveals C-to-T and G-to-A mutations that lie within single-stranded DNA-specific activation-induced deaminase (AID)/APOBEC (apolipoprotein B messenger RNA editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide-like) cytidine deaminases targeted motif, as confirmed by the lack of a B-cell tumor in compound Tet2-Aicda-deficient mice. Finally, we show that Tet2 deficiency accelerates and exacerbates T-cell leukemia/lymphoma 1A-induced leukemogenesis. Together, our data establish that Tet2 deficiency predisposes to mature B-cell malignancies, which development might be attributed in part to AID-mediated accumulating mutations and BCR-mediated signaling. This accession concerns 46 transcriptomic experiments with Affymetrix Mouse 430-2 array..

APOBEC3s induce mutations during the repair of CRISPR-Cas9-generated DNA breaks.

Project description:APOBEC-AID family of cytidine deaminase prefers single-stranded nucleic acids for cytidine to uracil deamination. Single-stranded nucleic acids are commonly involved in the DNA repair system for breaks generated by CRISPR-Cas9. Here, we show in human cells that APOBEC3s can trigger the cytidine deamination of single-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides, which ultimately results in base substitution mutations in genomic DNA through the homology-directed repair (HDR) of Cas9-generated double-strand breaks . In addition, the APOBEC3-catalyzed deamination in genomic single-stranded DNA formed during the repair of Cas9 nickase-generated single-strand breaks can be further processed to yield mutations mainly involving insertions or deletions (indels). Mechanistically, both APOBEC3-mediated deamination and DNA repair proteins play important roles in the generation of these indels. Correspondingly, optimizing conditions for the repair of CRISPR-Cas9-generated DNA breaks, such as using double-stranded donors in HDR or temporarily suppressing endogenous APOBEC3s, can substantially repress these unwanted mutations in genomic DNA.

An APOBEC Cytidine Deaminase Mutagenesis in Human Cancers

Project description:Reprinted from Roberts et al. "An APOBEC cytidine deaminase mutagenesis pattern is widespread in human cancers", Nature Genetics, 45:970-976, 2013, with permission of Nature Publishing Group: Recent studies indicate that a subclass of APOBEC cytidine deaminases, which convert cytosine to uracil during RNA editing and retrovirus or retrotransposon restriction, may induce mutation clusters in human tumors. We show here that throughout cancer genomes APOBEC-mediated mutagenesis is pervasive and correlates with APOBEC mRNA levels. Mutation clusters in whole-genome and exome data sets conformed to the stringent criteria indicative of an APOBEC mutation pattern. Applying these criteria to 954,247 mutations in 2,680 exomes from 14 cancer types, mostly from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), showed a significant presence of the APOBEC mutation pattern in bladder, cervical, breast, head and neck, and lung cancers, reaching 68% of all mutations in some samples. Within breast cancer, the HER2-enriched subtype was clearly enriched for tumors with the APOBEC mutation pattern, suggesting that this type of mutagenesis is functionally linked with cancer development. The APOBEC mutation pattern also extended to cancer-associated genes, implying that ubiquitous APOBEC-mediated mutagenesis is carcinogenic.

DNA methylation profile for BL2 and BL2 AID-/- cell lines

Project description:AID (activation-induced cytidine deaminase) is expressed at low levels in many tissue types but is most highly expressed in germinal center B cells where it deaminates cytidine to uracil during somatic hypermutation and class switch recombination of the immunoglobulin genes. In addition to this critical role in immune diversification, aberrant targeting of AID contributes to oncogenic point mutations and chromosome translocations associated with B cell malignancies. Thus, to explore a role for AID in DNA demethylation in B cell lymphoma, we performed genome-wide methylation profiling in BL2 and AID-deficient (AID-/-) BL2 cell lines (Burkitt lymphoma that can be induced to express high levels of AID).

APOBEC3C, a perinucleolar protein induced by genotoxins, is recruited to DNA damage sites

Project description:The human genome contains 11 APOBEC (Apolipoprotein B mRNA Editing Catalytic Polypeptide-like) cytidine deaminases classified into four families. These proteins function mainly in innate antiviral immunity and can also restrict endogenous retrotransposable element multiplication. The present study focuses on APOBEC3C (A3C), a member of the APOBEC3 sub-family. Some APOBEC3 proteins use their enzymatic activity on genomic DNA, inducing mutations and DNA damage, while other members facilitate DNA repair. Our results show that A3C is highly expressed in cells treated with DNA damaging agents. Its expression is regulated by p53. In addition, we provide the A3C interactome in both normal conditions and in cells exposed to the genotoxin etoposide. Most A3C interacting partners are proteins involved in RNA metabolism and some in DNA repair. Our data also indicate that A3C overexpression is detrimental to mammalian cells and we show that this protein is located around the nucleolus and at laser-damaged DNA sites.

Convergent Sense/Antisense Transcription At Intragenic Super-Enhancers Targets AID-initiated Genomic Instability

Project description:Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) initiates both somatic hypermutation (SHM) for antibody affinity maturation and DNA breakage for antibody class switch recombination (CSR) via transcription-dependent cytidine deamination of single stranded DNA targets. While largely specific for immunglobulin genes, AID also acts on a limited set of off-targets, generating oncogenic translocations and mutations that contribute to B cell lymphoma. How AID is recruited to off-targets has been a long-standing mystery. Based on deep GRO-Seq studies of mouse and human B lineage cells activated for CSR or SHM, we report that most robust AID off-target translocations occur within highly focal regions of target genes in which sense and antisense transcription converge. Moreover, we found that such AID-targeting "convergent" transcription arises from antisense transcription that emanates from Super-Enhancers within sense transcribed gene bodies. Our findings provide a mechanistic explanation for AID off-targeting to a small subset of mostly lineage-specific genes in activated B cells. We performed GRO-Seq and H3K27Ac ChIP-Seq with different B lineage cell types and MEF cells to find the signatures associated with AID targeting.

Genome-wide AID target loci in BL2 cells

Project description:Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) is required for both somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class-switch recombination (CSR) in activated B cells. AID is also known to target non-immunoglobulin genes and introduce mutations or chromosomal translocations, eventually causing tumors. To identify as-yet-unknown AID targets, we screened early AID-induced DNA breaks using two independent genome-wide approaches. Along with known AID targets, this screen identified a set of novel genes (SNHG3, MALAT1, BCL7A, and CUX1), and confirmed that these new loci accumulated mutations as high as Ig locus after AID activation. Moreover, these genes share three important characteristics with the immunoglobulin gene: translocations in tumors, repetitive sequences and the epigenetic modification of chromatin by H3K4 trimethylation in the vicinity of cleavage sites.
