CEP215 is a human orthologue of Drosophila centrosomin which is a core centrosome component for the pericentriolar matrix protein recruitment. Recent investigations revealed that CEP215 is required for centrosome cohesion, centrosomal attachment of the g-TuRC, and microtubule dynamics. However, it remains to be obscure how CEP215 functions for recruitment of the centrosomal proteins during the centrosome cycle. Here, we investigated a role of CEP215 during mitosis. Knockdown of CEP215 resulted in characteristic mitotic phenotypes, including monopolar spindle formation, a decrease in distance between the spindle pole pair, and detachment of the centrosomes from the spindle poles. We noticed that CEP215 is critical for centrosomal localization of dynein throughout the cell cycle. As a consequence, the selective centrosomal proteins were not recruited to the centrosome properly. Finally, the centrosomal localization of CEP215 also depends on the dynein-dynactin complex. Based on the results, we propose that CEP215 regulates a dynein-dependent transport of the pericentriolar matrix proteins during the centrosome maturation. 相似文献

Centrosome size varies considerably during the cell cycle; it is greatest during metaphase, partly because of pericentriolar matrix recruitment and an increase in microtubule-organizing activity. However, the mechanism of centrosome maturation during M phase is poorly defined. In the present study, we identified and quantified centrosomal proteins during S and M phases using stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) coupled with liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS). We identified 991 proteins, of which 310 and 325 proteins were upregulated during S and M phases, respectively. Ubiquitinated proteins containing K48- and K63-linked polyubiquitin chains accumulated in the centrosomes during M phase, although 26S proteasome activity in the centrosomes did not markedly differ between S and M phases. Conversely, cytoplasmic dynein, which transports ubiquitinated proteins to the centrosomes, increased 2-fold in the centrosomes during M phase relative to S phase. Furthermore, PYR-41, a ubiquitin E1 inhibitor, reduced centrosome size during metaphase, causing increased aneuploidy. RNA interference suppression of Ecm29, which inhibits proteasome activity, decreased the accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins in the centrosomes. These results show that accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins promotes centrosome maturation during M phase and further suggest a novel function of centrosomes as a scaffold temporarily gathering intracellular ubiquitinated proteins. 相似文献

The formation of the pericentriolar matrix (PCM) and a fully functional centrosome in syncytial Drosophila melanogaster embryos requires the rapid transport of Cnn during initiation of the centrosome replication cycle. We show a Cnn and Polo kinase interaction is apparently required during embryogenesis and involves the exon 1A-initiating coding exon, suggesting a subset of Cnn splice variants is regulated by Polo kinase. During PCM formation exon 1A Cnn-Long Form proteins likely bind Polo kinase before phosphorylation by Polo for Cnn transport to the centrosome. Loss of either of these interactions in a portion of the total Cnn protein pool is sufficient to remove native Cnn from the pool, thereby altering the normal localization dynamics of Cnn to the PCM. Additionally, Cnn-Short Form proteins are required for polar body formation, a process known to require Polo kinase after the completion of meiosis. Exon 1A Cnn-LF and Cnn-SF proteins, in conjunction with Polo kinase, are required at the completion of meiosis and for the formation of functional centrosomes during early embryogenesis. 相似文献

Regulation of centrosome structure, duplication and segregation is integrated into cellular pathways that control cell cycle progression and growth. As part of these pathways, numerous proteins with well‐established non‐centrosomal localization and function associate with the centrosome to fulfill regulatory functions. In turn, classical centrosomal components take up functional and structural roles as part of other cellular organelles and compartments. Thus, although a comprehensive inventory of centrosome components is missing, emerging evidence indicates that its molecular composition reflects the complexity of its functions. We analysed the Drosophila embryonic centrosomal proteome using immunoisolation in combination with mass spectrometry. The 251 identified components were functionally characterized by RNA interference. Among those, a core group of 11 proteins was critical for centrosome structure maintenance. Depletion of any of these proteins in Drosophila SL2 cells resulted in centrosome disintegration, revealing a molecular dependency of centrosome structure on components of the protein translation machinery, actin‐ and RNA‐binding proteins. In total, we assigned novel centrosome‐related functions to 24 proteins and confirmed 13 of these in human cells. 相似文献

A procedure adapted from that described by Mitchison and Kirschner [Nature 312:232-237, 1984] was used to isolate centrosomes from human lymphoid cells. High yields of homogeneous centrosomes (60% of the theoretical total, assuming one centrosome per cell) were obtained. Centrosomes were isolated as pairs of centrioles, plus their associated pericentriolar material. Ultrastructural investigation revealed: 1) a link between both centrioles in a centrosome formed by the gathering in of a unique bundle of thin filaments surrounding each centriole; 2) a stereotypic organization of the pericentriolar material, including a rim of constant width at the proximal end of each centriole and a disc of nine satellite arms organized according to a ninefold symmetry at the distal end and; 3) an axial hub in the lumen of each centriole at the distal end surrounded by some ill-defined material. The total protein content was 2 to 3 X 10(-2) pg per isolated centrosome, a figure that suggests that the preparations were close to homogeneity. The protein composition was complex but specific, showing proteins ranging from 180 to 300 kD, one prominent band at 130 kD, and a group of proteins between 50 and 65 kD. Actin was also present in centrosome preparations. Functional studies demonstrated that the isolated centrosomes were competent to nucleate microtubules in vitro from purified tubulin in conditions in which spontaneous assembly could not occur. They were also very effective at inducing cleavage when microinjected into unfertilized Xenopus eggs. 相似文献

Centrosome reduction during gametogenesis and its significance 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Animal spermatids and primary oocytes initially have typical centrosomes comprising pairs of centrioles and pericentriolar fibrous centrosomal proteins. These somatic cell-like centrosomes are partially or completely degenerated during gametogenesis. Centrosome reduction during spermiogenesis comprises attenuation of microtubule nucleation function, loss of pericentriolar material, and centriole degeneration. Centrosome reduction during oogenesis is due to complete degeneration of centrioles, which leads to dispersal of the pericentriolar centrosomal proteins, loss of replicating capacity of the spindle poles, and switching to acentrosomal mode of spindle organization. Oocyte centrosome reduction plays an important role in preventing parthenogenetic embryogenesis and balancing centrosome number in the embryonic cells. 相似文献

Centrosomes are the major microtubule-organizing centers of mammalian cells. They are composed of a centriole pair and surrounding microtubule-nucleating material termed pericentriolar material (PCM). Bipolar mitotic spindle assembly relies on two intertwined processes: centriole duplication and centrosome maturation. In the first process, the single interphase centrosome duplicates in a tightly regulated manner so that two centrosomes are present in mitosis. In the second process, the two centrosomes increase in size and microtubule nucleation capacity through PCM recruitment, a process referred to as centrosome maturation. Failure to properly orchestrate centrosome duplication and maturation is inevitably linked to spindle defects, which can result in aneuploidy and promote cancer progression. It has been proposed that centriole assembly during duplication relies on both PCM and centriole proteins, raising the possibility that centriole duplication depends on PCM recruitment. In support of this model, C. elegans SPD-2 and mammalian NEDD-1 (GCP-WD) are key regulators of both these processes. SPD-2 protein sequence homologs have been identified in flies, mice, and humans, but their roles in centrosome biogenesis until now have remained unclear. Here, we show that Cep192, the human homolog of C. elegans and D. melanogaster SPD-2, is a major regulator of PCM recruitment, centrosome maturation, and centriole duplication in mammalian cells. We propose a model in which Cep192 and Pericentrin are mutually dependent for their localization to mitotic centrosomes during centrosome maturation. Both proteins are then required for NEDD-1 recruitment and the subsequent assembly of gamma-TuRCs and other factors into fully functional centrosomes. 相似文献

Highly enriched preparations of centrosomes from human T-lymphoblasts KE 37 were analyzed for their protein content. The specific pattern of polypeptides was characterized by an abundant subset of high mol. wt proteins and a major group of proteins with mol. wt ranging from 50 to 65 kd. Several immunoreactive proteins were identified, using a rabbit serum spontaneously reacting with human centrosomes. They include a family of high mol. wt ranging from 180 to 250 kd, a 130-kd protein and a 60-65 kd doublet. These antigens have the following properties: they are localized within the pericentriolar material; their abundance, as judged by centrosome labelling, changes significantly during the cell cycle, the maximum being observed at the pole of the metaphasic spindle; in Taxol-treated cells where the centrosome is no longer acting as a nucleating center, they redistribute at one end of the microtubule arrays in both mitotic and interphasic cells, as expected for nucleating, or capping, proteins. All these properties are compatible with their involvement in microtubule nucleation. 相似文献

Centrosomes consist of a pair of barrel-shaped microtubule assemblies called centrioles, surrounded by a pericentriolar matrix. The only well-characterized function of centrosomes is to organize both interphase microtubule arrays responsible for cell polarity and the mitotic spindle, which mediates the strictly bipolar separation of chromosomes. In addition to these established functions it has been speculated that centrosomes might be involved in several different cell cycle regulatory events like entry into mitosis, cytokinesis, G1/S transition and monitoring of DNA damage. These assumptions are mainly based on a rapidly growing list of centrosome-associated regulatory proteins such as p53, Brca1, Chk1, Chk2, TopBP1, Aurora-A, Plk1, cyclin B1, and Cdk1. However, only very few direct links between their localization to the centrosome and specific cellular functions have been unraveled until recently. This review will focus on recent advances in the understanding of the role of centrosomes as integrators of positive and negative pathways for mitotic entry. 相似文献

Primordial germ cells (PGCs) are the precursors to the adult germline stem cells that are set aside early during embryogenesis and specified through the inheritance of the germ plasm, which contains the mRNAs and proteins that function as the germline fate determinants. In Drosophila melanogaster, formation of the PGCs requires the microtubule and actin cytoskeletal networks to actively segregate the germ plasm from the soma and physically construct the pole buds (PBs) that protrude from the posterior cortex. Of emerging importance is the central role of centrosomes in the coordination of microtubule dynamics and actin organization to promote PGC development. We previously identified a requirement for the centrosome protein Centrosomin (Cnn) in PGC formation. Cnn interacts directly with Pericentrin‐like protein (PLP) to form a centrosome scaffold structure required for pericentriolar material recruitment and organization. In this study, we identify a role for PLP at several discrete steps during PGC development. We find PLP functions in segregating the germ plasm from the soma by regulating microtubule organization and centrosome separation. These activities further contribute to promoting PB protrusion and facilitating the distribution of germ plasm in proliferating PGCs. 相似文献

The centrosome is the main microtubule (MT)-organizing centre of animal cells. It consists of two centrioles and a multi-layered proteinaceous structure that surrounds the centrioles, the so-called pericentriolar material. Centrosomes promote de novo assembly of MTs and thus play important roles in Golgi organization, cell polarity, cell motility and the organization of the mitotic spindle. To execute these functions, centrosomes have to adopt particular cellular positions. Actin and MT networks and the association of the centrosomes to the nuclear envelope define the correct positioning of the centrosomes. Another important feature of centrosomes is the centrosomal linker that connects the two centrosomes. The centrosome linker assembles in late mitosis/G1 simultaneously with centriole disengagement and is dissolved before or at the beginning of mitosis. Linker dissolution is important for mitotic spindle formation, and its cell cycle timing has profound influences on the execution of mitosis and proficiency of chromosome segregation. In this review, we will focus on the mechanisms of centrosome positioning and separation, and describe their functions and mechanisms in the light of recent findings. 相似文献

Centrosomes are microtubule-organizing centers and play a dominant role in assembly of the microtubule spindle apparatus at mitosis. Although the individual binding steps in centrosome maturation are largely unknown, Centrosomin (Cnn) is an essential mitotic centrosome component required for assembly of all other known pericentriolar matrix (PCM) proteins to achieve microtubule-organizing activity at mitosis in Drosophila. We have identified a conserved motif (Motif 1) near the amino terminus of Cnn that is essential for its function in vivo. Cnn Motif 1 is necessary for proper recruitment of gamma-tubulin, D-TACC (the homolog of vertebrate transforming acidic coiled-coil proteins [TACC]), and Minispindles (Msps) to embryonic centrosomes but is not required for assembly of other centrosome components including Aurora A kinase and CP60. Centrosome separation and centrosomal satellite formation are severely disrupted in Cnn Motif 1 mutant embryos. However, actin organization into pseudocleavage furrows, though aberrant, remains partially intact. These data show that Motif 1 is necessary for some but not all of the activities conferred on centrosome function by intact Cnn. 相似文献

Loss of the tumor suppressor PTEN is observed in many human cancers that display increased chromosome instability and aneuploidy. The subcellular fractions of PTEN are associated with different functions that regulate cell growth, invasion and chromosome stability. In this study, we show a novel role for PTEN in regulating mitotic centrosomes. PTEN localization at mitotic centrosomes peaks between prophase and metaphase, paralleling the centrosomal localization of PLK-1 and γ-tubulin and coinciding with the time frame of centrosome maturation. In primary keratinocytes, knockdown of PTEN increased whole-cell levels of γ-tubulin and PLK-1 in an Akt-dependent manner and had little effect on recruitment of either protein to mitotic centrosomes. Conversely, knockdown of PTEN reduced centrosomal levels of pericentrin in an Akt-independent manner. Inhibition of Akt activation with MK2206 reduced the whole-cell and centrosome levels of PLK-1 and γ-tubulin and also prevented the recruitment of PTEN to mitotic centrosomes. This reduction in centrosome-associated proteins upon inhibition of Akt activity may contribute to the increase in defects in centrosome number and separation observed in metaphase cells. Concomitant PTEN knockdown and Akt inhibition reduced the frequency of metaphase cells with centrosome defects when compared with MK2206 treatment alone, indicating that both PTEN and pAkt are required to properly regulate centrosome composition during mitosis. The findings presented in this study demonstrate a novel role for PTEN and Akt in controlling centrosome composition and integrity during mitosis and provide insight into how PTEN functions as a multifaceted tumor suppressor. 相似文献

Dynamin 2 (Dyn2) is a large GTPase involved in vesicle formation and actin reorganization. In this study, we report a novel role for Dyn2 as a component of the centrosome that is involved in centrosome cohesion. By light microscopy, Dyn2 localized aside centrin and colocalized with gamma-tubulin at the centrosome; by immunoelectron microscopy, however, Dyn2 was detected in the pericentriolar material as well as on centrioles. Exogenously expressed green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged Dyn2 also localized to the centrosome, whereas glutathione S-transferase (GST)-tagged Dyn2 pulled down a protein complex(es) containing actin, alpha-tubulin and gamma-tubulin from liver homogenate. Furthermore, gel overlay and immunoprecipitation indicated a direct interaction between gamma-tubulin and a 219-amino-acid middle domain of Dyn2. Reduction of Dyn2 protein levels with small-interfering RNA (siRNA) resulted in centrosome splitting, whereas microtubule nucleation from centrosomes was not affected, suggesting a role for Dyn2 in centrosome cohesion. Finally, fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) analysis of a GFP-tagged Dyn2 middle domain indicated that Dyn2 is a dynamic exchangeable component of the centrosome. These findings suggest a novel function for Dyn2 as a participant in centrosome cohesion. 相似文献

Tight regulation of centrosome duplication is critical to ensure that centrosome number doubles once and only once per cell cycle. Superimposed onto this centrosome duplication cycle is a functional centrosome cycle in which they alternate between phases of quiescence and robust microtubule (MT) nucleation and MT-anchoring activities. In vertebrate cycling cells, interphase centrioles accumulate less pericentriolar material (PCM), reducing their MT nucleation capacity. In mitosis, centrosomes mature, accumulating more PCM to increase their nucleation and anchoring capacities to form robust MT asters. Interestingly, functional cycles of centrosomes can be altered to suit the cell's needs. Some interphase centrosomes function as a microtubule-organizing center by increasing their ability to anchor MTs to form centrosomal radial arrays. Other interphase centrosomes maintain their MT nucleation capacity but reduce/eliminate their MT-anchoring capacity. Recent work demonstrates that Drosophila cells take this to the extreme, whereby centrioles lose all detectable PCM during interphase, offering an explanation as to how centrosome-deficient flies develop to adulthood. Drosophila stem cells further modify the functional cycle by differentially regulating their two centrioles – a situation that seems important for stem cell asymmetric divisions, as misregulation of centrosome duplication in stem/progenitor cells can promote tumor formation. Here, we review recent findings that describe variations in the functional cycle of centrosomes. 相似文献

As cells enter mitosis, centrosomes dramatically increase in size and ability to nucleate microtubules. This process, termed centrosome maturation, is driven by the accumulation and activation of gamma-tubulin and other proteins that form the pericentriolar material on centrosomes during G2/prophase. Here, we show that the human centrosomal protein, Cep192 (centrosomal protein of 192 kDa), is an essential component of the maturation machinery. Specifically, we have found that siRNA depletion of Cep192 results in a complete loss of functional centrosomes in mitotic but not interphase cells. In mitotic cells lacking Cep192, microtubules become organized around chromosomes but rarely acquire stable bipolar configurations. These cells contain normal numbers of centrioles but cannot assemble gamma-tubulin, pericentrin, or other pericentriolar proteins into an organized PCM. Alternatively, overexpression of Cep192 results in the formation of multiple, extracentriolar foci of gamma-tubulin and pericentrin. Together, our findings support the hypothesis that Cep192 stimulates the formation of the scaffolding upon which gamma-tubulin ring complexes and other proteins involved in microtubule nucleation and spindle assembly become functional during mitosis. 相似文献

Nucleophosmin (NPM)/B23 is a multifunctional protein, involving in a wide variety of basic cellular processes, including ribosome assembly, DNA duplication, nucleocytoplasmic trafficking, and centrosome duplication. It has previously been shown that NPM/B23 localizes to centrosomes, and dissociate from centrosomes upon phosphorylation by Cdk2/cyclin E. However, detail characterization of centrosomal association of NPM/B23 has been hampered by the lack of appropriate antibodies that efficiently detects centrosomally localized NPM/B23, as well as by apparent loss of natural behavior of NPM/B23 when tagged with fluorescent proteins. Here, by the use of newly generated anti-NPM/B23 antibody, we conducted a careful analysis of centrosomal localization of NPM/B23. We found that NPM/B23 localizes between the paired centrioles of unduplicated centrosomes, suggesting the role of NPM/B23 in the centriole pairing. Upon initiation of centrosome duplication, some NPM/B23 proteins remain at mother centrioles of the parental centriole pairs. We further found that inhibition of Crm1 nuclear export receptor results in both accumulation of cyclin E at centrosomes and efficient dissociation of NPM/B23 from centrosomes. 相似文献

In mammalian cells, the centrosome consists of a pair of centrioles and amorphous pericentriolar material. The centrosome duplicates once per cell cycle. Polo like kinases (Plks) perform crucial functions in cell-cycle progression and during mitosis. The polo-like kinase-2, Plk2, is activated near the G1/S phase transition, and plays an important role in the reproduction of centrosomes. In this study, we show that the polo-box of Plk2 is required both for association to the centrosome and centriole duplication. Mutation of critical sites in the Plk2 polo-box prevents centrosomal localization and impairs centriole duplication. Plk2 is localized to centrosomes during early G1 phase where it only associates to the mother centriole and then distributes equally to both mother and daughter centrioles at the onset of S phase. Furthermore, our results imply that Plk2 mediated centriole duplication is dependent on Plk4 function. In addition, we find that siRNA-mediated down-regulation of Plk2 leads to the formation of abnormal mitotic spindles confirming that Plk2 may have a function in the reproduction of centrioles. 相似文献

Xenopus eggs are laid arrested at second metaphase of meiosis lacking a functional centrosome. Upon fertilization, the sperm provides the active centrosome that is required for cleavage to occur. The injection of purified centrosomes mimics fertilization and leads to tadpole formation (parthenogenesis). In this work we show that the parthenogenetic activity of centrosomes is inactivated by urea concentrations higher than 2 M. The loss of activity is correlated with a progressive destruction of the centriolar cylinder and extraction of proteins. This shows that centrosomes are relatively sensitive to urea since complete protein unfolding and solubilization of proteins normally occurs at urea concentrations as high as 8-10 M. When present, the parthenogenetic activity is always associated with a pelletable fraction showing that it cannot be solubilized by urea. The parthenogenetic activity is progressively inactivated by salt concentrations higher than 2 M (NaCl or KCl). However, only a few proteins are extracted by these treatments and the centrosome ultrastructure is not affected. This shows that both parthenogenetic activity and centrosomal structure are resistant to relatively high ionic strength. Indeed, most protein structures held by electrostatic forces are dissociated by 2 M salt. The loss of parthenogenetic activity produced at higher salt concentrations, while the structure of the centrosome is unaffected, is an apparent paradox. We interpret this result as meaning that the native state of centrosomes is held together by forces that favor functional denaturation by high ionic strength. The respective effects of urea and salts on centrosomal structure and activity suggest that the centrosome is mainly held together by hydrogen and hydrophobic bonds. The in vitro microtubule nucleating activity of centrosomes can be inactivated at salt or urea concentrations that do not affect the parthenogenetic activity. Since egg cleavage requires the formation of microtubule asters, we conclude that the extracted or denatured microtubule nucleating activity of centrosomes can be complemented by components present in the egg cytoplasm. Both parthenogenetic and microtubule nucleating activities are abolished by protease treatments but resist nuclease action. Since we find no RNA in centrosomes treated by RNase, they probably do not contain a protected RNA. Taken together, these results are consistent with the idea that the whole or part of the centrosome structure acts as a seed to start the centrosome duplication cycle in Xenopus eggs. 相似文献
