Synthetic introns enable mutation-dependent targeting of cancer cells

Project description:Many cancers carry recurrent change-of-function mutations in RNA splicing factor genes, which induce sequence-specific changes in RNA splicing. Here, we describe a method to harness this change in RNA splicing activity to drive splicing factor mutation-dependent gene expression in cancers and selectively eliminate these tumors. We engineered synthetic introns which were efficiently spliced in leukemia and breast epithelial cells bearing the most common SF3B1 mutations, but unspliced in wild-type cells—and vice versa—to yield mutation-dependent protein production. A massively parallel screen of 8,881 distinct introns delineated ideal intronic size, mapped essential sequence elements, and revealed the basis of mutation-dependent splicing. Synthetic introns enabled mutation-dependent expression of herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase and subsequent ganciclovir-mediated elimination of leukemia and breast epithelial cells bearing SF3B1 mutations, while leaving wild-type cells unaffected. This approach significantly decreased the growth of otherwise lethal leukemia xenografts and correspondingly improved host survival. The modular, compact, and specific nature of synthetic introns thereby provide a means to exploit cancer-specific changes in RNA splicing for genotype-dependent gene expression and gene therapy.

Synthetic introns enable splicing factor mutation-dependent targeting of cancer cells.

Project description:Many cancers carry recurrent, change-of-function mutations affecting RNA splicing factors. Here, we describe a method to harness this abnormal splicing activity to drive splicing factor mutation-dependent gene expression to selectively eliminate tumor cells. We engineered synthetic introns that were efficiently spliced in cancer cells bearing SF3B1 mutations, but unspliced in otherwise isogenic wild-type cells, to yield mutation-dependent protein production. A massively parallel screen of 8,878 introns delineated ideal intronic size and mapped elements underlying mutation-dependent splicing. Synthetic introns enabled mutation-dependent expression of herpes simplex virus-thymidine kinase (HSV-TK) and subsequent ganciclovir (GCV)-mediated killing of SF3B1-mutant leukemia, breast cancer, uveal melanoma and pancreatic cancer cells in vitro, while leaving wild-type cells unaffected. Delivery of synthetic intron-containing HSV-TK constructs to leukemia, breast cancer and uveal melanoma cells and GCV treatment in vivo significantly suppressed the growth of these otherwise lethal xenografts and improved mouse host survival. Synthetic introns provide a means to exploit tumor-specific changes in RNA splicing for cancer gene therapy.

Genome-wide CRISPR screen identifies cell cycle as a synthetic lethal pathway with SRSF2P95H mutation

Project description:Current strategies to target RNA splicing mutant myeloid cancers propose disruption of normal splicing activity by targeting the splicing apparatus therapeutically. This approach is only modestly sensitizing and is also toxic to non-mutant bearing wild-type cells. To explore potentially exploitable genetic interactions with spliceosome mutations, we combined data mining and functional screening for synthetic lethal interactions with an Srsf2P95H/+ mutation. Analysis of mis-splicing events in a series of both human and murine SRSF2P95H mutant samples across multiple myeloid diseases (AML, MDS, CMML) was first performed to identify conserved mis-splicing events. From this analysis, we identified that the DNA repair and cell cycle pathways were overrepresented within the conserved mis-spliced transcript sets. In parallel, to functionally define pathways essential for survival and proliferation Srsf2P95H/+ cells, we performed a genome-wide pooled CRISPR loss of function screen using Hoxb8 immortalised R26-CreERki/+ Srsf2P95H/+ and R26-CreERki/+ Srsf2+/+ cell lines. We assessed for loss of sgRNA representation at three timepoints: immediately after Srsf2P95H/+ activation, and at one week and two weeks post Srsf2P95H/+ mutation. Pathway analysis demonstrated that the DNA damage response and cell cycle pathways were amongst the top synthetic lethal pathways with Srsf2P95H/+ mutation., Based on the loss of guide RNAs targeting Cdk6, we identified that Palbocilib, a CDK6 inhibitor, showed preferential sensitivity in Srsf2P95H/+ cell lines and in primary non-immortalised lin-cKIT+Sca-1+ cells compared to wild type controls. Our data strongly suggest that cell cycle and DNA damage response pathways are required for Srsf2P95H/+ cell survival, and that Palbociclib could be an alternative therapeutic option for targeting SRSF2 mutant myeloid cancers.

Targeting EZH2 methyltransferase activity in ARID1A mutated cells as a synthetic lethal therapeutic strategy

Project description:ARID1A, an epigentic modifier, is often mutated in ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC). In addition, EZH2 is frequently upregulated in OCCC. Inhibtion of EZH2 with an inhibitor (GSK126) selectively inhibits ARID1A-mutated cells. This study was designed to understand changes in gene expression profiles following EZH2 inhibition or ARID1A restoration. Chromatin remodelers such as ARID1A are frequently mutated in a broad array of cancers. However, targeted cancer therapy based on ARID1A mutation status has not been described. Intriguingly, ARID1A mutated cancers typically lack genomic instability, suggesting significant involvement of epigenetic mechanisms. Here we show that inhibition of the EZH2 methyltransferase acts in a synthetic lethal manner in ARID1A mutated cells. Remarkably, ARID1A mutation status correlated with response to EZH2 inhibitor. Genome-wide profiling revealed antagonistic roles of ARID1A and EZH2 in gene regulation. Further, we identified PIK3IP1 as a direct ARID1A/EZH2 target gene whose upregulation contributes to the observed synthetic lethality in the EZH2 inhibitor treated ARID1A mutated cells. Significantly, EZH2 inhibitor caused the regression of established ARID1A mutated tumors in vivo. Together, this data demonstrate a synthetic lethality between ARID1A mutation and EZH2 inhibition. They indicate that pharmacological inhibition of EZH2 represents a novel treatment strategy for ARID1A mutated cancers.

Synthetic Introns Identify GPATCH8 as Required for Mis-splicing by SF3B1 Mutations [TRIBE-seq]

Project description:Mutations in the RNA splicing factor SF3B1 are common across hematologic and solid cancers and result in widespread alterations in splicing but therapeutic means to correct this mis-splicing do not exist. Here we utilize synthetic introns uniquely responsive to mutant SF3B1 to identify trans factors required for aberrant mutant SF3B1 splicing activity. This revealed the G-patch domain containing protein GPATCH8 as required for mutant SF3B1-induced splicing alterations and impaired hematopoiesis. GPATCH8 is involved in quality control of branchpoint selection, interacts with the RNA helicase DHX15, and functionally opposes SUGP1, a G-patch protein recently implicated in SF3B1 mutant diseases. Silencing of GPATCH8 corrected one-third of mutant SF3B1 splicing defects and was sufficient to improve hematopoiesis in SF3B1 mutant mouse and human cells. These data identify GPATCH8 as a novel splicing factor required for mis-splicing by mutant SF3B1 and the therapeutic impact of correcting aberrant splicing in SF3B1 mutant cancers.
