Extrachromosomal DNA associates with nuclear condensates and reorganizes chromatin structures to enhance oncogenic transcriptionCancer cell · 2025
Summary (written by the submitters)
Extrachromosomal, circular DNA (ecDNA) is a prevalent and significant oncogenic alteration in cancer genomes. Its frequency is associated with aggressive tumor behavior and poor patient outcome. To understand how ecDNA promotes oncogenesis, we map ecDNA-associated chromatin complexes at single-molecule resolution in three well-characterized ecDNA+ cancer models that harbor different oncogenes.

Using a suite of 3D genome mapping and imaging analyses, we determined ecDNA nuclear organization and uncovered that ecDNA hubs are part of MED1-mediated condensates that can be rapidly disrupted by agents perturbing liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS). The functional relevance of ecDNA condensates was demonstrated by inhibition of LLPS which led to hub dispersal, the reduction of MED1 co-activator binding, inhibition of oncogenic transcription and selectively increase cell death of ecDNA-containing cells across a broad range of cancer models. Robust epigenetically silencing of the regulatory modules within ecDNAs effectively disrupts ecDNA’s mode of actions and demonstrates the causality between ecDNA enhancer function, chromosomal contacts, transcription and cellular proliferation, which directly corroborate ecDNA’s trans-activator activity. Our findings reveal that ecDNA drives tumor promotion activity through nuclear condensate and suggests that exploiting these nuclear structures may serve as a universal strategy against malignant tumors. Our work elucidates the structures, functions and regulation of ecDNA which is expected to transform the paradigm for studying cancer genomes and expand the current views of how oncogenes are regulated, from which new clinical strategies can be realized.

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE275707_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

Raw reads on ENA ↗

What the files usually look like: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1152598 and SRA study SRP528739. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
