A comprehensive catalog of cancer driver mutations is essential for understanding tumorigenesis and developing therapies. Exome-sequencing studies have mapped many protein-coding drivers, yet few non-coding drivers are known because genome-wide discovery is challenging. We developed a driver discovery method, ActiveDriverWGS, and analyzed 120,788 cis-regulatory modules (CRMs) across 1,844 whole tumor genomes from the ICGC-TCGA PCAWG project. We found 30 CRMs with enriched SNVs and indels (FDR < 0.05). These frequently mutated regulatory elements (FMREs) were ubiquitously active in human tissues, showed long-range chromatin interactions and mRNA abundance associations with target genes, and were enriched in motif-rewiring mutations and structural variants. Genomic deletion of one FMRE in human cells caused proliferative deficiencies and transcriptional deregulation of cancer genes CCNB1IP1, CDH1, and CDKN2B, validating observations in FMRE-mutated tumors. Pathway analysis revealed further sub-significant FMREs at cancer genes and processes, indicating an unexplored landscape of infrequent driver mutations in the non-coding genome.

远距调节元件和远程染色质相互作用网络中的候选癌症驱动突变。

全面的癌症驱动程序突变目录对于理解肿瘤发生和发展疗法至关重要。外显子组测序研究已经绘制了许多蛋白质编码驱动程序,但由于全基因组发现具有挑战性,因此很少有人知道非编码驱动程序。我们开发了一种驱动程序发现方法ActiveDriverWGS,并通过ICGC-TCGA PCAWG项目分析了1,844个完整肿瘤基因组中的120,788个顺式调控模块(CRM)。我们发现了30个具有丰富SNV和插入缺失的CRM(FDR <0.05)。这些经常突变的调控元件(FMRE)在人体组织中普遍存在,表现出与目标基因的长距离染色质相互作用和mRNA丰度关联,并且富含基序改变突变和结构变异。人类细胞中一种FMRE的基因组缺失导致癌症基因CCNB1IP1,CDH1和CDKN2B的增殖缺陷和转录失调,验证了FMRE突变肿瘤中的观察结果。途径分析显示,在癌基因和过程中还有进一步的亚显着FMRE,表明非编码基因组中罕见的驱动子突变的未探究态势。
