Abstract
Computer-aided drug design (CADD), especially artificial intelligence-driven drug design (AIDD), is increasingly used in drug discovery. In this paper, a novel and efficient workflow for hit identification was developed within the ID4Inno drug discovery platform, featuring innovative artificial intelligence, high-accuracy computational chemistry, and high-performance cloud computing. The workflow was validated by discovering a few potent hit compounds (best IC50 is ∼0.80 μM) against PI5P4K-β, a novel anti-cancer target. Furthermore, by applying the tools implemented in ID4Inno, we managed to optimize these hit compounds and finally obtained five hit series with different scaffolds, all of which showed high activity against PI5P4K-β. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of ID4inno in driving hit identification based on artificial intelligence, computational chemistry, and cloud computing.

Pediatr Hematol Oncol 2023; 41:103-113. [PMID: 37578068 DOI: 10.1080/08880018.2023.2234946] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2023] [Revised: 04/10/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023]
Abstract
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent type of pediatric cancer. Germline single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), including ARID5B (rs10821936 T/C), IKZF1 (rs4132601 T/G), GATA3 (rs3824662 G/T), CEBPE (rs2239633 G/A), and CDKN2A (rs3731217 A/C) have been linked to pediatric ALL in different populations. Hitherto, no previous studies have tested the relationship between these SNPs and pediatric ALL in Gaza strip. Therefore, we investigated the association between these polymorphisms and the occurrence of childhood ALL in this part of Palestine. This case-control study recruited 100 healthy controls and 78 ALL patients. Allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR) technique was used for SNPs genotyping. Relevant statistical tests were used and the multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) approach was applied in the analysis of gene-gene interactions. Minor alleles of ARID5B rs10821936 T/C (p = 0.007) and IKZF1 rs4132601 T/G (p = 0.045) were significantly higher in ALL patients. The homozygous (TT) genotype of GATA3 rs3824662 G/T (p = 0.038), (CC) of ARID5B rs10821936 T/C (p = 0.008), and (AC and CC) genotypes of CDKN2A rs3731217 A/C (p < 0.0001) were significantly higher in ALL cases. On MDR analysis, the best model for ALL risk was the five-factor model combination of the examined SNPs (CVC = 10/10; TBA = 0.632; p < 0.0001). This work demonstrates the association of ARID5B rs10821936 T/C, IKZF1 rs4132601 T/G, GATA3 rs3824662 G/T, and CDKN2A rs3731217 A/C polymorphisms with increased risk of pediatric ALL among a patient cohort from Gaza Strip. Further studies with a larger sample size are needed in order to confirm these findings and test the value of these SNPs in prognosis and treatment sensitivity.

Abstract
Germline genetic variants influence development of pediatric B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several pediatric B-ALL susceptibility loci. IKZF1 and PAX5, transcription factors involved in B cell development, have been reported as susceptibility genes for B-ALL development. Therefore, we hypothesized that rare variants of genes involved in B cell development would be candidate susceptibility loci for pediatric B-ALL. Thus, we sequenced TCF3, a key transcription factor gene involving in B cell development. Saliva DNA from 527 pediatric patients with pediatric B-ALL in remission who were registered with the Tokyo Children's Cancer Study Group (TCCSG) were examined. As a TCF3 gene-based evaluation, the numbers of rare deleterious germline TCF3 sequence variants in patients with pediatric B-ALL were compared with those in cancer-free individuals using data in public databases. As a TCF3 single-variant evaluation, the frequencies of rare deleterious germline TCF3 sequence variants in patients with pediatric B-ALL were also compared with those in control data. TCF3 gene-based analysis revealed significant associations between rare deleterious variants and pediatric B-ALL development. In addition, TCF3 variant-based analysis showed particularly strong association between variant rs372168347 (three in 521 TCCSG and three in the 15780 gnomAD whole genome analysis cohort, p = 0.0006) and pediatric B-ALL development. TCF3 variants are known to influence B cell maturation and may increase the risk of preleukemic clone emergence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A significant association has been reported between CEBPE gene promoter polymorphisms (rs2239630 G > A ) and the incidence of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). However, no previous study on this issue has been included among the Egyptian cohort of pediatric patients with B-ALL. Therefore, this study was designed to address the associations between CEBPE polymorphisms and susceptibility to B-ALL, as well as its impact on the outcome of B-ALL Egyptian patients with B-ALL. PATIENTS AND METHODS In the current study, we evaluated the rs2239630 polymorphism in 225 pediatric patients and 228 controls to assess the association of different rs2239630 genotypes with childhood susceptibility to B-ALL and the impact on the outcome of the patients. RESULTS The frequency of the A allele was significantly higher in the cases of B-ALL compared with the control group ( P = 0.004). By analyzing different genotypes for the predictive value of disease development, the GA and AA genotypes have been identified to be the highest among multivariate factors with an odds ratio of 3.330 (95% CI: 1.105-10.035). Likewise, the A allele was significantly associated with the shortest overall survival. CONCLUSIONS CEBPE gene promoter polymorphism (rs2239630 G > A ) AA is frequently associated with B-ALL; and has the worst overall survival among the 3 genotypes, followed by the GA and GG genotypes ( P < 0.001).

Abstract
Various studies have shown that single nucleotide polymorphisms in the AT-rich interaction domain 5B (ARID5B), IKAROS family zinc finger 1 (IKZF1), phosphatidylinositol-5-phosphate 4-kinase type 2 alpha (PIP4K2A), and GATA binding protein 3 (GATA3) genes may be associated with the susceptibility and prognosis of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The present study aimed to investigate the association of ARID5B rs10821936, IKZF1 rs4132601, PIP4K2A rs7088318, and GATA3 rs3824662 gene polymorphisms with the susceptibility and prognosis of childhood ALL in China. We found that the C allele of rs10821936 (ARID5B) and the A allele of rs3824662 (GATA3) were associated with an increased risk of childhood ALL in the Chinese population. There was no significant difference in frequencies of rs4132601 (IKZF1) and rs7088318 (PIP4K2A) genotypes and alleles between the childhood ALL and control groups. We observed that CC genotype of rs10821936 (ARID5B) was associated with increased rates of high-risk and moderate-risk childhood ALL. The rs10821936 (ARID5B) could serve as a potential biomarker for assessing the risk of childhood ALL in Chinese children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND ARID5B SNPs have been linked to ALL in many research studies in which it was identified as a risk factor. From this context, we had great interest to investigate the relationship between ARID5B rs4948488 and ARID5B rs2893881 genotypes and ALL susceptibility and relapse in this study. MATERIALS AND METHODS Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were analyzed for ARID5B rs4948488 and rs2893881 gene polymorphisms by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction in 80 ALL patients and 80 controls. RESULTS Our results showed that the C/C genotype of ARID5B rs4948488 and A/G genotype and G-allele of rs2893881 were linked to higher ALL incidence. Regarding the relapse of ALL, rs4948488 C/C genotype and C-alleles were significantly associated with relapse of ALL. Meanwhile, rs4948488 C/C genotype and rs2893881 A/A genotype and A-allele are associated with T-ALL, while rs2893881 A/G genotype and G-allele are associated with B-ALL. CONCLUSION The results of our study suggested that ARID5B rs4948488 and rs2893881 SNPs might be used risk factors for genetic susceptibility for B-ALL and T-ALL, and that ARID5B s4948488 is related to relapse in ALL patients.<br />.

Abstract
Inherited genetic variation is associated with 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) dose reduction and frequent toxicities induced by 6-MP. However, the tolerable dose for 6-MP is not fully predicted by the known variation in NUDT15 and TPMT among Asian children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) related to 6-MP dose among Japanese children with ALL. This GWAS comprised 224 patients previously enrolled in Tokyo Children's Cancer Study Group clinical studies with replication attempted in 55 patients. Genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotypes were evaluated for association with average 6-MP dose during the initial 168 days of maintenance therapy. Possible associations were observed across five gene-coding regions, among which only variants at 13q14.2 were significant and replicated genome-wide (rs116855232, NUDT15, β = -10.99, p = 3.7 × 10-13 ). Notable findings were observed for variants in AFF3 (rs75364948, p = 2.05 × 10-6 ) and CHST11 (rs1148407, p = 2.09 × 10-6 ), but were not replicated possibly due to small numbers. A previously reported candidate SNP in MTHFR was associated with higher average 6-MP dose (rs1801133, p = 0.045), and FOLH1 (rs12574928) was associated in an evaluation of candidate regions (padjust = 0.013). This study provides strong evidence that rs116855232 in NUDT15 is the genetic factor predominantly associated with 6-MP tolerable dose in children in Japan.

Identification of Genomic Variants Associated with the Risk of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in Native Americans from Brazilian Amazonia. J Pers Med 2022; 12:jpm12060856. [PMID: 35743641 PMCID: PMC9224820 DOI: 10.3390/jpm12060856] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2022] [Revised: 04/17/2022] [Accepted: 04/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
A number of genomic variants related to native American ancestry may be associated with an increased risk of developing Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL), which means that Latin American and hispanic populations from the New World may be relatively susceptible to this disease. However, there has not yet been any comprehensive investigation of the variants associated with susceptibility to ALL in traditional Amerindian populations from Brazilian Amazonia. We investigated the exomes of the 18 principal genes associated with susceptibility to ALL in samples of 64 Amerindians from this region, including cancer-free individuals and patients with ALL. We compared the findings with the data on populations representing five continents available in the 1000 Genomes database. The variation in the allele frequencies found between the different groups was evaluated using Fisher’s exact test. The analyses of the exomes of the Brazilian Amerindians identified 125 variants, seven of which were new. The comparison of the allele frequencies between the two Amerindian groups analyzed in the present study (ALL patients vs. cancer-free individuals) identified six variants (rs11515, rs2765997, rs1053454, rs8068981, rs3764342, and rs2304465) that may be associated with susceptibility to ALL. These findings contribute to the identification of genetic variants that represent a potential risk for ALL in Amazonian Amerindian populations and might favor precision oncology measures.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC), which includes the development of cancer from the colon or rectum, is one of the highly prevalent cancers in the populations of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) in India. However, case-control genetic association studies on CRC are lacking in this population. Various genome-wide association studies have previously shown that single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the AT-rich interaction domain 5B (ARID5B) gene located on chromosome 10q21.2 contribute substantially to the development of colorectal cancer. The association between ARID5B and CRC risk in north Indian population groups is still unknown. To understand the role of ARID5B SNPs in CRC in the population of J&K, we designed a case-control study to investigate the association of the cancer susceptibility variant rs10740055 of ARID5B with CRC in the population of J&K. The study included 180 cases and 390 healthy controls. Genotyping of the rs10740055 variant was performed by RT-PCR using the TaqMan assay technique. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium of the variant was assessed using the chi-squared test. The allele- and genotype-specific risks were estimated by odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The rs10740055 variant showed a higher risk for colorectal cancer with an OR of 3.35 (1.99-5.65 at 95% CI) and P = 0.000005 corrected for age, gender, ethnicity, BMI, alcohol intake and smoking. Our results indicate that the A allele of rs10740055 imparts risk to the population and also that a larger sample size is needed for further statistical validation. The association of other variants in other ARID family genes should also be tested as their role cannot be ruled out.

Abstract
B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) is the most common form of childhood cancer. Chemotherapy is associated with life-long health sequelae and fails in ∼20% of cases. Thus, prevention of leukemia would be preferable to treatment. Childhood leukemia frequently starts before birth, during fetal hematopoiesis. A first genetic hit (eg, the ETV6-RUNX1 gene fusion) leads to the expansion of preleukemic B-cell clones, which are detectable in healthy newborn cord blood (up to 5%). These preleukemic clones give rise to clinically overt leukemia in only ∼0.2% of carriers. Experimental evidence suggests that a major driver of conversion from the preleukemic to the leukemic state is exposure to immune challenges. Novel insights have shed light on immune host responses and how they shape the complex interplay between (1) inherited or acquired genetic predispositions, (2) exposure to infection, and (3) abnormal cytokine release from immunologically untrained cells. Here, we integrate the recently emerging concept of "trained immunity" into existing models of childhood BCP-ALL and suggest future avenues toward leukemia prevention.

Abstract
Although much work has focused on the elucidation of somatic alterations that drive the development of acute leukaemias and other haematopoietic diseases, it has become increasingly recognized that germline mutations are common in many of these neoplasms. In this Review, we highlight the different genetic pathways impacted by germline mutations that can ultimately lead to the development of familial and sporadic haematological malignancies, including acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Many of the genes disrupted by somatic mutations in these diseases (for example, TP53, RUNX1, IKZF1 and ETV6) are the same as those that harbour germline mutations in children and adolescents who develop these malignancies. Moreover, the presumption that familial leukaemias only present in childhood is no longer true, in large part due to the numerous studies demonstrating germline DDX41 mutations in adults with MDS and AML. Lastly, we highlight how different cooperating events can influence the ultimate phenotype in these different familial leukaemia syndromes.

Abstract
Objectives We performed an updated meta-analysis to clarify the relationship between the CEBPE rs2239633 polymorphism and the childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (CALL) susceptibility. Methods All the case-control studies were updated on October 5, 2020, through Web of Science, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) electronic database. The heterogeneity in the study was tested by the Q test and I2, and then the random ratio or fixed effect was utilized to merge the odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). We also performed sensitivity analysis to estimate the impact of individual studies on aggregate estimates. Publication bias was investigated by using funnel plot and Egger’s regression test. All statistical analyses were performed using Stata 12.0. Results A total of 20 case-control studies were selected, including 7014 patients and 16,428 controls. There was no association of CEBPE rs2239633 polymorphism with CALL (CC vs CT + TT: OR = 1.08, 95% CI = 0.94–1.26; CC + CT vs TT: OR = 1.10, 95% CI = 0.94–1.30; C vs T: OR = 1.02, 95% CI = 0.92–1.13). In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, there is no significant association of this polymorphism and CALL risks among Asian and Caucasian populations in the three genetic models (CC vs CT + TT, CC + CT vs TT, and C vs T). Conclusion This meta-analysis found no significant association between the CEBPE rs2239633 polymorphism and susceptibility to CALL.

Abstract
Despite the vast genetic and environmental diversity in Asia, individuals of Asian and Pacific Islander (API) descent are often combined into a single group for epidemiologic analyses within the U.S. We used the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) Detailed Asian/Pacific Islander Database to calculate incidence rates for discrete groups among children aged 0 to 19 years. Due to sample size constraints we pooled incidence among regional groups based on countries of origin: East Asians (Chinese, Japanese, Korean), Southeast (SE) Asians (Vietnamese, Laotian, Cambodian), Asian Indian/Pakistani, Oceanians (Guamanian, Samoan, Tongan) and Filipinos. Incidence rate ratios (IRR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated comparing each API regional group to Non-Hispanic Whites (NHW) and East Asians. Finally, we calculated the correlation between incidence of cancer in specific API ethnicities in SEER and in originating countries in the Cancer Incidence in Five Continents. Incidence rates among API regional groups varied. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) was lower in children of SE Asian descent (IRR 0.65, 95% CI 0.44, 0.96) compared to NHW. Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) was more common among children from Oceania compared to NHW (IRR 3.88, 95% CI 1.83, 8.22). East Asians had higher incidence rates than SE Asians but lower rates compared to children from Oceania. Correlation of some incidence rates between US-based API ethnicities and originating countries were similar. The variation observed in childhood cancer incidence patterns among API groups may indicate differences in underlying genetics and/or patterns of exposure.

Abstract
(IKZF1) rs4132601 and rs11978267 are common gene polymorphisms and have been associated with the risk of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. However, these associations are less evident in races and/or ethnicities other than European and Hispanic. Therefore, we investigated the association between these single-nucleotide polymorphisms and acute lymphoblastic leukemia susceptibility and disease outcome. Real-time polymerase chain reaction typing was performed for IKZF1 rs4132601 and rs11978267 for 128 pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (pALL), 45 adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (aALL), and 436 healthy controls. The G allele-containing and G-containing genotypes (GG+GT) of rs4132601 were significantly higher in pALL (P=0.003, odds ratio [OR]=1.65, 0.009, OR=1.42, respectively) and aALL (P=0.016, OR=1.81 and 0.011, OR=1.61, respectively). However, the GG haplotype was associated with the risk of pALL (P=0.044), the GA haplotype was associated with the risk of aALL (P=0.007). In aALL, the GG genotype of rs4132601 was associated with absence of remission and poor overall survival (P=0.003 and 0.041, respectively). The IKZF1 rs4132601 single-nucleotide polymorphism can be considered a susceptibility risk factor for the development of pALL and aALL in the studied cohort of Egyptian patients. The GG genotype of IKZF1 rs4132601 may be a risk factor for poor outcome in aALL patients.

Abstract
Background The genetic variants of the ARID5B gene have recently been reported to be associated with disease susceptibility and treatment outcome in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). However, few studies have explored the association of ARID5B with sensitivities to chemotherapeutic agents. Methods We genotyped susceptibility-linked rs7923074 and rs10821936 as well as relapse-linked rs4948488, rs2893881, and rs6479778 of ARDI5B by direct sequencing of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products in 72 B-cell precursor-ALL (BCP-ALL) cell lines established from Japanese patients. We also quantified their ARID5B expression levels by real-time reverse transcription PCR, and determined their 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) values by alamarBlue assays in nine representative chemotherapeutic agents used for ALL treatment. Results No significant associations were observed in genotypes of the susceptibility-linked single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the relapsed-linked SNPs with ARID5B gene expression levels. Of note, IC50 values of vincristine (VCR) (median IC50: 39.6 ng/ml) in 12 cell lines with homozygous genotype of risk allele (C) in the relapse-linked rs4948488 were significantly higher (p = 0.031 in Mann–Whitney U test) than those (1.04 ng/ml) in 60 cell lines with heterozygous or homozygous genotypes of the non-risk allele (T). Furthermore, the IC50 values of mafosfamide [Maf; active metabolite of cyclophosphamide (CY)] and cytarabine (AraC) tended to be associated with the genotype of rs4948488. Similar associations were observed in genotypes of the relapse-linked rs2893881 and rs6479778, but not in those of the susceptibility-linked rs7923074 and rs10821936. In addition, the IC50 values of methotrexate (MTX) were significantly higher (p = 0.023) in 36 cell lines with lower ARID5B gene expression (median IC50: 37.1 ng/ml) than those in the other 36 cell lines with higher expression (16.9 ng/ml). Conclusion These observations in 72 BCP-ALL cell lines suggested that the risk allele of the relapse-linked SNPs of ARID5B may be involved in a higher relapse rate because of resistance to chemotherapeutic agents such as VCR, CY, and AraC. In addition, lower ARID5B gene expression may be associated with MTX resistance.

Validations of Top and Novel Susceptibility Variants in All-Age Chinese Patients With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. Front Genet 2020; 11:1004.

Abstract
Through genome-wide association studies (GWAS), multiple inherited predispositions to acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) have been identified in children. Most recently, a novel susceptibility locus at ERG was localized, exhibiting Hispanic-specific manner. In this study, we conducted a replication study to in all-age Chinese patients (N = 451), not only validating the novel ERG locus, but also systematically determining the impact of age on association status of the top GWAS signals. We found that single nucleotide polymorphisms at ARID5B, IKZF1, CEBPE, PIP4K2A were only significantly associated with ALL susceptibility in childhood patients with no BCR-ABL fusion, while GATA3 signal exhibited its significance in adults no matter carrying BCR-ABL fusion or not. Moreover, the novel ERG SNP can be validated in pediatric patients without both BCR-ABL and ETV6-RUNX1 fusion. Our finding suggests the modifying effects of age on genetic predisposition to ALL, and highlights the impact of ERG SNP in Chinese patients.

Abstract
The PI5P4Ks have been demonstrated to be important for cancer cell proliferation and other diseases. However, the therapeutic potential of targeting these kinases is understudied due to a lack of potent, specific small molecules available. Here, we present the discovery and characterization of a pan-PI5P4K inhibitor, THZ-P1-2, that covalently targets cysteines on a disordered loop in PI5P4Kα/β/γ. THZ-P1-2 demonstrates cellular on-target engagement with limited off-targets across the kinome. AML/ALL cell lines were sensitive to THZ-P1-2, consistent with PI5P4K's reported role in leukemogenesis. THZ-P1-2 causes autophagosome clearance defects and upregulation in TFEB nuclear localization and target genes, disrupting autophagy in a covalent-dependent manner and phenocopying the effects of PI5P4K genetic deletion. Our studies demonstrate that PI5P4Ks are tractable targets, with THZ-P1-2 as a useful tool to further interrogate the therapeutic potential of PI5P4K inhibition and inform drug discovery campaigns for these lipid kinases in cancer metabolism and other autophagy-dependent disorders.

Genetic defects in hematopoietic transcription factors and predisposition to acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Blood 2019; 134:793-797.

Abstract
Recent genome-wide studies have revealed a plethora of germline variants that significantly influence the susceptibility to acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), thus providing compelling evidence for genetic inheritance of this blood cancer. In particular, hematopoietic transcription factors (eg, ETV6, PAX5, IKZF1) are most frequently implicated in familial ALL, and germline variants in these genes confer strong predisposition (albeit with incomplete penetrance). Studies of germline risk factors for ALL provide unique insights into the molecular etiology of this leukemia.

ARID5B gene polymorphisms and the risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia: a meta-analysis. Int J Hematol 2019; 110:272-284.

Abstract
Genome-wide association studies have implicated several single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the AT-rich interactive domain 5B (ARID5B) gene in children with ALL; however, whether ARID5B variants (rs10821936, rs10994982, rs7089424) are associated with childhood ALL remains controversial. We performed this study to obtain more conclusive results. Eligible studies were searched in PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were calculated. A total of 26 studies were included. Analyses stratified by ethnicity revealed that three polymorphisms are significantly associated with the odds of childhood ALL in Caucasians, and rs10994982 and rs7089424 with the odds of childhood ALL in Asian populations. Furthermore, subtype analyses provided strong evidence that the three polymorphisms are highly associated with the risk of B-cell ALL. Our findings indicate that the ARID5B variants (rs10821936, rs10994982, rs7089424) are significantly associated with the risk of childhood ALL.

Nucleic Acids Res 2018; 46:10034-10051. [PMID: 30085123 PMCID: PMC6212772 DOI: 10.1093/nar/gky682] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2018] [Revised: 06/29/2018] [Accepted: 07/17/2018] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
The interplay between transcription factors and epigenetic writers like the DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs), and the role of this interplay in gene expression, is being increasingly appreciated. ZBTB24, a poorly characterized zinc-finger protein, or the de novo methyltransferase DNMT3B, when mutated, cause Immunodeficiency, Centromere Instability, and Facial anomalies (ICF) syndrome, suggesting an underlying mechanistic link. Chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with loss-of-function approaches in model systems revealed common loci bound by ZBTB24 and DNMT3B, where they function to regulate gene body methylation. Genes coordinately regulated by ZBTB24 and DNMT3B are enriched for molecular mechanisms essential for cellular homeostasis, highlighting the importance of the ZBTB24-DNMT3B interplay in maintaining epigenetic patterns required for normal cellular function. We identify a ZBTB24 DNA binding motif, which is contained within the promoters of most of its transcriptional targets, including CDCA7, AXIN2, and OSTC. Direct binding of ZBTB24 at the promoters of these genes targets them for transcriptional activation. ZBTB24 binding at the promoters of RNF169 and CAMKMT, however, targets them for transcriptional repression. The involvement of ZBTB24 targets in diverse cellular programs, including the VDR/RXR and interferon regulatory pathways, suggest that ZBTB24's role as a transcriptional regulator is not restricted to immune cells.
