  • Mad1 Kinetochore Recruitment by Mps1-Mediated Phosphorylation of Bub1 Signals the Spindle Checkpoint
    Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on September 29, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Mad1 kinetochore recruitment by Mps1-mediated phosphorylation of Bub1 signals the spindle checkpoint Nitobe London1,2 and Sue Biggins1,3 1Division of Basic Sciences, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, Washington 98109, USA; 2Molecular and Cellular Biology Program, University of Washington/Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, Washington 98109, USA The spindle checkpoint is a conserved signaling pathway that ensures genomic integrity by preventing cell division when chromosomes are not correctly attached to the spindle. Checkpoint activation depends on the hierarchical recruitment of checkpoint proteins to generate a catalytic platform at the kinetochore. Although Mad1 kinetochore localization is the key regulatory downstream event in this cascade, its receptor and mechanism of recruitment have not been conclusively identified. Here, we demonstrate that Mad1 kinetochore association in budding yeast is mediated by phosphorylation of a region within the Bub1 checkpoint protein by the conserved protein kinase Mps1. Tethering this region of Bub1 to kinetochores bypasses the checkpoint requirement for Mps1-mediated kinetochore recruitment of upstream checkpoint proteins. The Mad1 interaction with Bub1 and kinetochores can be reconstituted in the presence of Mps1 and Mad2. Together, this work reveals a critical mechanism that determines kinetochore activation of the spindle checkpoint.

  • Gene Regulation and Speciation in House Mice
    Downloaded from genome.cshlp.org on September 26, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Research Gene regulation and speciation in house mice Katya L. Mack,1 Polly Campbell,2 and Michael W. Nachman1 1Museum of Vertebrate Zoology and Department of Integrative Biology, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720-3160, USA; 2Department of Integrative Biology, Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, Oklahoma 74078, USA One approach to understanding the process of speciation is to characterize the genetic architecture of post-zygotic isolation. As gene regulation requires interactions between loci, negative epistatic interactions between divergent regulatory elements might underlie hybrid incompatibilities and contribute to reproductive isolation. Here, we take advantage of a cross between house mouse subspecies, where hybrid dysfunction is largely unidirectional, to test several key predictions about regulatory divergence and reproductive isolation. Regulatory divergence between Mus musculus musculus and M. m. domesticus was charac- terized by studying allele-specific expression in fertile hybrid males using mRNA-sequencing of whole testes. We found ex- tensive regulatory divergence between M. m. musculus and M. m. domesticus, largely attributable to cis-regulatory changes. When both cis and trans changes occurred, they were observed in opposition much more often than expected under a neutral model, providing strong evidence of widespread compensatory evolution. We also found evidence for lineage-specific positive se- lection on a subset of genes related to transcriptional regulation. Comparisons of fertile and sterile hybrid males identified a set of genes that were uniquely misexpressed in sterile individuals. Lastly, we discovered a nonrandom association between these genes and genes showing evidence of compensatory evolution, consistent with the idea that regulatory interactions might contribute to Dobzhansky-Muller incompatibilities and be important in speciation.

Surface levels of transporters are also regulated by internalization. Clathrin-mediated endocytosis of cargo proteins requires adaptor protein 2 (AP2), which recruits cargo to the nascent clathrin- cage. The transporter C-terminus is required for internalization but lacks an AP2- binding site.

Meroueh*aef The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) offers an unprecedented opportunity to identify small-molecule binding sites on proteins with overexpressed mRNA levels that correlate with poor survival. Here, we analyze RNA-seq and clinical data for 10 tumor types to identify genes that are both overexpressed and correlate with patient survival. Protein products of these genes were scanned for binding sites that possess shape and physicochemical properties that can accommodate small-molecule probes or therapeutic agents (druggable). These binding sites were classified as enzyme active sites (ENZ), protein–protein interaction sites (PPI), or other sites whose function is unknown (OTH). Interestingly, the overwhelming majority of binding sites were classified as OTH. We find that ENZ, PPI, and OTH binding sites often occurred on the same structure suggesting that many of these OTH cavities can be used for allosteric modulation of Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence. enzyme activity or protein–protein interactions with small molecules.

  • 1 Spindle Assembly Checkpoint Is Sufficient for Complete Cdc20
    Spindle assembly checkpoint is sufficient for complete Cdc20 sequestering in mitotic control Bashar Ibrahim Bio System Analysis Group, Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena, and Jena Centre for Bioinformatics (JCB), 07743 Jena, Germany Email: [email protected] Abstract The spindle checkpoint assembly (SAC) ensures genome fidelity by temporarily delaying anaphase onset, until all chromosomes are properly attached to the mitotic spindle. The SAC delays mitotic progression by preventing activation of the ubiquitin ligase anaphase-promoting complex (APC/C) or cyclosome; whose activation by Cdc20 is required for sister-chromatid separation marking the transition into anaphase. The mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC), which contains Cdc20 as a subunit, binds stably to the APC/C. Compelling evidence by Izawa and Pines (Nature 2014; 10.1038/nature13911) indicates that the MCC can inhibit a second Cdc20 that has already bound and activated the APC/C. Whether or not MCC per se is sufficient to fully sequester Cdc20 and inhibit APC/C remains unclear. Here, a dynamic model for SAC regulation in which the MCC binds a second Cdc20 was constructed. This model is compared to the MCC, and the MCC-and-BubR1 (dual inhibition of APC) core model variants and subsequently validated with experimental data from the literature. By using ordinary nonlinear differential equations and spatial simulations, it is shown that the SAC works sufficiently to fully sequester Cdc20 and completely inhibit APC/C activity. This study highlights the principle that a systems biology approach is vital for molecular biology and could also be used for creating hypotheses to design future experiments.

Case presentation We reported two cases of novel BRAF gene fusion. The rst case was a 34-year-old female with RMS harboring a BRAF-MAD1L1 fusion. She suffered tumor resection, recurrence and rapid progression. The second case was a 72-year-old female with LADC harboring a BRAF-ZC3H7A fusion, and she gained rapid progression after receiving a rst-line course of chemotherapy. Conclusions These two BRAF fusions retain the intact BRAF kinase domain (exon 11-18) and showed poor prognosis in RMS and LADC. Background Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is an aggressive malignancy of soft-tissue in children and adolescents (1). There are 4.5 cases per 1 million in children per year and it accounts for 4–5% of all childhood malignancies (2).

  • Bub1 Positions Mad1 Close to KNL1 MELT Repeats to Promote Checkpoint Signalling
    ARTICLE Received 14 Dec 2016 | Accepted 3 May 2017 | Published 12 June 2017 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms15822 OPEN Bub1 positions Mad1 close to KNL1 MELT repeats to promote checkpoint signalling Gang Zhang1, Thomas Kruse1, Blanca Lo´pez-Me´ndez1, Kathrine Beck Sylvestersen1, Dimitriya H. Garvanska1, Simone Schopper1, Michael Lund Nielsen1 & Jakob Nilsson1 Proper segregation of chromosomes depends on a functional spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) and requires kinetochore localization of the Bub1 and Mad1/Mad2 checkpoint proteins. Several aspects of Mad1/Mad2 kinetochore recruitment in human cells are unclear and in particular the underlying direct interactions. Here we show that conserved domain 1 (CD1) in human Bub1 binds directly to Mad1 and a phosphorylation site exists in CD1 that stimulates Mad1 binding and SAC signalling. Importantly, fusion of minimal kinetochore-targeting Bub1 fragments to Mad1 bypasses the need for CD1, revealing that the main function of Bub1 is to position Mad1 close to KNL1 MELTrepeats. Furthermore, we identify residues in Mad1 that are critical for Mad1 functionality, but not Bub1 binding, arguing for a direct role of Mad1 in the checkpoint. This work dissects functionally relevant molecular interactions required for spindle assembly checkpoint signalling at kinetochores in human cells. 1 The Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Protein Research, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen, Blegdamsvej 3B, 2200 Copenhagen, Denmark.

ABSTRACT The spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) ensures accurate chromosome segregation by delaying anaphase onset in response to unattached kinetochores. Anaphase is delayed by the generation of the mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC) composed of the checkpoint proteins Mad2 and BubR1/Bub3 bound to the protein Cdc20. Current models assume that MCC production is catalyzed at unattached kinetochores and that the Mad1/Mad2 complex is instrumental in the conversion of Mad2 from an open form (O-Mad2) to a closed form (C-Mad2) that can bind to Cdc20.
