Systematic characterization of BAF mutations explains intra-complex synthetic lethalities

ABSTRACT: Aberrations in genes coding for subunits of the BAF chromatin remodeling complex are highly abundant in human cancers. Currently, it is not understood how these loss-of-function mutations contribute to cancer development and how they can be targeted therapeutically. The cancer type specific occurrence patterns of certain subunit mutations suggest subunit-specific effects on BAF complex function, possibly by the formation of aberrant residual complexes. Here, we systematically characterize the effects of individual subunit loss on complex composition, chromatin accessibility and gene expression in a panel of knock-out cell lines deficient for 22 targetable BAF subunits. We observe strong, specific and often discordant alterations dependent on the targeted subunit and show that these explain intra-complex co-dependencies, including the novel synthetic lethal interactions SMARCA4-ARID2, SMARCA4-ACTB and SMARCC1-SMARCC2. These data provide insights into the role of different BAF subcomplexes in genome-wide chromatin organization and suggest novel approaches to therapeutically target BAF mutant cancers.

Acute BAF perturbation causes immediate changes in chromatin accessibility

Project description:Loss-of-function mutations in genes coding for subunits of the large, multifarious BRG1/BRM associated factor (BAF) chromatin remodeling complexes are frequently causative for cancer or developmental diseases1-5. Cells lacking the most frequently mutated subunits like the ATPase SMARCA4 typically exhibit drastic chromatin accessibility changes, especially of important regulatory regions6-12. However, so far it remains unknown how these changes are established over time, and whether they are causative for intra-complex synthetic lethalities abrogating the formation (SMARCC1-SMARCC2)8,13,14 or activity (SMARCA4-SMARCA2)15-17 of BAF complexes. Here, we utilize the dTAG system18 to induce acute degradation of BAF subunits in wild-type and BAF mutant backgrounds and analyze the resulting chromatin accessibility changes with high kinetic resolution. We observe that chromatin alterations are established faster than the duration of one cell cycle and that maintaining genome accessibility requires constant ATP-dependent remodeling. Completely abolishing BAF complex function by acute degradation of a synthetic lethal subunit in a paralog-deficient background results in a near-complete loss of chromatin accessibility at BAF-controlled sites, especially at super-enhancers, providing a mechanism for intra-complex synthetic lethalities.

SMNDC1 links chromatin remodeling and splicing to regulate pancreatic hormone expression

Project description:Insulin expression is restricted to the pancreatic beta cells, which are physically or functionally depleted in diabetes. Identifying targetable pathways repressing insulin in non-beta cells, particularly in the developmentally related glucagon-secreting alpha cells, is an important aim of regenerative medicine. Here, we performed an RNA interference screen in the murine alpha cell line, alphaTC1, to identify silencers of insulin expression. We discovered that knockdown of the splicing factor Smndc1 (Survival Motor Neuron Domain Containing 1) triggered a global repression of alpha cell gene-expression programs in favor of increased beta cell markers. Mechanistically, Smndc1 knockdown upregulated the key beta cell transcription factor Pdx1, by modulating the activities of the BAF and Atrx families of chromatin remodeling complexes. SMNDC1’s repressive role was conserved in human pancreatic islets, its loss triggering enhanced insulin secretion and PDX1 expression. Our study identifies Smndc1 as a key factor connecting splicing and chromatin remodeling to the control of insulin expression in human and mouse islet cells.

IgE antibodies increase honeybee venom responsiveness and detoxification efficiency of mast cells

Project description:In contrast to their clearly defined roles in allergic diseases, the physiologic functions of Immunoglobulin E antibodies (IgEs) and mast cells (MCs) remain enigmatic. Recent research supports the toxin hypothesis, showing that MCs and IgE-related type 2 immune responses can enhance host defense against certain noxious substances, including honeybee venom (BV). However, the mechanisms by which MCs can interfere with BV toxicity are unknown. In this study, we assessed the role of IgE and certain MC products in MC-mediated BV detoxification. We applied in vitro and in vivo fluorescence microscopy imaging, and flow cytometry, fibroblast-based toxicity assays and mass spectrometry to investigate IgE-mediated detoxification of BV cytotoxicity by mouse and human MCs in vitro. Pharmacologic strategies to interfere with MC-derived heparin and proteases helped to define the importance of specific detoxification mechanisms. Venom-specific IgE increased the degranulation and cytokine responses of MCs to BV in vitro. Passive serum sensitization enhanced MC degranulation in vivo. IgE-activated mouse or human MCs exhibited enhanced potential for detoxifying BV by both proteolytic degradation and heparin-related interference with toxicity. Mediators released by IgE-activated human MCs efficiently degraded multiple BV toxins. Our results both reveal that IgE sensitization enhances the MC’s ability to detoxify BV and also assign efficient toxin-neutralizing activity to MC-derived heparin and proteases. Our study thus highlights the potential importance of IgE, MCs, and particular MC products in defense against BV.

SLC15A4 (PHT1) interaction proteomics

Project description:Human genetics and mouse models provide compelling evidence for the involvement of SLC15A4 in endosomal TLR activation. To gain an understanding of the molecular mechanism, we set out to identify its binding partners by interaction proteomics. TAP-MS/MS analysis of different SLC15A4 protein variants provided a global view of the SLC15A4 interaction landscape. Among the proteins detected, the uncharacterized protein CXorf21 emerged as a prominent and specific binder. CXorf21 is a X chromosome-encoded gene which has also been linked to SLE by a GWAS. CXorf21 was robustly identified with all the SLC15A4 constructs tested, indicating that the interaction does not require the N-terminal or central cytoplasmic region of the transporter. Reciprocal TAP-MS/MS analysis using tagged CXorf21 identified endogenous SLC15A4 as a specific interactor.

Quantitative Proteome Responses to Oncolytic Reovirus in GM-CSF and M-CSF-Differentiated Bone Marrow-Derived Cells

Project description:To explore reovirus-macrophage interactions, we performed tandem mass tag (TMT)-based quantitative temporal proteomics on mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) generated with 2 cytokines, M-CSF and GM-CSF, representing anti- and pro-inflammatory macrophages, respectively. We quantified 6,863 proteins across five time points in duplicate, comparing M-CSF (M-BMM) and GM-CSF (GM-BMM) in response to OV. We find that GM-BMMs have lower expression of key intrinsic proteins that facilitate an anti-viral immune response, express higher levels of reovirus receptor protein JAM-A and are more susceptible to oncolytic reovirus infection compared to M-BMMs. Interestingly, although M-BMMs are less susceptible to reovirus infection and subsequent cell death, they initiate an anti-reovirus adaptive T cell immune response comparable to that of GM-BMMs. Taken together, these data describe distinct proteome differences between these two macrophage populations in terms of their ability to mount anti-viral immune responses.

A mouse model of Fragile X Syndrome analyzed by quantitative proteomics: a comparison of methods

Project description:We have compared the performance of seven different strategies in the analysis of a mouse model of Fragile X Syndrome, involving the knockout of the fmr1 gene that is the leading cause of autism spectrum disorder. Focusing on the cerebellum, we show that Data-Independent Acquisition (DIA) and the TMT-based Real-time Search method (RTS) generated the most informative profiles, generating 334 and 329 significantly altered proteins respectively, although the latter still suffered from ratio compression. Label-free methods such as BoxCar and a conventional Data-Dependent Acquisition were too noisy to generate a reliable profile, while TMT methods that do not invoke RTS showed a suppressed dynamic range. The TMT method based on complementary ions (ProC) overcomes ratio compression, but current limitations in ion detection reduces sensitivity. Overall, both DIA and RTS uncovered known regulators of the syndrome and detected alterations in calcium signalling pathways that are consistent with calcium deregulation recently observed in imaging studies.

Integrative MHC-I peptidome quantitation with isobaric tagging mass spectrometry

Project description:Despite the appreciation of CD8+ T cell anti-tumor immune responses towards improvement patient outcomes, the MHC-I peptides that facilitate the response are poorly described. Alternatively, whether cancer therapies alter the MHC-I peptide repertoire has not been fully assessed due to the lack of quantitative strategies. In this regard, anthracyclines and ionizing radiation both increase the infiltration of CD8+ T cells into tumors but whether they do so by altering the MHC-I peptidome repertoire is not known. To investigate this, we developed a platform for screening therapy-induced MHC-I peptides by quantitative, multiplexed measurement of MHC-I peptides with tandem mass tags (TMT). We show that both ionizing radiation and the anthracycline doxorubicin induce MHC-I peptides that are largely derived from mitotic progression and cell cycle proteins. Our approach enables further strategies to understand how small molecules and other therapies alter MHC-I peptide presentation that may be harnessed for CD8+ T cell-based immunotherapies.

NAD Salvage Supports Serine Biosynthesis

Project description:Maintenance of NAD+ levels by mitochondrial complex I, the NAD+ salvage pathway, and other routes is an important factor in of neurodegenerative disease and cancer. Both the production of NAD+ and the metabolic enzymes that require it as a redox cofactor or substrate differ widely in abundance across cell types and conditions. Disruption in the NAD+ supply thus exerts different effects depending on the cellular NAD+ requirements existing in the cell. Pharmacological depletion of NAD+ is actively being pursued in cancer and other diseases but these effects are not fully understood. Here, we combine quantitative proteomics and metabolomics to understand the consequences of disrupting cellular NAD+ levels and find that inhibiting the NAD+ salvage pathway depletes serine biosynthesis from glucose by impeding the NAD+-dependent protein 3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH). Importantly, breast cancers that depend on PHGDH are exquisitely sensitive to blocking the NAD+ salvage pathway. PHGDH, and the rate-limiting enzyme of NAD+ salvage are also correlated in public tumor proteome and transcript datasets. These findings are immediately translatable to the pharmacological inhibition of NAMPT in PHGDH-dependent cancers.
