Summary (written by the submitters)
Transcriptional addiction to the androgen receptor (AR) underlies metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), where AR maintains oncogenic enhancer programs through dynamic, domain-specific interactions with the lysine acetyltransferase p300 and associated cofactors. Here, we describe a mechanistically distinct therapeutic modality, Domain-ALTeration Chimeras (DALTACs), designed to rewire endogenous protein complexes by enforcing non-native domain–domain interactions rather than degrading or inhibiting individual components.

Our first-in-class molecule, AR–p300 DALTAC-1, induces a synthetic proximity between the AR ligand-binding domain and the p300 bromodomain, thereby misconfiguring the native AR–p300 interface and locking the complex into a non-productive, transcriptionally inert state. DALTAC-1 triggers a profound “super-inhibitory” effect, suppressing AR-driven transcription and proliferation more potently than combined AR and p300 inhibition. Mechanistically, DALTAC-1 reprograms the substrate specificity of p300, extinguishing the enhancer-associated histone mark H2B N-terminal acetylation (H2BNTac) while inducing neomorphic acetylation of AR and SRC2/3, culminating in collapse of the AR neo-enhanceosome. Chromatin profiling revealed widespread redistribution of AR and p300 toward canonical palindromic AREs, coupled with attenuation of ERG/BRD4 recruitment and a near-complete loss of histone H2BNTac acetylation and RNA polymerase II loading at oncogenic AR/ERG neo-enhancers. Strikingly, DALTAC-1 exhibits exquisite lineage selectivity, displaying potent activity in AR-positive prostate cancer cells and patient-derived organoids while sparing AR-negative or non-prostate lineages. In multiple in vivo models, including castration-resistant and patient-derived xenograft tumors, DALTAC-1 induces deep and durable tumor regressions with favorable tolerability. Together, these findings establish DALTACs as a universally applicable strategy to rewire disease-defining protein complexes by altering their domain topology, expanding the conceptual and therapeutic landscape of induced proximity agents. The precision and lineage-selective action of DALTAC-1 highlight its strong translational potential for treating AR-driven prostate cancer

This dataset
Download · which file do I need?

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 GSE310949_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.

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 PRJNA1367590 and SRA study SRP647549. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
34 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groups

Any grouping that defines a comparison lives in the sample characteristics, which GEO records separately from the titles.

How we read this: Read from 34 sample titles: 34 distinct titles with little repetition. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
