    Description: Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is a frequent disease in which the genetic alterations determining the clinicobiological behaviour are not fully understood. Here we describe a comprehensive evaluation of the genomic landscape of 452 CLL cases and 54 patients with monoclonal B-lymphocytosis, a precursor disorder. We extend the number of CLL driver alterations, including changes in ZNF292, ZMYM3, ARID1A and PTPN11. We also identify novel recurrent mutations in non-coding regions, including the 3' region of NOTCH1, which cause aberrant splicing events, increase NOTCH1 activity and result in a more aggressive disease. In addition, mutations in an enhancer located on chromosome 9p13 result in reduced expression of the B-cell-specific transcription factor PAX5. The accumulative number of driver alterations (0 to 〉/=4) discriminated between patients with differences in clinical behaviour. This study provides an integrated portrait of the CLL genomic landscape, identifies new recurrent driver mutations of the disease, and suggests clinical interventions that may improve the management of this neoplasia.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Puente, Xose S -- Bea, Silvia -- Valdes-Mas, Rafael -- Villamor, Neus -- Gutierrez-Abril, Jesus -- Martin-Subero, Jose I -- Munar, Marta -- Rubio-Perez, Carlota -- Jares, Pedro -- Aymerich, Marta -- Baumann, Tycho -- Beekman, Renee -- Belver, Laura -- Carrio, Anna -- Castellano, Giancarlo -- Clot, Guillem -- Colado, Enrique -- Colomer, Dolors -- Costa, Dolors -- Delgado, Julio -- Enjuanes, Anna -- Estivill, Xavier -- Ferrando, Adolfo A -- Gelpi, Josep L -- Gonzalez, Blanca -- Gonzalez, Santiago -- Gonzalez, Marcos -- Gut, Marta -- Hernandez-Rivas, Jesus M -- Lopez-Guerra, Monica -- Martin-Garcia, David -- Navarro, Alba -- Nicolas, Pilar -- Orozco, Modesto -- Payer, Angel R -- Pinyol, Magda -- Pisano, David G -- Puente, Diana A -- Queiros, Ana C -- Quesada, Victor -- Romeo-Casabona, Carlos M -- Royo, Cristina -- Royo, Romina -- Rozman, Maria -- Russinol, Nuria -- Salaverria, Itziar -- Stamatopoulos, Kostas -- Stunnenberg, Hendrik G -- Tamborero, David -- Terol, Maria J -- Valencia, Alfonso -- Lopez-Bigas, Nuria -- Torrents, David -- Gut, Ivo -- Lopez-Guillermo, Armando -- Lopez-Otin, Carlos -- Campo, Elias -- England -- Nature. 2015 Oct 22;526(7574):519-24. doi: 10.1038/nature14666.

    Description: The precise regulation of S-phase–specific genes is critical for cell proliferation. How the repressive chromatin configuration mediated by the retinoblastoma protein and repressor E2F factors changes at the G1/S transition to allow transcription activation is unclear. Here we show ChIP-on-chip studies that reveal that the chromatin remodeller CHD8 binds ~2000 transcriptionally active promoters. The spectrum of CHD8 target genes was enriched in E2F-dependent genes. We found that CHD8 binds E2F-dependent promoters at the G1/S transition but not in quiescent cells. Consistently, CHD8 was required for G1/S-specific expression of these genes and for cell cycle re-entry on serum stimulation of quiescent cells. We also show that CHD8 interacts with E2F1 and, importantly, loading of E2F1 and E2F3, but not E2F4, onto S-specific promoters, requires CHD8. However, CHD8 recruiting is independent of these factors. Recruiting of MLL histone methyltransferase complexes to S-specific promoters was also severely impaired in the absence of CHD8. Furthermore, depletion of CHD8 abolished E2F1 overexpression-dependent S-phase stimulation of serum-starved cells, highlighting the essential role of CHD8 in E2F-dependent transcription activation.

    Description: We investigated DNA methylomes of pediatric B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias (B-ALLs) using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing and high-definition microarrays, along with RNA expression profiles. Epigenetic alteration of B-ALLs occurred in two tracks: de novo methylation of small functional compartments and demethylation of large inter-compartmental backbones. The deviations were exaggerated in lamina-associated domains, with differences corresponding to methylation clusters and/or cytogenetic groups. Our data also suggested a pivotal role of polycomb and CTBP2 in de novo methylation, which may be traced back to bivalency status of embryonic stem cells. Driven by these potent epigenetic modulations, suppression of polycomb target genes was observed along with disruption of developmental fate and cell cycle and mismatch repair pathways and altered activities of key upstream regulators.
