The activity of Cdk1-op- posing phosphatases at the centrosome must be inhibited during early mitosis to prevent premature dephosphorylation of Cdh1—an activator of the ubiquitin ligase anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome—and the consequent premature degradation of mitotic activators. In this paper, we show that reversible oxidative inactivation of centrosome-bound protein phosphatases such as Cdc14B by H2O2 is likely responsible for this inhibition. The intracellular concentration of H2O2 increases as the cell cycle progresses. Whereas the centrosome is shielded from H2O2 through its association with the H2O2-eliminating enzyme peroxiredoxin I (PrxI) during interphase, the centrosome-associated PrxI is selectively in- activated through phosphorylation by Cdk1 during early mitosis, thereby exposing the centrosome to H2O2 and facili- Downloaded from tating inactivation of centrosome-bound phosphatases. Dephosphorylation of PrxI by okadaic acid–sensitive phosphatases during late mitosis again shields the centrosome from H2O2 and thereby allows the reactivation of Cdk1-opposing phosphatases at the organelle.

Successful cell cycle centrosome (Leach et al., 2003; Cho et al., 2005; Peters, 2006; progression requires that many cell cycle regulators—including Wu et al., 2008; Schmitz et al., 2010), as are Cdk1, Cdc25, cyclin cyclins A and B, Plk1, and Aurora A—be degraded in a timely B, Plk1, and Aurora A.
