Project description:Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified a great number of non-coding risk variants for colorectal cancer (CRC). To date, the majority of these variants have not been functionally studied. Identification of allele-specific transcription factor (TF) binding is of great importance to understand regulatory consequences of such variants. A recently developed proteome-wide analysis of disease-associated SNPs (PWAS) enables identification of DNA-TF interactions in an unbiased fashion. Here, we performed a large-scale PWAS studies to comprehensively characterize TF binding related to CRC, which identified 731 allele-specific TF binding at 116 CRC risk loci. This screen identified rs1800734 within the promoter region of MLH1 as perturbing the binding of TFAP4 and consequently increaseing DCLK3 expression through a long-range interaction, which promotes cancer progression through enhancing expression of the genes related to epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Project description:Genome-wide association studies have identified over 70 common variants that are associated with breast cancer risk. Most of these variants map to non-protein-coding regions; several map to gene deserts, regions of several hundred kb lacking protein-coding genes. We hypothesized that gene deserts harbour long-range regulatory elements that can physically interact with target genes to influence their expression. To test this, we developed Capture Hi-C (CHi-C), which by incorporating a sequence capture step into a Hi-C protocol, allows high-resolution analysis of targeted regions of the genome. We used CHi-C to investigate long-range interactions at three breast cancer gene deserts mapping to 2q35, 8q24.21 and 9q31.2. We identified interaction peaks between putative regulatory elements ("bait fragments") within the captured regions and "targets" that included both protein-coding genes and long non-coding (lnc)RNAs, over distances of 6.6 kb to 2.6 Mb. Target protein-coding genes were IGFBP5, KLF4, NSMCE2 and MYC; target lncRNAs included DIRC3, PVT1 and CCDC26. For two gene deserts we were able to define a set of SNPs that were correlated with the published risk variant and that clustered within the bait end of an interaction peak. Preliminary functional analyses implicate one SNP (rs12613955; 2q35) as a potentially functional variant. Capture Hi-C was carried out in BT483, SUM44, and GM06990 cell lines to investigate breast cancer risk loci 2q35, 8q24.21 and 9q31.2.

Project description:The neurobiological functions of a number of kinases expressed in the brain are unknown. Here, we report new findings on DCLK3 (Doublecortin-like kinase 3) which is preferentially expressed in neurons in the striatum and dentate gyrus. Its function has never been investigated. DCLK3 expression is markedly reduced in Huntington's disease. Recent data obtained in studies related to cancer suggest DCLK3 could have anti-apoptotic effect. Thus, we hypothesized that early loss of DCLK3 in Huntington's disease may render striatal neurons more susceptible to mutant huntingtin (mHtt). We discovered that DCLK3 silencing in the striatum of mice exacerbated the toxicity of an N-terminal fragment of mHtt. Conversely, overexpression of DCLK3 reduced neurodegeneration produced by mHtt. DCLK3 also produced beneficial effects on motor symptoms in a knock-in mouse model of Huntington's disease. Using different mutants of DCLK3, we found that the kinase activity of the protein plays a key role in neuroprotection. To investigate the potential mechanisms underlying DCLK3 effects, we studied the transcriptional changes produced by the kinase domain in human striatal neurons in culture. Results show that DCLK3 regulates in a kinase-dependent manner the expression of many genes involved in transcription regulation and nucleosome/chromatin remodeling. Consistent with this, histological evaluation showed DCLK3 is present in the nucleus of striatal neurons and, protein-protein interaction experiments suggested that the kinase domain interacts with zinc finger proteins, including TADA3, a core component of SAGA complex. Our novel findings suggest that the presence of DCLK3 in striatal neurons may play a key role in transcription regulation and chromatin remodeling in these brain cells, and show that reduced expression of the kinase in Huntington’s disease could render the striatum highly vulnerable to neurodegeneration. Examination of DCLK3 as neuroprotector against mutant huntingtin in vivo and in vitro models.

Project description:Non-coding variants coordinate transcription factor (TF) binding and chromatin mark enrichment changes over regions spanning >100 kb. We named these molecularly coordinated regions “variable chromatin modules” (VCMs), providing a conceptual framework of how regulatory variation might shape complex traits. To better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying VCM formation, here, we mechanistically dissect an uncharacterized VCM-modulating non-coding variant that is associated with reduced chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) predisposition and disease progression. This common, germline variant constitutes a 5-bp indel that controls the activity of an AXIN2 gene-linked VCM by creating a MEF2 binding site, which, upon binding, activates a super-enhancer-like regulatory element. This triggers a big change in TF binding activity and chromatin state at an enhancer cluster spanning >150 kb, coinciding with long-range chromatin compaction and AXIN2 up-regulation. Our results support a model in which the indel acts as an AXIN2 VCM-activating TF nucleation event, which modulates CLL pathology.

Project description:Oxaliplatin (L-OHP) serves as a standard chemotherapy for colorectal cancer, while the drug resistance is still a considerable challenge. A number of previously unknown transcripts have been identified in recent years, the vast majority of which are considered long non-coding RNA (lncRNA). Dysregulation of the lncRNA is involved in the genesis and progression of cancer. This RNA-seq was a paired-end sequencing and aimed to investigate the expression profile of lncRNA associated with oxaliplatin resistance in colorectal cancer.

Project description:Small RNAs target their complementary chromatin regions for gene silencing through nascent long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). In programmed DNA elimination of the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena, the interaction between Piwi-associated small RNA (scnRNAs) and the lncRNA transcripts from the somatic genome has been proposed to induce target-directed scnRNA degradation (TDSD) and scnRNAs not targeted for TDSD later target the germline-limited sequences for DNA elimination. In this study, we show that the SUMO E3 ligase Ema2 is required for the accumulation of lncRNAs from somatic genome, and thus for TDSD and completing DNA elimination to make viable sexual progeny. Ema2 interacts with the SUMO E2 conjugating enzyme Ubc9 and enhances SUMOylation of the transcription regulator Spt6. We further show that Ema2 promotes the association of Spt6 and RNA polymerase II to chromatin. These results suggest that Ema2-directed SUMOylation actively promotes the lncRNA transcription that is a prerequisite for communication between the genome and small RNAs.

Project description:Gene transcription can be regulated by remote enhancer regions through chromosome looping either in cis or in trans. Cancer cells are characterized by wholesale changes in long-range gene interactions, but the role that these long-range interactions play in cancer progression and metastasis is not well understood. In this study, we used IGFBP3, a gene involved in breast cancer pathogenesis, as bait in a 4C-seq experiment comparing normal breast cells (HMEC) with two breast cancer cell lines (MCF7, an ER positive cell line, and MDA-MB-231, a triple negative cell line). The IGFBP3 long-range interaction profile was substantially altered in breast cancer. Many interactions seen in normal breast cells are lost and novel interactions appear in cancer lines. We found that in HMEC, the breast carcinoma amplified sequence gene family (BCAS) 1-4 were among the top 10 most significantly enriched regions of interaction with IGFBP3. 3D-FISH analysis indicated that the translocation-prone BCAS genes, which are located on chromosomes 1, 17 and 20, are in close physical proximity with IGFBP3 and each other in normal breast cells. We also found that epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), a gene implicated in tumorigenesis, interacts significantly with IGFBP3 and that this interaction may play a role in their regulation. Breakpoint analysis suggests that the interchromosomal rearrangements seen in the MCF7 cancer cell line involve regions that engage in long-range interactions in normal breast cells. Overall, our data from multiple lines of evidence suggest an important role for long-range chromosomal interactions in the pathogenesis of cancer.

Project description:CCAT1-L is a highly expressed long noncoding RNA located in the colorectal cancer specific super enhance region about 500 kb upstream of MYC gene. Knockdown of CCAT1-L significantly down-regulated interaction frequency between CCAT1 and MYC locus and repress MYC expression, suggesting a long-range chromatin interaction between CCAT1-L and MYC locus maintained by CCAT1-L underlie the MYC regulation. To further validate this hypothesis, multiplexed 3C sequencing (3C-seq) was employed to evaluate chromatin interaction strength between CCAT1-L and MYC locus in CCAT1-L knockdown and scramble knockdown (Scr) HT29 cells.
