A common molecular mechanism underlies the role of Mps1 in chromosome biorientation and the spindle assembly checkpoint

ABSTRACT: The conserved Mps1 kinase corrects improper kinetochore-microtubule attachments, thereby ensuring chromosome biorientation. Yet, its critical targets in this process remain elusive. Mps1 is also involved in the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC), the surveillance mechanism halting chromosome segregation until biorientation is attained. Its role in SAC activation is antagonized by the PP1 phosphatase and involves phosphorylation of Knl1/Spc105, which recruits Bub1 to kinetochores to promote assembly of SAC effector complexes. A crucial question is whether error correction and SAC activation are part of a single device or separable pathways. Here we characterise a novel yeast mutant, mps1-3, defective in chromosome biorientation and SAC activation. Through an unbiased screen for suppressors, we found that mutations lowering PP1 levels at Spc105 or forced association of Bub1 with Spc105 reinstate both chromosome biorientation and SAC signalling in mps1-3 cells. Our data strongly argue that Mps1-dependent phosphorylation of the Knl1/Spc105 kinetochore scaffold is critical for Mps1 function in both chromosome biorientation and SAC activation, thus supporting the idea that a common sensory apparatus simultaneously elicits error correction and SAC signalling.

Shugoshin biases chromosomes for biorientation through condensin recruitment to the pericentromere

Project description:To protect against aneuploidy, chromosomes must attach to microtubules from opposite poles (“biorientation”) prior to their segregation during mitosis. Biorientation relies on the correction of erroneous attachments by the aurora B kinase, which destabilizes kinetochore-microtubule attachments that lack tension. Incorrect attachments are also avoided because sister kinetochores are intrinsically biased towards capture by microtubules from opposite poles. Here we show that shugoshin acts as a pericentromeric adaptor that plays dual roles in biorientation in budding yeast. Shugoshin maintains the aurora B kinase at kinetochores that lack tension, thereby engaging the error correction machinery. Shugoshin also recruits the chromosome-organising complex, condensin, to the pericentromere. Pericentromeric condensin biases sister kinetochores towards capture by microtubules from opposite poles. Overall, shugoshin integrates a bias to sister kinetochore capture with error correction to enable chromosome biorientation. Our findings uncover the molecular basis of the bias to sister kinetochore capture and expose shugoshin as a pericentromeric hub controlling chromosome biorientation.

Mps1 regulates kinetochore-microtubule attachment stability via the Ska complex to ensure error-free chromosome segregation

Project description:Spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) regulators such as the Mps1 kinase not only delay anaphase onset, but also correct improper chromosome-spindle linkages that would otherwise lead to missegregation and aneuploidy. However, the substrates and mechanisms involved in this pathway of error correction remain poorly understood. Using a chemically tuned kinetochore-targeting assay, we show that Mps1 destabilizes microtubule attachments (K-fibers) epistatically to Aurora B, the other major error-correcting kinase. Through chemical genetics and quantitative proteomics, we identify both known and novel sites of Mps1- regulated phosphorylation at the outer kinetochore. Modification of these substrates was sensitive to microtubule tension and counterbalanced by the PP2A-B56 phosphatase, a positive regulator of chromosome-spindle interactions. Consistently, Mps1 inhibition rescued K-fiber stability after depleting PP2A-B56. We also identify the hinge region of the W-shaped Ska complex as a key effector of Mps1 at the kinetochore-microtubule interface, as mutations that mimic constitutive phosphorylation strongly destabilized K-fibers in vivo and inhibited the Ska complex’s conversion from lattice diffusion to end-coupled microtubule binding in vitro. Together these results provide new insights into how Mps1 modulates the microtubule-binding properties of the kinetochore to promote the selective stabilization of bipolar attachments and error-free chromosome segregation.

Greatwall kinase regulates SAC by controlling phosphorylation and activity of MPS1

Project description:The Greatwall/Mastl kinase is an essential gene, which regulates the phosphatase activity that counteracts the phosphorylation of Cdk1 substrates. Although Mastl-/- MEFs can enter mitosis, they are unable to complete mitosis due to chromosome segregation defects. Here, we show that Mastl is essential for robust spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) maintenance. Mastl-/- MEFs display reduced phosphorylation and kinase activity of MPS1, which causes mislocalization of MPS1, Mad1, and Aurora B from the kinetochore and the inner centromere regions. This results in premature inactivation of SAC signalling and early anaphase onset without correction of chromosome-spindle attachment mistakes. Treatment of the knockout cells with protein phosphatase II inhibitor okadaic acid (OA) rescued decreased MPS1 activity, mislocalization of Aurora B, Mad1, MPS1, and premature mitotic slippage. Our data demonstrates how regulation of PP2A activity by Mastl kinase prevents premature SAC silencing as a result of controlling the phosphorylation status and activity of MPS1.

A Siz1/Siz2-mediated SUMOylation programme inactivates the shugoshin-associated phosphatase-kinase network to stabilize sister kinetochore biorientation

Project description:The accurate segregation of chromosomes during mitosis relies on the attachment of sister chromatids to microtubules from opposite poles, called biorientation. Sister chromatid cohesion resists microtubule forces, generating tension which provides the signal that biorientation has occurred. How tension silences the surveillance pathways that prevent cell cycle progression and correct erroneous kinetochore-microtubule attachments remains unclear. Here we identify SUMOylation as a mechanism that promotes anaphase onset upon biorientation. SUMO ligases modify the tension-sensing pericentromere-localized chromatin protein, shugoshin, to stabilize bioriented sister kinetochore-microtubule attachments. In the absence of SUMOylation, Aurora B kinase removal from kinetochores is delayed. Shugoshin SUMOylation prevents its binding to protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) and release of this interaction is important for stabilizing sister kinetochore biorientation. We propose that SUMOylation modulates the kinase-phosphatase network within pericentromeres to inactivate the error correction machinery, thereby allowing anaphase entry in response to biorientation.

Bub1 and CENP-U redundantly recruit Plk1 to stabilize kinetochore-microtubule attachments and ensure accurate chromosome segregation

Project description:Bub1 is required for the kinetochore/centromere localization of two essential mitotic kinases Plk1 and Aurora B. Surprisingly, stable depletion of Bub1 by ~95% in human cells marginally affects whole chromosome segregation fidelity. We show that CENP-U, which is recruited to kinetochores by the CENP-P and CENP-Q subunits of the CENP-O complex, is required to prevent chromosome mis-segregation in Bub1-depleted cells. Mechanistically, Bub1 and CENP-U redundantly recruit Plk1 to kinetochores to stabilize kinetochore-microtubule attachments, thereby ensuring accurate chromosome segregation. Furthermore, unlike its budding yeast homolog, the CENP-O complex does not regulate centromeric localization of Aurora B. Consistently, depletion of Bub1 or CENP-U sensitizes cells to the inhibition of Plk1 but not Aurora B kinase activity. Taken together, our findings provide mechanistic insight into the regulation of kinetochore function, which may have implications for targeted treatment of cancer cells with mutations perturbing kinetochore recruitment of Plk1 by Bub1 or the CENP-O complex.

Small changes in phospho-occupancy at the kinetochore-microtubule interface drive mitotic fidelity

Project description:Kinetochore protein phosphorylation promotes the correction of erroneous microtubule attachments to ensure faithful chromosome segregation during cell division. Determining how phosphorylation executes error correction requires an understanding of whether kinetochore substrates are completely (i.e. all-or-none) or only fractionally phosphorylated. Using quantitative mass spectrometry (MS), we measured phospho-occupancy on the conserved kinetochore protein Hec1 (NDC80) that directly binds microtubules. None of the positions measured exceeded ~50% phospho-occupancy, and the cumulative phospho-occupancy changed by only ~20% in response to changes in microtubule attachment status. The narrow dynamic range of phospho-occupancy is maintained, in part, by ongoing phosphatase activity. Further, both Cdk1-Cyclin B1 and Aurora kinases phosphorylate Hec1 to enhance error correction in response to different types of microtubule attachment errors. The low inherent phospho-occupancy promotes microtubule attachment to kinetochores while the high sensitivity of kinetochore-microtubule attachments to small changes in phospho-occupancy drives error correction and ensures high mitotic fidelity.

Juxtaposition of Bub1 and Cdc20 on phosphorylated Mad1 during catalytic mitotic checkpoint complex assembly (IGX-MS data)

Project description:During metaphase, in response to improper kinetochore-microtubule attachments, the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) activates the mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC) to inhibit the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C). The Mad1-Mad2 complex provides a catalytic platform for MCC assembly. Mad1-bound Mad2 recruits open-Mad2 through asymmetric dimerization and Mad1 phosphorylation by Mps1 promotes conversion of Mad2 from an open (O-Mad2) to closed (C-Mad2) state, which binds Cdc20 to form the MCC. How Mad1 phosphorylation catalytically activates MCC formation is poorly understood. This study characterises Mad1 phosphorylation by Mps1 and provides structural and biochemical insights into a phosphorylation-specific Mad1-Cdc20 interaction, which allows for a tripartite assembly of Bub1-Mad1-Cdc20 on the C-terminal domain of Mad1. We also identify a folded state of Mad1-Mad2 complex, suggesting a model by which the Cdc20-Mad1 interaction brings the Cdc20 MIM motif near Mad2. The Cdc20 MIM motif is then entrapped by the Mad2 safety belt to form a stable complex, allowing spontaneous MCC assembly.

SUMOylation regulates the metaphase-anaphase transition by stabilizing sister kinetochore biorientation

Project description:The accurate segregation of chromosomes during mitosis relies on the attachment of sister chromatids to microtubules from opposite poles, called biorientation. Sister chromatid cohesion resists microtubule forces, generating tension which provides the signal that biorientation has occurred. How tension silences the surveillance pathways that prevent cell cycle progression and correct erroneous kinetochore-microtubule remains unclear. Here we identify SUMOylation as a mechanism that promotes anaphase onset upon biorientation. SUMO ligases modify the tension-sensing pericentromere-localized chromatin protein, shugoshin, to stabilize bioriented sister kinetochore-microtubule attachments and allow entry into anaphase. SUMOylation of shugoshin prevents binding to protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), while enhancing chromosome passenger complex (CPC) interaction and removal from centromeres. Dissociation of the shugoshin-PP2A interaction is important for stabilizing sister kinetochore biorientation. Therefore, SUMOylation modulates protein interactions within pericentromeres to allow a signalling switch in response to biorientation.

Efficient checkpoint signaling depends on the integrated activities of Bub1 and the RZZ complex

Project description:Kinetochore localized Mad1 is essential for generating a “wait anaphase” signal during mitosis hereby ensuring accurate chromosome segregation. Inconsistent models for the function and quantitative contribution of the two mammalian Mad1 kinetochore receptors: Bub1 and the Rod-Zwilch-ZW10 (RZZ) complex exist. By combining genome editing and RNAi we achieve penetrant removal of Bub1 and Rod in human cells, which reveals that efficient checkpoint signaling depends on the integrated activities of these proteins. Rod removal reduces the proximity of Bub1 and Mad1 and we can bypass the requirement for Rod by tethering Mad1 to kinetochores or increasing the strength of the Bub1-Mad1 interaction. We find that Bub1 has checkpoint functions independent of Mad1 localization that are supported by low levels of Bub1 suggesting a catalytic function. In conclusion, our results support an integrated model for the Mad1 receptors in which the primary role of RZZ is to localize Mad1 at kinetochores to generate the Mad1-Bub1 complex.
