TET loss of function is strongly linked to cancer. We generated a mouse model of inducible deletion of all three Tet genes (Tet iTKO mice) to study the in vivo effects of loss of TET enzymes. Tet iTKO mice develop rapid and fatal myeloid expansion within 4 to 5 wk. The expanded myeloid cells include new cell populations characterized by upregulation of the Stefin gene cluster on mouse chromosome 16, accompanied by a heterochromatin-to-euchromatin switch encompassing the same region. Stefin/cystatin genes encode cysteine protease inhibitors that inhibit cathepsin proteases among others. We show that high stefin/cystatin gene expression correlates with poor clinical outcomes in acute myeloid leukemia patients and discuss the connection of TET deficiency with changes in genome organization. The three mammalian TET dioxygenases oxidize the methyl group of 5-methylcytosine in DNA, and the oxidized methylcytosines are essential intermediates in all known pathways of DNA demethylation. To define the in vivo consequences of complete TET deficiency, we inducibly deleted all three Tet genes in the mouse genome. Tet1/2/3-inducible TKO (iTKO) mice succumbed to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) by 4 to 5 wk. Single-cell RNA sequencing of Tet iTKO bone marrow cells revealed the appearance of new myeloid cell populations characterized by a striking increase in expression of all members of the stefin/cystatin gene cluster on mouse chromosome 16. In patients with AML, high stefin/cystatin gene expression correlates with poor clinical outcomes. Increased expression of the clustered stefin/cystatin genes was associated with a heterochromatin-to-euchromatin compartment switch with readthrough transcription downstream of the clustered stefin/cystatin genes as well as other highly expressed genes, but only minor changes in DNA methylation. Our data highlight roles for TET enzymes that are distinct from their established function in DNA demethylation and instead involve increased transcriptional readthrough and changes in three-dimensional genome organization.
