China Received September 28, 2019; Accepted May 7, 2020 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2020.11752 Abstract. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a heterogeneous cyclin B1 (CCNB1), cell-division cycle protein 20 (CDC20), malignancy, which is a major cause of cancer morbidity and cyclin-dependent kinase 1, BUB1 mitotic checkpoint serine/ mortality worldwide. Thus, the aim of the present study was threonine kinase β (BUB1B), cyclin A2, nucleolar and spindle to identify the hub genes and underlying pathways of HCC associated protein 1, ubiquitin‑conjugating enzyme E2 C via bioinformatics analyses. The present study screened three (UBE2C) and ZW10 interactor. Furthermore, upregulated datasets, including GSE112790, GSE84402 and GSE74656 CCNB1, CDC20, BUB1B and UBE2C expression levels from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, and indicated worse disease-free and overall survival. Moreover, downloaded the RNA-sequencing of HCC from The Cancer a meta-analysis of tumor and healthy tissues in the Oncomine Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. -

Several regulators of the mitotic checkpoint have been identified checkpoint is shown to induce mitotic arrest in response to DNA damage, indicating overlapping roles of the spindle and most of them are localized to the kinetochore, which is checkpoint and DNA damage checkpoint. In this study, we connected to both the chromosome and the spindle (1). One of investigated if MAD2 played a part in cellular sensitivity to them, mitotic arrest deficient 2 (MAD2), is thought to be a key DNA-damaging agents, especially cisplatin, and whether it was component for a functional mitotic checkpoint because it is regulated through mitotic checkpoint.

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.

Molecular analysis of the genes involved in to the chromosomal instability observed in human cancers, the spindle checkpoint has revealed relatively few genetic including oral squamous cell carcinoma.

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. -
The Aurora B Kinase Activity Is Required for the Maintenance of the Differentiated State of Murine Myoblasts

Reversine is also a potent inhibitor of Aurora B, a protein kinase required for mitotic chromosome segregation, spindle checkpoint function, cytokinesis and histone H3 phosphorylation, raising the possibility that the dedifferentiation capability of reversine is mediated through the inhibition of Aurora B. Indeed, here we show that several other well-characterized Aurora B inhibitors are capable of dedifferentiating C2C12 myoblasts. Significantly, expressing drug-resistant Aurora B mutants, which are insensitive to reversine block the dedifferentiation process, indicating that Aurora B kinase activity is required to maintain the differentiated state. We show that the inhibition of the spindle checkpoint or cytokinesis per se is not sufficient for dedifferentiation. Rather, our data support a model whereby changes in histone H3 phosphorylation result in chromatin remodeling, which in turn restores the multipotent state.

Mph1 Kinetochore Localization Is Crucial and Upstream in The
4720 Short Report Mph1 kinetochore localization is crucial and upstream in the hierarchy of spindle assembly checkpoint protein recruitment to kinetochores Stephanie Heinrich1, Hanna Windecker1,2, Nicole Hustedt1,3 and Silke Hauf1,* 1Friedrich Miescher Laboratory of the Max Planck Society, Spemannstrasse 39, D-72076 Tuebingen, Germany 2Present address: Septomics Research Centre, Albert-Einstein-Strasse 10, D-07745 Jena, Germany 3Present address: Friedrich Miescher Institute, Maulbeerstrasse 66, CH-4058 Basel, Switzerland *Author for correspondence ([email protected]) Accepted 7 June 2012 Journal of Cell Science 125, 4720–4727 ß 2012. Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd doi: 10.1242/jcs.110387 Summary The spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) blocks entry into anaphase until all chromosomes have stably attached to the mitotic spindle through their kinetochores. The checkpoint signal originates from unattached kinetochores, where there is an enrichment of SAC proteins. Whether the enrichment of all SAC proteins is crucial for SAC signaling is unclear. Here, we provide evidence that, in fission yeast, recruitment of the kinase Mph1 is of vital importance for a stable SAC arrest. An Mph1 mutant that eliminates kinetochore enrichment abolishes SAC signaling, whereas forced recruitment of this mutant to kinetochores restores SAC signaling. In bub3D cells, the SAC is functional when only Mph1 and the Aurora kinase Ark1, but no other SAC proteins, are enriched at kinetochores. We analyzed the network of dependencies for SAC protein localization to kinetochores and identify a three-layered hierarchy with Ark1 and Mph1 on top, Bub1 and Bub3 in the middle, and Mad3 as well as the Mad1–Mad2 complex at the lower end of the hierarchy.
