Project description:Mll2 (ALR) is a histone 3 lysine 4 trimethyltransferase to function as gene activation.In our study, we found that Mll2 is vital for proper control of proliferation and lineage differentiation of mouse ESCs, particularly towards the cardiac-specific lineages. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression to compare the difference after Mll2 knockdown in E14 cell lines. E14 cells were infected with lentiviruses expressing short hairpin RNA (shRNA) for Mll2 for 24 hours, and then puromycin was added at 2mg/ml to select for 5 days. Then collet samples of control and Mll2 knockdown E14 cells for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Trimethylation of histone 3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) at promoters of actively transcribed genes is a universal epigenetic mark and a key product of Trithorax-Group action. Here we show that Mll2, one of the six Set1/Trithorax-type H3K4 methyltransferases in mammals, is required for trimethylation of bivalent promoters in mouse embryonic stem cells. Mll2 is bound to bivalent promoters but also to most active promoters, which do not require Mll2 for H3K4me3 or mRNA expression. In contrast, the Set1 complex (Set1C) subunit Cxxc1 is primarily bound to active but not bivalent promoters. This indicates that bivalent promoters rely on Mll2 for H3K4me3 whereas active promoters have more than one bound H3K4 methyltransferase including Set1C. Removal of Mll1, sister to Mll2, had almost no effect on any promoter unless Mll2 was also removed indicating functional back-up between these enzymes. Except for a subset, loss of H3K4me3 on bivalent promoters did not prevent responsiveness to retinoic acid thereby arguing against a priming model for bivalency. In contrast, we propose that Mll2 is the pioneer trimethyltransferase for promoter definition in the naM-CM-/ve epigenome and Polycomb-Group action on bivalent promoters blocks premature establishment of active, Set1C bound, promoters. ChIP-Seq to study MLL2 function using H3K4me3 (12 samples), H3K27me3 (4 samples), Pol2 (1 sample) or GFP (7 samples) antibody, and 6 RNA-Seq profiles

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.

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.

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) (collectively, over 70% of all lymphoma diagnoses), these mutations are highly recurrent and appear early during transformation, possibly in pre-malignant precursors. Here we show that FL- and DLBCL-associated MLL2 mutations impair its enzymatic activity and lead to diminished global H3K4 methylation in normal 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 increased percentages and numbers of GC B cells, which feature a distinct transcriptional profile defined by the enrichment of cell-cycle regulatory and B-cell receptor signaling genes. Consistently, Mll2-deficient B cells exhibit proliferative advantage and accumulation in the S phase of the cell cycle, which is influenced by the number of cell divisions. While GC-specific loss of Mll2 was not sufficient to initiate malignant transformation, compound Mll2-deficient/BCL2-transgenic mice displayed an increased incidence of clonal lymphoproliferations resembling the features of human FL and DLBCL. These findings suggest that early MLL2 loss favors BCL2-induced 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.

Project description:Global Run-On has been performed in MLL2 F/F and FC/FC MEF cells. The aim of the experiment is to test how the lack of MLL2 affects nascent RNA transcription. Four samples were analyzed - 2 independent replicates. The experiments were performed using immortalized mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) in which both MLL2 alleles were targeted by the loxp system (F/F cells). Tamoxifen treatment of the F/F cells for 24 hours results in the excision of both MLL2 alleles (FC/FC cells).

Eradication of MLL2-deficient cells may represent a rational therapeutic approach targeting early tumorigenic events. Murine germinal center B cells (B220+CD95+PNA+) were sorted from the spleen of conditional Mll2 knock-out, Mll2 heterozygous and Mll2 wild type mice (crossed with CD19-Cre or Cg1-Cre deletor strains) and sacrificed at day 12 after immunization with sheep red blood cells (SRBC)(n=3 mice per genotype). Total RNA was extracted from single cell suspensions and processed according to the Ovation RNA Amplification System and Encore® Biotin Module protocols (both from NuGEN). Samples were analyzed on Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 arrays.
