SPOP mutation confers intrinsic BET inhibitor resistance in prostate cancer (ChIP-Seq)

ABSTRACT: Bromodomain and extraterminal domain (BET) protein inhibitors are emerging as promising therapeutics of cancers including prostate cancer. The E3 ubiquitin ligase adaptor protein speckle-type POZ protein (SPOP) is implicated in human prostate cancers due to its frequent mutation. Here we demonstrate that SPOP binds to the BET proteins BRD2, BRD3 and BRD4. Wild-type SPOP, but not prostate cancer-associated mutants, promotes polyubiquitination and proteasome degradation of BET proteins by recognizing a common degron motif. BET protein levels are highly elevated in SPOP-mutated prostate cancers in patients. Expression of cancer-derived SPOP mutants upregulates cholesterol biosynthesis genes and confers resistance to the BET inhibitor in cultured prostate cancer cells and tumors in mice, and this effect can be overcome by the AKT inhibitor. Our findings reveal BET proteins as proteolytic targets of SPOP and identify deregulated cholesterol biosynthesis as a downstream event of SPOP mutation-mediated tumorigenesis and therapy resistance in prostate cancer.

Opposing effects of cancer-type-specific SPOP mutations on BET protein degradation and sensitivity to BET inhibitors

Project description:Janouskova H, El Tekle G, Bellini E, Udeshi ND, Rinaldi A, Ulbricht A, Bernasocchi T, Civenni G, Losa M, Svinkina T, Bielski CM, Kryukov GV, Cascione L, Sara Napoli S, Enchev RI, Mutch DG, Carney ME, Berchuck A, Winterhoff BJN, Broaddus RR, Schraml P, Moch H, Bertoni F, Catapano CV, Peter M, Carr SA, Garraway LA, Wild PJ, and Theurillat JP. Nature Medicine 2017. It is generally assumed that recurrent mutations within a given cancer driver gene elicit similar drug responses. Cancer genome studies have identified recurrent but divergent missense mutations affecting the substrate-recognition domain of the ubiquitin ligase adaptor SPOP in endometrial and prostate cancers. The therapeutic implications of these mutations remain incompletely understood. Here we analyzed changes in the ubiquitin landscape induced by endometrial cancer-associated SPOP mutations and identified BRD2, BRD3 and BRD4 proteins (BETs) as SPOP-CUL3 substrates that are preferentially degraded by endometrial cancer-associated SPOP mutants. The resulting reduction of BET protein levels sensitized cancer cells to BET inhibitors. Conversely, prostate cancer-specific SPOP mutations resulted in impaired degradation of BETs, promoting their resistance to pharmacologic inhibition.These results uncover an oncogenomics paradox, whereby mutations mapping to the same domain evoke opposing drug susceptibilities. Specifically, we provide a molecular rationale for the use of BET inhibitors to treat patients with endometrial but not prostate cancer who harbor SPOP mutations.

G3BP1 inhibits Cul3SPOP to amplify AR signaling and promote prostate tumorigenesis

Project description:Speckle-type POZ protein (SPOP), an E3 ubiquitin ligase, acts as a tumor suppressor. We identified G3BP1 as non-substrate interactor of SPOP. G3BP1 is a well-known oncogene in many cancer types, but its role in prostate cancer (PCa) remains largely elusive. We showed that G3BP1 functions as an upstream regulator and potent endogenous inhibitor of Cul3SPOP, suggesting a distinctive Cul3SPOP inactivation independent of SPOP mutations. Transcriptomic analysis together with functional studies revealed that the G3BP1-SPOP ubiquitin signaling axis is involved in PCa progression through activating AR signaling. Further, AR upregulates G3BP1 to potentiate feed-forward amplification of signaling through G3BP1-SPOP axis. Overall, we show G3BP1high PCa tumors constitute a new subset where G3BP1 inhibits Cul3SPOP function to upregulate AR signaling, and promotes tumorigenesis.

Effects of SPOP on gene expression in prostate cancer

Project description:SPOP is a ubiquitin ligase adaptor frequently mutated in prostate cancer. It is involved in ubiquitination and degradation of substrate proteins. We examined the impact of wild-type and mutant SPOP on the transcriptional profile of prostate cancer cells. We cloned several naturally occurring (in human prostate cancer) SPOP mutants and expressed the corresponding constructs in prostate cancer cells. Our experimental conditions were: Human prostate cancer cells (LNCaP-Abl), transfected with control vector, SPOP-wt, and any of the following mutants: SPOP-F102C, SPOP-F133V, SPOP-F133L (2-4 biological replicates each). We analyzed their gene expression profiles for differences induced by SPOP-wt vs SPOP-mutant.

SPOP mutation - SPOP Mutation Drives Prostate Tumorigenesis In Vivo through Coordinate Regulation of PI3K/mTOR and AR Signaling

Project description:Recurrent point mutations in SPOP define a distinct molecular subclass of prostate cancer. Here, we describe the first mouse model showing that mutant SPOP drives prostate tumorigenesis in vivo. Conditional expression of mutant SPOP in the prostate dramatically altered phenotypes in the setting of Pten loss, with early neoplastic lesions (high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia) with striking nuclear atypia, and invasive poorly differentiated carcinoma. In mouse prostate organoids, mutant SPOP drove increased proliferation and a transcriptional signature consistent with human prostate cancer. Using these models and human prostate cancer samples, we show that SPOP mutation activates both PI3K/mTOR and androgen receptor (AR) signaling, effectively uncoupling the normal negative feedback between these two pathways. Associated RNA-seq data deposited in GEO: GSE94839.

SPOP mutations derived from prostate cancer establish a DNA hypermethylation epigenome through stabilizing GLP histone methyltransferase

Project description:Abnormal DNA methylation is one of the major factors driving oncogenesis and therapy resistance in cancer. The CULLIN3-RBX1 E3 ubiquitin ligase adaptor gene SPOP is the most frequently mutated gene in primary prostate cancers (PCa). SPOP-mutated prostate tumors strikingly associate with strongly elevated levels of genome-wide DNA hypermethylation, although the underlying mechanism remains elusive. We use reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) to depict DNA methylation in control and SPOP F133V stably expressed 22Rv1 cells. Genomic DNA of cells are extracted and treated with restriction enzyme and followed by bisulfite sequencing to enrich for areas of the genome with a high CpG content. We find that SPOP mutant expression increases not only the overall cellular level of DNA methylation, but also specifically at loci of a subset of tumor suppressor genes (TSG) including FOXO3 and NDRG1, and this effect is mediated by GLP/G9a binding with DNMT proteins. These findings reveal a previously uncharacterized mechanism by which SPOP mutations promote DNA hypermethylation through stabilization GLP as a chromatin recruiter of DNMT. Our results also suggest that targeting DNA hypermethylation is a viable strategy for effective management of SPOP mutated PCa.

Gene Expression Profiling of SPOP Knocked Down Cell

Project description:SPOP is one of the most frequent mutated genes in prostate cancer. In the current study, we identified CCNE1 as its substrate. SPOP directly interacts with CCNE1, poly-ubiquitinates CCNE1 in vivo and in vitro, and represses cancer-related phenotypes induced by CCNE1 expression. Thus, we reveal a new mechanism for SPOP in repressing prostate cancer tumorigenesis.
