Deletion of UTX, a histone demethylase interacting with MLL2, in three patients with Kabuki syndrome.

ABSTRACT: Kabuki syndrome (KS) is a rare multiple congenital anomalies/mental retardation (MCA/MR) syndrome described in 19811,2. In 2010, exome sequencing identified MLL2 mutations in patients with KS3. Since then, 5 studies identified a mutation in MLL2 in 56-75,6% of KS patients3-7. Here, we describe 2 KS and 1 KS-like patient with a de novo partial or complete deletion of UTX, a histone demethylase interacting with MLL2 in gene regulation. UTX locates on the X chromosome and we showed that the X chromosome with the deleted copy of UTX is preferentially inactivated despite the fact that UTX escapes X-inactivation. This study unveiled deletion of UTX as a second cause of KS and highlights the growing role of histone methylase/demethylase in MCA/MR syndrome.

Deletion of UTX, a histone demethylase interacting with MLL2, in three patients with Kabuki syndrome.

This study unveiled deletion of UTX as a second cause of KS and highlights the growing role of histone methylase/demethylase in MCA/MR syndrome. Two patients were analysed by Agilent array CGH 244K (AMADID: 014693) Three patients DNA were analyzed by CGH on custom targeted array 44K (AMADID: 032482). Two of them were initially analyzed using 244K Whole genome Arrays (AMADID: 014693). One third patient was selected given suspicion of deletion in one of the targeted gene (KDM6A) as amplification of some exons performed in our lab to sequence this gene failed.

Alternative mRNA splicing controls functions of the human H3K27 demethylase UTX/KDM6A

Project description:The UTX/KDM6A gene encodes the UTX histone H3K27 demethylase, which plays an important role in mammalian development and is frequently mutated in cancers and particularly, in urothelial cancers. Using BioID technique, we explored the interactome of different UTX isoforms.

Identification of MLL2 regulated genes in germinal center B cells

Project description:Somatic mutations of the MLL2 methyltransferase gene represent a common genetic lesion in multiple cancer types. In diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and follicular lymphoma (FL), these mutations are highly recurrent and occur early during tumorigenesis, suggesting a central role in transformation. Here we show that FL/DLBCL-associated MLL2 mutations impair its enzymatic activity and lead to diminished global H3K4 methylation in germinal center (GC) B cells and DLBCL, consistent with the enrichment of MLL2 binding at enhancer and promoter regions marked by mono- and tri-methylation. Conditional deletion of Mll2 early during B cell development, but not after initiation of the GC reaction, leads to an increase in GC B cells, whose transcriptional profile is enriched in cell-cycle regulatory and B-cell receptor signaling genes. Consistently, Mll2-deficient B cells exhibit proliferative advantage ex vivo. Loss of Mll2 combined with BCL2 deregulation, mimicking FL/DLBCL pathogenesis, leads to an increased incidence of clonal lymphoproliferations resembling the features of the human tumors. These findings suggest that early MLL2 loss facilitates lymphomagenesis by remodeling the epigenetic landscape of the cancer precursor cells. Eradication of MLL2-deficient cells may represent a rational therapeutic approach targeting early tumorigenic events. ChIP-seq analysis of MLL2 bound regions and histone methylation (H3K4me3, H3K4me1) in normal human germinal center B cells.

T cell UTX promotes Tfh-mediated clearance of persistent virus infection

Project description:Epigenetic changes, including histone methylation, control T cell differentiation and memory formation, though the enzymes that mediate these processes are not clear. We show that UTX, a histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27) demethylase, promotes the generation of T follicular helper (Tfh) cells, a CD4+ T cell subset essential for B cell antibody generation and clearance of chronic viral infections. Mice with T cell specific UTX deletion (UTX TKO mice) had fewer Tfh cells, showed defective germinal center formation, lacked virus-specific IgG production, and were unable to resolve chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus infection. In UTX TKO T cells, decreased expression of IL-6R±, and other Tfh-related loci, was associated with increased H3K27 methylation. Additionally, Turner Syndrome subjects, who are predisposed to chronic ear infections, have reduced UTX expression in immune cells and decreased Tfh frequency. Thus, we identify a critical link between UTX in T cells and immunity to infection. Mice were infected with chronic LCMV and sorted for Tfh on day 21 pi (sorted for: CD4+CXCR5+CD62Llo T cell). ChIP-Seq and RNA-Seq on WT and Utx KO cells.

Mutations in histone and other genes in MLL2-impaired human and mouse cells

Project description:We used human or mouse MLL2-impaired cells (including a human DSET MLL2 cell line,) as well as their parental controls, and measured mutations in histones and a few other genes that were affected in our gH2AX ChIP-Seq experiments. We found that cells lacking or having impaired MLL2 were presenting statistically signifficant, higher levels of mutations at the tested genes as compared to their parental controls.
