Project description:While oncogenes can potentially be inhibited with small molecules, the loss of tumor suppressors is more common and is problematic because the tumor suppressor proteins are no longer present to be targeted. Notable examples include SMARCB1-mutant cancers, which are highly lethal malignancies driven by the inactivation of a subunit of SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes. To generate mechanistic insight into the consequences of SMARCB1 mutation and to identify vulnerabilities, we contributed 14 SMARCB1-mutant cell lines to a near genome-wide CRISPR screen as part of the Cancer Dependency Map Project1-3. Here, we report that the little-studied gene DDB1-CUL4 Associated Factor 5 (DCAF5) is required for the survival of SMARCB1-mutant cancers. We show that DCAF5 serves a quality control function for SWI/SNF complexes and promotes degradation of incompletely assembled SWI/SNF complexes in the absence of SMARCB1. Upon depletion of DCAF5, SMARCB1-deficient SWI/SNF complexes re-accumulate, bind to target loci, and restore SWI/SNF-mediated gene expression to levels sufficient to reverse the cancer state, including in vivo. Consequently, cancer results not from the loss of SMARCB1 function per se but rather from DCAF5-mediated degradation of SWI/SNF complexes. These data indicate that therapeutic targeting of ubiquitin-mediated quality control factors may effectively reverse the malignant state of some cancers driven by disruption of tumor suppressor complexes.

Project description:Dysfunction of epigenetic modulators such as the SWI/SNF complex is involved in a wide spectrum of cancer entities, yet their precise role in carcinogenesis is not clear to date Among SWI/SNF-mutant entities, SMARCB1-deficient cancers such as Epithelioid Sarcoma (EpS) are characterized by this genetic event in an otherwise rather silent mutational landscape. However, its oncogenic role remains unclear. Here, we generate a panel of SMARCB1 re-expressing Epithelioid Sarcoma (EpS) cell lines and employ a functional multi-omics approach to characterize and compare the function of the residual SMARCB1-deficient and the physiological SWI/SNF complex in EpS. We show that SWI/SNF holds canonical characteristics of both tumor-suppressors and proto-oncogenes due to its multi-faceted role in the regulation of the epigenome. Our data indicates that the loss of SMARCB1 causes an overall loss of SWI/SNF chromatin affinity at cis-regulatory enhancer elements, inducing a preference for uncontrolled proliferation and cell cycle progression as opposed to development and differentiation. As epigenetic regulation is a dynamic complex, we further demonstrate that EpS cell lines depend on continuous residual SWI/SNF action to maintain clonogenicity and proliferation. Consequently, our models exhibit markedly increased sensitivity to pharmacological inhibition of the residual SWI/SNF when compared with SWI/SNF-proficient cancer entities. Collectively, our results shed new light on the pleiotropic, deregulated pathways upon SWI/SNF dysfunction in EpS and provide inroads for further therapeutic approaches.

Project description:While oncogenes can potentially be inhibited with small molecules, the loss of tumor suppressors is more common and presents a conundrum for precision therapy because the proteins are no longer present. SMARCB1-mutant cancers epitomize this challenge because these highly lethal cancers are driven by inactivation of a single gene, a subunit of SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes. To generate mechanistic insight into the consequences of SMARCB1 mutation and to seek vulnerabilities, we contributed 16 SMARCB1-mutant cell lines to a near-genomewide CRISPR screen as part of the Cancer Dependency Map1-3. Here we report that the little-studied gene DCAF5 (DDB1-CUL4 Associated Factor 5) is a specific dependency in SMARCB1-mutant cancers. We show that DCAF5 serves a quality control function for SWI/SNF complexes and in the absence of SMARCB1 DCAF5 causes degradation of incompletely assembled SWI/SNF complexes. Upon inhibition of DCAF5 SMARCB1-deficient SWI/SNF complexes re-accumulate, bind to target loci, and restore gene expression to levels sufficient to fully reverse the cancer state, including in a xenograft mouse model. Consequently, cancer results not from the loss of SMARCB1 function per se but rather from DCAF5-mediated degradation of SWI/SNF complexes. These data indicate that therapeutic targeting of DCAF5 may be sufficient to restore substantial SWI/SNF function and reverse cancer phenotypes caused by SMARCB1 loss.

Project description:SMARCB1 (SNF5/INI1/BAF47), a core subunit of the SWI/SNF (BAF) chromatin remodeling complex, is inactivated in nearly all pediatric rhabdoid tumors. These aggressive cancers are among the most genomically stable, suggesting an epigenetic mechanism by which SMARCB1 loss drives transformation. Here, we show that despite indistinguishable mutational landscapes, human RTs show distinct enhancer H3K27ac signatures, which reveal remnants of differentiation programs. We show that SMARCB1 is required for the integrity of SWI/SNF complexes and that its loss alters enhancer targeting markedly impairing SWI/SNF binding to typical enhancers, particularly those required for differentiation, while maintaining SWI/SNF binding at super-enhancers. We show that these retained super-enhancers are essential for rhabdoid tumor survival, including some that are shared across all subtypes, such as SPRY1, and other lineage-specific super-enhancers like SOX2 in brain-derived RTs. Taken together, our findings reveal a novel chromatin-based epigenetic mechanism underlying the tumor suppressive activity of SMARCB1.
