Parthenolide disrupts mitosis by inhibiting ZNF207/BUGZ-promoted kinetochore microtubule attachment

ABSTRACT: Parthenolide is a natural compound that has shown highly promising anticancer activity. Even though its mode of action has been studied for decades, its antimitotic activity has been largely overlooked, limiting the understanding of its full anticancer potential. In this study, we combined click chemistry with quantitative mass spectrometry and cell biology to elucidate the mechanism of action of parthenolide in mitosis. We show that parthenolide does not act as a microtubule-targeting agent in cells. Instead, it binds to the kinetochore protein ZNF207/BUGZ, preventing the establishment of proper kinetochore-microtubule attachment. Our results show that parthenolide covalently binds to Cys54 of BUGZ via Michael addition to its α-methylene-γ-lactone moiety. Since Cys54 is located within the second zinc finger domain of BUGZ microtubule-targeting region, we propose that parthenolide interferes with the microtubule-binding ability of BUGZ, consequently preventing kinetochore-microtubule attachments required for accurate chromosome congression to the spindle equator.

Mapping of cohesion factor association sites in S. cerevisiae - Meiosis I chromosome segregation is established through regulation of microtubule-kinetochore interactions.

Project description:During meiosis, a single round of DNA replication is followed by two consecutive rounds of nuclear divisions called meiosis I and meiosis II. In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes segregate, while sister chromatids remain together. Determining how this unusual chromosome segregation behavior is established is central to understanding germ cell development. Here we show that preventing microtubule-kinetochore interactions during premeiotic S phase and prophase I is essential for establishing the meiosis I chromosome segregation pattern. Premature interactions of kinetochores with microtubules transform meiosis I into a mitosis-like division by disrupting two key meiosis I events: coorientation of sister kinetochores and protection of centromeric cohesin removal from chromosomes. Furthermore we find that restricting outer kinetochore assembly contributes to preventing premature engagement of microtubules with kinetochores. We propose that inhibition of microtubule-kinetochore interactions during premeiotic S phase and prophase I is central to establishing the unique meiosis I chromosome segregation pattern. The association of the cohesion factors Rec8, Pds5, and Sgo1 were measured by ChIP-chip analysis in wild-type and CUP-CLB3 strains.

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.

The stoichiometry of the outer kinetochore responds to microtubule-proximal regulation

Project description:The authors of this manuscript suggest the stoichiometry of outer submodules of the budding yeast kinetochore is strongly influenced by factors at the kinetochore-microtubule interface, including Fin1, Dam1, and microtubule tracking. Outer kinetochore stoichiometry is remarkably plastic and responsive to microtubule-proximal regulation.

Pcs1 and Mde4 are inner centromere proteins required to prevent merotelic kinetochore orientation

Project description:Chromosome segregation depends on proper attachment of sister kinetochores to microtubules. Merotelic kinetochore orientation is an error which occurs when a single kinetochore is attached to microtubules emanating form opposite poles. Mechanisms preventing or correcting the merotelic attachment must operate to avoid chromosome missegregation. Pcs1 has been implicated in preventing merotelic attachment in mitosis and meiosis II. We describe here the identification of Mde4 protein which forms a complex with the Pcs1. Both Mde4 and Pcs1 localize to the central core of the centromere. Similarly to the pcs1 mutant, in the absence of mde4 lagging chromosomes are frequently observed during mitosis and meiosis II . We provide the first evidence that the lagging chromosomes in pcs1 and mde4 mutants are due to merotelic kinetochore orientation. Keywords: ChIP-chip analysis ChIP-chip analysis: In all cases, hybridization data for ChIP fraction was compared with that of SUP (supernatant) fraction. Pombe whole chromosome array was used.

Regulation of Global Lysine Lactylation during HCMV Infection

Project description:Aerobic glycolysis is a hallmark of virus-infected cells, leading to substantial accumulation and secretion of lactate. However, the regulatory roles of lactate during viral infections are still poorly understood. Here, we report that human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection leverages lactate to induce widespread protein lactylation and promote viral spread. Lactyllysine decorates intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) of proteins, regulating viral protein condensates and immune signaling transduction. Dynamic lactylation of immune response pathways, a feature shared during infection with herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), suppresses immunity through regulation of RBM14 and IFI16. K90 lactylation of the viral DNA sensor IFI16 blocks recruitment of the DNA-damage response master kinase DNA-PK, preventing IFI16-driven gene repression and cytokine responses. Together, we characterize global protein lactylation dynamics during virus infection, finding virus-induced lactate contributes to its immune evasion through direct inhibition of immune signaling pathways.

Kinetochores coordinate pericentromeric cohesion and early DNA replication by Cdc7-Dbf4 kinase recruitment

Project description:Centromeres play several important roles in ensuring proper chromosome segregation. Not only do they promote kinetochore assembly for microtubule attachment, but they also support robust sister chromatid cohesion at pericentromeres and facilitate replication of centromeric DNA early in S phase. However, it is still elusive how centromeres orchestrate all these functions at the same site. Here we show that the budding yeast Dbf4-dependent kinase (DDK) accumulates at kinetochores in telophase, facilitated by the Ctf19 kinetochore complex. This promptly recruits Sld3-Sld7 replication initiator proteins to pericentromeric replication origins so that they initiate replication early in S phase. Furthermore DDK at kinetochores independently recruits the Scc2-Scc4 cohesin loader to centromeres in G1 phase. This enhances cohesin loading and facilitates robust pericentromeric cohesion in S phase. Thus, we have found the central mechanism by which kinetochores orchestrate early S phase DNA replication and robust sister chromatid cohesion at microtubule attachment sites. Measurement of genome replication time for various S. cerevisiae strains. For each strain two samples were analysed: a replicating sample (from S phase) and a non-replicating sample (from G2 phase).

Aurora A kinase phosphorylates Hec1 to regulate metaphase kinetochore-microtubule dynamics.

Project description:Precise regulation of kinetochore-microtubules is essential for successful chromosome segregation. Central to this regulation is Aurora B kinase, which phosphorylates kinetochore substrates to promote microtubule turnover. A critical target of Aurora B is the N-terminal “tail” domain of Hec1/NDC80, which is a component of the NDC80 complex, a force-transducing link between kinetochores and microtubules. While Aurora B is regarded as the “master regulator” of kinetochore-microtubule attachment, it is likely that other mitotic kinases contribute to Hec1phosphorylation. Here we show that Aurora A kinase phosphorylates the tail domain of Hec1 at Serine 69, a previously uncharacterized phosphorylation target site, and plays an important role in controlling kinetochore-microtubule attachment dynamics. Using phospho-specific antibodies, Hec1 phospho-deficient mutants, and kinase inhibitors, we demonstrate that Aurora A is required for the regulation of kinetochore-microtubule dynamics of metaphase chromosomes and identify Hec1 Serine 69 as a critical Aurora A substrate for this regulation. Additionally, we demonstrate that Aurora A kinase associates with INCENP during mitosis and that INCENP is competent to drive accumulation of the kinase to the centromere region of mitotic chromosomes. These findings reveal that both Aurora A and Aurora B contribute to kinetochore-microtubule attachment dynamics, and they uncover an unexpected role for Aurora A in mitosis.
