The cancer epigenome exhibits global loss of DNA methylation, which contributes
to genomic instability and aberrant gene expression by mechanisms that are yet to
be fully elucidated. We previously discovered over 3300 long non-coding (lnc)RNAs
in human cells and demonstrated that specific lncRNAs regulate gene expression
via interactions with chromatin-modifying complexes. Here, we tested whether
lncRNAs could also associate with DNA methyltransferases to regulate DNA
methylation and gene expression. Using RIP-seq, we identified a subset of lncRNAs
that interact with the DNA methyltransferase DNMT1 in a colon cancer cell line,
HCT116. One lncRNA, TCONS_00023265, which we named DACOR1 (DNMT1-associated Colon
Cancer Repressed lncRNA 1), shows high, tissue-specific expression in the normal
colon (including colon crypts) but was repressed in a panel of colon tumors and
patient-derived colon cancer cell lines. We identified the genomic occupancy
sites of DACOR1, which we found to significantly overlap with known
differentially methylated regions (DMRs) in colon tumors. Induction of DACOR1 in
colon cancer cell lines significantly reduced their ability to form colonies in
vitro, suggesting a growth suppressor function. Consistent with the observed
phenotype, induction of DACOR1 led to the activation of tumor-suppressor pathways
and attenuation of cancer-associated metabolic pathways. Notably, DACOR1
induction resulted in down-regulation of Cystathionine ?-synthase, which is known
to lead to increased levels of S-adenosyl methionine-the key methyl donor for DNA
methylation. Collectively, our results demonstrate that deregulation of
DNMT1-associated lncRNAs contributes to aberrant DNA methylation and gene
expression during colon tumorigenesis.
