Project description:DEAD-box RNA helicases are vital for the regulation of various aspects of the RNA life cycle, but the molecular underpinnings of their involvement, particularly in mammalian cells, remain poorly understood. Here we show that the DEAD-box RNA helicase DDX21 can sense transcriptional status of both RNA Pol I and Pol II to control transcriptional and post-transcriptional steps of ribosome biogenesis in human cells. We demonstrate that DDX21 widely associates with Pol I- and Pol II-transcribed genes and with diverse species of protein-coding and noncoding RNAs. Although broad, these molecular interactions, both at the chromatin and at the RNA level, exhibit a remarkable specificity for the ribosomal pathway. In the nucleolus, DDX21 occupies the transcribed rDNA locus, directly contacts both rRNA and snoRNAs and, as a functional component of the snoRNA ribonucleoprotein (snoRNP) complex, promotes modification of rRNA. In the nucleoplasm, DDX21 is incorporated into the 7SK snRNP complex, which facilitates DDX21 association with promoters of Pol II-transcribed genes encoding ribosomal proteins and snoRNAs. Promoter-bound DDX21 facilitates the release of P-TEFb from the 7SK snRNP, enhancing productive Pol II elongation. Altogether, we present a unifying mechanism for the coordinated regulation of ribosomal genes across nuclear compartments, and provide first evidence implicating a mammalian RNA helicase in RNA modification and Pol II elongation control.

Project description:PARP inhibitors (PARPi) are thought to control cancer cell growth by inducing synthetic lethality with DNA repair defects (e.g., in BRCA1/2 mutant cells). We have identified an alternate pathway for PARPi-mediated growth control in BRCA1/2-intact breast cancer cells involving rDNA transcription and ribosome biogenesis. PARP-1 binds to snoRNAs, which stimulate PARP-1 catalytic activity in the nucleolus independent of DNA damage. Activated PARP-1 ADPribosylates DDX21, an RNA helicase that localizes to the rDNA locus and promotes rDNA transcription when ADP-ribosylated. Treatment with PARPi or mutation of the ADP-ribosylation sites on DDX21 causes a reduction in rDNA transcription, as well as a reduction in ribosome biogenesis, protein translation, and cell growth. Our studies provide mechanistic insights into PARP-1-dependent ADP-ribosylation of DDX21 and its role in ribosome biogenesis. This pathway can be targeted for disruption in cancer cells that lack defects in DNA repair, but exhibit growth inhibition in response to PARPi.

Project description:PARP inhibitors (PARPi) prevent cancer cell growth by inducing synthetic lethality with DNA repair defects (e.g., in BRCA1/2 mutant cells). We have identified an alternate pathway for PARPi-mediated growth control in BRCA1/2-intact breast cancer cells involving rDNA transcription and ribosome biogenesis. PARP-1 binds to snoRNAs, which stimulate PARP-1 catalytic activity in the nucleolus independent of DNA damage. Activated PARP-1 ADP-ribosylates DDX21, an RNA helicase that localizes to nucleoli and promotes rDNA transcription when ADP-ribosylated. Treatment with PARPi or mutation of the ADP-ribosylation sites reduce DDX21 nucleolar localization, rDNA transcription, ribosome biogenesis, protein translation, and cell growth. The salient features of this pathway are evident in xenografts in mice and human breast cancer patient samples. Elevated levels of PARP-1 and nucleolar DDX21 are associated with cancer-related outcomes. Our studies provide a mechanistic rationale for efficacy of PARPi in cancer cells lacking defects in DNA repair whose growth is inhibited by PARPi.

Project description:Microarray gene profilling indentified snoRNAs are downstream target of Amino Enhancer of Split (AES) and are essential for AML1-ETO9a induced leukemia. Amino Enhancer of Split (Aes) is strongly induced by leukemia oncogenes AML1-ETO, PML-RARα and PLZF-RARα. With a conditional AES knockout mouse model we showed that AES is essential for AML1-ETO9a indeced leukemia. We performed gene expression microarray using mouse primary AML1-ETO9a transformed AES wildtype and knockout and showed that snoRNAs were downregulated in AES knockout cells. We found that SnoRNA induction is a common mechanism shared by distinct oncogenes including AML1-ETO, MYC and MLL-AF9. Suppression of C/D box snoRNA complexes or deletion of several single C/D box snoRNAs inhibit clonogenic growth of leukemia cells. These findings suggest that enhancement of snoRNA levels is a critical mechanism of leukemic transformation.

Project description:Leukemogenesis requires enhanced self-renewal activity, which is induced by specific oncogenes. The underlying molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. We transduced mouse lineage negative bone marrow cells (enriched for hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells) with retrovirus expressing leukemic oncogene AML1-ETO9a, MYC and MLL-AF9 as well as empty vector (MIG). We found that all three oncogenes enhanced snoRNA formation. High abundance of snoRNAs was observed in primary human AML specimens with the notable exception of NPM1 mutant AML. Leukemogenesis by AML1-ETO required expression of the groucho related Amino Enhancer of Split (AES). AES functioned by inducing snoRNA/RNP formation via interaction with the RNA helicase DDX21. Similarly, loss of C/D box snoRNAs with concomitant loss of rRNA 2’-O-methylation resulted in decreased leukemia self-renewal potential.In summary, we identified C/D box snoRNAs and rRNA 2’-O-methylation as critical determinants of leukemic stem cell activity.

Project description:The stress of nucleotide pool reduction regulates transcription in neural crest and melanoma cells. To better understand the molecular response caused by nucleotide stress, we designed a chemical suppressor screen for leflunomide, an inhibitor of dihydroorate dehydrogenase. We found that alterations in the progesterone receptor (Pgr) activity suppressed the neural crest effects of leflunomide. To clarify the mechanism of action, we found that the RNA helicase protein, Ddx21, binds to Pgr, and loss of function of Ddx21 conferred resistance to nucleotide stress in zebrafish embryos. At the molecular level, nucleotide stress reduces DDX21 chromatin occupancy and thus, target gene expression. Together our results show that DDX21 is a transcriptional sensor and mediator of the nucleotide stress response.
