• W3213169094 abstract "Abstract The enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) oncogene is a histone methyltransferase that functions canonically as a catalytic subunit of the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) to tri-methylate histone H3 at Lys 27 (H3K27me3). Although targeting of EZH2 methyltransferase is a promising therapeutic strategy against cancer, methyltransferase-independent oncogenic functions of EZH2 are also described. Moreover, pharmacological EZH2 methyltransferase inhibition was only variably effective in pre-clinical and clinical studies, suggesting that targeting EZH2 methyltransferase alone may be insufficient. Here, we demonstrate a non-canonical mechanism of EZH2’s oncogenic activity through interactions with inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase 2 (IMPDH2) and downstream promotion of guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP) production. Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) of EZH2 immunoprecipitates from melanoma cell lines and human patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) revealed EZH2-IMPDH2 interactions that were verified to occur between the N-terminal EED-binding domain of cytosolic EZH2 and the CBS domain of IMPDH2 in a PRC2- and methylation-independent manner. EZH2 silencing reduced cellular GTP, ribosome biogenesis, RhoA-mediated actomyosin contractility and melanoma cell proliferation and invasion by impeding the activity and cytosolic localization of IMPDH2. Guanosine, which replenishes GTP, reversed these effects and thereby promoted invasive and clonogenic cell states even in EZH2 silenced cells. IMPDH2 silencing antagonized the proliferative and invasive effects of EZH2, also in a guanosine-reversible manner. In human melanomas, high cytosolic EZH2 and IMPDH2 expression were associated with nucleolar enlargement, a marker for ribosome biogenesis. We also identified EZH2-IMPDH2 complexes in a range of cancers in which Sappanone A (SA), which inhibits EZH2-IMPDH2 interactions and thereby IMPDH2 tetramerization, was anti-tumorigenic, although notably non-toxic in normal human melanocytes and bone marrow derived blood progenitor cells that lacked observable EZH2-IMPDH2 interactions. These findings illuminate a previously unrecognized, non-canonical, methyltransferase-independent, but GTP-dependent mechanism by which EZH2 regulates tumorigenicity in melanoma and other cancers, opening new avenues for development of anti-EZH2 therapeutics." @default.
