β-TrCP-Mediated Proteolysis of Mis18β Prevents Mislocalization of CENP-A and Chromosomal Instability.

ABSTRACT: Restricting the localization of evolutionarily conserved histone H3 variant CENP-A to the centromere is essential to prevent chromosomal instability (CIN), an important hallmark of cancers. Overexpressed CENP-A mislocalizes to non-centromeric regions and contributes to CIN in yeast, flies, and human cells. Centromeric localization of CENP-A is facilitated by the interaction of Mis18β with CENP-A specific chaperone HJURP. Cellular levels of Mis18β are regulated by β-transducin repeat containing protein (β-TrCP), an F-box protein of SCF (Skp1, Cullin, F-box) E3-ubiquitin ligase complex. Here, we show that defects in β-TrCP-mediated proteolysis of Mis18β contributes to the mislocalization of endogenous CENP-A and CIN in a triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cell line, MDA-MB-231.
