Abstract
We have used polysome profiling coupled to microarray analysis to examine the translatome of a panel of peripheral blood (PB) B cells isolated from 34 chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) patients. We have identified a ‘ribosome-related’ signature in CLL patients with mRNAs encoding for ribosomal proteins and factors that modify ribosomal RNA, e.g. DKC1 (which encodes dyskerin, a pseudouridine synthase), showing reduced polysomal association and decreased expression of the corresponding proteins. Our data suggest a general impact of dyskerin dysregulation on the translational apparatus in CLL and importantly patients with low dyskerin levels have a significantly shorter period of overall survival following treatment. Thus, translational dysregulation of dyskerin could constitute a mechanism by which the CLL PB B cells acquire an aggressive phenotype and thus have a major role in oncogenesis.
