Kinetochore proteins contribute to the fidelity of chromosome transmission by mediating the attachment of a specialized chromosomal region, the centromere, to the mitotic spindle during mitosis. In budding yeast, a subset of kinetochore proteins, referred to as the outer kinetochore, provides a link between centromere DNA-binding proteins of the inner kinetochore and microtubule-binding proteins. Using a combination of chromatin immunoprecipitation, in vivo localization, and protein coimmunoprecipitation, we have established that yeast Chl4p and Iml3p are outer kinetochore proteins that localize to the kinetochore in a Ctf19p-dependent manner. Chl4p interacts with the outer kinetochore proteins Ctf19p and Ctf3p, and Iml3p interacts with Chl4p and Ctf19p. In addition, Chl4p is required for the Ctf19p-Ctf3p and Ctf19p-Iml3p interactions, indicating that Chl4p is an important structural component of the outer kinetochore. These physical interaction dependencies provide insights into the molecular architecture and centromere DNA loading requirements of the outer kinetochore complex. 相似文献

Cohesion between sister chromatids in eukaryotes is mediated by the evolutionarily conserved cohesin complex. Cohesin forms a proteinaceous ring, large enough to trap pairs of replicated sister chromatids. The circumference consists of the Smc1 and Smc3 subunits, while Scc1 is thought to close the ring by bridging the Smc (structural maintenance of chromosomes) ATPase head domains. Little is known about two additional subunits, Scc3 and Pds5, and about possible conformational changes of the complex during the cell cycle. We have employed fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) to analyse interactions within the cohesin complex in live budding yeast. These experiments reveal an unexpected geometry of Scc1 at the Smc heads, and suggest that Pds5 plays a role at the Smc hinge on the opposite side of the ring. Key subunit interactions, including close proximity of the two ATPase heads, are constitutive throughout the cell cycle. This depicts cohesin as a stable molecular machine undergoing only transient conformational changes during binding and dissociation from chromosomes. Using FRET, we did not observe interactions between more than one cohesin complex in vivo. 相似文献

The spindle-pole body (SPB), the yeast analog of the centrosome, serves as the major microtubule (MT) organizing center in the yeast cell. In addition to this central function, the SPB organizes and concentrates proteins required for proper coordination between the nuclear-division cycle and cytokinesis. For example, the Schizosaccharomyces pombe septation-initiation network (SIN), which is responsible for initiating actomyosin ring constriction and septation, is assembled at the SPB through its two scaffolding components, Sid4 and Cdc11. In an effort to identify novel SIN interactors, we purified Cdc11 and identified by mass spectrometry a previously uncharacterized protein associated with it, Ppc89. Ppc89 localizes constitutively to the SPB and interacts directly with Sid4. A fusion between the N-terminal 300 amino acids of Sid4 and a SPB targeting domain of Ppc89 supplies the essential function of Sid4 in anchoring the SIN. ppc89Delta cells are inviable and exhibit defects in SPB integrity, and hence in spindle formation, chromosome segregation, and SIN localization. Ppc89 overproduction is lethal, resulting primarily in a G2 arrest accompanied by massive enlargement of the SPB and increased SPB MT nucleation. These results suggest a fundamental role for Ppc89 in organization of the S. pombe SPB. 相似文献

Ophioglossum petiolatum . Unlike Angiopteris (Marattiales), which is monoplastidic, Ophioglossum undergoes polyplastidic meiosis like members of the fern-seed plant clade. The meiotic spindle is distinctly multipolar in
origin and is consolidated into a bipolar spindle that is variously twisted and curved to accommodate the large number of
chromosomes. Although a phragmoplast forms after first meiosis, no wall is deposited. Instead, an organelle band consisting
of intermingled plastids and mitochondria is formed in the equatorial region between the dyad domains. Following second meiosis,
a complex of phragmoplasts forms among sister and non-sister nuclei. Cell plates are deposited first between sister nuclei
and then in the region of the organelle band resulting in a tetrad of spores each with a equal allotment of organelles.

A flux analysis of glucose metabolism in the filamentous fungus Rhizopus oryzae was achieved using a specific radioactivity curve-matching program, TFLUX. Glycolytic and tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates labeled through the addition of extracellular [U-14C]glucose were isolated and purified for specific radioactivity determinations. This information, together with pool sizes and the rates of glucose utilization and end product production, provided input for flux maps of the metabolic network under two different experimental conditions. Based upon the flux analysis of this system, a mutant of R. oryzae with higher lactate and lower ethanol yields than the parent was sought for and found. 相似文献

Increasing atmospheric CO2 concentration and related climate change have stimulated much interest in the potential of soils to sequester carbon. In ‘The Jena Experiment’, a managed grassland experiment on a former agricultural field, we investigated the link between plant diversity and soil carbon storage. The biodiversity gradient ranged from one to 60 species belonging to four functional groups. Stratified soil samples were taken to 30 cm depth from 86 plots in 2002, 2004 and 2006, and organic carbon contents were determined. Soil organic carbon stocks in 0–30 cm decreased from 7.3 kg C m?2 in 2002 to 6.9 kg C m?2 in 2004, but had recovered to 7.8 kg C m?2 by 2006. During the first 2 years, carbon storage was limited to the top 5 cm of soil while below 10 cm depth, carbon was lost probably as short‐term effect of the land use change. After 4 years, carbon stocks significantly increased within the top 20 cm. More importantly, carbon storage significantly increased with sown species richness (log‐transformed) in all depth segments and even carbon losses were significantly smaller with higher species richness. Although increasing species diversity increased root biomass production, statistical analyses revealed that species diversity per se was more important than biomass production for changes in soil carbon. Below 20 cm depth, the presence of one functional group, tall herbs, significantly reduced carbon losses in the beginning of the experiment. Our analysis indicates that plant species richness and certain plant functional traits accelerate the build‐up of new carbon pools within 4 years. Additionally, higher plant diversity mitigated soil carbon losses in deeper horizons. This suggests that higher biodiversity might lead to higher soil carbon sequestration in the long‐term and therefore the conservation of biodiversity might play a role in greenhouse gas mitigation. 相似文献

We studied the effects of tempol, an oxygen radical scavenger, on hydrosaline balance in rats with acute sodium overload. Male rats with free access to water were injected with isotonic (control group) or hypertonic saline solution (0.80 mol/l NaCl) either alone (Na group) or with tempol (Na-T group). Hydrosaline balance was determined during a 90 min experimental period. Protein expressions of aquaporin 1 (AQP1), aquaporin 2 (AQP2), angiotensin II (Ang II) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) were measured in renal tissue. Water intake, creatinine clearance, diuresis and natriuresis increased in the Na group. Under conditions of sodium overload, tempol increased plasma sodium and protein levels and increased diuresis, natriuresis and sodium excretion. Tempol also decreased water intake without affecting creatinine clearance. AQP1 and eNOS were increased and Ang II decreased in the renal cortex of the Na group, whereas AQP2 was increased in the renal medulla. Nonglycosylated AQP1 and eNOS were increased further in the renal cortex of the Na-T group, whereas AQP2 was decreased in the renal medulla and was localized mainly in the cell membrane. Moreover, p47-phox immunostaining was increased in the hypothalamus of Na group, and this increase was prevented by tempol. Our findings suggest that tempol causes hypernatremia after acute sodium overload by inhibiting the thirst mechanism and facilitating diuresis, despite increasing renal eNOS expression and natriuresis. 相似文献

Angiopteris (Marattiales) undergoes the more primitive form of monoplastidic meiosis, while other ferns have evolved the polyplastidic
type typical of seed plants. In monoplastidic cell division, the single plastid divides and serves as site of the microtubule
organizing center (MTOC) for spindle formation resulting in coordinated division of plastid, nucleus, and cytoplasm. In plants
with polyplastidic cell division, the MTOC is diffuse and generally perinuclear. Monoplastidic cell division is seen as a
plesiomorphic feature that was inherited from algal ancestors containing a single plastid and modified through evolution.
Monoplastidic meiosis occurs in all groups of bryophytes (although in only a few hepatics), Isoetes, Selaginella, certain generic segregates of Lycopodium, and in members of the Marattiales. It is not known to occur in psilophytes, Equisetum, leptosporangiate ferns, or seed plants.
