Genome-wide in vivo CRISPR screens identify GATOR1 as a potent tumor suppressor in MYC-driven lymphomagenesis


ABSTRACT: Identifying tumor suppressor genes is predicted to inform on the development of novel strategies for cancer therapy. To identify new lymphoma driving processes that cooperate with oncogenic MYC (which is abnormally highly expressed in ~70% of human cancers) we have used a genome-wide CRISPR knockout screen in Eµ-Myc;Cas9 transgenic hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in vivo. We discovered that loss of any of the GATOR1 complex components - NPRL3, DEPDC5, NPRL2 - significantly accelerated c-MYC-driven lymphoma development in mice. Low expression of the GATOR1 complex genes correlated with poor survival outcomes for human patients with high MYC-expressing cancers. Murine lymphomas lacking GATOR1 were highly sensitive to mTOR inhibitors as a single agent therapy, both in vitro and in vivo. These findings identify inhibition of mTORC1 as a potent tumor suppressive mechanism in c-MYC-driven lymphomagenesis and suggest a new avenue for therapeutic intervention in GATOR1-deficient lymphomas through mTOR inhibition.
