Whole-genome doubling drives oncogenic loss of chromatin segregation

Elisa Oricchio, Daniele Tavernari, Natalya Katanayeva, Ruxandra-Andreea Lambuta, Juan Diaz Miyar, Giovanni Ciriello

Whole-genome doubling (WGD) is a recurrent event in human cancers and it promotes chromosomal instability and acquisition of aneuploidies(1-8). However, the three-dimensional organization of chromatin in WGD cells and its contribution to oncogenic phenotyp ...

NATURE PORTFOLIO2023

Crizotinib acts as ABL1 inhibitor combining ATP-binding with allosteric inhibition and is active against native BCR-ABL1 and its resistance and compound mutants BCR-ABL1(T315I) and BCR-ABL1(T315I-E255K)

Oliver Hantschel

Resistance remains the major clinical challenge for the therapy of Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) leukemia. With the exception of ponatinib, all approved tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are unable to inhibit the common "gatekeeper" mutation T315I ...

Phosphorylation of the overlooked tyrosine 310 regulates the structure, aggregation, and microtubule- and lipid-binding properties of Tau

Hilal Lashuel, Nadine Aït Bouziad, Anass Chiki, Galina Limorenko

The microtubule-associated protein Tau is implicated in the pathogenesis of several neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's disease. Increasing evidence suggests that post-translational modifications play critical roles in regulating Tau's norma ...

γ-Catenin-Dependent Signals Maintain BCR-ABL1+ B Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Jörg Hülsken, Oliver Hantschel, Anja Irmisch

The BCR-ABL1 fusion protein is the cause of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and of a significant fraction of adult-onset B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) cases. Using mouse models and patient-derived samples, we identified an essential role for γ ...

Structural and functional dissection of the DH and PH domains of oncogenic Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase

Florence Pojer, Oliver Hantschel, Sandrine Madeleine Suzanne Georgeon, Barbara Gerig, Charlotte Julie Caroline Gehin, Sina Maren Reckel, Tim Kükenshöner, Delphine Maude Tardivon, Sara Raquel Pereira Pinho

The two isoforms of the Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase, p210 and p190, are associated with different leukemias and have a dramatically different signaling network, despite similar kinase activity. To provide a molecular rationale for these observations, we study ...

CRISPR-Cas9-mediated saturated mutagenesis screen predicts clinical drug resistance with improved accuracy

Jeffrey David Jensen, Sebastian Matuszewski

Developing tools to accurately predict the clinical prevalence of drug-resistant mutations is a key step toward generating more effective therapeutics. Here we describe a high-throughput CRISPR-Cas9-based saturated mutagenesis approach to generate comprehe ...

Differential signaling networks of Bcr-Abl p210 and p190 kinases in leukemia cells defined by functional proteomics

Romain Hamelin, Sandrine Madeleine Suzanne Georgeon, Oliver Hantschel, Sina Maren Reckel

The two major isoforms of the oncogenic Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase, p210 and p190, are expressed upon the Philadelphia chromosome translocation. p210 is the hallmark of chronic myelogenous leukemia, whereas p190 occurs in the majority of B-cell acute lymphobl ...

Allosteric regulation and targeting of Abl SH2-kinase interface and other cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases

Allan Joaquim Lamontanara

Due to their central role in normal cellular physiology, the activity of protein kinases is tightly regulated and their aberrant activation can lead to cancer. Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is a blood cancer characterized by unregulated growth of myel ...

Allosteric Inhibition of Bcr-Abl Kinase by High Affinity Monobody Inhibitors Directed to the Src Homology 2 (SH2)-Kinase Interface

Oliver Hantschel, Allan Joaquim Lamontanara, Barbara Gerig

Bcr-Abl is a constitutively active kinase that causes chronic myelogenous leukemia. We have shown that a tandem fusion of two designed binding proteins, termed monobodies, directed to the interaction interface between the Src homology 2 (SH2) and kinase do ...

Normal ABL1 is a tumor suppressor and therapeutic target in human and mouse leukemias expressing oncogenic ABL1 kinases

Oliver Hantschel

Leukemias expressing constitutively activated mutants of ABL1 tyrosine kinase (BCR-ABL1, TEL-ABL1, NUP214-ABL1) usually contain at least 1 normal ABL1 allele. Because oncogenic and normal ABL1 kinases may exert opposite effects on cell behavior, we examine ...

Semisynthetic and in Vitro Phosphorylation of Alpha-Synuclein at Y39 Promotes Functional Partly Helical Membrane-Bound States Resembling Those Induced by PD Mutations

Hilal Lashuel, Bruno Claude Daniel Fauvet, Anne-Laure Mahul Mellier, Carole Desobry, Farah El Turk, Ana Jovicic

Alpha-synuclein is a presynaptic protein of poorly understood function that is linked to both genetic and sporadic forms of Parkinson's disease. We have proposed that alpha-synuclein may function specifically at synaptic vesicles docked at the plasma membr ...

Crystal structure of an SH2-kinase construct of c-Abl and effect of the SH2 domain on kinase activity

Oliver Hantschel

Constitutive activation of the non-receptor tyrosine kinase c-Abl (cellular Abelson tyrosine protein kinase 1, Abl1) in the Bcr (breakpoint cluster region)-Abl1 fusion oncoprotein is the molecular cause of chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML). Recent studies ha ...

Functional Perturbation of the Gab2 Multiprotein Complex by High-affinity SH2-binding Monobodies in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia

Emel Basak Gencer Akçok

Chronic myeloid leukemia is characterized by a reciprocal chromosomal translocation between chromosome 9 and 22, resulting in the expression of the Bcr-Abl oncoprotein. Despite the great improvement in patient survival using tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI ...

The SH2 domain of Abl kinases regulates kinase autophosphorylation by controlling activation loop accessibility

Oliver Hantschel, Sandrine Madeleine Suzanne Georgeon, Allan Joaquim Lamontanara

The activity of protein kinases is regulated by multiple molecular mechanisms, and their disruption is a common driver of oncogenesis. A central and almost universal control element of protein kinase activity is the activation loop that utilizes both confo ...
