Project description:Ewing sarcomas harbor few mutations beyond the chromosomal translocation that initiates disease and the mechanistic basis for the metastasis of these tumors remains poorly understood. The epigenome of Ewing sarcoma (EWS) cells reflects the regulatory state of genes associated with the DNA binding activity of the fusion oncoproteins EWSR1::FLI1 or EWSR1::ERG. In this study, we examined the repressive activities of the EWSR1::FLI1/ERG fusion oncoproteins. Focusing on one of the repressed EWSR1::FLI1/ERG target genes, ETS1, we detected EWSR1::FLI1 binding and a H3K27me3 repressive mark at this locus. Depletion of EWSR1::FLI1 results in ETS1’s binding of promoter regions, and we show ETS1 regulates the expression of multiple proteins that function in extracellular matrix organization including TENSIN3 (TSN3). Interestingly, TSN3 expression in EWS tumors significantly correlates with that of ETS1 (0.85, FDR <0.01). TNS3 is a focal adhesion protein that contributes to tumor cell migration by connecting the cytoplasmic tail of integrins to the actin cytoskeleton. EWS cell lines, in which we activated ETS1 expression (CRISPRa) exhibited increased TNS3 expression and a migratory phenotype. Critically, the activated ETS1 EWS cell lines show TNS3 accumulation at leading cell edges, with F-actin cytoskeletal reorganization, a phenotype associated with cell migration.

Project description:Pediatric malignancies frequently harbor chromosomal translocations that induce expression of fusion oncoproteins. The EWSR1-FLI1 fusion oncoprotein acts as a neomorphic transcription factor and is the dominant genetic driver of Ewing’s sarcoma. However, interrogation of the mechanisms by which EWSR1-FLI1 drives tumorigenesis has been limited by a lack of model systems to precisely and selectively control its expression in patient-derived cell lines and xenografts. Here, we report the generation of a panel of patient-derived EWS cell lines in which inducible protein degrons have been engineered into the endogenous EWSR1-FLI1 locus. These systems enable precise control of EWSR1-FLI1 expression and the timing of oncoprotein depletion. We establish that complete suppression of EWSR1-FLI1 leads to a reversible cell cycle arrest at the G1-S phase transition, and we identify a core set of transcripts downstream of EWSR1-FLI1 across multiple cell lines and degron systems. Additionally, depletion of EWSR1-FLI1 using this system potently suppresses tumor growth in xenograft models validating efforts to directly target EWSR1-FLI1 in Ewing’s sarcoma.

Project description:• Abstract: FET fusion oncoproteins, containing the N-terminal of a FET protein (FUS, EWSR1 and TAF15) together with a DNA-binding transcription factor partner, are characteristic for around 20 different sarcomas and leukemias, including myxoid liposarcoma (MLS) and Ewing sarcoma (EWS). FET oncoproteins interact with all three main subtypes of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes cBAF, PBAF and GBAF, resulting in epigenetic changes and oncogenic gene expression patterns. We developed a comprehensive immunoprecipitation (IP) protocol followed by quantitative mass spectrometry (QMS) analysis using a global approach for relative quantification with chemical tandem mass tag (TMT) labels. We employed two immunoprecipitation strategies, by pulling down either all SWI/SNF complexes using BRG1 as a target or FET-FOP-bound SWI/SNF complexes using the fusion oncoproteins FUS-DDIT3 or EWSR1-FLI1 as a target. This approach allowed us to assess differences between SWI/SNF composition and interaction partners in MLS and EWS cells, as well as determine the composition and interactome of FET-FOP-bound SWI/SNF complexes.

Project description:Ewing sarcoma, a rare and aggressive pediatric cancer, is characterized by chromosomal translocations that give rise to chimeric transcription factors. The most frequent of these chromosomal translocations is the t(11;22) that produces the fusion of the EWSR1 and FLI1 genes to generate the chimeric transcription factor EWSR1::FLI1. EWSR1::FLI1 is the main oncogenic event in Ewing's sarcoma. Recently, it has been proposed that EWSR1::FLI1 levels may fluctuate in Ewing sarcoma cells, giving rise to two cell populations: cells expressing low levels of EWSR1::FLI1 are characterized by a more migratory and invasive phenotype, while cells expressing high levels of EWSR1::FLI1 are more proliferative. The identification and functional characterization of EWSR1::FLI1 gene targets is therefore relevant to understanding the pathobiology of Ewing sarcoma, which in turn could contribute to the identification of new therapeutic targets. Using this approach, we have observed that CD44, a transmembrane protein involved in cell adhesion and migration and associated with metastasis in various cancer types, is overexpressed in the EWSR1::FLI1-low phenotype. Our results suggest that CD44 may play a role in regulating cell migration in Ewing sarcoma cells and thus contribute to the spread of tumor cells.
