The mouse FT210 cell line is a temperature-sensitive cdc2 mutant. FT210 cells are found to arrest specifically in G2 phase and unlike many alleles of cdc2 and cdc28 mutants of yeasts, loss of p34cdc2 at the nonpermissive temperature has no apparent effect on cell cycle progression through the G1 and S phases of the division cycle. FT210 cells and the parent wild-type FM3A cell line each possess at least three distinct histone H1 kinases. H1 kinase activities in chromatography fractions were identified using a synthetic peptide substrate containing the consensus phosphorylation site of histone H1 and the kinase subunit compositions were determined immunochemically with antisera prepared against the "PSTAIR" peptide, the COOH-terminus of mammalian p34cdc2 and the human cyclins A and B1. The results show that p34cdc2 forms two separate complexes with cyclin A and with cyclin B1, both of which exhibit thermal lability at the non-permissive temperature in vitro and in vivo. A third H1 kinase with stable activity at the nonpermissive temperature is comprised of cyclin A and a cdc2-like 34-kD subunit, which is immunoreactive with anti-"PSTAIR" antiserum but is not recognized with antiserum specific for the COOH-terminus of p34cdc2. The cyclin A-associated kinases are active during S and G2 phases and earlier in the division cycle than the p34cdc2-cyclin B1 kinase. We show that mouse cells possess at least two cdc2-related gene products which form cell cycle regulated histone H1 kinases and we propose that the murine homolog of yeast p34cdc/CDC28 is essential only during the G2-to-M transition in FT210 cells.  相似文献

We cloned the hamster cdc25C cDNA by using the human cdc25C cDNA as a probe and prepared an antibody to Escherichia coli-produced hamster cdc25C protein that is specific to the human cdc25C protein. The microinjected antibody inhibited a chromosome condensation induced by tsBN2 mutation, indicating that the cdc25C protein is required for an activation of p34cdc2 kinase caused by loss of RCC1 function. The hamster cdc25C protein located in the cytoplasm, prominently in a periphery of the nuclei of cells arrested with hydroxyurea, and seemed to move into the nuclei by loss of RCC1 function. Also, we found a molecular shift of the cdc25C protein in cells showing premature chromosome condensation (PCC), in addition to normal mitotic cells. This molecular-shift appeared depending on an activation of p34cdc2 kinase.  相似文献

When BHK21 cells synchronized in early S phase were exposed to okadaic acid (OA), an inhibitor of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A, mitosis specific events such as premature chromosome condensation, the production of MPM-2 antigens, dispersion of nuclear lamins and the appearance of mitotic asters were induced, and then disappeared upon further incubation. These mitosis specific events occurred even in the presence of cycloheximide. Within 1 h of exposure to OA, cdc2/histone H1 kinase activity rose 10-fold compared with untreated controls, but returned to the control level upon further incubation. Using antibodies against either p34cdc2 or cyclin B it was found that p34cdc2 complexed with cyclin B was dephosphorylated after OA treatment concomitant with the activation of cdc2 kinase, and that cyclin B was subsequently degraded concomitant with a decrease in cdc2 kinase activity, as in normal mitosis. In contrast, when cells in G1 phase were treated with OA no increase in cdc2 kinase activity was observed. Moreover when cells in pseudo-metaphase induced by nocodazole were treated with OA, cdc2 kinase was inactivated. These results suggest that OA sensitive protein phosphatases control both the activation and inactivation of the p34cdc2 kinase.  相似文献

Mouse embryos of the ddY strain fertilized in vitro undergo the first cleavage to the 2-cell stage but not the second cleavage even 45 hr after insemination (2-cell block). We examined the phosphorylation state of p34cdc2 and histone H1 kinase activity in mouse 2-cell embryos to investigate the relationship of p34cdc2 with 2-cell block. In the first mitotic cell cycle, the amount of phosphorylated forms of p34cdc2, which were detected as the bands of retarded mobility on SDS-PAGE followed by immunoblotting with anti-p34cdc2 antibody, increased during interphase and abruptly decreased at M phase. Concomitant with this dephosphorylation, histone H1 kinase activity was increased. After the embryos cleaved to the 2-cell stage, the amounts of phosphorylated forms of p34cdc2 increased up to 33 hr after insemination. However, the activation of histone H1 kinase did not occur and the states of phosphorylation of p34cdc2 did not show any significant changes until 45 hr. In contrast, 2-cell embryos of B6C3F1 mice, which do not show a 2-cell block and develop normally to blastocysts in vitro, exhibit the dephosphorylation of p34cdc2 and an increase in histone H1 kinase activity between 31 and 45 hr after insemination. When the ddY mouse embryos arrested at the 2-cell stage were treated with okadaic acid, an inhibitor of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A, the dephosphorylation of p34cdc2 occurred and histone H1 kinase activity increased. The chromosomes of these embryos stained with 4',6'-diamidino-2-phenylindole revealed the initiation of condensation. These results suggest that 2-cell-blocked embryos contain enough p34cdc2 to induce mitotic events but the protein remains in a latent form.  相似文献

By incubating at 30°C in the presence of an energy source, p34cdc2/cyclin B was activated in the extract prepared from a temperature-sensitive mutant, tsBN2, which prematurely enters mitosis at 40°C, the nonpermissive temperature (Nishimoto, T., E. Eilen, and C. Basilico. 1978. Cell. 15:475–483), and wild-type cells of the hamster BHK21 cell line arrested in S phase, without protein synthesis. Such an in vitro activation of p34cdc2/cyclin B, however, did not occur in the extract prepared from cells pretreated with protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide, although this extract still retained the ability to inhibit p34cdc2/cyclin B activation. When tsBN2 cells arrested in S phase were incubated at 40°C in the presence of cycloheximide, Cdc25B, but not Cdc25A and C, among a family of dual-specificity phosphatases, Cdc25, was lost coincidentally with the lack of the activation of p34cdc2/cyclin B. Consistently, the immunodepletion of Cdc25B from the extract inhibited the activation of p34cdc2/cyclin B. Cdc25B was found to be unstable (half-life < 30 min). Cdc25B, but not Cdc25C, immunoprecipitated from the extract directly activated the p34cdc2/cyclin B of cycloheximide-treated cells as well as that of nontreated cells, although Cdc25C immunoprecipitated from the extract of mitotic cells activated the p34cdc2/cyclin B within the extract of cycloheximide-treated cells. Our data suggest that Cdc25B made an initial activation of p34cdc2/cyclin B, which initiates mitosis through the activation of Cdc25C.  相似文献

The mammalian homologue of the cdc2 gene of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe encodes a p34cdc2 cyclin-dependent kinase that regulates the cell cycle of a wide variety of cell types. Resting murine T lymphocytes contained no detectable p34cdc2 protein, histone kinase activity, or specific mRNA for the cdc2 gene. Activation of the T cells by immobilized anti-CD3 resulted in the expression of specific mRNA late in the G1 phase of the cell cycle, and p34cdc2 protein was detectable at or near G1/S. At this point in the cell cycle, the protein was phosphorylated at tyrosine and displayed no H1 histone kinase activity. As the cells progressed through the cycle, the amount of specific mRNA and p34cdc2 increased, and H1 histone kinase activity was detectable when the cells were blocked at G2/M by nocodazole. The activation of T cells by phorbol dibutyrate induced the expression of IL-2R but failed to induce the synthesis of IL-2 or the expression of cdc2-specific mRNA. Under these conditions, the activated cells failed to enter the S phase of the cell cycle. Because the presence of IL-2 added exogenously during activation by phorbol dibutyrate resulted in the expression of cdc2-specific mRNA and progression through the cell cycle, either IL-2 or the interaction with IL-2R may be involved in the expression of cdc2 and regulation of the G1/S transition.  相似文献

The Vpr accessory gene product of human immunodeficiency virus types 1 and 2 and simian immunodeficiency virus is believed to play a role in permitting entry of the viral core into the nucleus of nondividing cells. A second role for Vpr was recently suggested by Rogel et al. (M. E. Rogel, L. I. Wu, and M. Emerman, J. Virol. 69:882-888, 1995), who showed that Vpr prevents the establishment in vitro of chronically infected HIV producer cell lines, apparently by causing infected cells to arrest in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. In cycling cells, progression from G2 to M phase is driven by activation of the p34cdc2/cyclin B complex, an event caused, in part, by dephosphorylation of two regulatory amino acids of p34cdc2 (Thr-14 and Tyr-15). We show here that Vpr arrests the cell cycle in G2 by preventing the activation of the p34cdc2/cyclin B complex. Vpr expression in cells caused p34cdc2 to remain in the phosphorylated, inactive state, p34cdc2/cyclin B complexes immunoprecipitated from cells expressing Vpr were almost completely inactive in a histone H1 kinase assay. Coexpression of a constitutively active mutant p34cdc2 molecule with Vpr relieved the G2 arrest. These findings strongly suggest that Vpr arrests cells in G2 by preventing the activation of the p34cdc2/cyclin B complex that is required for entry into M phase. In vivo, Vpr might, by preventing p34cdc2 activation, delay or prevent apoptosis of infected cells. This would increase the amount of virus each infected cell produced.  相似文献

A universal intracellular factor, the 'M phase-promoting factor' (MPF), triggers the G2/M transition of the cell cycle in all organisms. In late G2, it is present as an inactive complex of tyrosine-phosphorylated p34cdc2 and unphosphorylated cyclin Bcdc13. In M phase, its activation as an active MPF displaying histone H1 kinase (H1K) originates from the concomitant tyrosine dephosphorylation of the p34cdc2 subunit and the phosphorylation of the cylin Bcdc13 subunit. We have investigated the role of cyclin in the formation of this complex and the tyrosine phosphorylation of p34cdc2, using highly synchronous mitotic sea urchin eggs as a model. As cells leave the S phase and enter the G2 phase, a massive tyrosine phosphorylation of p34cdc2 occurs. This large p34cdc2 tyrosine phosphorylation burst does not arise from a massive increase in p34cdc2 concentration. It even appears to affect only a fraction (non-immunoprecipitable by anti-PSTAIR antibodies) of the total p34cdc2 present in the cell. Several observations point to an extremely close association between accumulation of unphosphorylated cyclin and p34cdc2 tyrosine phosphorylation: (i) both events coincide perfectly during the G2 phase; (ii) both tyrosine-phosphorylated p34cdc2 and cyclin are not immunoprecipitated by anti-PSTAIR antibodies; (iii) accumulation of unphosphorylated cyclin by aphidicolin treatment of the cells, triggers a dramatic accumulation of tyrosine-phosphorylated p34cdc2; and (iv) inhibition of cyclin synthesis by emetine inhibits p34cdc2 tyrosine phosphorylation without affecting the p34cdc2 concentration. These results show that, as it is synthesized, cyclin B binds and recruits p34cdc2 for tyrosine phosphorylation; this inactive complex then requires the completion of DNA replication before it can be turned into fully active MPF. These results fully confirm recent data obtained in vitro with exogenous cyclin added to cycloheximide-treated Xenopus egg extracts.  相似文献

Tyrosine-phosphorylated p34cdc2 and cyclin B2 are present and physically associated in small growing stage IV oocytes (800 microns in diameter) of Xenopus laevis. Microinjection of M-phase promoting factor (MPF) into stage IV oocytes induces germinal vesicle breakdown and the activation of the kinase activity of the p34cdc2/cyclin B2 complex measured on p13suc1 beads. During the in vivo activation of MPF in stage IV oocytes, p34cdc2 tyrosine dephosphorylation is not detectable, in contrast to stage VI oocytes. Addition of cycloheximide in MPF-injected stage IV oocytes induces neither the inhibition of histone H1 kinase activity nor the cyclin B2 degradation. Therefore, the activation mechanism of histone H1 kinase in stage IV oocytes does not require detectable tyrosine dephosphorylation of p34cdc2. It is suggested rather that the tyrosine phosphorylation of p34cdc2 plays a role in inhibiting cyclin B2 degradation.  相似文献

p60 is a cellular protein that binds to the adenovirus E1A protein complex in virally infected or transformed human cells. In both infected and uninfected cells, p60 was found in a complex with the cdc2 protein kinase. Immune complexes containing p60 and cdc2 display a cell cycle-dependent histone H1 kinase activity that is most active in interphase. The previously described cdc2-p62/cyclin complex also acts as a histone H1 kinase but is maximally active in mitotic metaphase. The shift in the timing of activation of different cdc2-containing complexes suggests that each might play a distinct role in regulation of the cell cycle.  相似文献
