MLL5 Orchestrates a Cancer Self-Renewal State by Repressing the Histone Variant H3.3 and Globally Reorganizing Chromatin [expression]

ABSTRACT: Mutations in the histone 3 variant H3.3 have been identified in one-third of pediatric glioblastomas (GBMs), but not in adult tumors. Here we show that H3.3 is a dynamic determinant of functional properties in adult GBM. H3.3 is repressed by mixed lineage leukemia 5 (MLL5) in self-renewing GBM cells. MLL5 is a global epigenetic repressor that orchestrates reorganization of chromatin structure by punctuating chromosomes with foci of compacted chromatin, favoring tumorigenic and self-renewing properties. Conversely, H3.3 antagonizes self-renewal and promotes differentiation. We exploited these epigenetic states to rationally identify two small molecules that effectively curb cancer stem cell properties in a preclinical model. Our work uncovers a role for MLL5 and H3.3 in maintaining self-renewal hierarchies in adult GBM.

A Hierarchy of Self-Renewing Tumor-Initiating Cell Types in Glioblastoma

Project description:The neural stem cell marker CD133 is reported to identify cells within glioblastoma (GBM) that can initiate neurosphere growth and tumor formation, however, instances of CD133- cells exhibiting similar properties have also been reported. Here, we show that some PTEN-deficient GBM tumors produce a series of CD133+ and CD133- self-renewing tumor-initiating cell types and provide evidence that these cell types constitute a lineage hierarchy. Our results show that the capacities for self-renewal and tumor initiation in GBM need not be restricted to a uniform population of stem-like cells, but can be shared by a lineage of self-renewing cell types expressing a range of markers of forebrain lineage. Keywords: Expression and copy number analysis of glioblastomas and neurosphere forming derivative cell lines of same.

Murine Histone Methyltransferase Mll5, is involved in Male Gametogenesis

Project description:Male mice but not female Mll5 -/- mice are infertile. This study showed that post-meiotic spermatogenic maturation is impaired in Mll5 -/- mice. In order to investigate the role of Mll5 in spermatogenesis, a transcriptome analysis of whole testes from Mll5 knock out and wildtype mice was performed. Affymetrix Mouse Exon chips were hybridized with testes material from three individual male mice from each wild-type or Mll5 -/- genotype, in order to identify gene regulation differences attributed to the loss of Mll5.

Molecular basis for chromatin binding and regulation of MLL5

Project description:The human mixed lineage leukemia 5 (MLL5) protein mediates hematopoietic cell homeostasis, cell cycle and survival, however, the molecular basis underlying MLL5 activities remains unknown. Here, we show that MLL5 is recruited to gene-rich euchromatic regions via the interaction of its PHD finger with the histone mark H3K4me3. The 1.48 Å resolution crystal structure of the MLL5 PHD finger in complex with the H3K4me3 peptide reveals a non-canonical binding mechanism, whereby K4me3 is recognized through a single aromatic residue and an aspartate. The binding induces a His-Asp swapping rearrangement mediated by a C-terminal α-helix. Phosphorylation of H3T3 and H3T6 abrogates the association with H3K4me3 in vitro and in vivo, releasing MLL5 from chromatin in mitosis. This regulatory switch is conserved in the Drosophila ortholog of MLL5, MLL5, and suggests the developmental control for targeting of H3K4me3. Together, our findings provide insight into the molecular basis for the recruitment, exclusion and regulation of MLL5 at chromatin.

Together, our findings provide insight into the molecular basis for the recruitment, exclusion and regulation of MLL5 at chromatin. For determaning MLL5 chromatin profile, DamID-MLL5 chromatin profiling was determined in C2C12 cells . Three biological replicates were performed. Normalized data was averaged and HMM approach was applied to establish the bound regions (Straub, T., Grimaud, C., Gilfillan, G. D., Mitterweger, A., and Becker, P. B. (2008).

Mll5 is Required for Hematopoietic Stem Cell Fitness and Homeostasis

Project description:MLL5 is a novel trithorax group gene and a candidate tumor suppressor gene located within a 2.5 Mb interval of chromosome band 7q22 that is frequently deleted in human myeloid malignancy. Here we show that Mll5 is required for normal hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) homeostasis. Inactivation of the Mll5 gene in mice results in reduced cellularity of the long-term HSC compartment, which correlates with functional impairment of long-term repopulation potential under competitive conditions. Bone marrow cells from Mll5-deficient mice were defective in spleen colony-forming assays, and the mutant mice showed enhanced susceptibility to 5-Fluorouracil-induced myelosuppression. Heterozygous and homozygous Mll5 mutant mice did not spontaneously develop hematologic cancers, and loss of Mll5 did not alter the phenotype of a fatal myeloprolferative disorder induced by oncogenic Kras in vivo. Collectively, the data reveal an important role for Mll5 in HSC homeostasis, and provide a basis for further studies to explore its role in leukemogenesis. Keywords: Cell type comparision.

Epigenetic determinants of self-renewal in glioblastoma

Project description:We over-expressed an epigenetic regulator in a glioblastoma (GBM) primary culture from an adult patient. These GBM cells have cancer stem cell phenotypes, as they have self-renewal properties and tumor initiation potential when transplanted in immunocompromised mice. An epigenetic regulator (ER) was over-expressed in the GBM primary culture G514NS. EGFP was expressed from the same vector backbone as a control. N = 3 biological replicates for each of EGFP- and ER-overexpressing cells. Please note that complete data output (with 74,342 data rows) from Partek analysis contains several identifiers which are not represented in the GPL17586, and therefore is linked as Series supplementary file.
