Bidirectional regulation of adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing by DEAH box helicase 9 (DHX9) in cancer

ABSTRACT: Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing entails the enzymatic deamination of adenosines to inosines by adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs). Dysregulated A-to-I editing has been implicated in various diseases, including cancers. However, the precise factors governing the A-to-I editing and their physiopathological implications remain as a long-standing question. Herein, we unravel that DEAH box helicase 9 (DHX9), at least partially dependent of its helicase activity, functions as a bidirectional regulator of A-to-I editing in cancer cells. Intriguingly, the ADAR substrate specificity determines the opposing effects of DHX9 on editing as DHX9 silencing preferentially represses editing of ADAR1-specific substrates, whereas augments ADAR2-specific substrate editing. Analysis of 11 cancer types from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) reveals a striking overexpression of DHX9 in tumors. Further, tumorigenicity studies demonstrate a helicase-dependent oncogenic role of DHX9 in cancer development. In sum, DHX9 constitutes a bidirectional regulatory mode in A-to-I editing, which is in part responsible for the dysregulated editome profile in cancer.

Suppression of adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editome by death associated protein 3 (DAP3) promotes cancer progression

Project description:RNA editing introduces nucleotide changes in RNA sequences. Recent studies have reported that aberrant A-to-I RNA editing profiles are implicated in cancers. Albeit changes in expression and activity of ADAR genes are thought to have been responsible for the dysregulated RNA editome in diseases, they are not always correlated, indicating the involvement of secondary regulators. Here, we uncover DAP3 as a potent repressor of editing and a strong oncogene in cancer. DAP3 mainly interacts with the deaminase domain of ADAR2 and represses editing via disrupting association of ADAR2 with its target transcripts. PDZD7, an exemplary DAP3-repressed editing target, undergoes a protein recoding editing at stop codon [Stop →Trp (W)]. Because of editing suppression by DAP3, the unedited PDZD7WT, which is more tumorigenic than edited PDZD7Stop518W, is accumulated in tumors. In sum, cancer cells may acquire malignant properties for their survival advantage through suppressing RNA editome by DAP3.

The RNA editing enzyme ADAR1 is a key regulatory of innate immune responses to RNA

Project description:The ADAR RNA editing enzymes deaminate adenosine bases to inosines in cellular RNAs, recoding open reading frames. Human ADAR1 mutations cause Aicardi-Goutieres Syndrome (AGS) and Adar1 mutant mice showing an aberrant interferon response and death by embryonic day E12.5 model the human disease. Searches have not identified key ADAR1 RNA editing sites recoding immune/haematopoietic proteins but editing is widespread in Alu sequences. We show that Adar1 embryonic lethality is rescued in Adar1; Mavs double mutant mice in which general antiviral responses to cytoplasmic dsRNA are prevented. We propose that inosine bases are epigenetic marks identifying cellular RNA as innate immune ÒselfÓ. Consistent with this idea we show that an editing-active cytoplasmic ADAR is required to prevent aberrant immune responses in Adar1 mutant mouse embryo fibroblasts. No dramatic increase in repetitive transcripts is observed. AGS mutations in ADAR1 affect editing by the interferon-inducible cytoplasmic ADAR1 isoform. RNA-seq expression profiling in Adar1 and Adar1/Mavs knockout mice embryos.

Tumor Cell Survival Dependence on the DExH-Box Helicase DHX9

Project description:The ATP-dependent DExH/D-box helicase DHX9 is a key participant in a number of gene regulatory steps, including transcriptional, translational, microRNA-mediated control, DNA replication, and maintenance of genomic stability. DHX9 has also been implicated in maintenance of the tumorigenic process and in drug response. Here, we report that inhibition of DHX9 expression is lethal to multiple human and mouse cancer cell lines. In contrast, using a novel conditional shDHX9 mouse model, we demonstrate that sustained and prolonged suppression of DHX9 is well tolerated at the organismal level. Our results demonstrate a robust tolerance for DHX9 knockdown in non-transformed cells and supports the targeting of DHX9 as an effective and specific chemotherapeutic approach. Comparison of gene expression in large intestine of mice with or without reduced expression of DHX9.

ADARs act as potent regulators of circular transcriptome in cancer

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are produced by head-to-tail back-splicing which is mainly facilitated by base-pairing of reverse complementary matches (RCMs) in circRNA flanking introns. Adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs) are known to bind double-stranded RNAs for adenosine to inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing. Here we characterize ADARs as potent regulators of circular transcriptome by identifying over a thousand of circRNAs regulated by ADARs in a bidirectional manner through and beyond their editing function. We found that editing can stabilize or destabilize secondary structures formed between RCMs via correcting A:C mismatches to I(G)-C pairs or creating I(G).U wobble pairs, respectively. We provided experimental evidence that editing also favors the binding of RNA-binding proteins such as PTBP1 to regulate back-splicing. These ADARs-regulated circRNAs which are ubiquitously expressed in multiple types of cancers, demonstrate high functional relevance to cancer. Our findings support a hitherto unappreciated bidirectional regulation of circular transcriptome by ADARs and highlights the complexity of cross-talk in RNA processing and its contributions to tumorigenesis.

Trancriptome study in rhesus monkey

Project description:While the next generation sequencing technology is accelerating the discovery of sites in RNA editing, the strategies to accurately identify the editome, the mechanism by which its profile is maintained and its functional significance remain controversial. Here, 90bp × 2, paired-end, strand-specific, polyA-postive RNA-Seq were performed in 3 rhesus monkey tissues, and 90bp × 2, paired-end, whole exome sequencing was performed in blood cells. Combining genome-wide identification and other quality control in multiple tissues from the same individual, we identified a list of editing sites in coding regions from the rhesus macaque, one of our closest evolutionary relatives. Low-scale verification validated all of these sites and the corresponding levels of editing. The editome in macaque coding region suggests RNA editing as a type of controlled, conserved regulation shaped by purifying selection. This submission represents RNA-Seq: cerebellum, lung, kidney and heart component of study.

Identification of a new ADAR1-dependent RNA editing event in the cyclin dependent kinase CDK13 that promotes thyroid cancer cell hallmarks

Project description:Adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADAR) catalyze the conversion of adenosines into inosines (A-to-I), modifying a large proportion of cellular RNAs and associated with diverse cancers. We reported previously that ADAR1 is functionally important for thyroid cancer progression and A-to-I editing events are elevated in these tumors. However, the downstream effectors regulated or edited by ADAR1 and the significance of ADAR1 dysregulation in thyroid cancer remain unclear. Here we provide insight, by whole transcriptome sequencing, into the consequences of ADAR1 dysregulation on global gene expression, RNA splicing and RNA editing. Furthermore, we describe for the first time an oncogenic function for CDK13 in thyroid cancer and identified a new ADAR1-dependent RNA editing event that occurs in the coding region of its transcript. Moreover, CDK13 was significantly over-edited in tumor samples and our functional analysis revealed the importance of this specific editing event in promoting cancer cell hallmarks. Finally, we showed that the editing of CDK13 modifies its subcellular localization and that this event could explain, at least in part, the global change in splicing produced by ADAR1 dysregulation. In summary, our data reinforces A-to-I editing as an important pathway in cancer progression, identifying novel mechanisms that open new insights into future treatments in thyroid and other cancer types.

RNA helicase A is necessary for KIF1Bβ tumor suppression in neuroblastoma

Project description:During development neuronal progenitors compete for growth factors such as nerve growth factor NGF and require the prolyl hydroxylase EglN3 and the kinesin KIF1Bβ for developmental apoptosis. Inherited KIF1Bβ loss-of-function mutations in neuroblastomas and pheochromocytomas implicate KIF1Bβ as a 1p36.2 tumor suppressor, however the mechanism of tumor suppression is unknown. We found that KIF1Bβ interacts with the RNA helicase A (DHX9) resulting in DHX9 nuclear accumulation to regulate apoptosis. KIF1Bβ-dependent DHX9 nuclear localization leads to transcription of the apoptotic target XIAP-associated factor 1. DHX9 is induced when NGF is limiting and required for apoptosis in cells deprived of NGF. NB1 cells were transduced to incorporate shRNA against DHX9 or a scrambled control, and transfected with a KIF1Bβ expression vector or control, then transfected cells were isolated and lysed after 48h.

Placental Editome Profiling Reveals Widespread RNA-Editing Dysregulation in Preeclampsia

Project description:Dysregulated RNA editing is well documented in several diseases such as cancer. The extent to which RNA editing might be involved in diseases originated in the placenta such as preeclampsia remains unknown, because RNA editing has rarely been studied in the placenta. Here, the RNA editome is systematically profiled on placentae from 9 patients with early-onset severe preeclampsia (EOSPE) and 32 normal controls, and a widespread RNA editing dysregulation in EOSPE has been identified. The mis-edited gene set is enriched with known preeclampsia-associated genes and differentially expressed genes in EOSPE. The “RNA editing events” at two microRNA binding sites in 3’-UTR of the LEP mRNA have been generated, which leads to increased expression level of LEP in trophoblast cells. Upregulation of LEP is also observed in the placentae of PE patients. These results suggest that widespread placental RNA editing may be involved in placental development and dysregulation of RNA editing in the placenta may contribute to the pathogenesis of preeclampsia.
