Antagonizing functions of SPOP and ERG Drive Incompatible Subtypes of Prostate Cancer

Bernasocchi T, El Tekle G, Bolis M, Svinkina T, Zoma M, Rinaldi A, Ceserani V, Janouskova H, Schram P, Carbone G, Alimonti A, Moch H, Carr SA, Udeshi ND, Theurillat JP. 2018. While the co-operation of cancer driver genes in tumorigenesis has been studied, little is known about the interplay of driver mutations that never co-occur within the same cancer cells. The latter scenario has been identified in prostate cancer where recurrent gene fusions involving the oncogenic ERG transcription factor and point mutations in the ubiquitin ligase adaptor SPOP are strictly mutually exclusive. Nevertheless, the underlying basis of this observation is poorly understood. Here, we show that ERG and mutant SPOP, even though oncogenic on their own, are together synthetic sick. At the molecular level, both driver genes inhibit each other in a reciprocal manner. In ERG-driven tumors, wild type SPOP is required to dampen androgen receptor (AR) signaling and sustain ERG activity in part through its ability to degrade the bromodomain histone reader ZMYND11. Consequently, loss-of-function mutations in SPOP unleash excessive AR signaling and reduce ERG function. Conversely, oncogenic androgen receptor signaling driven by mutant SPOP is repressed by ERG. The incompatibility of mutant SPOP and ERG may help to understand why SPOP mutant tumors frequently harbor gene deletions in the chromatin-modifying enzyme CHD1. We find that mutant SPOP promotes the generation of ERG rearrangements in a CHD1-dependent manner. Thus, CHD1 gene deletions may protect SPOP-mutant tumors from ERG-mediated growth inhibition. Taken together, our findings reveal the existence of divergent and incompatible paths towards prostate cancer that converge on SPOP function. [dataset license: CC0 1.0 Universal (CC0 1.0)]

+ Dataset History


Click here to queue conversion of this dataset's submitted spectrum files to open formats (e.g. mzML). This process may take some time.

When complete, the converted files will be available in the "ccms_peak" subdirectory of the dataset's FTP space (accessible via the "FTP Download" link to the right).
Number of distinct conditions across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct condition labels are counted across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category having a "Condition" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct biological replicates across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct replicate labels are counted across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category having a "BioReplicate" or "Replicate" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct technical replicates across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

The technical replicate count is defined as the maximum number of times any one distinct combination of condition and biological replicate was analyzed across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category. In the case of fractionated experiments, only the first fraction is considered.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Originally identified proteins that were automatically remapped by MassIVE to proteins in the SwissProt human reference database.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct protein accessions reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct unmodified peptide sequences reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct peptide sequences (including modified variants or peptidoforms) reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Total number of peptide-spectrum matches (i.e. spectrum identifications) reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct proteins quantified across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct protein accessions are counted across all files submitted in the "Statistical Analysis of Quantified Analytes" category having a "Protein" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct proteins found to be differentially abundant in at least one comparison across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

A protein is differentially abundant if its change in abundance across conditions is found to be statistically significant with an adjusted p-value <= 0.05 and lists no issues associated with statistical tests for differential abundance.

Distinct protein accessions are counted across all files submitted in the "Statistical Analysis of Quantified Analytes" category having a "Protein" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
This dataset may not contain all raw spectra data as originally deposited in PRIDE. It has been imported to MassIVE for reanalysis purposes, so its spectra data here may consist solely of processed peak lists suitable for reanalysis with most software.
