    Abstract Antimicrobial resistance has made a sizeable impact on public health and continues to threaten the effectiveness of antibacterial therapies. Novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors (NBTIs) are a promising class of antibacterial agents with a unique binding mode and distinct pharmacology that enables them to evade existing resistance mechanisms. The clinical development of NBTIs has been plagued by several issues, including cardiovascular safety. Herein, we report a sub-series of tricyclic NBTIs bearing an amide linkage that displays promising antibacterial activity, potent dual-target inhibition of DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV (TopoIV), as well as improved cardiovascular safety and metabolic profiles. These amide NBTIs induced both single- and double-strand breaks in pBR322 DNA mediated by

    Abstract DNA Topoisomerase IIα (TOP2α/170) is an enzyme essential for proliferating cells. For rapidly multiplying malignancies, this has made TOP2α/170 an important target for etoposide and other clinically active anticancer drugs. Efficacy of these agents is often limited by chemoresistance related to alterations in TOP2α/170 expression levels. Our laboratory recently demonstrated reduced levels of TOP2α/170 and overexpression of a C-terminal truncated 90-kDa isoform, TOP2α/90, due to intronic polyadenylation (IPA; within intron 19) in an acquired etoposide-resistant K562 clonal cell line, K/VP.5. We previously reported that this isoform heterodimerized with TOP2α/170 and was a determinant of acquired resistance to etoposide. Optimization of the weak TOP2α exon 19/intron 19 5' splice site in drug-resistant K/VP.5 cells by gene-editing restored TOP2α/170 levels, diminished TOP2α/90 expression, and circumvented drug resistance. Conversely, in the present study, silencing of the exon 19/intron 19 5' splice site in parental K562 cells by CRISPR/Cas9 with homology-directed repair (HDR), and thereby forcing intron 19 retention, was used to induce resistance by disrupting normal RNA processing (i.e., gene knockout), and to further evaluate the role of TOP2α/170 and TOP2α/90 isoforms as resistance determinants. Gene-edited clones were identified by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and verified by Sanger sequencing. TOP2α/170 mRNA/protein expression levels were attenuated in the TOP2α gene-edited clones which resulted in resistance to etoposide as assessed by reduced etoposide-induced DNA damage (γH2AX, Comet assays) and growth inhibition. RNA-seq and qPCR studies suggested that intron 19 retention leads to decreased TOP2α/170 expression by degradation of the TOP2α edited mRNA transcripts. Forced expression of TOP2α/90 in the gene-edited K562 cells further decreased etoposide-induced DNA damage in support of a dominant negative role for this truncated isoform. Together results support the important role of both TOP2α/170 and TOP2α/90 as determinants of sensitivity/resistance to TOP2α-targeting agents.

    Abstract Intronic polyadenylation (IPA) plays a critical role in malignant transformation, development, progression, and cancer chemoresistance by contributing to transcriptome/proteome alterations. DNA topoisomerase IIα (170 kDa, TOP2α/170) is an established clinical target for anticancer agents whose efficacy is compromised by drug resistance often associated with a reduction of nuclear TOP2α/170 levels. In leukemia cell lines with acquired resistance to TOP2α-targeted drugs and reduced TOP2α/170 expression, variant TOP2α mRNA transcripts have been reported due to IPA that resulted in the translation of C-terminal truncated isoforms with altered nuclear-cytoplasmic distribution or heterodimerization with wild-type TOP2α/170. This review provides an overview of the various mechanisms regulating pre-mRNA processing and alternative polyadenylation, as well as the utilization of CRISPR/Cas9 specific gene editing through homology directed repair (HDR) to decrease IPA when splice sites are intrinsically weak or potentially mutated. The specific case of TOP2α exon 19/intron 19 splice site editing is discussed in etoposide-resistant human leukemia K562 cells as a tractable strategy to circumvent acquired TOP2α-mediated drug resistance. This example supports the importance of aberrant IPA in acquired drug resistance to TOP2α-targeted drugs. In addition, these results demonstrate the therapeutic potential of CRISPR/Cas9/HDR to impact drug resistance associated with aberrant splicing/polyadenylation.
