RB transcriptional corepressor 1 (RB1) is a critical regulatory gene in physiological and pathological processes. Genetic mutation is considered to be the main cause of RB1 inactivation. However, accumulating evidence has shown that not all RB1 dysfunction is triggered by gene mutations, and the additional mechanism underlying RB1 dysfunction remains unclear. Here, we firstly reveal that a CCCTC binding factor (CTCF) mediated intrachromosomal looping served as a regulatory inducer to inactivate RB1. Once the core genomic fragment was deleted by Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats/Cas9 (CRISPR/Cas9), this intrachromosomal looping was disrupted. After the open of chromatin, Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2 (EZH2) was released and decreased the level of Tri-Methyl-Histone H3 Lys27 (H3K27me3) at the RB1 promoter, which substantially restored the expression of RB protein (pRB) and inhibited tumorigenesis. In addition, targeted correction of abnormal RB1 looping using the small-molecule compound GSK503 efficiently restored RB1 transcription and suppressed tumorigenesis. Our study reveals an alternative transcriptional mechanism underlying RB1 dysfunction independent of gene mutation, and advancing the discovery of potential therapeutic chemicals based on aberrant chromatin looping.
