Abstract

Overexpression of centromeric proteins has been identified in a number of human malignancies, but the functional and mechanistic contributions of these proteins to disease progression have not been characterized. The centromeric histone H3 variant centromere protein A (CENPA) is an epigenetic mark that determines centromere identity. Here, using an array of approaches, including RNA-sequencing and ChIP-sequencing analyses, immunohistochemistry-based tissue microarrays, and various cell biology assays, we demonstrate that CENPA is highly overexpressed in prostate cancer in both tissue and cell lines and that the level of CENPA expression correlates with the disease stage in a large cohort of patients. Gain-of-function and loss-of-function experiments confirmed that CENPA promotes prostate cancer cell line growth. The results from the integrated sequencing experiments suggested a previously unidentified function of CENPA as a transcriptional regulator that modulates expression of critical proliferation, cell-cycle, and centromere/kinetochore genes. Taken together, our findings show that CENPA overexpression is crucial to prostate cancer growth.

Centromeres are cellular structures that are necessary for the propagation of hereditary information (1Cleveland D.W. Mao Y. Sullivan K.F.

Located centric to the ends of each chromosome, centromeres provide the structural foundation for kinetochores, multimeric complexes that serve as molecular interfaces between microtubule spindle fibers and individual chromatids during mitosis (1Cleveland D.W. Mao Y. Sullivan K.F. Centromeres and kinetochores: from epigenetics to mitotic checkpoint signaling.Cell. 2003; 112 (12600307): 407-42110.1016/S0092-8674(03)00115-6Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (822) Google Scholar). The centromere–kinetochore–microtubule interaction facilitates separation of the sister chromatids as mitosis proceeds from metaphase to anaphase. Centromeres are thus essential to ensuring faithful segregation of chromosomes in actively dividing cells. Efforts to study human centromeres have focused on the epigenetics that drive centromere assembly (3Hayashi T. Fujita Y. Iwasaki O. Adachi Y. Takahashi K. Yanagida M.

Cell Biol. 2006; 8 (16622419): 458-46910.1038/ncb1397Crossref PubMed Scopus (520) Google Scholar). CENPA is a functionally conserved ∼17-kDa molecule that forms a centromere-specific nucleosome with H2A, H2B, and H4 (6Hasson D. Panchenko T. Salimian K.J. Salman M.U. Sekulic N. Alonso A.

Biol. 2013; 20 (23644596): 687-69510.1038/nsmb.2562Crossref PubMed Scopus (141) Google Scholar). Proper CENPA localization is an ubiquitin E3 ligase–dependent process requiring ubiquitination of lysine 124 for engagement with the CENPA-specific chaperone HJURP (7Niikura Y. Kitagawa R. Ogi H. Abdulle R. Pagala V. Kitagawa K. CENP-A K124 ubiquitylation is required for CENP-A deposition at the centromere.Dev.

HJURP subsequently facilitates the incorporation of newly synthesized CENPA into nucleosomes occupying replicated α-satellite DNA (8Barnhart M.C. Kuich P.H. Stellfox M.E. Ward J.A. Bassett E.A. Black B.E. Foltz D.R. HJURP is a CENP-A chromatin assembly factor sufficient to form a functional de novo kinetochore.J.

CENPA nucleosomes have a unique set of binding partners that facilitate proper genomic localization, including CENPB, CENPC, and the constitutive centromere-associated network (CCAN) that comprises the inner kinetochore (10Falk S.J. Lee J. Sekulic N. Sennett M.A. Lee T.-H. Black B.E. CENP-C directs a structural transition of CENP-A nucleosomes mainly through sliding of DNA gyres.Nat. Struct. Mol.

The CCAN serves as a multimeric interface between the DNA-enveloped CENPA nucleosomes and the KNL-1–Mis12–Ndc80 complex network that comprises the outer kinetochore and directly interacts with the microtubule spindle fibers (12Schleiffer A. Maier M. Litos G. Lampert F. Hornung P. Mechtler K. Westermann S. CENP-T proteins are conserved centromere receptors of the Ndc80 complex.Nat. Cell Biol. 2012; 14 (22561346): 604-61310.1038/ncb2493Crossref PubMed Scopus (129) Google Scholar). CENPA and its associated proteins therefore represent structural components that are essential to the integrity of cell division, and appropriate genomic localization of centromeric proteins is consequently a critical event in the cell cycle. Diseases of uncontrolled cell division, particularly cancer, are thus compelling to examine from the epigenetic perspective of centromere biology, primarily as it pertains to the key epigenetic mark CENPA. A number of studies have identified aberrant expression of centromeric/kinetochore proteins in cancers, where overexpression is predictive of survival and response to therapy, although their mechanistic contribution to cancer pathogenesis remains elusive (13Thiru P.
