We performed cytosine methylation sequencing on genetically diverse AML patients and found leukemic DNA methylation patterning is primarily driven by non-promoter regulatory elements and CpG shores. Enhancers displayed stronger differential methylation than promoters, consisting predominantly of hypomethylation. AMLs with dominant hypermethylation featured greater epigenetic disruption of promoters, while those with dominant hypomethylation displayed greater disruption of distal and intronic regions. Mutations in IDH and DNMT3A had opposing and mutually exclusive effects on the epigenome. Notably, co-occurrence of both mutations resulted in epigenetic antagonism, with most CpGs affected by either mutation alone no longer affected in double mutant AMLs. Importantly, this epigenetic antagonism precedes malignant transformation and can be observed in pre-leukemic LSK cells from Idh2R140Q or Dnmt3aR882H single and, Idh2R140Q/Dnmt3aR882H double mutant mice. Notably, IDH/DNMT3A double mutant AMLs manifested upregulation of RAS signaling signature and displayed unique sensitivity to MEK inhibition ex vivo as compared to AMLs with either single mutation.
