30 ABSTRACT 31 32 TRIM37 is an E3 ubiquitin ligase mutated in Mulibrey nanism, a disease 33 characterized by impaired growth and increased tumorigenesis, whose cellular 34 etiology is poorly understood. TRIM37 depletion from tissue culture cells results 35 in supernumerary foci bearing the centriolar protein . Here, we 36 characterized these centriolar protein assemblies (Cenpas) to uncover the 37 mechanism of action of TRIM37. We established that an atypical de novo 38 assembly pathway is notably involved in forming Cenpas, which can 39 nevertheless trigger further centriole assembly and act as MTOCs. We found also 40 that Cenpas are present and act similarly in Mulibrey patient cells. Through 41 correlative light electron microscopy, we uncovered that Cenpas correspond to 42 centriole related structures and elongated electron-dense structures with 43 stripes. Importantly, we established that TRIM37 regulates the stability and 44 solubility of the centriolar protein Centrobin. Our findings suggest that elongated 45 Centrobin assemblies are a major constituent of the striped electron dense 46 structures. Furthermore, we established that Cenpas formation upon TRIM37 47 depletion requires PLK4 activity, as well as two parallel pathways relying 48 respectively on Centrobin and PLK1. Overall, our work uncovers how TRIM37 49 prevents the formation of Cenpas that would otherwise threaten genome 50 integrity, including possibly in Mulibrey patients. 51 52 53 54 55 56 57

58 59 INTRODUCTION 60 61 are tiny evolutionarily conserved cylindrical 62 characterized by nine triplets of (MTs) arranged with a striking 9- 63 fold radial symmetry (reviewed in (Gönczy, 2012; Gönczy and Hatzopoulos, 64 2019)). In addition to MTs, centrioles contain multiple copies of tens of distinct 65 that contribute to their assembly, structure and function (Andersen et 66 al., 2003; Jakobsen et al., 2011). Centrioles are essential for the formation of cilia 67 and also recruit (PCM), including the MT nucleator γ- 68 tubulin ring complex, thus forming the of animal cells (reviewed in 69 (Bornens, 2012)). Probably because of such important roles, centriole number is 70 tightly regulated, with most cycling cells having two units at the onset 71 and four units by the time of mitosis (reviewed in (Sullenberger et al., 2020)). 72 Alterations in centriole number control can have an adverse impact on cell 73 physiology and genome integrity. Thus, supernumerary centrioles lead to extra 74 cilia and (Duensing et al., 2007; Habedanck et al., 2005; Mahjoub 75 and Stearns, 2012), which can be observed also in several human disease 76 conditions, including certain cancer types (reviewed in (Bettencourt-Dias et al., 77 2011; Chavali et al., 2014; Gönczy, 2015; Nigg and Holland, 2018; Nigg and Raff, 78 2009). Despite their importance, the mechanisms that prevent the formation of 79 excess centriolar structures remain incompletely understood. 80 The two centrioles present at the onset of the cell cycle differ in age: 81 whereas the older, mother, centriole is at least two cell generations old, the 82 younger, daughter, centriole was formed in the previous cell cycle. The mother 83 centriole bears distinctive distal and sub-distal appendages that the daughter 84 centriole acquires only later during the cell cycle (reviewed in (Sullenberger et 85 al., 2020)). In human cells, the proximal region of both mother and daughter 86 centrioles in the G1 phase of the cell cycle is encircled by a torus bearing the 87 interacting proteins CEP57/CEP63/CEP152 (Brown et al., 2013; Lukinavicius et 88 al., 2013) (reviewed in (Banterle and Gönczy, 2017)). The Polo-like-kinase PLK4 89 is recruited to this torus, where it focuses to a single location towards the G1/S 90 transition, owing notably to a protective interaction with its substrate STIL, thus 91 marking the site of procentriole assembly (Klebba et al., 2015; Moyer et al., 2015;

92 Ohta et al., 2014) (reviewed in (Arquint and Nigg, 2016)). The onset of 93 procentriole assembly entails formation of a 9-fold radially symmetric cartwheel 94 thought to act as a scaffold for the (reviewed in (Guichard et al., 2018; 95 Hirono, 2014)). The fundamental building block of the cartwheel is HsSAS-6, 96 which self-assembles in vitro into structures akin to those found in vivo 97 (Guichard et al., 2017; Kitagawa et al., 2011b; Strnad et al., 2007; van Breugel et 98 al., 2011). During S/G2, the emerging procentriole remains closely associated 99 with the resident centriole and elongates through the contribution notably of the 100 centriolar proteins CPAP/SAS-4, SPICE as well as C2CD3 (Balestra et al., 2013; 101 Comartin et al., 2013; Kohlmaier et al., 2009; Schmidt et al., 2009; Tang et al., 102 2009; Thauvin-Robinet et al., 2014). During mitosis, the procentriole disengages 103 from the resident centriole in a manner that requires the activity of the Polo-like- 104 kinase PLK1, with increased PLK1 levels during S/G2 leading to premature 105 centriole disengagement and centriole reduplication (Loncarek et al., 2010; Tsou 106 et al., 2009). Normally, disengagement during mitosis generates two centriolar 107 units that are then licensed to recruit PCM and trigger a new round of centriole 108 assembly in the following cell cycle. 109 Centrioles can also assemble independently of a resident centriole. Such 110 de novo assembly can occur in physiological conditions, for instance when the 111 protist Naegleria gruberii transitions from an acentriolar amoeboid life form to a 112 flagellated mode of locomotion (Fritz-Laylin et al., 2016; Fulton and Dingle, 113 1971). Likewise, centrioles assemble de novo at the blastocyst stage in rodent 114 embryos (Courtois et al., 2012). De novo assembly of centrioles can also be 115 triggered experimentally in human cells following removal of resident centrioles 116 through laser ablation or chronic treatment with the PLK4 inhibitor Centrinone 117 (Khodjakov et al., 2002; Wong et al., 2015). Therefore, in human cells, de novo 118 assembly is normally silenced by resident centrioles. In contrast to the situation 119 in physiological conditions, experimentally provoked de novo centriole assembly 120 in human cells is error prone and lacks number control (La Terra et al., 2005; 121 Wong et al., 2015). Moreover, de novo assembly of foci that contain some 122 centriolar proteins and which can function as MTOCs forms in human cells upon 123 depletion of the intrinsically disordered protein RMB14 or the Neuralized 124 Homology repeat containing protein Neurl4 (Li et al., 2012; Shiratsuchi et al.,

125 2015). Such extra foci, although not bona fide centrioles as judged by electron- 126 microscopy, threaten cell physiology and could conceivably contribute to 127 disease. 128 TRIM37 is a RING-B-box-coiled-coil protein with E3 ubiquitin ligase 129 activity (Kallijarvi et al., 2002; Kallijarvi et al., 2005), which somehow prevents 130 the formation of foci bearing centriolar markers (Balestra et al., 2013). 131 Individuals with loss of function mutations in both alleles of TRIM37 are born 132 with a rare disorder known as Mulibrey nanism (Muscle-liver-brain-eye nanism). 133 The main features of this disorder are growth failure with prenatal onset, as well 134 as characteristic dysmorphic features and impairment in the organs that give 135 rise to the name of the condition (Avela et al., 2000). In addition, Mulibrey 136 patients have a high probability of developing certain tumor types (Karlberg et 137 al., 2009). Mice lacking Trim37 recapitulate several features of Mulibrey nanism, 138 including a higher propensity to form tumors (Kettunen et al., 2016). However, 139 the cellular etiology of Mulibrey nanism remains unclear, partially because of the 140 many roles assigned to this E3 ubiquitin ligase. In tissue culture cells, TRIM37 141 mono-ubiquitnates and thereby stabilizes PEX5, promoting peroxisomal function 142 (Wang et al., 2017). However, Trim37 knock out mice and mouse cell lines 143 depleted of Trim37 do not exhibit peroxisomal associated phenotype (Wang et 144 al., 2017), suggesting that the conserved pathological features exhibited also by 145 the mouse disease model must have a different cellular etiology. Furthermore, 146 the chromosomal region 17q23 where TRIM37 resides is amplified in ~40% of 147 breast cancers (Sinclair et al., 2003). TRIM37 mono-ubiquitinates histone H2A in 148 the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line dampening the expression of thousands of 149 , including tumors suppressors, thus offering a potential link between 150 TRIM37 overexpression and tumorigenesis (Bhatnagar et al., 2014). 151 Furthermore, TRIM37 overexpression has been linked to increased cell invasion 152 and metastasis in colorectal and hepatocellular carcinoma (Hu and Gan, 2017; 153 Jiang et al., 2015). Therefore, both the depletion and the excess of TRIM37 are 154 accompanied by detrimental consequences. 155 We previously performed a genome wide siRNA-based screen in human 156 cells to identify regulators of centriole assembly, using the number of foci 157 harboring the centriolar marker Centrin-1:GFP as a readout. In this screen, we

158 identified TRIM37 as a potent negative regulator of Centrin-1:GFP foci number. 159 Our initial characterization of the TRIM37 depletion phenotype revealed that 160 ~50% of cells possess supernumerary foci harboring the centriolar proteins 161 Centrin and CP110, as well as instances of multipolar spindle assembly and 162 miss-segregation. Additionally, we found that inhibition of PLK1 163 partially suppressed supernumerary foci formation upon TRIM37 depletion, 164 leading to the suggestion that such foci occur through centriole reduplication 165 (Balestra et al., 2013), although the fact that suppression was partial suggested 166 that an additional explanation was to be found. Here, we set out to further 167 explore the nature of such supernumerary foci to uncover the mechanism of 168 action of TRIM37, and perhaps thereby also provide novel insights into Mulibrey 169 nanism. 170 171

172 RESULTS 173 174 TRIM37 prevents formation of centriolar protein assemblies (Cenpas) 175 To further decipher the origin of supernumerary foci containing Centrin and 176 CP110 following TRIM37 depletion, we investigated where in the cell they first 177 appeared. We reasoned that appearance of supernumerary foci close to resident 178 centrioles could indicate centriole reduplication, whereby premature 179 disengagement would license resident centrioles and procentrioles to 180 prematurely seed centriole assembly. By contrast, appearance of supernumerary 181 foci away from resident centrioles would suggest some type of de novo process. 182 We performed live imaging of HeLa cells expressing Centrin-1:GFP (referred to 183 as HC1 cells hereafter) and depleted of TRIM37 by siRNAs. As shown in Figure 184 1A, we found that extra Centrin-1:GFP foci can appear in the vicinity of resident 185 centrioles (yellow arrows, 8/13 foci), but also far from them (orange arrows, 186 5/13 foci). These results suggest that extra Centrin-1:GFP foci upon TRIM37 187 depletion may form both through centriole reduplication and some type of de 188 novo process. 189 To further investigate this question, we analyzed fixed S/G2 HC1 cells 190 with antibodies against GFP to monitor Centrin-1:GFP foci, as well as against 191 CEP63 to mark the proximal region of resident centrioles and HsSAS-6 to mark 192 procentrioles. As expected, we found that control cells harbored four Centrin- 193 1:GFP foci, two of which were CEP63 positive and two of which were HsSAS-6 194 positive (Fig. 1B). Strikingly, in cells depleted of TRIM37, we found that in 195 addition to the normal four Centrin-1:GFP foci accompanied by two Cep63 foci 196 and two HsSAS-6 foci, ~90% of extra Centrin-1:GFP foci did not harbor CEP63 or 197 HsSAS-6 (Fig. 1B, 1C). For comparison, we likewise analyzed cells arrested in G2 198 following treatment with the CDK1 inhibitor RO3306, which induces PLK1- 199 dependent centriole reduplication (Loncarek et al., 2010). In this case, >90% of 200 extra Centrin-1:GFP foci harbored CEP63 and/or HsSAS-6 (Fig. 1B, 1C), in 201 contrast to the situation upon TRIM37 depletion, further indicating that TRIM37 202 does not act solely to prevent centriole reduplication. 203 Overall, we conclude that TRIM37 depletion results in extra Centrin- 204 1:GFP foci both near and far from resident centrioles, suggestive of centriole

205 reduplication happening together with some de novo process. Moreover, we find 206 that such foci harbor some centriolar proteins but usually not others. We will 207 hence refer hereafter to these entities as Centriolar protein assemblies, or 208 Cenpas in short. 209 210 TRIM37 regulates Cenpas formation from outside the nucleus and localizes to 211 centrosomes 212 TRIM37 can regulate transcription through nuclear association with the 213 polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) (Bhatnagar et al., 2014). To explore 214 whether TRIM37 may function as a transcriptional regulator in preventing 215 Cenpas formation, we addressed whether rescue of the TRIM37 depletion 216 phenotype depended on the presence of the protein in the nucleus. We 217 generated a version of TRIM37 forced to exit the nucleus via fusion to a nuclear 218 export signal (NES), finding that both TRIM37:GFP and TRIM37:NES:GFP equally 219 rescued the TRIM37 depletion phenotype (Fig. 1D, 1E). This indicates that 220 TRIM37 acts outside the nucleus to prevent Cenpas formation. 221 Given the TRIM37 depletion phenotype, we explored whether the protein 222 localizes to centrioles. Since antibodies did not prove suitable to address this 223 question (Balestra et al., 2013; Meitinger et al., 2016), we instead expressed 224 TRIM37:GFP, finding it to be present weakly in the nucleus and more so in the 225 cytoplasm (Fig. S1A, S1B). Intriguingly, in some cells, TRIM37:GFP also localized 226 to centrosomes marked by γ-tubulin (Fig. S1A, S1B). To investigate whether this 227 might reflect a cell cycle restricted distribution, TRIM37:GFP expressing cells 228 were probed with antibodies against GFP and Centrobin, which localizes 229 preferentially to the resident daughter centriole and to procentrioles (Zou et al., 230 2005). Therefore, G1 cells bear a single Centrobin focus while S/G2 cells bear 2 231 or 3 (Fig. S1C), which enabled us to establish that whereas only ~10% of G1 cells 232 harbored centrosomal TRIM37:GFP, ~60% of S/G2 cells did so (Fig. S1D). We 233 also localized the fusion protein with respect to CEP63, Centrin-2 and the distal 234 appendage protein CEP164, finding that TRIM37:GFP partially overlapped with 235 CEP164 (Fig. S1E, S1F). Overall, we conclude that TRIM37 localizes to the distal 236 part of centrioles, and it will be interesting to investigate in the future whether

237 TRIM37 acts from this location to prevent the formation of at least some Cenpas, 238 perhaps those in the vicinity of resident centrioles. 239 240 Cenpas can act as MTOCs, are present in Mulibrey patient cells and trigger new 241 rounds of centriolar assembly 242 TRIM37 depleted cells exhibit an increased incidence of multipolar 243 spindles and chromosome miss-segregation (Balestra et al., 2013), suggesting 244 that Cenpas can nucleate microtubules and serve as extra microtubule 245 organizing centers (MTOCs). To thoroughly test this possibility, we performed 246 microtubule depolymerization-regrowth experiments. We found that whereas 247 most control mitotic cells harbored two MTOCs, TRIM37 depletion resulted in an 248 increased frequency of cells with more than two MTOCs, which often differed in 249 size (Fig. 2A, Fig. S2A, Fig.2B). In addition, we found that ~40% of Cenpas did not 250 nucleate microtubules, indicative of some composition heterogeneity (Fig. 2A, 251 siTRIM37, inset 1). We conclude that microtubules nucleated from Cenpas 252 contribute to the defective spindle assembly and chromosome miss-segregation 253 phenotype of TRIM37 depleted cells. 254 To further explore the importance of Cenpas, we addressed whether they 255 are also present in Mulibrey patient cells. Using healthy donor fibroblasts as 256 controls, we analyzed fibroblasts derived from two patients bearing the Finnish 257 founder mutation, the most frequent TRIM37 disease alteration, which results in 258 a frame shift of the coding sequence generating a premature stop codon (Avela et 259 al., 2000). As shown in Figure 2C, Western blot analysis showed essentially no 260 detectable TRIM37 protein in patient cells. We immunostained control and 261 patients fibroblast with antibodies against Centrin-2 to monitor the presence of 262 Cenpas, as well as against γ-tubulin to probe their ability to recruit PCM and, 263 thereby, to nucleate microtubules. Echoing the results in tissue culture cells 264 depleted of TRIM37, we found that patient cells in mitosis harbored 265 supernumerary Centrin-2 foci, some of which were positive for γ-tubulin (Fig. 266 2D, 2E). Patient cells also exhibited evidence of chromosome miss-segregation, 267 as would be expected from multipolar spindle assembly (Fig. 2D). We conclude 268 that Cenpas are present and active also in Mulibrey patient cells.

269 We set out to address whether Cenpas in tissue culture cells are also 270 active in triggering further rounds of centriole assembly, potentially in a 271 subsequent cell cycle to the one in which they formed. To this end, we 272 transfected cells with TRIM37 siRNAs and monitored the presence of Cenpas 24, 273 48 and 72 hours thereafter using antibodies against Centrin-2 and CP110. 274 Control cells harbored two individual Centrin-2/CP110 foci in G1 and two pairs 275 of such foci in S/G2, corresponding to two pairs of resident centriole plus 276 procentriole (Fig. S2B). Upon TRIM37 depletion, we found that supernumerary 277 Centrin-2/CP110 foci appeared principally as individual units at the 24 hours 278 time point, but that pairs of foci became more frequent at the 48 and 72 hours 279 time points (Fig. 2F, 2G). We conclude that Cenpas can trigger further rounds of 280 centriole assembly. 281 282 Ultra expansion microscopy and electron microscopy reveal aberrant centriole- 283 related structures upon TRIM37 depletion 284 We set out to address whether Cenpas exhibit further hallmarks of 285 centrioles. We thus tested whether Cenpas harbor microtubules characteristic of 286 centrioles by staining cells depleted of TRIM37 with antibodies against 287 acetylated tubulin, a signature modification of centriolar microtubules, finding 288 that ~23% such cells possessed extra acetylated tubulin foci (Fig. 3A, 3B). To 289 examine this feature at higher resolution, we analyzed cells using ultrastructure 290 expansion microscopy (U-ExM) coupled to confocal imaging (Gambarotto et al., 291 2019). RPE-1 cells expressing Centrin1:GFP were immunostained for GFP to 292 identify Cenpas, for CEP152 to mark mature centrioles and for acetylated 293 tubulin. Control cells contained two mature centrioles positive for all three 294 markers (Fig. 3C). We found that some Cenpas formed upon TRIM37 depletion 295 harbored merely Centrin1:GFP, but neither acetylated tubulin or CEP152 (Fig. 296 3D-3F, yellow arrows). By contrast, other Cenpas were positive for all three 297 markers (Fig. 3E-3G), with the acetylated tubulin signal being smaller than 298 normal in some cases (Fig. 3E, 3F, white arrows). Moreover, some Cenpas 299 appeared to have matured into entities with regular looking acetylated tubulin 300 and CEP152 signals (Fig. 3G). Together, these findings support the notion that 301 Cenpas are heterogeneous in nature with partially overlapping composition.

302 To uncover the ultrastructure of Cenpas, we conducted correlative light 303 and electron microscopy (CLEM). Using fluorescence microscopy, we screened 304 HeLa and RPE-1 cells expressing Centrin-1:GFP depleted of TRIM37 to identify 305 Cenpas, using a gridded coverslip to acquire information regarding GFP foci 306 position, before proceeding with serial section transmission electron microscopy 307 (TEM). In addition to control cells (Fig. S3A-S3B), we analyzed 8 cells depleted of 308 TRIM37 (Fig. 3H, Fig. S3C-F). From a total of 47 Centrin-1:GFP foci observed by 309 light microscopy in TRIM37 depleted cells, serial section TEM analysis 310 established that in addition to those corresponding to normal looking resident 311 centrioles or procentrioles, 20 corresponded to unusual structures described 312 hereafter (Fig. S3F). We found the expected number of resident centrioles (15 313 found/16 expected, see Fig. S3F; Fig. 3I, 3J), as well as two extra centriole-like 314 structures in one cell (Fig. 3M; Fig. S3D). Eight of the other unusual structures 315 were centriole-related electron-dense assemblies that harbored microtubules 316 but only partially resembled centrioles (Fig. 3K, 3N; Fig. S3C, S3D). Strikingly, the 317 remaining 12 other unusual structures were elongated electron-dense striped 318 entities, hereafter referred as “tiger" structures (Fig. 3L, 3O; Fig. S3C, S3E). We 319 noted also that an individual tiger structure sometimes correlated with more 320 than one Centrin-1:GFP focus (Fig. S3E). Overall, we conclude that Cenpas 321 forming upon TRIM37 depletion are heterogeneous in nature, only sometimes 322 bearing resemblance to centrioles, perhaps reflecting different pathways or 323 steps in their assembly. 324 325 TRIM37 depletion triggers formation of elongated Centrobin assemblies 326 Because TRIM37 is an E3 ligase, the activity of which is important for preventing 327 Cenpas formation (Balestra et al., 2013), we reasoned that a protein implicated 328 in centriole assembly might accumulate in an aberrant manner upon TRIM37 329 depletion, causing the observed phenotype. Therefore, we conducted a small 330 screen by immunostaining cells depleted of TRIM37 with antibodies against >20 331 centriolar and centrosomal proteins (Fig. S4A and data not shown). This analysis 332 revealed that Centrobin, which normally localizes tightly to the daughter 333 centriole and to procentrioles (Zou et al., 2005), is present in striking elongated 334 cytoplasmic assemblies upon TRIM37 depletion (Fig. 4A, 4B). We found that

335 ~80% of TRIM37 depleted cells bear usually one or two such Centrobin 336 assemblies (Fig. S4B, S4C). Furthermore, SPICE, which is involved in centriole 337 biogenesis, was also present in Centrobin assemblies upon TRIM37 depletion, 338 even though SPICE was not needed for their formation (Fig. S4D, S4E). 339 Remarkably, all cells with Cenpas were positive for Centrobin assemblies 340 (n=150) with Cenpas often colocalizing with them (Fig. 4A, 4B). In summary,

341 aberrant Centrobin assemblies are invariably present in cells with Cenpas and 342 are often associated with them. 343 How could TRIM37 regulate Centrobin? Performing real time quantitative 344 PCR experiments showed a mere slight diminution in Centrobin mRNA levels 345 upon TRIM37 depletion (Fig. S4F), suggesting that regulation is not at the 346 transcriptional level. By contrast, Western blot analysis uncovered that 347 Centrobin protein levels were increased upon TRIM37 depletion (Fig. 4C). Given 348 the elongated Centrobin assemblies identified by immunostaining, we speculated 349 that the overall increase in Centrobin protein level might reflect an accumulation 350 into such structures, potentially in an insoluble form. Accordingly, fractionating 351 cell lysates into soluble and insoluble fractions, we found that the increase in 352 Centrobin protein levels was most pronounced in the latter (Fig. 4D). We noted 353 also that the insoluble pool of Centrobin migrated slower in the gel upon TRIM37 354 depletion, suggesting that TRIM37 not only restricts Centrobin levels, but also 355 regulates its posttranslational state in some manner. 356 Since TRIM37 is an E3 ubiquitin ligase, we reasoned that its activity might 357 modulate Centrobin protein degradation and, thereby, stability. Therefore, we 358 assayed the stability of the Centrobin protein pool over time in the presence of 359 the translation inhibitor Cycloheximide. As reported in Figure 4E and 4F, we 360 found that TRIM37 depletion significantly increased Centrobin protein stability. 361 One possibility would be that TRIM37 ubiquitinates Centrobin, thus targeting it 362 for degradation, such that increased Centrobin levels upon TRIM37 depletion 363 would trigger formation of Centrobin assemblies and Cenpas. However, although 364 Centrobin overexpression generates aggregates (Jeong et al., 2007), we found 365 that such aggregates did not resemble the elongated Centrobin assemblies nor 366 did they trigger Cenpas formation (Fig. S4G). In addition, TRIM37 367 overexpression did not alter Centrobin centrosomal distribution (Fig. S4H).

368 Moreover, no evidence for TRIM37 mediated Centrobin ubiquitination was found 369 in cell free assays (data not show), such that the detailed mechanisms of 370 Centrobin modulation by TRIM37 remain to be deciphered. Regardless, we 371 conclude that TRIM37 normally regulates Centrobin stability, preventing the 372 protein from forming elongated assemblies invariably present in cells with 373 Cenpas. 374 375 Centrobin assemblies may serve as platforms for Cenpas formation 376 We set out to further characterize the elongated Centrobin assemblies formed 377 upon TRIM37 depletion and assay their role in Cenpas generation. We used U- 378 ExM coupled to STED super-resolution microscopy to analyze the distribution of 379 Centrobin upon TRIM37 depletion at higher resolution. We immunostained RPE- 380 1 cells expressing Centrin-1:GFP with antibodies against GFP, CEP152 and 381 Centrobin. In control conditions, centrioles viewed in cross section exhibited a 382 clear localization of Centrobin between the outer CEP152 and the inner Centrin- 383 1:GFP signals (Fig. 5A). Cells depleted of TRIM37 exhibited analogous 384 distributions at resident centrioles (Fig. 5A), but also harbored elongated 385 Centrobin assemblies often abutting Centrin-1:GFP foci (Fig. 5A, arrows). 386 Strikingly, the superior resolution afforded by U-ExM coupled to STED revealed 387 that such Centrobin assemblies are striated (Fig. 5A). Suggestively, the inter- 388 stripe distances of these Centrobin assemblies were analogous to those of the 389 tiger structures unveiled through CLEM (Fig. 5B). In summary, U-ExM analysis 390 strongly suggests that Centrobin is a constituent of the electron-dense tiger 391 structures observed by TEM upon TRIM37 depletion, and raises the possibility 392 that such structures serve as platforms for Cenpas formation. 393 To investigate the potential role of Centrobin in Cenpas formation, we 394 tested whether Centrobin depletion reduces Cenpas numbers in cells depleted of 395 TRIM37. Although Centrobin depletion was reported initially to impair centriole 396 assembly in HeLa cells (Zou et al., 2005), more recent work with Centrobin 397 knock out cells (Centrobin-ko) demonstrates that the protein is dispensable for 398 this process in RPE-1 cells (Ogungbenro et al., 2018). In our hands, siRNA- 399 mediated depletion of Centrobin did not impact centriole assembly either in 400 HeLa Kyoto cells, despite near-complete protein depletion (Fig. S5A-C). As

401 anticipated, Centrobin assemblies disappeared entirely from cells doubly 402 depleted of Centrobin and TRIM37 (Fig. 5C). Importantly, we found that Cenpas 403 number was significantly lowered in such doubly depleted cells compared to 404 cells depleted of TRIM37 alone (Fig. 5D). Interestingly, however, even if 405 Centrobin depletion was complete as judged by Western blot analysis (Fig. S5C), 406 Cenpas formation upon TRIM37 depletion was only partially prevented by 407 Centrobin siRNA treatment (Fig. 5D). To test whether this might have been due 408 to residual Centrobin or TRIM37 in the double siRNA depletion setting, we 409 performed a similar experiment with RPE-1 Centrobin-ko cells (Ogungbenro et 410 al., 2018), reaching similar conclusions (Fig. 5E, 5F, Fig. S5D). Together, these 411 results support the view that upon TRIM37 depletion Centrobin assemblies act 412 as platform seeding the formation of some, but not all, Cenpas. 413 414 Centrobin and PLK1 together promote Cenpas assembly upon TRIM37 depletion 415 To further understand the mechanisms of Cenpas formation upon 416 TRIM37 depletion, we tested if select centriolar proteins that are critical for 417 canonical centriole duplication were also needed for Cenpas generation. To test 418 the role of PLK4, HeLa cells were grown in the presence of Centrinone for 5 days 419 and then depleted of TRIM37 for 3 days in the continued presence of Centrinone. 420 We found that Cenpas did not form under these conditions, demonstrating an 421 essential role for PLK4 kinase activity (Fig. 6A, 6B). We also tested the 422 requirement for HsSAS-6, STIL, CPAP and SPICE. As anticipated, single depletion 423 of these components resulted in decreased centriole number (Fig. 6A). However, 424 depletion of STIL, CPAP or SPICE did not dramatically modify the number of 425 Cenpas upon TRIM37 depletion (Fig. 6A). By contrast, HsSAS-6 depletion greatly 426 reduced Cenpas number (Fig. 6A). To further explore the impact of HsSAS-6, we 427 depleted TRIM37 from RPE-1 p53-/- HsSAS-6 knock out cells (HsSAS-6-ko) 428 (Wang et al., 2015). Although HsSAS-6-ko cells invariably lacked centrioles (Fig. 429 6A, 6B), some Cenpas nevertheless formed upon TRIM37 depletion, although to a 430 lesser extent than following depletion of TRIM37 alone (Fig. 6A, 6B). Moreover, 431 we found that elongated Centrobin assemblies were generated unabated upon 432 TRIM37 depletion in cells treated with Centrinone or lacking HsSAS-6 (Fig. 6C;

433 Fig. S6). We conclude that PLK4 and HsSAS-6 act downstream of Centrobin in the 434 pathways leading to Cenpas formation upon TRIM37 depletion. 435 To further uncover requirements for Cenpas generation, considering that 436 PLK1 contributes only partially to their formation (Balestra et al., 2013), and that 437 we found here the same to be true for Centrobin, we set out to investigate 438 whether the combined removal of PLK1 and Centrobin may fully prevent Cenpas 439 generation. To avoid the negative impact of PLK1 inhibition on cell cycle 440 progression, we performed these experiments in synchronized cells depleted of 441 TRIM37, and monitor Cenpas appearance during G2 after release from an S 442 phase arrest. These cells were also subjected to Centrobin depletion and/or BI- 443 2536 treatment to inhibit PLK1. Importantly, we found that simultaneous 444 Centrobin depletion and PLK1 inhibition completely prevented Cenpas 445 formation (Fig. 6E), indicating that PLK1 and Centrobin act in parallel to promote 446 Cenpas formation upon TRIM37 depletion. 447 Further evidence supporting the existence of two parallel pathways 448 towards Cenpas generation was obtained by examining the distribution of 449 HsSAS-6 in cells depleted of TRIM37 plus either PLK1 or Centrobin. Indeed, we 450 found that Cenpas generated upon combined TRIM37 depletion and PLK1 451 inhibition, which thus rely strictly on Centrobin, rarely harbored HsSAS-6 (Fig. 452 6F, 6G). By contrast, Cenpas generated upon double depletion of TRIM37 and 453 Centrobin, which thus rely strictly on PKL1, frequently harbored HsSAS-6 (Fig. 454 6F, 6G). Taken together, our findings indicate that two pathways are triggered 455 when TRIM37 is lacking: one that relies on Centrobin assemblies that act as a 456 platform to assemble Cenpas, which at the least is initially independent of 457 HsSAS-6, and another one mediated by PLK1 that operates through HsSAS-6 458 recruitment (Fig. 6G, see discussion). 459

460 DISCUSSION 461 462 Centriole number control is critical for proper cell physiology, including 463 genome integrity. Assemblies of centriolar proteins that can recruit PCM and 464 nucleate microtubules despite not being bona fide centrioles must likewise be 465 kept in check. Here, we identify the TRIM37 E3 ligase, which is mutated in 466 Mulibrey nanism, as a critical component that prevents the formation of 467 centriolar protein assemblies (Cenpas) through two parallel pathways relying on 468 PLK1 and Centrobin. Of particular interest, we uncover that TRIM37 regulates 469 the stability of Centrobin, which upon TRIM37 depletion forms striated 470 structures that we propose serve as platforms for Cenpas generation. 471 472 Two pathways together result in Cenpas upon TRIM37 depletion 473 What are the mechanisms leading to Cenpas formation upon TRIM37 depletion? 474 We previously hypothesized that TRIM37 could act by restricting centriole 475 reduplication in G2, since PLK1 inhibition in TRIM37 depleted cells reduced 476 Cenpas formation (Balestra et al., 2013). However, although blocking PLK1 477 activity in TRIM37 depleted cells reduced Cenpas numbers, some remained 478 despite such inhibition (Balestra et al., 2013). Moreover, while Cenpas form upon 479 TRIM37 depletion as early as 4 h after the G1/S transition (Balestra et al., 2013), 480 PLK1-mediated centriole reduplication occurs only 24 h after G2 arrest 481 (Loncarek et al., 2010). It may even be that the role exerted by PLK1 following 482 TRIM37 depletion is not linked to its known function in regulating licensing. 483 Regardless, we obtained further evidence here that Cenpas do not form solely 484 through a reduplication mechanism. First, some Cenpas appear away from 485 resident centrioles. Second, most Cenpas do not harbor the procentriolar protein 486 HsSAS-6, at the least initially, which is in contrast to the situation during 487 centriole reduplication during G2 arrest. Furthermore, analysis with CLEM 488 revealed that Cenpas are usually either centriole-related structures or novel 489 striped electron-dense structures. Together, these findings indicate that Cenpas 490 do not form solely through centriole reduplication, but also through an 491 alternative novel de novo pathway. 492 Our findings indicate that this alternative pathway relies on Centrobin: 493 whereas the sole removal of Centrobin also merely decreases Cenpas number,

494 the joint removal of PLK1 and Centrobin entirely prevent their generation (Fig. 495 6E). 496 The heterogeneity in Cenpas ultrastructure uncovered by CLEM might 497 also reflect the co-existence of these independent assembly pathways. Such 498 heterogeneity may reflect in addition a step-wise nature of the de novo 499 generation process. This possibility is in line with the fact that more extra HsSAS- 500 6 foci are present 72 hours after transfection with TRIM37 siRNAs (Balestra et 501 al., 2013), compared to the 48 hours post-transfection analyzed here (Fig. 1C). 502 Therefore, HsSAS-6 might not be present or required for the onset of de novo 503 Cenpas formatoin, but could contribute later to their consolidation. In line with 504 this view, HsSAS-6-k-o cells depleted of TRIM37 can assemble some Cenpas, 505 perhaps more rudimentary ones. Interestingly in addition, this observation 506 further suggests that de novo Cenpas generation upon TRIM37 depletion must in 507 some way differ from the classical de novo centriole assembly, which is fully 508 reliant on HsSAS-6 (Wang et al., 2015). 509 We found that one protein that is essential for forming all Cenpas upon 510 TRIM37 depletion is PLK4, which is also required for centriole reduplication and 511 de novo centriole assembly following Centrinone treatment (Habedanck et al., 512 2005; Wong et al., 2015). How could PLK4 be required for Cenpas generation 513 stemming from the Centrobin assemblies formed upon TRIM37 depletion? PLK4 514 condensates forming away from resident centrioles have been observed in RPE- 515 1 TRIM37 knock out (TRIM37-ko) cells (Meitinger et al., 2016). However, we did 516 not detect such PLK4 localization, perhaps reflecting differences between 517 chronic versus acute TRIM37 depletion. Another difference potentially related to 518 distinct depletion regimes is that upon Centrinone treatment, TRIM37-ko cells 519 form centrosome-like structures harboring notably PLK4 and HsSAS-6, and 520 which recruit PCM components, behaving as MTOCs (Meitinger et al., 2016). 521 This is in contrast to our findings whereby no Cenpas forms upon treatment with 522 TRIM37 siRNAs and Centrinone. Regardless, it is interesting to note that in 523 Xenopus extracts, PLK4 self-assembles into condensates that recruit γ-tubulin 524 and behave as MTOCs (Montenegro Gouveia et al., 2018), raising the possibility 525 that Centrobin assemblies may serve as platforms to recruit such condensates. 526

527 Centrobin as a TRIM37 target 528 What are the targets of TRIM37 that are relevant for restricting Cenpas 529 formation? Our work suggests that a critical target is Centrobin, since upon 530 TRIM37 depletion Centrobin protein levels increase and elongated Centrobin 531 assemblies form in the cytoplasm. U-ExM coupled to STED super-resolution 532 microscopy reveals that these Centrobin assemblies have a striped pattern akin 533 to the structures uncovered by CLEM, and are often intimately linked with 534 Cenpas. Given the cytoplasmic localization of these assemblies, this role of 535 TRIM37 is likely to be exerted by the cytoplasmic protein pool rather than the 536 centrosomal or the nuclear ones. Centrobin contributes to several aspects of 537 centriole assembly and growth, as well as ciliogenesis (Gudi et al., 2011; 538 Ogungbenro et al., 2018; Zou et al., 2005). These functions might be linked to 539 Centrobin’s ability to stabilize and promote microtubule nucleation (Gudi et al., 540 2011; Jeong et al., 2007; Shin et al., 2015). Future work will undoubtedly clarify 541 the molecular connection between TRIM37 and Centrobin. Because Centrobin 542 depletion does not fully prevent Cenpas formation upon TRIM37 depletion, other 543 TRIM37 targets must be invoked, and PLK1 or a protein regulating its activity, is 544 an attractive possibility in this respect. 545 546 Cenpas form through different routes but similarly threaten cell physiology 547 Although with different molecular origins, centriolar protein assemblies 548 have been reported in other contexts (Li et al., 2012; Shiratsuchi et al., 2015). 549 Thus, the centriolar protein Neurl4 interacts with CP110 and promotes its 550 destabilization, such that Neurl4 depletion results in increased CP110 protein 551 levels and formation of ectopic MTOCs (Li et al., 2012). Likewise, depletion of 552 RMB14 triggers the formation of centriolar protein complexes that do not 553 initially require HsSAS-6 for their assembly. RBM14 normally limits formation of 554 the STIL/CPAP complex, which upon RMB14 depletion triggers aberrant 555 centriolar protein complex formation (Shiratsuchi et al., 2015). In both cases, 556 however, Centrobin distribution was inspected and no elongated structures as 557 the ones reported here were observed (Li et al., 2012; Shiratsuchi et al., 2015), 558 suggesting different assembly routes. Although these previously reported 559 centriolar protein assemblies and the ones analyzed here do not share a clear

560 common molecular composition or assembly pathway, we propose to group 561 them jointly under the acronym Cenpas, reflecting the fact that they similarly 562 form following a de novo process and entail centriole-related structures that 563 behave as active MTOCs. 564 To our knowledge, our work is the first example in which Cenpas have 565 been reported in a human genetic disorder. The fact that Cenpas are present in 566 Mulibrey derived patient cells raises the possibility that some disease features 567 could be due to Cenpas formation, perhaps owing to the extra MTOCs and 568 resulting chromosome miss-segregation phenotype. As one of the characteristics 569 of Mulibrey nanism is the propensity to develop tumors, we speculate that the 570 presence of Cenpas could contribute to this phenotype since extra centrioles can 571 promote tumorigenesis (Ganem et al., 2009; Godinho et al., 2014; Levine et al., 572 2017; Sercin et al., 2016). We further speculate that some of the instances in 573 which extra centriole numbers are observed in solid and hematological tumors 574 may in reality correspond to Cenpas. 575 576

782 MATERIAL AND METHODS 783 784 Cell culture, cell lines and cell treatments 785 HeLa Kyoto (generous gift from Daniel Gerlich) and U2OS (ATCC) cells were 786 grown in high glucose DMEM medium (Sigma-Aldrich), hTERT-RPE-1(ATCC) 787 cells in high glucose DMEM/F-12 medium (Sigma-Aldrich). Fibroblast cultures 788 were established from skin biopsy samples of two Mulibrey nanism patients 789 homozygous for the Finnish founder mutation, as well as a control individual, 790 with approval by the Institutional Review Board of the Helsinki University 791 Central Hospital (183/13/03/03/2009). The patients signed an informed 792 consent for the use of fibroblast cultures. Fibroblasts were grown in RPMI 793 medium (Sigma-Aldrich). Other cell lines used were HeLa cells carrying an 794 integrated plasmid expressing Centrin-1:GFP (Piel et al., 2000), RPE-1 p53 -/- 795 cells carrying an integrated plasmid (pCW57.1) expressing Centrin-1:eGFP under 796 a doxycycline inducible promoter (generous gift from George Hatzopoulos), RPE- 797 1 p53 -/- Centrobin knock out cells (Ogungbenro et al., 2018) (generous gift from 798 Ciaran Morrison), and RPE-1 p53 -/- HsSAS-6 knock out cells (Wang et al., 2015) 799 (generous gift from Bryan Tsou). All media were supplemented with 10% fetal 800 bovine serum, 2 mM L-glutamine, 100 units/ml penicillin and 100 μg/ml 801 streptomycin (all from Sigma-Aldrich) and grown at 37°C in 5% CO2. HeLa Kyoto 802 cells were synchronized using a double-thymidine block and release protocol as 803 follows: cells were incubated in medium with 2 mM thymidine (Sigma Aldrich, 804 T9250) for 17 h, released for 8 h and again incubated with 2 mM Thymidine for 805 17 h. For single transfection experiments, control or TRIM37 siRNAs 806 transfections were performed during the 8 h period between the two thymidine 807 treatments. For double transfection experiments, in addition to the above, either 808 control or Centrobin siRNAs were transfected before the first Thymidine 809 treatment. Drugs used in this work were 10 μM BI-2536 (S1109, Selleck 810 Chemicals), 10 μM RO-3306 (Sigma-Aldrich, SML0569), 125 nM Centrinone 811 (MCE, Hy-18682) and 150 μg/ml Cycloheximide (Sigma-Aldrich, C7698). 812 813 Transfections, plasmids and siRNAs

814 For siRNA treatments, cells were typically transfected in a 6 well plate format 815 with 20 μM siRNAs and 4 μL Lipofectamine RNAiMAX (Thermo Fisher Scientific); 816 the depletion phenotype was inspected 72 h after transfection unless otherwise 817 indicated in the text or the legends. siRNAs sequences were as follows: TRIM37 818 (5‘-UUAAGGACCGGA GCAGUAUAGAAAA-3’) (Balestra et al., 2013), Centrobin (5‘- 819 AGUGCCAGACUGCAGCAACGGGAAA-3’) (Zou et al., 2005), SPICE (5‘- 820 GCAGCUGAGAACAAAUGAGUCAUUA-3’) (Archinti et al., 2010), HsSAS6 (5‘- 821 GCACGUUAAUCAGCUACAAUU-3’) (Strnad et al., 2007), STIL (5‘- 822 AACGUUUACCAUACAAAGAAA-3’) (Kitagawa et al., 2011a), CPAP (5‘- 823 AGAAUUAGCUCGAAUAGAA-3’) (Kitagawa et al., 2011a), and Stealth RNAi™ 824 siRNA Negative Control Lo GC (Ref: 12935200; Invitrogen). For plasmid 825 transient transfection, FuGENE 6 Transfection Reagent (Promega) was used 826 according to the manufacturer’s protocol and the phenotype inspected 24 or 48 827 h after transfection. Transfected plasmids were as follows: pEBTet-TRIM37:GFP 828 (Balestra et al., 2013), pGFP-Centrobin:GFP (pGFP-NIP2) (Shin et al., 2015) 829 (generous gift from Kunsoo Rhee, Seoul National University, Korea) pEGFP:SPICE 830 (Archinti et al., 2010) (generous gift from Jens Lüders, IRB, Barcelona, Spain) 831 pcDNA3-TRIM37:GFP and pcDNA3-TRIM37:NES:GFP were generated by cloning 832 the TRIM37 ORF (964 aa) fused to GFP or to the HIV-Rev NES sequence 833 (LQLPPLERLTLD) (Wen et al., 1995) and GFP. 834 835 Immunoblotting and Cycloheximide chase assay 836 For Western blot analysis, cells were lysed either in 2× Laemmli buffer (4% SDS, 837 20% glycerol, 125 mM Tris-HCl, pH 6.8) and passed 10 times through a 0.5 mm 838 needle–mounted syringe to reduce viscosity, or in NP40 lysis buffer [10 mM 839 Tris/HCl (pH 7.4)/150 mM NaCl/10% (v/v) glycerol/1% (v/v) Nonidet P40/1 840 mM PMSF and 1 μg/ml of each pepstatin, leupeptin, and aprotinin (Sigma- 841 Aldrich) for 20 min at 4°C and then for 3 min at 37°C, before centrifugation at 842 20,000 g for 20 min. In this manner, the soluble fraction was separated from the 843 insoluble pellet, which was then solubilized in 1x Laemmli buffer. Protein 844 concentration was determined with a NanoDrop Spectrophotometer. Lysates 845 were resolved by SDS-PAGE on a 10% polyacrylamide gel and immunoblotted on 846 Immobilon-P transfer membrane (IPVH00010; 21 Millipore Corporation).

847 Membranes were first blocked with TBS containing 0.05% Tween-20 (TBST) and 848 5% non-fat dry milk (TBST-5% milk) for 1h at room temperature, and then 849 incubated with primary antibodies diluted in PBST-5% milk. Primary antibodies 850 were 1:1000 rabbit anti-TRIM37 (A301-174A; Bethyl Laboratories), 1:30,000 851 mouse anti- α -tubulin (DM1a; Sigma-Aldrich), 1:500 rabbit anti-Centrobin 852 (HPA023321; Atlas), and 1:20,000 anti-HSP70 (sc-24; Santa Cruz). Membranes 853 were washed and incubated for 1h in secondary antibodies prepared also in 854 TBST-5% milk. Secondary antibodies were 1:5,000 HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit 855 (W4011; Promega) or mouse (W4021; Promega) IgGs. The signal was detected 856 by standard chemiluminescence (34077; Thermo Scientific). Alternatively, 857 polyacrylamide gels were immunoblotted on low fluorescence PVDF membranes 858 (Immobilon-FL, Millipore), membranes blocked with Odyssey Blocking Buffer 859 (LI-COR) and blotted with appropriate primary antibodies and 1:5,000 860 secondary antibodies IRDye 680RD anti-mouse IgG (H+L) Goat LI-COR (926- 861 68070) and IRDye 800CW anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) Goat LI-COR (926-32211). 862 Membranes were then air-dried in the dark and scanned in an Odyssey Infrared 863 Imaging System (LI-COR), and images analyzed with ImageStudio software (LI- 864 COR). In all cases, membrane washes were in TBST. For the cycloheximide chase 865 experiment, HeLa Kyoto cells were treated with fresh DMEM containing 150 866 μg/ml cycloheximide (CHX). Cells were collected 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 h after CHX 867 addition, and protein extracts prepared in 2× Laemmli buffer as described above. 868 40 μg of siControl lysate and 20 μg of siTRIM37 lysate were resolved by SDS- 869 PAGE, analyzed by immunoblotting with Centrobin and α-tubulin antibodies 870 before quantification with ImageStudio. The siControl and siTRIM37 conditions 871 at time 0 were normalized as 100%, and the other conditions for the same siRNA 872 treatment expressed relative to this. Centrobin expression was quantified as the 873 Centrobin signal divided by the α-tubulin signal. 874 875 RNA isolation, reverse transcription and real-time PCR 876 RNA was extracted using the RNeasy Mini kit according to the manufacturer’s 877 instruction (QIAGEN), including DNase I to avoid potential contaminations with 878 DNA. 3 μg of total RNA, random hexamers and SuperScript III Reverse 879 Transcriptase (InvitrogenTM) were used to obtain complementary DNA (cDNA).

Secondary antibodies were 1:500 mouse Alexa-488, 1:3000 rabbit 922 Cy3, 1:3000 human Alexa-633, 1:1000 mouse Alexa-649, and 1:500 human 923 Alexa-488, all from Jackson ImmunoResearch. For microtubule 924 depolymerization-regrowth experiments, cells were first incubated at 4°C for 30 925 min, then rinsed in pre-warmed medium (37°C), followed by incubation at room 926 temperature for 1-2 min to allow microtubule regrowth. Thereafter, cells were 927 fixed and stained as described above. 928 929 Live imaging, ultrastructure expansion microscopy and confocal microscopy 930 HeLa Centrin-1:GFP cells were transfected with control or TRIM37 siRNAs for 48 931 hours, transferred to 35mm imaging dishes (Ibidi, cat.no 81156), and imaged at 932 37°C and 5% CO2 in medium supplemented with 25mM HEPES (Thermofisher) 933 and 1% PenStrep (Thermofisher). Combined DIC and GFP-epifluorescence time- 934 lapse microscopy was performed on a motorized Zeiss Axio Observer D1 using a 935 63x 1.4 NA plan-Apochromat oil immersion objective, equipped with an Andor 936 Zyla 4.2 sCMOS camera, a piezo controlled Z-stage (Ludl Electronic Products), 937 and an LED light source (Lumencor SOLA II). Imaging was conducted every 10 938 minutes, capturing Z-stacks of optical sections 0.5um apart, covering a total 939 height of 8 um. Ultrastructure expansion microscopy was conducted essential as 940 reported (Gambarotto et al., 2019). For imaging, the sample was mounted on a 941 25 mm round poly-D-lysine coated precision coverslip.

946 blue 63× 1.4 NA oil objective. All images shown are maximal intensity 947 projections. Image processing was carried out using Image J and Adobe 948 Photoshop (Adobe). 949 950 Correlative light electron microcopy (CLEM) 951 HeLa and RPE-1 cells expressing Centrin-1:GFP were cultured in glass-bottom 952 Petri dishes (MatTek, Cat. No. P35G-1.5-14-CGRD), with an alpha-numeric grid 953 pattern, and transfected with control or TRIM37 siRNAs. Cells were chemically 954 fixed 72 h after transfection with a buffered solution of 1 % glutaraldehyde 2 % 955 paraformaldehyde in 0.1 M phosphate buffer at pH 7.4. Dishes were then 956 screened with a wide-field fluorescent microscope (Zeiss Observer D1, using a 957 63x 1.4 NA oil objective) to identify cells of interest, which were imaged with 958 both transmitted and fluorescence microscopy to register the position of each 959 cell on the grid, as well as the location of their GFP foci, capturing optical slices 960 500 nm apart. The cells were then washed thoroughly with cacodylate buffer 961 (0.1M, pH 7.4), postfixed for 40 min in 1.0 % osmium tetroxide 1.5% potassium 962 ferrocyanide, and then for 40 min in 1.0% osmium tetroxide alone. Finally, cells 963 were stained for 40 min in 1% uranyl acetate in water before dehydration 964 through increasing concentrations of alcohol and then embedding in Durcupan 965 ACM resin (Fluka, Switzerland). The coverslips were then covered with 1 mm of 966 resin, which was hardened for 18 hours in a 65° C oven. The coverslips were 967 removed from the cured resin by immersing them alternately into hot (60° C) 968 water followed by liquid nitrogen until the coverslips parted. Regions of resin 969 containing the cells of interest were then identified according to their position on 970 the alpha-numeric grid, cut away from the rest of the material and glued to blank 971 resin block. Ultra-thin (50 nm thick) serial sections were cut through the entire 972 cell with a diamond knife (Diatome) and ultramicrotome (Leica Microsystems, 973 UC7), and collected onto single slot grids with a pioloform support film. Sections 974 were further contrasted with lead citrate and uranyl acetate and images taken in 975 a transmission electron microscope (FEI Company, Tecnai Spirit) with a digital 976 camera (FEI Company, Eagle). To correlate the light microscopy images with the 977 EM images and identify the exact position of the Centrin-1:GFP foci, fluorescent

1244 Supplementary Figure 3. CLEM analysis of Cenpas 1245 A-E. CLEM analysis of HeLa and RPE-1 cells expressing Centrin-1:GFP and 1246 transfected with control (A-B) or TRIM37 (C-E) siRNAs. Left-most images show 1247 maximal intensity projection of wide-field microcopy image covering the entire 1248 cell volume; scale bar: 5 μm. Magnified insets from the light microscopy images 1249 are shown above the electron microscopy images taken from the corresponding 1250 position. C corresponds to cell 2, D to cell 7, and E to cell 6 in Fig. S3F. When 1251 present, white arrows indicate the Centrin-1:GFP focus that correlates with the 1252 EM imaged shown below. Scale bars in insets are 500 nm. Orange, green and 1253 pink dashed lines surround respectively centriole-like, centriole-related and 1254 tiger structures. Filled orange lines surround resident centrioles. 1255 F. Summary of CLEM analysis of HeLa or RPE-1 cells depleted of TRIM37, with 1256 number of GFP foci, as well as corresponding resident centriole/procentriole and 1257 Cenpas ultrastructure identified by CLEM. See main text for further details. Note 1258 that no distinct ultrastructure was found for 5 Centrin-1:GFP foci in cell 4, 1259 perhaps reflecting a technical issue in this case. 1260
