Non-canonical PRC1.1 targets active genes independent of H3K27me3 and is essential for leukemogenesis

ABSTRACT: Polycomb proteins are classical regulators of stem cell self-renewal and cell lineage commitment and are frequently deregulated in cancer. Here we find that the non-canonical PRC1.1 complex, as identified by mass spectrometry-based proteomics, is critically important for human leukemic stem cells. Downmodulation of PRC1.1 complex members, like the DNA-binding subunit KDM2B, strongly reduces cell proliferation in vitro and delays or even abrogates leukemogenesis in vivo in humanized xenograft models. PRC1.1 components are significantly overexpressed in primary AML CD34+ cells. Besides a set of genes that is co-targeted by PRC1 and PRC2, ChIP-seq studies show that PRC1.1 also binds a distinct set of genes that are devoid of H3K27me3 suggesting a gene regulatory role independent of PRC2. This set encompasses genes involved in metabolism, which have transcriptionally active chromatin profiles. These data indicate that PRC1.1 controls distinct gene clusters involved in unique cell biological processes required for leukemic cell viability.

K562 cells were transduced with lentiviral GFP-fusion vectors encoding GFP-CBX2, PCGF1-GPF, PCGF2-GFP, PCGF4-GFP, GFP-RING1A or GFP-RING1B. K562 cells expressing GFP-fusions at relatively low levels were sorted and expanded and subsequently crosslinked. ChIP reactions were performed using the following antibodies: anti-GFP (ab290, Abcam), anti-H3K27me3 (07-449, Millipore), anti-H3K4me3 (ab8580, Abcam), anti-H2AK119ub (D27C4, Cell Signaling Technology), and anti-KDM2B (ab137547, Abcam). Furthermore, ChIP reactions were performed using primary AML CD34+ and Peripheral Blood (PB) CD34+ cells using anti-H3K27me3 (07-449, Millipore), anti-H3K4me3 (ab8580, Abcam), anti-H2AK119ub (D27C4, Cell Signaling Technology), anti-KDM2B (ab137547, Abcam).

The SS18-SSX oncoprotein hijacks KDM2B-PRC1.1 to drive synovial sarcoma [RNA-seq]

Project description:Gene fusions arising from chromosomal translocations are key oncogenic drivers in soft tissue sarcomas but little is known about how they exert their oncogenic effects. Our study explores the molecular mechanisms by which the SS18-SSX fusion oncoprotein subverts epigenetic mechanisms of gene regulation to drive synovial sarcoma. Using functional genomics, we identify KDM2B – a histone demethylase and core component of a non-canonical Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1.1) – as selectively required for sustaining synovial sarcoma cell transformation. SS18-SSX physically interacts with PRC1.1 and co-associates with SWI/SNF and KDM2B complexes on unmethylated CpG islands genome-wide. Via KDM2B, SS18-SSX binds and aberrantly activates expression of a series of developmentally regulated transcription factors that would otherwise be targets of polycomb-mediated repression, which is restored upon KDM2B depletion leading to irreversible mesenchymal differentiation. Thus, SS18-SSX de-regulates developmental programs to drive transformation by hijacking a transcriptional repressive complex to aberrantly activate gene expression.

BCOR and BCORL1 Mutations Drive Epigenetic Reprogramming and Oncogenic Signaling by Unlinking PRC1.1 from Target Genes

Project description:Polycomb repressive epigenetic complexes are recurrently dysregulated in cancer. Unlike polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), the role of PRC1 in oncogenesis and therapy resistance is not well defined. Here, we demonstrate that highly recurrent mutations of the PRC1 subunits BCOR and BCORL1 in leukemia disrupt assembly of a non-canonical PRC1.1 complex, thereby selectively unlinking the RING-PCGF enzymatic core from the chromatin targeting auxiliary subcomplex. As a result, BCOR-mutated PRC1.1 is localized to chromatin but lacks repressive activity, leading to epigenetic reprogramming and transcriptional activation at target loci. We define a set of functional targets that drive aberrant oncogenic signaling programs in PRC1.1 mutated cells and primary patient samples. Activation of these PRC1.1 targets in BCOR-mutated cells confers acquired resistance to treatment while sensitizing to targeted kinase inhibition. Our study thus reveals a novel epigenetic mechanism that explains PRC1.1 tumor suppressive activity and identifies a therapeutic strategy in PRC1.1 mutated cancer.

A Non-canonical BCOR-PRC1.1 Complex Represses Differentiation Programs in Human ESCs

Project description:Polycomb group proteins regulate self-renewal and differentiation in many stem cell systems. When assembled into two canonical complexes, PRC1 and PRC2, they sequentially deposit H3K27me3 and H2AK119ub histone marks and establish repressive chromatin, referred to as Polycomb domains. Non-canonical PRC1 complexes retain RING1/ RNF2 E3-ubiquitin ligases but have unique sets of accessory subunits. How these non-canonical complexes recognize and regulate their gene targets remains poorly understood. Here, we show that the BCL6 co-repressor (BCOR), a member of the PRC1.1 complex, is critical for maintaining primed pluripotency in human embryonic stem cells (ESCs). BCOR depletion leads to the erosion of Polycomb domains at key developmental loci and the initiation of differentiation along endoderm and mesoderm lineages. The C terminus of BCOR regulates the assembly and targeting of the PRC1.1 complex, while the N terminus contributes to BCOR-PRC1.1 repressor function. Our findings advance understanding of Polycomb targeting and repression in ESCs and could apply broadly across developmental systems.

BCL6 corepressor contributes to Th17 cell formation by inhibiting Th17 fate suppressors

Project description:CD4+ T helper 17 (Th17) cells protect vertebrate hosts from extracellular pathogens at mucosal surfaces. Th17 cells form from naïve precursors when signals from the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) and certain cytokine receptors induce the expression of the RORγt transcription factor, which activates a set of Th17-specific genes. Using T cell-specific loss-of-function experiments we find that two components of the Polycomb Repressive Complex 1.1 (PRC1.1), BCL6 corepressor (BCOR) and KDM2B, which helps target the complex to unmethylated CpG DNA islands, are required for optimal Th17 cell formation in mice after Streptococcus pyogenes infection. Genome-wide expression and BCOR chromatin immunoprecipitation studies revealed that BCOR directly represses Lef1, Runx2, and Dusp4, whose products inhibit Th17 differentiation. Together, the results suggest that PRC1.1 components, BCOR and KDM2B, work together to enhance Th17 cell formation by repressing Th17 fate suppressors.

Kdm2b regulates somatic reprogramming through variant PRC1 complex dependent function [RNA-seq]

Project description:Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) plays essential roles in cell fate determination. Recent studies have found that the composition of mammalian PRC1 is particularly varied and complicated, whereas the function of such variant PRC1 complexes on cell fate determination remains unknown. Here we show that Kdm2b, which recruits a variant PRC1 complex (PRC1.1) to CpG islands (CGIs), elevates Oct4 induced somatic reprogramming. Interaction with PRC1 is critical for Kdm2b’s promotion on the process of induced pluripotency. Furthermore, we find that bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) repress Oct4/Kdm2b induced somatic reprogramming selectively. Mechanistically, BMP-Smad pathway attenuates PRC1.1 occupation and H2AK119 ubiquitination on development genes, resulting in the release of meso-endoderm factors such as Sox17 and suppression of somatic reprogramming. These observations reveal that PRC1.1 participates in the establishment of pluripotency as well as cellular differentiation and identify BMP signal as a modulator of PRC1.1 function.
