Abstract:
Cancer genome sequencing has been instrumental in identifying the genomic alterations that occur in human tumors. However, the functional importance of the vast majority of these alterations, both alone and in combination, remains unknown. I will describe methods that integrate tumor barcoding with CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing and ultradeep barcode sequencing to interrogate multiple tumor genotypes simultaneously in autochthonous mouse models of human cancer. We initially used this method to quantify the effects of eleven of the most frequently inactivated genes in human lung adenocarcinoma on tumor growth in vivo. We also investigated the in vivo fitness advantage conferred by inactivation of each of these eleven genes in combination with inactivation of p53 or Lkb1. This map of tumor-suppressive effects for & gt;30 common lung adenocarcinoma genotypes revealed a complex landscape of context dependence and variability in effect strength. I will also describe a platform that integrates multiplexed Cas9-mediated homology-directed repair (HDR) with DNA barcoding and high-throughput sequencing to simultaneously investigate multiple oncogenic alterations in parallel. Using this approach, we introduced a library of nonsynonymous mutations into endogenous Kras in adult somatic cells to initiate tumors. High-throughput sequencing of barcoded Kras HDR alleles from bulk tumor-bearing lung uncovered surprising diversity in Kras variant oncogenicity. These in vivo approaches may redefine our ability to understand how diverse genomic alterations impact tumor initiation, growth, malignant transformation, and therapy responses.
