  • Mutational Landscape Differences Between Young-Onset and Older-Onset Breast Cancer Patients Nicole E
    Mealey et al. BMC Cancer (2020) 20:212 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12885-020-6684-z RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Mutational landscape differences between young-onset and older-onset breast cancer patients Nicole E. Mealey1 , Dylan E. O’Sullivan2 , Joy Pader3 , Yibing Ruan3 , Edwin Wang4 , May Lynn Quan1,5,6 and Darren R. Brenner1,3,5* Abstract Background: The incidence of breast cancer among young women (aged ≤40 years) has increased in North America and Europe. Fewer than 10% of cases among young women are attributable to inherited BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations, suggesting an important role for somatic mutations. This study investigated genomic differences between young- and older-onset breast tumours. Methods: In this study we characterized the mutational landscape of 89 young-onset breast tumours (≤40 years) and examined differences with 949 older-onset tumours (> 40 years) using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas. We examined mutated genes, mutational load, and types of mutations. We used complementary R packages “deconstructSigs” and “SomaticSignatures” to extract mutational signatures. A recursively partitioned mixture model was used to identify whether combinations of mutational signatures were related to age of onset. Results: Older patients had a higher proportion of mutations in PIK3CA, CDH1, and MAP3K1 genes, while young- onset patients had a higher proportion of mutations in GATA3 and CTNNB1. Mutational load was lower for young- onset tumours, and a higher proportion of these mutations were C > A mutations, but a lower proportion were C > T mutations compared to older-onset tumours. The most common mutational signatures identified in both age groups were signatures 1 and 3 from the COSMIC database.

  • Ultraconserved Elements Are Associated with Homeostatic Control of Splicing Regulators by Alternative Splicing and Nonsense-Mediated Decay
    Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on September 24, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Ultraconserved elements are associated with homeostatic control of splicing regulators by alternative splicing and nonsense-mediated decay Julie Z. Ni,1 Leslie Grate,1 John Paul Donohue,1 Christine Preston,2 Naomi Nobida,2 Georgeann O’Brien,2 Lily Shiue,1 Tyson A. Clark,3 John E. Blume,3 and Manuel Ares Jr.1,2,4 1Center for Molecular Biology of RNA and Department of Molecular, Cell, and Developmental Biology, University of California at Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz, California 95064, USA; 2Hughes Undergraduate Research Laboratory, University of California at Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz, California 95064, USA; 3Affymetrix, Inc., Santa Clara, California 95051, USA Many alternative splicing events create RNAs with premature stop codons, suggesting that alternative splicing coupled with nonsense-mediated decay (AS-NMD) may regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally. We tested this idea in mice by blocking NMD and measuring changes in isoform representation using splicing-sensitive microarrays. We found a striking class of highly conserved stop codon-containing exons whose inclusion renders the transcript sensitive to NMD. A genomic search for additional examples identified >50 such exons in genes with a variety of functions. These exons are unusually frequent in genes that encode splicing activators and are unexpectedly enriched in the so-called “ultraconserved” elements in the mammalian lineage. Further analysis show that NMD of mRNAs for splicing activators such as SR proteins is triggered by splicing activation events, whereas NMD of the mRNAs for negatively acting hnRNP proteins is triggered by splicing repression, a polarity consistent with widespread homeostatic control of splicing regulator gene expression.

  • Mrna Editing, Processing and Quality Control in Caenorhabditis Elegans
    | WORMBOOK mRNA Editing, Processing and Quality Control in Caenorhabditis elegans Joshua A. Arribere,*,1 Hidehito Kuroyanagi,†,1 and Heather A. Hundley‡,1 *Department of MCD Biology, UC Santa Cruz, California 95064, †Laboratory of Gene Expression, Medical Research Institute, Tokyo Medical and Dental University, Tokyo 113-8510, Japan, and ‡Medical Sciences Program, Indiana University School of Medicine-Bloomington, Indiana 47405 ABSTRACT While DNA serves as the blueprint of life, the distinct functions of each cell are determined by the dynamic expression of genes from the static genome. The amount and specific sequences of RNAs expressed in a given cell involves a number of regulated processes including RNA synthesis (transcription), processing, splicing, modification, polyadenylation, stability, translation, and degradation. As errors during mRNA production can create gene products that are deleterious to the organism, quality control mechanisms exist to survey and remove errors in mRNA expression and processing. Here, we will provide an overview of mRNA processing and quality control mechanisms that occur in Caenorhabditis elegans, with a focus on those that occur on protein-coding genes after transcription initiation. In addition, we will describe the genetic and technical approaches that have allowed studies in C. elegans to reveal important mechanistic insight into these processes.

  • An RNA-Seq Visualization Tool for Cancer Genomics Aaron R
    Shifman et al. BMC Genomics (2016) 17:75 DOI 10.1186/s12864-016-2389-8 SOFTWARE Open Access Cascade: an RNA-seq visualization tool for cancer genomics Aaron R. Shifman, Radia M. Johnson and Brian T. Wilhelm* Abstract Background: Cancer genomics projects are producing ever-increasing amounts of rich and diverse data from patient samples. The ability to easily visualize this data in an integrated an intuitive way is currently limited by the current software available. As a result, users typically must use several different tools to view the different data types for their cohort, making it difficult to have a simple unified view of their data. Results: Here we present Cascade, a novel web based tool for the intuitive 3D visualization of RNA-seq data from cancer genomics experiments. The Cascade viewer allows multiple data types (e.g. mutation, gene expression, alternative splicing frequency) to be simultaneously displayed, allowing a simplified view of the data in a way that is tuneable based on user specified parameters. The main webpage of Cascade provides a primary view of user data which is overlaid onto known biological pathways that are either predefined or added by users. A space-saving menu for data selection and parameter adjustment allows users to access an underlying MySQL database and customize the features presented in the main view. Conclusions: There is currently a pressing need for new software tools to allow researchers to easily explore large cancer genomics datasets and generate hypotheses. Cascade represents a simple yet intuitive interface for data visualization that is both scalable and customizable.

Rishi1,2,3 1John D. Dingell VA Medical Center, Wayne State University, Detroit, MI, USA 2Karmanos Cancer Institute, Wayne State University, Detroit, MI, USA 3Department of Oncology, Wayne State University, Detroit, MI, USA Correspondence to: Arun K. Rishi, e-mail: [email protected] Keywords: CARP-1/CCAR1, CFMs, apoptosis Received: December 23, 2014 Accepted: February 12, 2015 Published: March 24, 2015 ABSTRACT Targeted cancer therapy using small molecule inhibitors (SMIs) has been useful in targeting the tumor cells while sparing the normal cells. Despite clinical success of many targeted therapies, their off-target effects and development of resistance are emerging as significant and challenging problems. Thus, there is an urgent need to identify targets to devise new means to treat cancers and their drug-resistant phenotypes. CARP-1/CCAR1 (Cell division cycle and apoptosis regulator 1), a peri-nuclear phospho-protein, plays a dynamic role in regulating cell growth and apoptosis by serving as a co-activator of steroid/thyroid nuclear receptors, β-catenin, Anaphase Promoting Complex/Cyclosome (APC/C) E3 ligase, and tumor suppressor p53. CARP-1/CCAR1 also regulates chemotherapy-dependent apoptosis. CARP-1/ CCAR1 functional mimetics (CFMs) are a novel SMIs of CARP-1/CCAR1 interaction with APC/C. CFMs promote apoptosis in a manner independent of p53. CFMs are potent inhibitors of a variety of cancer cells including the drug (Adriamycin or Tamoxifen)- resistant breast cancer cells but not the immortalized breast epithelial cells, while a nano-lipid formulation of the lead compound CFM-4 improves its bioavailability and efficacyin vivo when administered orally.

  • Co-Expression Network Analysis Identifies a Gene Signature As A
    Zhu et al. Cancer Cell Int (2020) 20:259 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12935-020-01352-2 Cancer Cell International PRIMARY RESEARCH Open Access Co-expression network analysis identifes a gene signature as a predictive biomarker for energy metabolism in osteosarcoma Naiqiang Zhu1* , Jingyi Hou2, Guiyun Ma1, Shuai Guo1, Chengliang Zhao1 and Bin Chen1 Abstract Background: Osteosarcoma (OS) is a common malignant bone tumor originating in the interstitial tissues and occur- ring mostly in adolescents and young adults. Energy metabolism is a prerequisite for cancer cell growth, proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. However, the gene signatures associated with energy metabolism and their underlying molecular mechanisms that drive them are unknown. Methods: Energy metabolism-related genes were obtained from the TARGET database. We applied the “NFM” algo- rithm to classify putative signature gene into subtypes based on energy metabolism. Key genes related to progression were identifed by weighted co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). Based on least absolute shrinkage and selec- tion operator (LASSO) Cox proportional regression hazards model analyses, a gene signature for the predication of OS progression and prognosis was established. Robustness and estimation evaluations and comparison against other models were used to evaluate the prognostic performance of our model. Results: Two subtypes associated with energy metabolism was determined using the “NFM” algorithm, and signif- cant modules related to energy metabolism were identifed by WGCNA. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) suggested that the genes in the signifcant modules were enriched in kinase, immune metabolism processes, and metabolism-related pathways. We constructed a seven-gene signature consisting of SLC18B1, RBMXL1, DOK3, HS3ST2, ATP6V0D1, CCAR1, and C1QTNF1 to be used for OS progression and prognosis.

Long mononu‑ cleotide A‑T repeats are cis‑regulatory transcriptional elements that control many genes, increasing the expression of numerous genes in various cancers, including lung cancer. Therefore, targeting A‑T repeats may dysregulate many genes driving cancer development. Here, we tested a peptide nucleic acid (PNA) oligo containing a long A‑repeat sequence [A(15)] to disrupt the transcriptional control of the A‑T repeat in lung cancer and CSCs. Methods: First, we separated CSCs from parental lung cancer cell lines. Then, we evaluated the role of A‑T repeat gene regulation by counting the number of repeats in diferentially regulated genes between CSCs and the parental cells of the CSCs. After testing the dosage and efect of PNA‑A15 on normal and cancer cell toxicity and CSC pheno‑ types, we analysed genome‑wide expression to identify dysregulated genes in CSCs. Results: The number of A‑T repeats in genes diferentially regulated between CSCs and parental cells difered. PNA‑ A15 was toxic to lung cancer cells and CSCs but not to noncancer cells.

  • Mediator Complex Interaction Partners Organize the Transcriptional Network That Defines Neural Stem Cells
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-10502-8 OPEN Mediator complex interaction partners organize the transcriptional network that defines neural stem cells Marti Quevedo1, Lize Meert1, Mike R. Dekker1, Dick H.W. Dekkers2, Johannes H. Brandsma1, Debbie L.C. van den Berg 1, Zeliha Ozgür3, Wilfred F.J.van IJcken 3, Jeroen Demmers2, Maarten Fornerod1 & Raymond A. Poot1 1234567890():,; The Mediator complex regulates transcription by connecting enhancers to promoters. High Mediator binding density defines super enhancers, which regulate cell-identity genes and oncogenes. Protein interactions of Mediator may explain its role in these processes but have not been identified comprehensively. Here, we purify Mediator from neural stem cells (NSCs) and identify 75 protein-protein interaction partners. We identify super enhancers in NSCs and show that Mediator-interacting chromatin modifiers colocalize with Mediator at enhancers and super enhancers. Transcription factor families with high affinity for Mediator dominate enhancers and super enhancers and can explain genome-wide Mediator localiza- tion. We identify E-box transcription factor Tcf4 as a key regulator of NSCs. Tcf4 interacts with Mediator, colocalizes with Mediator at super enhancers and regulates neurogenic transcription factor genes with super enhancers and broad H3K4me3 domains. Our data suggest that high binding-affinity for Mediator is an important organizing feature in the transcriptional network that determines NSC identity. 1 Department of Cell Biology, Erasmus MC, Wytemaweg 80,

Here, we report that miR-1254 interacts with structured elements in cell cycle and apopto- sis regulator 1 (CCAR1) 5′ untranslated region (UTR) and this interaction enhances the stability of both molecules. miR-1254 can also act as a repressor when binding to unstructured sites in its targets. Interestingly, structured miR-1254-targeting sites act as both a functional RNA motif-sensing unit, and an independent RNA functional unit that enhances miR-1254 expression. Artificially designed miRNA enhancers, termed “miRancers”, can stabilize and enhance the activity of miRNAs of interest.
