Project description:We investigated the interactions of AATF/Che1 with paraspeckles complex in Multiple Myeloma(MM) cells by looking at its relationship with lncRNA NEAT1_1(NEAT1) and the essential paraspeckles proteins. By analyzing ChIP- and ChIRP-sequencing of MM cells, we assessed that the interaction between AATF/Che1 and NEAT1 occurs also onto DNA and detected the sites where they co-localize. To better characterize the interaction, we studied the effects of interfering AATF/Che1 or NEAT1 on co-localizing sites through ChIP-seq with NEAT1 interfered (GapmerNEAT1) and ChIRP-seq with AATF/Che1 interfered (siChe). We found that NEAT1 is essential in maintaining the paraspeckles complex onto those sites. Moreover, by exploring DRIP-seq data with siChe, we also detected that AATF/Che1 and NEAT1 localize on R-loops, RNA:DNA hybrid structure involved in DNA transcription and repair. A depletion of AATF/Che1 causes a further increase of those hybrid structures and the activation of the immune response in MM, in particular the interferon (IFN) activation. To further explore these findings, we performed RNA-seq with siChe and GapmerNEAT1 which confirm that AATF/Che-1 down-regulation induces a strong up-regulation of genes involved in IFN response.

Project description:Several kinds of stress promote the formation of three-stranded RNA:DNA hybrids called R-loops. Insufficient clearance of these structures promotes genomic instability and DNA damage, which ultimately contribute to the establishment of cancer phenotypes. Paraspeckle assemblies participate in R-loop resolution and preserve genome stability, however, the main determinants of this mechanism are still unknown. This study finds that in Multiple Myeloma (MM), AATF/Che-1 (Che-1), an RNA-binding protein fundamental to transcription regulation, interacts with paraspeckles via the lncRNA NEAT1_2 (NEAT1) and directly localizes on R-loops. We systematically show that depletion of Che-1 produces a marked accumulation of RNA:DNA hybrids. We provide evidence that such failure to resolve R-loops causes sustained activation of a systemic inflammatory response characterized by an interferon (IFN) gene expression signature. Furthermore, elevated levels of R-loops and of mRNA for paraspeckle genes in patient cells are linearly correlated with Multiple Myeloma progression. Moreover, increased interferon gene expression signature in patients is associated with markedly poor prognosis. Taken together, our study indicates that Che-1/NEAT1 cooperation prevents excessive inflammatory signaling in Multiple Myeloma by facilitating the clearance of R-loops. Further studies on different cancer types are needed to test if this mechanism is ubiquitously conserved and fundamental for cell homeostasis.

Project description:Tumor transformation is the result of genetic modifications that alter gene transcription, thus producing a specific oncogenic program. However, in recent years, several exciting discoveries have shown that also aberrant epigenetic modifications play a major role in the genesis and progression of cancer. Multiple myeloma (MM) is a cancerous pathology resulting from the clonal expansion of plasma cells, and characterized by abnormal production and secretion of antibody proteins. This disease shows a great heterogeneity, caused by both genetic and epigenetic abnormalities, and despite the numerous therapeutic advances remains an incurable pathology. Here we show that the RNA Polymerase II binding protein, Che-1/AATF is required for MM cells growth by sustaining genome wide transcription and the recruitment of Pol II to the DNA. Notably, we found that Che-1 localizes on active chromatin and its depletion leads to accumulation of heterochromatin by a global decrease of histone acetylation. Moreover, we show that Che-1 directly interacts with histones and competes with HDAC class I members for histones binding. Strikingly, Che-1 downregulation decreases BRD4 chromatin accumulation and further sensitize MM cells to bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) inhibitors. Overall, our findings identify an essential role of Che-1 in maintaining open chromatin required for sustaining MM growth, and support Che-1 as a possible target for MM therapy, alone or in combination with BET inhibitors.

Project description:Che-1 is a RNA Polymerase II binding protein involved in the regulation of gene transcription. Che-1 emerges as an important adaptor that connects transcriptional regulation, cell-cycle progression, checkpoint control, and apoptosis. We have observed that Che-1 depletion sensitizes cells to chemotherapy. We used microarrays analysis to investigate classes of genes regulated by Che-1. Total RNA was extracted from control and Che-1 depleted HCT 116 cells 48 hours after transient transfection of siRNA.

Project description:Multiple myeloma is a hematological neoplasm of plasma cells characterized by an abnormal production of immunoglobulins. Che-1/AATF (Che-1) is an RNA binding protein involved in transcription regulation and highly expressed in this malignancy. In order to better characterize its functions in this type of disease, we performed co-immunoprecipitation experiments coupled with a mass-spec analysis by using total MM Kms27 cell lysates. From this analysis we were able to identify more than 600 proteins significantly enriched in Che-1 precipitates. As expected from its role in ribosomal RNA maturation, the Che-1 interactome contains numerous proteins involved in pre-rRNA processing and several ribosomal proteins. Notably, among other proteins interacting with Che-1, we identified many essential components of the paraspeckle which play an important role in the regulation of gene expression.

Project description:AATF is a predominantly nuclear protein that has been shown to be an apoptosis-inhibiting factor essential for both embryonic development and tumor growth. Several studies have shown a role of AATF in the modulation of pivotal cellular signal transduction pathways such as p53-, mTOR- and HIF-signaling. However, the exact molecular functions underlying its essential nature to cell proliferation and survival have remained elusive. Interestingly, several lines of evidence point towards a pivotal role of this protein in ribosome biogenesis and the maturation of ribosomal RNA. The function of AATF in this process is not clear, especially since the identity of the RNA-binding protein that links the AATF-containing protein complex (ANN) to rRNA precursors is unknown. In this study, we identify AATF in a screen for RNA-binding proteins. Importantly, AATF does not only bind to polyA-tailed RNA but CLIP-experiments reveal its association with ribosomal RNA. The RNA-binding domain of AATF is essential to maintain its positive effect on cellular rRNA levels. Furthermore, AATF binds to both mRNAs encoding for ribosome biogenesis factors as well as proteins involved with this process indicating AATF to be a central hub for the coordination of ribosome maturation. Consequently, our data for the first time identify the molecular basis to the role of AATF in ribosome biosynthesis and corroborate the link between tumorigenesis and ribosome biology.
