We found RUNX1 is a target of AR and regulated positively by androgen.

To enable specific functional predictions, we categorized cellular proteins regulated 17 by HIV according to their patterns of temporal expression. We focussed on proteins depleted 18 with similar kinetics to APOBEC3C, and found the viral accessory protein Vif to be 19 necessary and sufficient for CUL5-dependent proteasomal degradation of all members of the 20 B56 family of regulatory subunits of the key cellular phosphatase PP2A (PPP2R5A-E). 21 Quantitative phosphoproteomic analysis of HIV-infected cells confirmed Vif-dependent 22 hyperphosphorylation of >200 cellular proteins, particularly substrates of the aurora kinases. 23 The ability of Vif to target PPP2R5 subunits is found in primate and non-primate lentiviral 2 24 lineages, and remodeling of the cellular phosphoproteome is therefore a second ancient and 25 conserved Vif function.

  • Inhibition of HIF1` Signaling: a Grand Slam for MDS Therapy?
    VIEWS IN THE SPOTLIGHT Inhibition of HIF1` Signaling: A Grand Slam for MDS Therapy? Jiahao Chen and Ulrich Steidl Summary: The recent focus on genomics in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) has led to important insights and revealed a daunting genetic heterogeneity, which is presenting great challenges for clinical treatment and preci- sion oncology approaches in MDS. Hayashi and colleagues show that multiple mutations frequently found in MDS activate HIF1α signaling, which they also found to be suffi cient to induce overt MDS in mice. Furthermore, both genetic and pharmacologic inhibition of HIF1α suppressed MDS development with only mild effects on normal hematopoiesis, implicating HIF1α signaling as a promising therapeutic target to tackle the heterogeneity of MDS.

    Leukemia (2014) 28, 770–778 OPEN & 2014 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0887-6924/14 www.nature.com/leu ORIGINAL ARTICLE CBFB–MYH11/RUNX1 together with a compendium of hematopoietic regulators, chromatin modifiers and basal transcription factors occupies self-renewal genes in inv(16) acute myeloid leukemia A Mandoli1, AA Singh1, PWTC Jansen2, ATJ Wierenga3,4, H Riahi1, G Franci5, K Prange1, S Saeed1, E Vellenga3, M Vermeulen2, HG Stunnenberg1 and JHA Martens1 Different mechanisms for CBFb–MYH11 function in acute myeloid leukemia with inv(16) have been proposed such as tethering of RUNX1 outside the nucleus, interference with transcription factor complex assembly and recruitment of histone deacetylases, all resulting in transcriptional repression of RUNX1 target genes. Here, through genome-wide CBFb–MYH11-binding site analysis and quantitative interaction proteomics, we found that CBFb–MYH11 localizes to RUNX1 occupied promoters, where it interacts with TAL1, FLI1 and TBP-associated factors (TAFs) in the context of the hematopoietic transcription factors ERG, GATA2 and PU.1/SPI1 and the coregulators EP300 and HDAC1. Transcriptional analysis revealed that upon fusion protein knockdown, a small subset of the CBFb–MYH11 target genes show increased expression, confirming a role in transcriptional repression. However, the majority of CBFb–MYH11 target genes, including genes implicated in hematopoietic stem cell self-renewal such as ID1, LMO1 and JAG1, are actively transcribed and repressed upon fusion protein knockdown. Together these results suggest an essential role for CBFb–MYH11 in regulating the expression of genes involved in maintaining a stem cell phenotype. Leukemia (2014) 28, 770–778; doi:10.1038/leu.2013.257 Keywords: CBFb–MYH11; RUNX1; histone acetylation; acute myeloid leukemia; inv(16) INTRODUCTION Heterozygous Cbfb-Myh11 knock-in mice are embryonic lethal, Core-binding transcription factors (CBFs) have roles in stem cell with definitive hematopoiesis blocked at the stem-cell level.

Fully understanding these gene regulatory networks (GRNs) offers greater insight into the consequences of disease-causing perturbations than can be achieved by studying single TF binding events in isolation. Chromosomal translocations of the lysine methyltransferase 2A (KMT2A) gene produce KMT2A fusion proteins such as KMT2A-AFF1 (previously MLL-AF4), caus- ing poor prognosis acute lymphoblastic leukemias (ALLs) that sometimes relapse as acute myeloid leukemias (AMLs).
