    Identification of RPS14 as a 5q- syndrome gene by RNA interference screen (2008)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2008-01-19
    Description: Somatic chromosomal deletions in cancer are thought to indicate the location of tumour suppressor genes, by which a complete loss of gene function occurs through biallelic deletion, point mutation or epigenetic silencing, thus fulfilling Knudson's two-hit hypothesis. In many recurrent deletions, however, such biallelic inactivation has not been found. One prominent example is the 5q- syndrome, a subtype of myelodysplastic syndrome characterized by a defect in erythroid differentiation. Here we describe an RNA-mediated interference (RNAi)-based approach to discovery of the 5q- disease gene. We found that partial loss of function of the ribosomal subunit protein RPS14 phenocopies the disease in normal haematopoietic progenitor cells, and also that forced expression of RPS14 rescues the disease phenotype in patient-derived bone marrow cells. In addition, we identified a block in the processing of pre-ribosomal RNA in RPS14-deficient cells that is functionally equivalent to the defect in Diamond-Blackfan anaemia, linking the molecular pathophysiology of the 5q- syndrome to a congenital syndrome causing bone marrow failure. These results indicate that the 5q- syndrome is caused by a defect in ribosomal protein function and suggest that RNAi screening is an effective strategy for identifying causal haploinsufficiency disease genes.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3771855/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3771855/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ebert, Benjamin L -- Pretz, Jennifer -- Bosco, Jocelyn -- Chang, Cindy Y -- Tamayo, Pablo -- Galili, Naomi -- Raza, Azra -- Root, David E -- Attar, Eyal -- Ellis, Steven R -- Golub, Todd R -- R01 HL082945/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- T32 CA009172/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- England -- Nature. 2008 Jan 17;451(7176):335-9. doi: 10.1038/nature06494.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02142, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18202658" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    CDK8 is a colorectal cancer oncogene that regulates beta-catenin activity (2008)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2008-09-17
    Description: Aberrant activation of the canonical WNT/beta-catenin pathway occurs in almost all colorectal cancers and contributes to their growth, invasion and survival. Although dysregulated beta-catenin activity drives colon tumorigenesis, further genetic perturbations are required to elaborate full malignant transformation. To identify genes that both modulate beta-catenin activity and are essential for colon cancer cell proliferation, we conducted two loss-of-function screens in human colon cancer cells and compared genes identified in these screens with an analysis of copy number alterations in colon cancer specimens. One of these genes, CDK8, which encodes a member of the mediator complex, is located at 13q12.13, a region of recurrent copy number gain in a substantial fraction of colon cancers. Here we show that the suppression of CDK8 expression inhibits proliferation in colon cancer cells characterized by high levels of CDK8 and beta-catenin hyperactivity. CDK8 kinase activity was necessary for beta-catenin-driven transformation and for expression of several beta-catenin transcriptional targets. Together these observations suggest that therapeutic interventions targeting CDK8 may confer a clinical benefit in beta-catenin-driven malignancies.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2587138/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2587138/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Firestein, Ron -- Bass, Adam J -- Kim, So Young -- Dunn, Ian F -- Silver, Serena J -- Guney, Isil -- Freed, Ellen -- Ligon, Azra H -- Vena, Natalie -- Ogino, Shuji -- Chheda, Milan G -- Tamayo, Pablo -- Finn, Stephen -- Shrestha, Yashaswi -- Boehm, Jesse S -- Jain, Supriya -- Bojarski, Emeric -- Mermel, Craig -- Barretina, Jordi -- Chan, Jennifer A -- Baselga, Jose -- Tabernero, Josep -- Root, David E -- Fuchs, Charles S -- Loda, Massimo -- Shivdasani, Ramesh A -- Meyerson, Matthew -- Hahn, William C -- K08 CA134931/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P50CA127003/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R33 CA128625/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R33 CA128625-01A1/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R33CA128625/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32 CA009172/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32 GM007753/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2008 Sep 25;455(7212):547-51. doi: 10.1038/nature07179.

    Systematic RNA interference reveals that oncogenic KRAS-driven cancers require TBK1 (2009)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-10-23
    Description: The proto-oncogene KRAS is mutated in a wide array of human cancers, most of which are aggressive and respond poorly to standard therapies. Although the identification of specific oncogenes has led to the development of clinically effective, molecularly targeted therapies in some cases, KRAS has remained refractory to this approach. A complementary strategy for targeting KRAS is to identify gene products that, when inhibited, result in cell death only in the presence of an oncogenic allele. Here we have used systematic RNA interference to detect synthetic lethal partners of oncogenic KRAS and found that the non-canonical IkappaB kinase TBK1 was selectively essential in cells that contain mutant KRAS. Suppression of TBK1 induced apoptosis specifically in human cancer cell lines that depend on oncogenic KRAS expression. In these cells, TBK1 activated NF-kappaB anti-apoptotic signals involving c-Rel and BCL-XL (also known as BCL2L1) that were essential for survival, providing mechanistic insights into this synthetic lethal interaction. These observations indicate that TBK1 and NF-kappaB signalling are essential in KRAS mutant tumours, and establish a general approach for the rational identification of co-dependent pathways in cancer.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2783335/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2783335/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Barbie, David A -- Tamayo, Pablo -- Boehm, Jesse S -- Kim, So Young -- Moody, Susan E -- Dunn, Ian F -- Schinzel, Anna C -- Sandy, Peter -- Meylan, Etienne -- Scholl, Claudia -- Frohling, Stefan -- Chan, Edmond M -- Sos, Martin L -- Michel, Kathrin -- Mermel, Craig -- Silver, Serena J -- Weir, Barbara A -- Reiling, Jan H -- Sheng, Qing -- Gupta, Piyush B -- Wadlow, Raymond C -- Le, Hanh -- Hoersch, Sebastian -- Wittner, Ben S -- Ramaswamy, Sridhar -- Livingston, David M -- Sabatini, David M -- Meyerson, Matthew -- Thomas, Roman K -- Lander, Eric S -- Mesirov, Jill P -- Root, David E -- Gilliland, D Gary -- Jacks, Tyler -- Hahn, William C -- R01 CA129105/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA129105-03/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA130988/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA130988-01A2/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R33 CA128625/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R33 CA128625-01A1/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R33 CA128625-02/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32 CA009172/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32 CA09172-33/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32 GM007753/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2009 Nov 5;462(7269):108-12. doi: 10.1038/nature08460.

    Unbiased reconstruction of a mammalian transcriptional network mediating pathogen responses (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-09-05
    Description: Models of mammalian regulatory networks controlling gene expression have been inferred from genomic data but have largely not been validated. We present an unbiased strategy to systematically perturb candidate regulators and monitor cellular transcriptional responses. We applied this approach to derive regulatory networks that control the transcriptional response of mouse primary dendritic cells to pathogens. Our approach revealed the regulatory functions of 125 transcription factors, chromatin modifiers, and RNA binding proteins, which enabled the construction of a network model consisting of 24 core regulators and 76 fine-tuners that help to explain how pathogen-sensing pathways achieve specificity. This study establishes a broadly applicable, comprehensive, and unbiased approach to reveal the wiring and functions of a regulatory network controlling a major transcriptional response in primary mammalian cells.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2879337/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2879337/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Amit, Ido -- Garber, Manuel -- Chevrier, Nicolas -- Leite, Ana Paula -- Donner, Yoni -- Eisenhaure, Thomas -- Guttman, Mitchell -- Grenier, Jennifer K -- Li, Weibo -- Zuk, Or -- Schubert, Lisa A -- Birditt, Brian -- Shay, Tal -- Goren, Alon -- Zhang, Xiaolan -- Smith, Zachary -- Deering, Raquel -- McDonald, Rebecca C -- Cabili, Moran -- Bernstein, Bradley E -- Rinn, John L -- Meissner, Alex -- Root, David E -- Hacohen, Nir -- Regev, Aviv -- DP1 OD003958/OD/NIH HHS/ -- DP1 OD003958-01/OD/NIH HHS/ -- DP2 OD002230/OD/NIH HHS/ -- DP2 OD002230-01/OD/NIH HHS/ -- R21 AI071060/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R21 AI071060-01/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R21 AI71060/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- S10 RR026688/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Oct 9;326(5950):257-63. doi: 10.1126/science.1179050.

    Malaria. A forward genetic screen identifies erythrocyte CD55 as essential for Plasmodium falciparum invasion (2015)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-05-09
    Description: Efforts to identify host determinants for malaria have been hindered by the absence of a nucleus in erythrocytes, which precludes genetic manipulation in the cell in which the parasite replicates. We used cultured red blood cells derived from hematopoietic stem cells to carry out a forward genetic screen for Plasmodium falciparum host determinants. We found that CD55 is an essential host factor for P. falciparum invasion. CD55-null erythrocytes were refractory to invasion by all isolates of P. falciparum because parasites failed to attach properly to the erythrocyte surface. Thus, CD55 is an attractive target for the development of malaria therapeutics. Hematopoietic stem cell-based forward genetic screens may be valuable for the identification of additional host determinants of malaria pathogenesis.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4465434/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4465434/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Egan, Elizabeth S -- Jiang, Rays H Y -- Moechtar, Mischka A -- Barteneva, Natasha S -- Weekes, Michael P -- Nobre, Luis V -- Gygi, Steven P -- Paulo, Joao A -- Frantzreb, Charles -- Tani, Yoshihiko -- Takahashi, Junko -- Watanabe, Seishi -- Goldberg, Jonathan -- Paul, Aditya S -- Brugnara, Carlo -- Root, David E -- Wiegand, Roger C -- Doench, John G -- Duraisingh, Manoj T -- 100140/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 1K08AI103034-01A1/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- K01 DK098285/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- K01DK098285/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- K08 AI103034/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- K12-HD000850/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- R01AI091787/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2015 May 8;348(6235):711-4. doi: 10.1126/science.aaa3526.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Immunology and Infectious Diseases, Harvard T.

    Identification of an oncogenic RAB protein (2015)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-09-05
    Description: In a short hairpin RNA screen for genes that affect AKT phosphorylation, we identified the RAB35 small guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase)-a protein previously implicated in endomembrane trafficking-as a regulator of the phosphatidylinositol 3'-OH kinase (PI3K) pathway. Depletion of RAB35 suppresses AKT phosphorylation in response to growth factors, whereas expression of a dominant active GTPase-deficient mutant of RAB35 constitutively activates the PI3K/AKT pathway. RAB35 functions downstream of growth factor receptors and upstream of PDK1 and mTORC2 and copurifies with PI3K in immunoprecipitation assays. Two somatic RAB35 mutations found in human tumors generate alleles that constitutively activate PI3K/AKT signaling, suppress apoptosis, and transform cells in a PI3K-dependent manner. Furthermore, oncogenic RAB35 is sufficient to drive platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha to LAMP2-positive endomembranes in the absence of ligand, suggesting that there may be latent oncogenic potential in dysregulated endomembrane trafficking.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4600465/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4600465/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wheeler, Douglas B -- Zoncu, Roberto -- Root, David E -- Sabatini, David M -- Sawyers, Charles L -- 1DP2CA195761-01/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- AI47389/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- CA092629/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA103866/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA155169/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM07739/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA103866/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA129105/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA155169/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA193837/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2015 Oct 9;350(6257):211-7. doi: 10.1126/science.aaa4903.

    MTAP deletion confers enhanced dependency on the PRMT5 arginine methyltransferase in cancer cells (2016)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-02-26
    Description: The discovery of cancer dependencies has the potential to inform therapeutic strategies and to identify putative drug targets. Integrating data from comprehensive genomic profiling of cancer cell lines and from functional characterization of cancer cell dependencies, we discovered that loss of the enzyme methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) confers a selective dependence on protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) and its binding partner WDR77. MTAP is frequently lost due to its proximity to the commonly deleted tumor suppressor gene, CDKN2A. We observed increased intracellular concentrations of methylthioadenosine (MTA, the metabolite cleaved by MTAP) in cells harboring MTAP deletions. Furthermore, MTA specifically inhibited PRMT5 enzymatic activity. Administration of either MTA or a small-molecule PRMT5 inhibitor showed a modest preferential impairment of cell viability for MTAP-null cancer cell lines compared with isogenic MTAP-expressing counterparts. Together, our findings reveal PRMT5 as a potential vulnerability across multiple cancer lineages augmented by a common "passenger" genomic alteration.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kryukov, Gregory V -- Wilson, Frederick H -- Ruth, Jason R -- Paulk, Joshiawa -- Tsherniak, Aviad -- Marlow, Sara E -- Vazquez, Francisca -- Weir, Barbara A -- Fitzgerald, Mark E -- Tanaka, Minoru -- Bielski, Craig M -- Scott, Justin M -- Dennis, Courtney -- Cowley, Glenn S -- Boehm, Jesse S -- Root, David E -- Golub, Todd R -- Clish, Clary B -- Bradner, James E -- Hahn, William C -- Garraway, Levi A -- KL2 TR001100/TR/NCATS NIH HHS/ -- U01 CA176058/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- U54 CA112962/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2016 Mar 11;351(6278):1214-8. doi: 10.1126/science.aad5214.

    Description: 〈p〉〈i〉TP53〈/i〉, which encodes the tumor suppressor p53, is the most frequently mutated gene in human cancer. The selective pressures shaping its mutational spectrum, dominated by missense mutations, are enigmatic, and neomorphic gain-of-function (GOF) activities have been implicated. We used CRISPR-Cas9 to generate isogenic human leukemia cell lines of the most common 〈i〉TP53〈/i〉 missense mutations. Functional, DNA-binding, and transcriptional analyses revealed loss of function but no GOF effects. Comprehensive mutational scanning of p53 single–amino acid variants demonstrated that missense variants in the DNA-binding domain exert a dominant-negative effect (DNE). In mice, the DNE of p53 missense variants confers a selective advantage to hematopoietic cells on DNA damage. Analysis of clinical outcomes in patients with acute myeloid leukemia showed no evidence of GOF for 〈i〉TP53〈/i〉 missense mutations. Thus, a DNE is the primary unit of selection for 〈i〉TP53〈/i〉 missense mutations in myeloid malignancies.〈/p〉

    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-01-15
    Description: The differentiation of effector CD8+ T cells is critical for the development of protective responses to pathogens and for effective vaccines. In the first few hours after activation, naive CD8+ T cells initiate a transcriptional program that leads to the formation of effector and memory T cells, but the regulation...
