Project description:C57BL6 mice harboring Sirt1 conditional knockout NOTCH1-DE-induced leukemias were treated with vehicle (control) or tamoxifen to induce isogenic deletion of Sirt1. Here we report the H4K12ac ChIP-seq epigenetic profile of leukemic blasts obtained from the spleen from control- or tamoxifen-treated leukemic mice.

Project description:To investigate the proteins bound to KAT7 in response to DNA damage, we harvested and extracted proteins after treating HCT116 with etoposide. The KAT7 protein and its binding protein were immunoprecipitated using KAT7-specific antibodies and analyzed by mass spectrometry. The mass spectra provided clues to study the function of KAT7 during DNA damage stress.
Project description:Targeting the MYST acetyltransferases are an exciting therapeutic opportunity in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Here we define the individual and combined contribution of KAT6A, KAT6B and KAT7, in range of AML models showing that although KAT6A/B inhibition is efficacious in some pre-clinical models, simultaneous targeting of KAT7, with the novel inhibitor PF-9363, markedly increases efficacy. KAT7 interacts with Menin and the MLL complex and is co-localised at chromatin to co-regulate oncogenic transcriptional programs. Focusing on MLL fusion oncoprotein (MLL-FP) AML, we show that inhibition of KAT6/KAT7 provides an orthogonal route to targeting Menin to disable the transcriptional activity of the MLL-FP. Combined inhibition rapidly evicts the MLL-FP from chromatin, potently represses oncogenic transcription and overcomes primary resistance to Menin inhibitors. Notably, KAT7 remains an important targetable dependency in acquired genetic/non-genetic resistance to Menin inhibition providing the molecular rationale for rapid clinical translation of combination therapy, particularly in MLL-FP AML.

Project description:To identify the acylation modification site of KAT7 in response to DNA damage, we treated HCT116 cells with etoposide, extracted proteins and purified KAT7 protein with KAT-specific antibodies for mass spectrometry analysis.This mass spectrometry identified the level of acylation modification of KAT7 in response to DNA damage in HCT116 cell line.
