Comprehensive analysis of genomic G-quadruplex forming oligonucleotides homologous to NHEIII1 of c-MYC promoter on leukemia cell growth inhibition and c-MYC expression

ABSTRACT: The c-MYC onco-protein regulates a large array of genes playing an important role in basic cell functions. Because of its central role in growth regulation, c-MYC expression must be tightly regulated. The NHEIII1 located upstream of the P1 promoter regulates up to 80% of c-MYC transcription, and includes a C/G rich region (Pu27) which forms a G-quadruplex structure. We have identified seventeen genomic G-quadruplex-forming motifs which have more than 90% identity with Pu27 found on different chromosomes throughout the human genome. Of thirteen members of the Pu27 family tested, all interact specifically with NHEIII1 sequence and inhibit leukemic cells proliferation to differing degrees. Further characterization of three Pu27 homologous sequences (Pu5-, Pu9- and Pu27) reveals a dose/time dependent response on growth inhibition in four leukemia cell lines and down regulation of c-MYC at RNA and protein level. The three Pu27 family members selectively alter expression of genes involved in cell cycle progression/regulation, DNA damage/repair and histone modification. In conclusion, we have identified sixteen genomic G-quadruplex-forming sequences homologous to Pu27 of c-MYC promoter sharing the same structure and function. It is likely that these sequences play important biologic roles in c-MYC regulation and provide an ideal tool for targeted cancer therapy.

G-quadruplex DNA structure is a positive regulator of MYC transcription

Project description:DNA structure can regulate genome function. Four-stranded DNA G-quadruplex (G4) structures have been implicated in transcriptional regulation; however, previous studies have not directly addressed the role of an individual G4 within its endogenous cellular context. Using CRISPR to genetically abrogate endogenous G4 structure folding, we directly interrogate the G4 found within the upstream regulatory region of the critical human MYC oncogene. G4 loss leads to suppression of MYC transcription from the P1 promoter that is mediated by the deposition of a de novo nucleosome alongside alterations in RNA polymerase recruitment. We also show that replacement of the endogenous MYC G4 with a different G4 structure from the KRAS oncogene restores G4 folding and MYC transcription. Moreover, we demonstrate that the MYC G4 structure itself, rather than its sequence, recruits transcription factors and histone modifiers. Overall, our work establishes that G4 structures are important features of transcriptional regulation that coordinate recruitment of key chromatin proteins and the transcriptional machinery through interactions with DNA secondary structure, rather than primary sequence.

RNA G-quadruplex secondary structure promotes alternative splicing via the RNA binding protein hnRNPF

Project description:It is generally thought that splicing factors regulate alternative splicing through binding to RNA consensus sequences. In addition to these linear motifs, RNA secondary structure is emerging as an important layer in splicing regulation. Here we demonstrate that RNA elements with G-quadruplex forming capacity promote exon inclusion. Destroying G-quadruplex forming capacity while keeping G-tracts intact abrogates exon inclusion. Analysis of RNA binding protein footprints revealed that G-quadruplexes are enriched in hnRNPF-binding sites and near hnRNPF-regulated alternatively spliced exons in the human transcriptome. Moreover, hnRNPF regulates an EMT-associated CD44 isoform switch in a G-quadruplex-dependent manner, which results in inhibition of EMT. Mining breast cancer TCGA datasets, we demonstrate that hnRNPF negatively correlates with an EMT gene signature and positively correlates with patient survival. These data suggest a critical role for RNA G-quadruplexes in regulating alternative splicing. Modulation of G-quadruplex structural integrity may control cellular processes important for tumor progression.

Genome-wide identifying of G-quadruplex structures directly by whole-genome resequencing

Project description:G-quadruplex (G4) structure is an alternative conformation of the double helical structure of B-form DNA arisen in guanine-rich sequences . The formation of G4 structures can influence chromatin architecture and many fundamental biology processes, such as DNA replication and gene regulation . We present G4-miner, a genome-wide approach to directly identify G4 structures from ordinary sequencing data. G4-miner inspects sequencing quality in whole genome, seizes unexpected fluctuations in local, and ascribes some of the quality fluctuations to the unstable formation of G4. We identified 736,689 G4 structures within human genome, in which 44.9% of all predicted canonical G4-froming sequences were contained.

Basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors MYC-MAX and CLOCK-BMAL1 associate with histones for E-box access

Project description:Basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors (TF) recognize E-boxes (CANNTG) and include over 100 members. Here we investigated how chromatinised E-boxes are engaged by two structurally diverse bHLH family members; the proto-oncogene MYC-MAX and the circadian TF, CLOCK-BMAL1. Both bind E-boxes preferentially near the nucleosomal entry/exit sites. Structural studies with artificial or endogenous nucleosome sequences illustrate that MYC-MAX/CLOCK-BMAL1 trigger DNA release from histones to gain access. The CLOCK-BMAL1 PAS dimerization domains engage the histone-octamer disc atop the H2A/H2B acidic patch, an interaction critical for circadian cycling. Binding of tandem E-boxes at endogenous DNA sequences is similarly achieved through direct interactions between two CLOCK-BMAL1 protomers and histones. At internal E-boxes, the MYC-MAX leucine zipper can also interact with histones H2B/H3, and its binding is indirectly enhanced by OCT4 elsewhere on the nucleosome. The nucleosomal E-box position and the type of bHLH dimerisation domain jointly determine the histone contact, the affinity, and the degree of competition/cooperativity with other nucleosome-bound factors.

DNA polymerase POLD1 promotes proliferation and metastasis of bladder cancer by stabilizing MYC

Project description:Hitherto, most studies on POLD1 have mainly focused on the effect of POLD1 inactivation mutation in tumors. Nonetheless, the mechanism underlying high POLD1 expression in tumorigenesis remains elusive. Herein, we substantiated the pro-carcinogenic role of POLD1 in bladder cancer (BLCA) and found that POLD1 expression is related to malignancy and prognosis of BLCA. Next, we demonstrated that POLD1 could promote proliferation and metastasis of BLCA via MYC. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that POLD1 was able to stabilize MYC in a manner independent of DNA polymerase activity. POLD1 attenuated the FBXW7-mediated ubiquitination degradation of MYC by directly binding to the MYC homology box 1 domain competitively with FBXW7. Moreover, we found that POLD1 can form a complex with MYC to promote the transcriptional activity of MYC. MYC could also transcriptionally activate POLD1, forming a POLD1-MYC positive feedback loop to enhance the pro-carcinogenic effect of POLD1-MYC on BLCA. Overall, our study suggests a novel MYC-driven mechanism for BLCA, and POLD1 has the potential as a biomarker for BLCA.

Global analyses of RNA G-quadruplexes

Project description:In vitro, some RNAs can form stable four-stranded structures known as G-quadruplexes. Although RNA G-quadruplex structures have been implicated in post-transcriptional gene regulation and diseases, direct evidence for quadruplex formation in cells has been lacking. Here, we developed a suite of methods that identify RNAs with quadruplex-forming ability and measure their folding state in living cells. Applying these methods to mammalian cell lines, the budding yeast S. cerevisiae and several bacteria, we characterized the folding landscapes of RNA G-quadruplexes in these species.

G-Quadruplex structures are stable and detectable in human genomic DNA.

Project description:The G-quadruplex is an alternative DNA structural motif that is considered to be functionally important in the mammalian genome. Herein, we address the hypothesis that G-quadruplex structures can exist within double-stranded genomic DNA using a G-quadruplex-specific probe. An engineered antibody is employed to enrich for DNA containing G-quadruplex structures, followed by deep sequencing to detect and map G-quadruplexes at high resolution in genomic DNA from human breast adenocarcinoma cells. Our high sensitivity structure-based pull-down strategy enables the isolation of genomic DNA fragments bearing a single as well as multiple G-quadruplex structures. Stable G-quadruplex structures are found in sub-telomeres, gene bodies and gene regulatory regions. For a sample of identified target genes, we show that G-quadruplex stabilizing ligands can modulate transcription. These results confirm the existence of G-quadruplex structures and their persistence in human genomic DNA. Four independent libraries have been enriched in DNA G-quadruplex structures using a G-quadruplex-specific probe. One genomic input library was sequenced as control. Deep-sequencing of these libraries allowed the mapping of G-quadruplexes on the genome.

Repriming limits R-loop formation at DNA secondary structures during S phase

Project description:The goal of this study was to compare the qualitative and quantitative differences in the presence of DNA:RNA hybrids (R-loops) between wild type and PrimPol knockout cell lines. Our initial genetic experiments on a reporter locus have showed a link between the formation of R-loop and non-B DNA motifs; we have therefore analysed the correlation between R-loop abundance and of sequences computationaly predicted to form triplex-DNA or G-quadruplex forming sequences, and whether this changes between the two cell lines.
