SnapShot: Microtubule Regulators I Karen Lyle, Praveen Kumar, and Torsten Wittmann Department of Cell and Tissue Biology, University of California, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA Dynamic remodeling of the microtubule cytoskeleton is essential for many cellular processes, including cell division, migration, and differentiation. Microtubules are dynamic polymers composed of α/β-tubulin dimers, and they switch stochastically between phases of growth (polymerization) and shortening (depolymerization). The transition from microtubule growth to shortening is referred to as catastrophe, and the transition from microtubule shortening to growth is called rescue. Intracellular microtubule organization is controlled by the activity and distribution of nucleation sites and by the activity of microtubule-regulatory proteins. These proteins may influ- ence polymerization dynamics directly, may cut or bundle existing microtubules, or may stabilize microtubules indirectly. In cells, microtubule nucleation is mediated by the multisubunit γ-tubulin ring complex (γ-TuRC), which is recruited to centrosomes or spindle poles by associated proteins such as Cep192. However, the regulation of microtubule nucleation is incompletely understood. In differentiated cells, microtubule minus ends are often redistributed away from the centrosome. For example, the protein ninein anchors minus ends to cell-cell junctions in polarized epithelial cells and to desmosomes in differentiated keratinocytes. Several different proteins influence microtubule polymerization dynamics by directly interacting with microtubule plus ends. EB-family proteins directly recognize biochemical or structural differ- ences at the growing microtubule plus ends, influence microtubule polymerization dynamics, and may act as adaptors that mediate the association of other proteins with growing microtubule plus ends. Proteins of the XMAP215 family are thought to enhance the microtubule polymerization rate by processively adding tubulin subunits to the growing microtubule plus ends. In contrast, the CRMP-2 protein in neurons enhances microtubule assembly by interacting with free tubulin dimers. Microtubule disassembly is promoted by two different mechanisms. Stathmin is a small protein that binds to tubulin dimers and lowers the pool of free tubulin avail- able for polymerization, thus decreasing the microtubule growth rate and increasing the frequency of spontaneous depolymerization (catastrophe). In contrast, internal motor domain kinesins bind directly to microtubule ends and use ATP hydrolysis to catalytically depolymerize microtubules. Microtubule-severing proteins cut existing microtubules, generating new minus and plus ends. The generation of short microtubule fragments by these proteins is important for the reorganization of the micro- tubule cytoskeleton without requiring complete microtubule disassembly. Because organization and dynamics of the microtubule cytoskeleton are crucial for many cellular functions, most direct regulators of microtubule nucleation, polymerization, and disassembly are involved in multiple cell processes. In addition, the existence of plant-specific families of microtubule regulatory proteins, such as SPIRAL, highlights important differences in microtubule function and organization between plants and animals.

The mechanistic basis for BRCA, however, remains incompletely understood. In particular, the relationships between driver mutations and signaling pathways in BRCA are poorly characterized, making it dicult to identify reliable clinical biomarkers that can be employed in diagnostic, therapeutic, or prognostic contexts. Methods: First, we downloaded publically available BRCA datasets (GSE45827, GSE42568, and GSE61304) from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. We then compared gene expression proles between tumor and control tissues in these datasets using Venn diagrams and the GEO2R analytical tool. We further explore the functional relevance of BRCA-associated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) via functional and pathway enrichment analyses using the DAVID tool, and we then constructed a protein-protein interaction network incorporating DEGs of interest using the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes (STRING) database.

  • The Basal Bodies of Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii Susan K
    Dutcher and O’Toole Cilia (2016) 5:18 DOI 10.1186/s13630-016-0039-z Cilia REVIEW Open Access The basal bodies of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Susan K. Dutcher1* and Eileen T. O’Toole2 Abstract The unicellular green alga, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, is a biflagellated cell that can swim or glide. C. reinhardtii cells are amenable to genetic, biochemical, proteomic, and microscopic analysis of its basal bodies. The basal bodies contain triplet microtubules and a well-ordered transition zone. Both the mother and daughter basal bodies assemble flagella. Many of the proteins found in other basal body-containing organisms are present in the Chlamydomonas genome, and mutants in these genes affect the assembly of basal bodies. Electron microscopic analysis shows that basal body duplication is site-specific and this may be important for the proper duplication and spatial organization of these organelles. Chlamydomonas is an excellent model for the study of basal bodies as well as the transition zone. Keywords: Site-specific basal body duplication, Cartwheel, Transition zone, Centrin fibers Phylogeny and conservation of proteins Centrin, SPD2/CEP192, Asterless/CEP152; CEP70, The green lineage or Viridiplantae consists of the green delta-tubulin, and epsilon-tubulin. Chlamydomonas has algae, which include Chlamydomonas, the angiosperms homologs of all of these based on sequence conservation (the land plants), and the gymnosperms (conifers, cycads, except PLK4, CEP152, and CEP192. Several lines of evi- ginkgos). They are grouped together because they have dence suggests that CEP152, CEP192, and PLK4 interact chlorophyll a and b and lack phycobiliproteins. The green [20, 52] and their concomitant absence in several organ- algae together with the cycads and ginkgos have basal isms suggests that other mechanisms exist that allow for bodies and cilia, while the angiosperms and conifers have control of duplication [4].

  • Par6c Is at the Mother Centriole and Controls Centrosomal Protein
    860 Research Article Par6c is at the mother centriole and controls centrosomal protein composition through a Par6a-dependent pathway Vale´rian Dormoy, Kati Tormanen and Christine Su¨ tterlin* Department of Developmental and Cell Biology, University of California, Irvine, Irvine, CA 92697-2300, USA *Author for correspondence ([email protected]) Accepted 3 December 2012 Journal of Cell Science 126, 860–870 ß 2013. Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd doi: 10.1242/jcs.121186 Summary The centrosome contains two centrioles that differ in age, protein composition and function. This non-membrane bound organelle is known to regulate microtubule organization in dividing cells and ciliogenesis in quiescent cells. These specific roles depend on protein appendages at the older, or mother, centriole. In this study, we identified the polarity protein partitioning defective 6 homolog gamma (Par6c) as a novel component of the mother centriole. This specific localization required the Par6c C-terminus, but was independent of intact microtubules, the dynein/dynactin complex and the components of the PAR polarity complex. Par6c depletion resulted in altered centrosomal protein composition, with the loss of a large number of proteins, including Par6a and p150Glued, from the centrosome. As a consequence, there were defects in ciliogenesis, microtubule organization and centrosome reorientation during migration. Par6c interacted with Par3 and aPKC, but these proteins were not required for the regulation of centrosomal protein composition. Par6c also associated with Par6a, which controls protein recruitment to the centrosome through p150Glued. Our study is the first to identify Par6c as a component of the mother centriole and to report a role of a mother centriole protein in the regulation of centrosomal protein composition.

  • The P53/P73 - P21cip1 Tumor Suppressor Axis Guards Against Chromosomal Instability by Restraining CDK1 in Human Cancer Cells
    Oncogene (2021) 40:436–451 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41388-020-01524-4 ARTICLE The p53/p73 - p21CIP1 tumor suppressor axis guards against chromosomal instability by restraining CDK1 in human cancer cells 1 1 2 1 2 Ann-Kathrin Schmidt ● Karoline Pudelko ● Jan-Eric Boekenkamp ● Katharina Berger ● Maik Kschischo ● Holger Bastians 1 Received: 2 July 2020 / Revised: 2 October 2020 / Accepted: 13 October 2020 / Published online: 9 November 2020 © The Author(s) 2020. This article is published with open access Abstract Whole chromosome instability (W-CIN) is a hallmark of human cancer and contributes to the evolvement of aneuploidy. W-CIN can be induced by abnormally increased microtubule plus end assembly rates during mitosis leading to the generation of lagging chromosomes during anaphase as a major form of mitotic errors in human cancer cells. Here, we show that loss of the tumor suppressor genes TP53 and TP73 can trigger increased mitotic microtubule assembly rates, lagging chromosomes, and W-CIN. CDKN1A, encoding for the CDK inhibitor p21CIP1, represents a critical target gene of p53/p73. Loss of p21CIP1 unleashes CDK1 activity which causes W-CIN in otherwise chromosomally stable cancer cells. fi Vice versa 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: Consequently, induction of CDK1 is suf cient to induce abnormal microtubule assembly rates and W-CIN. , partial inhibition of CDK1 activity in chromosomally unstable cancer cells corrects abnormal microtubule behavior and suppresses W-CIN. Thus, our study shows that the p53/p73 - p21CIP1 tumor suppressor axis, whose loss is associated with W-CIN in human cancer, safeguards against chromosome missegregation and aneuploidy by preventing abnormally increased CDK1 activity.
