Project description:Personalized Treatment of Sézary Syndrome through a CTLA4:CD28 Fusion
| PRJNA254083 | ENA
Project description:In this study, we characterize the fusion protein produced by the EPC1-PHF1 translocation in Low Grade Endometrial Stromal Sarcoma (LG-ESS) and Ossifying FibroMyxoid Tumors (OFMT). We express the fusion protein and necessary controls in K562 Cells. The fusion protein assembles a mega-complex harboring both NuA4/TIP60 and PRC2 subunits and enzymatic activities and leads to mislocalization of chromatin marks in the genome, linked to aberrant gene expression.

Project description:CTLA4-CD28 gene fusion has been reported to occur in diverse types of T-cell lymphoma. The fusion event is expected to convert inhibitory signals to activating signals promoting proliferation and potentially transformation of T-cells. To test the function of the CTLA4-CD28 fusion gene in vivo, we generated a murine model that expresses the gene in a T-cell specific manner. The transgenic mice show shorter life spans and inflammatory responses including lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly. T-cells show higher levels of activation and infiltrate various organs including skin and lung. T-cells, in particular CD4+ helper T-cells, were also readily transplanted to immunocompromised mice. Transcriptomic profiling revealed that the gene expression pattern in CD4+ cells most closely resembles that of adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL). Consistently, we detected supernumerary Foxp3+ cells in transgenic and transplanted mice. This is the first report demonstrating the transforming activity of the CTLA4-CD28 fusion gene in vivo, and this murine model should be useful in dissecting the molecular events subsequent to the mutation in ATLL.

Project description:Kynureninase is a member of a large family of catalytically diverse but structurally homologous pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) dependent enzymes known as the aspartate aminotransferase superfamily or alpha-family. The Homo sapiens and other eukaryotic constitutive kynureninases preferentially catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine to produce 3-hydroxyanthranilate and l-alanine, while l-kynurenine is the substrate of many prokaryotic inducible kynureninases. The human enzyme was cloned with an N-terminal hexahistidine tag, expressed, and purified from a bacterial expression system using Ni metal ion affinity chromatography. Kinetic characterization of the recombinant enzyme reveals classic Michaelis-Menten behavior, with a Km of 28.3 +/- 1.9 microM and a specific activity of 1.75 micromol min-1 mg-1 for 3-hydroxy-dl-kynurenine. Crystals of recombinant kynureninase that diffracted to 2.0 A were obtained, and the atomic structure of the PLP-bound holoenzyme was determined by molecular replacement using the Pseudomonas fluorescens kynureninase structure (PDB entry 1qz9) as the phasing model. A structural superposition with the P. fluorescens kynureninase revealed that these two structures resemble the "open" and "closed" conformations of aspartate aminotransferase. The comparison illustrates the dynamic nature of these proteins' small domains and reveals a role for Arg-434 similar to its role in other AAT alpha-family members. Docking of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine into the human kynureninase active site suggests that Asn-333 and His-102 are involved in substrate binding and molecular discrimination between inducible and constitutive kynureninase substrates.
