Abstract
|
 |
|
Twist is a key transcription activator of epithelial-mesenchymal transition
(EMT). It remains unclear how Twist induces gene expression. Here we report a
mechanism by which Twist recruits BRD4 to direct WNT5A expression in basal-like
breast cancer (BLBC). Twist contains a "histone H4-mimic" GK-X-GK
motif that is diacetylated by Tip60. The diacetylated Twist binds the second
bromodomain of BRD4, whose first bromodomain interacts with acetylated H4,
thereby constructing an activated Twist/BRD4/P-TEFb/RNA-Pol II complex at the
WNT5A promoter and enhancer. Pharmacologic inhibition of the Twist-BRD4
association reduced WNT5A expression and suppressed invasion, cancer stem cell
(CSC)-like properties, and tumorigenicity of BLBC cells. Our study indicates
that the interaction with BRD4 is critical for the oncogenic function of Twist
in BLBC.
