    Abstract DNA methylation is a critical component of gene regulation and plays an important role in the development of cancer. Hypermethylation of tumor suppressor genes and silencing of DNA repair pathways facilitate uncontrolled cell growth and synergize with oncogenic mutations to perpetuate cancer phenotypes. Additionally, aberrant DNA methylation hinders immune responses crucial for antitumor immunity. Thus, inhibiting dysregulated DNA methylation is a promising cancer therapy. Pharmacologic inhibition of DNA methylation reactivates silenced tumor suppressors and bolster immune responses through induction of viral mimicry. Now, with the advent of immunotherapies and discovery of the immune-modulatory effects of DNA methylation inhibitors, there is great interest in understanding how targeting DNA methylation in combination with other therapies can enhance antitumor immunity. Here, we describe the role of aberrant DNA methylation in cancer and mechanisms by which it promotes tumorigenesis and modulates immune responses. Finally, we review the initial discoveries and ongoing efforts to target DNA methylation as a cancer therapeutic.

    Abstract With the rapid developments in mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics methods, label-free semiquantitative proteomics has become an increasingly popular tool for profiling global protein abundances in an unbiased manner. However, the reproducibility of these data across time and LC–MS platforms is not well characterized. Here, we evaluate the performance of three LC–MS platforms (Orbitrap Elite, Q Exactive HF, and Orbitrap Fusion) in label-free semiquantitative analysis of cell surface proteins over a six-year period. Sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation was used for surfaceome enrichment, following gel separation for in-depth protein identification. With our established workflow, we consistently detected and reproducibly quantified >2300 putative cell surface proteins in a human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell line on all three platforms. To our knowledge this is the first study reporting highly reproducible semiquantitative proteomic data collection of biological replicates across multiple years and LC–MS platforms. These data provide experimental justification for semiquantitative proteomic study designs that are executed over multiyear time intervals and on different platforms. Multiyear and multiplatform experimental designs will likely enable larger scale proteomic studies and facilitate longitudinal proteomic studies by investigators lacking access to high throughput MS facilities. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD022721.

    Abstract Meningioma-1 (MN1) overexpression in AML is associated with poor prognosis, and forced expression of MN1 induces leukemia in mice. We sought to determine how MN1 causes AML. We found that overexpression of MN1 can be induced by translocations that result in hijacking of a downstream enhancer. Structure predictions revealed that the entire MN1 coding frame is disordered. We identified the myeloid progenitor-specific BAF complex as the key interaction partner of MN1. MN1 over-stabilizes BAF on enhancer chromatin, a function directly linked to the presence of a long polyQ-stretch within MN1. BAF over-stabilization at binding sites of transcription factors regulating a hematopoietic stem/progenitor program prevents the developmentally appropriate decommissioning of these enhancers and results in impaired myeloid differentiation and leukemia. Beyond AML, our data detail how the overexpression of a polyQ protein, in the absence of any coding sequence mutation, can be sufficient to cause malignant transformation.
