Pervasive transcription read-through promotes aberrant expression of oncogenes and RNA chimeras in renal carcinoma

ABSTRACT: Aberrant expression of cancer genes and non-canonical RNA species is a hallmark of cancer. However, the mechanisms driving such atypical gene expression programs are incompletely understood. Here, our transcriptional profiling of a cohort of 50 primary clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) reveals that transcription read-through beyond the termination site is a source of transcriptome diversity in cancer cells. Amongst the genes most frequently mutated in ccRCC, we identified SETD2 inactivation as a potent enhancer of transcription read-through. We further show that invasion of neighbouring genes and generation of RNA chimeras are functional outcomes of transcription read-through. We identified the BCL2 oncogene as one of such invaded genes and detected a novel chimera, the CTSC-RAB38, in 20% of ccRCC samples. Collectively, our data highlight a novel link between transcription read-through and aberrant expression of oncogenes and chimeric transcripts that is prevalent in cancer.

Long read transcriptome sequencing of ccRCC tumour cell line RCC4

Project description:Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common form of kidney cancer. To date, long-read RNA sequencing has not been applied to kidney cancer. Here, we used ONT long-read Direct RNA sequencing to profile the transcriptomes of ccRCC cell line RCC4, with and without exposure to pro-inflammatory cytokines. Our results revealed differentially expressed genes induced by the pro-inflammatory cytokines. Moreover, results here revealed potential tumour origin of novel isoforms and genes that were discovered in the archival tumour samples by long-read sequencing.

Transcriptomic profiling of ccRCC nephrectomy samples by PCR-cDNAseq

Project description:Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common form of kidney cancer. Following primary tumour resection approximately 30% of patients experience disease recurrence associated with metastasis. To date, long-read RNA sequencing has not been applied to kidney cancer. Here, we used ONT long-read PCR-cDNAseq to profile the transcriptomes of ccRCC archival tumours, 6 of which were from patients who went on to relapse. Our results revealed a loss of immune infiltrate in tumours of patients who relapse. Moreover, thousands of novel isoforms were discovered, including a novel PD-L1 transcript encoding for the soluble version of the protein but having a longer 3'UTR than the currently annotated transcript. Finally, we have identified a novel non-coding gene that was over-expressed in patients who experience recurrence. Our data shows that ONT long-read PCR-cDNAseq can be used in archival tumour samples to comprehensively characterise tumour transcriptomes, and to reveal novel features that would have been missed by short-read RNAseq.

Loss of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine is linked to gene body hypermethylation in kidney cancer

Project description:Aberrant DNA methylation is common in cancer. To associate DNA methylation with gene function, we performed RNAseq upon tumor tissue and matched normal tissues of two ccRCC (clear cell renal cell carcinoma) patients. To quantify 5mC and 5hmC level in each CG site at genome-wide level, we performed BS-seq and TAB-seq upon tumor tissue and matched normal tissues of two ccRCC (clear cell renal cell carcinoma) patients, respectively. mRNA profiles of tumor and matched normal tissues from two ccRCC patients were generated by deep sequencing, using Hiseq 2000. Single-nucleotide-resolution, whole-genome, 5mC and 5hmC profiles of tumor and matched normal tissues from two ccRCC (clear cell renal cell carcinoma) patients were generated by deep sequencing, using Hiseq 2000.

Novel splicing and open reading frames revealed by long-read direct RNA sequencing of adenovirus transcripts

Project description:Adenovirus is a common human pathogen that relies on host cell processes for transcription and processing of viral RNA and protein production. Although adenoviral promoters, splice junctions, and cleavage and polyadenylation sites have been characterized using low-throughput biochemical techniques or short read cDNA-based sequencing, these technologies do not fully capture the complexity of the adenoviral transcriptome. By combining Illumina short-read and nanopore long-read direct RNA sequencing approaches, we mapped transcription start sites and cleavage and polyadenylation sites across the adenovirus genome. In addition to confirming the known canonical viral early and late RNA cassettes, our analysis of splice junctions within long RNA reads revealed an additional 35 novel viral transcripts. These RNAs include fourteen new splice junctions which lead to expression of canonical open reading frames (ORF), six novel ORF-containing transcripts, and fifteen transcripts encoding for messages that potentially alter protein functions through truncations or fusion of canonical ORFs. In addition, we also detect RNAs that bypass canonical cleavage sites and generate potential chimeric proteins by linking separate gene transcription units. Of these, an evolutionary conserved protein was detected containing the N-terminus of E4orf6 fused to the downstream DBP/E2A ORF. Loss of this novel protein, E4orf6/DBP, was associated with aberrant viral replication center morphology and poor viral spread. Our work highlights how long-read sequencing technologies can reveal further complexity within viral transcriptomes.

Lineage factor functions in renal carcinoma [II]

Project description:The oncogenic potential of cancer-associated genetic alterations displays strong tissue-selectivity, the origins of which remain poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that the lineage transcription factor PAX8 is essential for oncogenic signaling downstream of the most common genetic alterations causing clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Through interaction at a distal enhancer element PAX8 facilitates CCND1 expression by HIF2A, an oncogenic driver that is genetically activated due to VHL loss in ~90% of ccRCCs. PAX8 binding at this enhancer which mediates HIF2A-dependent ccRCC formation is inhibited by the common ccRCC protective allele C at rs7948643. In addition, PAX8 supports MYC expression in ccRCC through HNF1B, another renal lineage factor. Transcriptional lineage factors are thus critical determinants of the tissue-specific cancer risk associated with somatic and inherited genetic variants. Our data also suggest that lineage factors could be targeted for therapeutic inhibition of canonical oncogenic drivers such as MYC and CCND1.
