    Figure 1. <t>ASXL1</t> binds the BRD4-ET domain. (A) Schematic representing domain structure of ASXL1. Indicated on ASXL1 is the proposed BRD4 binding site (538–578; dark red) and the relative positions of commonly mutated residues in cancer that produce a truncated protein either by frameshift (black circle) or nonsense (grey circle). (B) Multiple sequence alignment of the BRD4 binding motif in ASXL1 compared with known BRD4-ET domain interactors, highlighting a conserved five residue motif. These residues we propose bind BRD4 in the same groove of the BRD4-ET as known interactors (PDB: 6BGG; ET bound by CHD4) (C/D) Coomassie-stained gels showing pulldown of His6BRD4600–678 by GST-ASXL1537–587 (C), and the reciprocal pulldown; His6MBP-ASXL1537–587 by GST-BRD4600–678 (D).

TurboID was fused to the BRD4-ET domain and used to investigate the interaction with different lengths of ASXL1 (B) Proximity based labelling assays indicate that BRD4 interacts with ASXL1Y591X and neither the full-length, nor ASXL11–472 which lacks the ET binding site. HEK293T cells were transiently co-transfected with either TurboID-BRD4-ET domain or TurboID alone and varying lengths of ASXL1. Cells were treated with biotin for ten minutes prior to lysis. Immunoprecipitation and Western blotting were performed using to determine if ASXL1 was biotinylated.

Protein identi- fication following streptavidin enrichment of cells treated with TurboID-BRD4-ET domain alone or TurboID- BRD4-ET domain with either Full-length ASXL1 or ASXL1Y591X. A volcano plot was generated to demon- strate changes between proteins detected with FL ASXL1 (A) or ASXL1Y591X (B) compared with the control (BRD4 alone). The fold-change (ASXL1/BRD4 alone) is plotted against the statistical significance (log10p- value). Horizontal dashed line indicates where p = 0.05/Proteins with significant p-values are high- lighted (red) and labelled. (C) Comparative plot of FL ASXL1 and ASXL1Y591X. The fold-change (ASXL1 FL/ BRD4 alone) is plotted against the fold-change (ASXL1Y591X /BRD4 alone). Proteins which are signifi- cantly changed in either data set are highlighted (red).

(D) Model depicting 6mA deposition by Mettl4, recruitment of ASXL1/PR-DUB to 6mA, and engagement of PR-DUB with the E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIP12. These steps are proposed to stimulate ASXL1 proteolysis, inactivating PR-DUB and thereby preserving the Polycomb repressive mark H2A-K119Ub in chromatin.
