Genetic perturbation of the ubiquitin proteasome system is an emerging hallmark of B- 41 cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL). 42 2. Co-occurring sets of genetic alterations define B-NHL subtypes and likely represent 43 epistatic interactions. 44 45 ABSTRACT 46 B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL) encompasses multiple clinically and phenotypically 47 distinct subtypes of malignancy with unique molecular etiologies. Common subtypes of B-NHL 48 such as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) have been comprehensively interrogated at the 49 genomic level, but other less common subtypes such as mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) remain 50 sparsely characterized. Furthermore, multiple B-NHL subtypes have thus far not been 51 comprehensively compared to identify conserved or subtype-specific patterns of genomic 52 alterations. Here, we employed a large targeted hybrid-capture sequencing approach 53 encompassing 380 genes to interrogate the genomic landscapes of 755 B-NHL tumors at high 54 depth; primarily including DLBCL, MCL, follicular lymphoma (FL), and Burkitt lymphoma (BL). 55 We identified conserved hallmarks of B-NHL that were deregulated across major subtypes, such 56 as the frequent genetic deregulation of the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS). In addition, we 57 identified subtype-specific patterns of genetic alterations, including clusters of co-occurring 58 mutations that are pathognomonic. The cumulative burden of mutations within a single cluster 59 were more significantly discriminatory of B-NHL subtypes than individual mutations, implicating 60 likely patterns of genetic epistasis that contribute to disease etiology. We therefore provide a 61 framework of co-occurring mutations that deregulate genetic hallmarks and likely cooperate in 62 lymphomagenesis of B-NHL subtypes. bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/674259; this version posted June 19, 2019.

Although mature B-cell neoplasms 66 encompass 38 unique diagnostic subtypes, over 85% of cases fall within only 7 subtypes1,2. 67 Recent next generation sequencing (NGS) studies have shed light onto the key driver mutations 68 in many of these NHL subtypes; for example, large studies of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma 69 (DLBCL) have led to proposed genomic subtypes that have unique etiologies3-5. However, many 70 less-common NHL subtypes such as mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) have not been as extensively 71 characterized6,7. Furthermore, until recently3,4 genetic alterations have been considered in a 72 binary fashion as either driver events, which directly promote disease genesis or progression, or 73 passenger events, which have little or no impact on disease biology. In contrast to this principle, 74 most B-NHLs do not result from a single dominant driver but instead result from the serial 75 acquisition of genetic alterations that cooperate in lymphomagenesis. The genetic context of 76 each mutation therefore likely determines its oncogenic potential, and groups of mutations 77 should therefore be considered collectively rather than as singular events. For example, the ‘C5’ 78 and ‘MCD’ clusters identified in DLBCL by Chapuy et al. and Schmitz et al., respectively, are 79 characterized by the co-occurrence of CD79B and MYD88 mutations3,4. In animal models, the 80 Myd88 L265P mutation was found to promote down-regulation of surface IgM and a phenotype 81 resembling B-cell anergy8. However, this effect could be rescued by Cd79b mutation, showing 82 that these co-occurring mutations are epistatic8. The characterization of other significantly co- 83 occurring genetic alterations are therefore likely to reveal additional important epistatic 84 relationships. 85 86 We approached this challenge by performing genomic profiling of 755 B-NHLs across different 87 subtypes. Through this cross-sectional analysis we characterized genomic hallmarks of B-NHL bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/674259; this version posted June 19, 2019.

This study therefore 91 provides new insight into how cooperating genetic alterations may contribute to molecularly and 92 phenotypically distinct subtypes of B-NHL. 93 94 METHODS 95 An overview of our approach is shown in Figure S1. For detailed methods, please refer to 96 supplementary information. 97 98 Tumor DNA samples 99 We collected DNA for 755 B-NHL tumors, including 199 follicular lymphoma (FL), 196 mantle 100 cell lymphoma (MCL), 148 diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), 108 Burkitt’s lymphoma 101 (BL), 45 chronic lymphocytic leukemia / small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL), 24 marginal 102 zone lymphoma (MZL), 21 high-grade B-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified (HGBL-NOS), 103 and 14 high-grade B-cell lymphoma with MYC, BCL2 and/or BCL6 rearrangement (DHL) (Table 104 S1). A total of 502 samples were obtained from the University of Nebraska Medical Center, and 105 were prioritized for inclusion in this study if they had fresh/frozen tissue available (n=577) and 106 been previously interrogated by Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 gene expression microarrays 107 (n=290)9-11. An additional series of 178 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumors were 108 collected from other centers. Samples were de-identified but accompanied by their diagnosis 109 from medical records, plus overall survival time and status (alive, dead) when available. Medical 110 record diagnosis was used in all cases except for those with fluorescence in situ hybridization 111 showing translocations in MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6, which were amended to DHL. bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/674259; this version posted June 19, 2019.

    Deciphering the Functions of Ets2, Pten and p53 in Stromal Fibroblasts in Multiple Breast Cancer Models DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Julie Wallace Graduate Program in Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Michael C. Ostrowski, PhD, Advisor Gustavo Leone, PhD Denis Guttridge, PhD Dawn Chandler, PhD Copyright by Julie Wallace 2013 Abstract Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in American women, and is also the second leading cause of cancer death in women. It is estimated that nearly a quarter of a million new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed in women in the United States this year, and approximately 40,000 of these women will die from breast cancer. Although death rates have been on the decline for the past decade, there is still much we need to learn about this disease to improve prevention, detection and treatment strategies. The majority of early studies have focused on the malignant tumor cells themselves, and much has been learned concerning mutations, amplifications and other genetic and epigenetic alterations of these cells. However more recent work has acknowledged the strong influence of tumor stroma on the initiation, progression and recurrence of cancer. Under normal conditions this stroma has been shown to have protective effects against tumorigenesis, however the transformation of tumor cells manipulates this surrounding environment to actually promote malignancy. Fibroblasts in particular make up a significant portion of this stroma, and have been shown to impact various aspects of tumor cell biology.

However, the clinical significance of these alterations is still not well defined. In this study, we have integrated the analysis of targeted next-generation sequencing of 106 genes and genomic copy number alterations (CNA) in 150 DLBCL. The clinically significant findings were validated in an independent cohort of 111 patients. Germinal center B-cell and activated B-cell DLBCL had a differential profile of mutations, altered pathogenic pathways and CNA. Mutations in genes of the NOTCH pathway and tumor suppressor genes (TP53/CDKN2A), but not individual genes, conferred an unfavorable prognosis, confirmed in the independent validation cohort. A gene expression profiling analysis showed that tumors with NOTCH pathway mutations had a significant modulation of downstream target genes, emphasizing the relevance of this pathway in DLBCL.

Madan Babu1 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) allosterically activate heterotrimeric G proteins and trigger GDP release. Given that there are 800 human GPCRs and 16 different Ga genes, this raises the question of whether a universal allosteric mechanism governs Ga activation. Here we show that different GPCRs interact with and activate Ga proteins through a highly conserved mechanism. Comparison of Ga with the small G protein Ras reveals how the evolution of short segments that undergo disorder-to-order transitions can decouple regions important for allosteric activation from receptor binding specificity. This might explain how the GPCR–Ga system diversified rapidly, while conserving the allosteric activation mechanism. proteins bind guanine nucleotides and act as molecular switches almost 30 A˚ away from the GDP binding region5 and allosterically trig- in a number of signalling pathways by interconverting between ger GDP release to activate them. 1,2 G a GDP-bound inactive and a GTP-bound active state .

In humans, this system includes more than 800 various GPCRs and a large set of heterotrimeric G proteins. Complexity of this system goes far beyond a multitude of pair-wise ligand–GPCR and GPCR–G protein interactions. In fact, one GPCR can recognize more than one extracellular signal and interact with more than one G protein. Furthermore, one ligand can activate more than one GPCR, and multiple GPCRs can couple to the same G protein. This defnes an intricate multifunctionality of this important signaling system. Here, we show that the multifunctionality of GPCR–G protein system represents an illustrative example of the protein structure–function continuum, where structures of the involved proteins represent a complex mosaic of diferently folded regions (foldons, non-foldons, unfoldons, semi-foldons, and inducible foldons). The functionality of resulting highly dynamic conformational ensembles is fne-tuned by various post-translational modifcations and alternative splicing, and such ensembles can undergo dramatic changes at interaction with their specifc partners.
