The presence of a form of cyclin A2 with an N-terminal truncation has recently been reported in various murine cell lines and tissues. The truncated cyclin A2 binds to and activates the cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2). However, CDK2 bound by the truncated cyclin A2 is located in the cytoplasm in contrast to CDK2 bound to full-length cyclin A2, which is in the nucleus. Here, we show that proliferating mouse embryonic stem cells (ES cells) contain very little truncated cyclin A2 but as the cells are induced to differentiate the amount of truncated cyclin A2 increases. The expression pattern of truncated cyclin A2 was the same in p27(Kip1) -/- differentiating ES cells as in the differentiating wild-type cells. We conclude that p27(Kip1) is not necessary for the proteolytic cleavage that gives rise to the truncated form of cyclin A2 in differentiating ES cells and that this post-translational modification is not a function of the cell density but is correlated with differentiation. 相似文献

In this report, we present novel findings that implicate CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBPalpha) in regulating the expression and activity of calpain 3 in vivo and data showing a new physiological substrate for calpain 3, cyclin A. Our results demonstrate that cleavage of cyclin A by calpain 3 occurs in mouse and human myeloid precursor cells. Calpain 3 cleaves cyclin A in vitro and in vivo, resulting in the production of a truncated product that lacks the N-terminal destruction box required for its degradation at the end of mitosis. The cleaved form of cyclin A retains the cyclin-dependent kinase (cdk) binding domain and forms active complexes with cdk2. Calpain 3-mediated cleavage of cyclin A is lacking in C/EBPalpha-/- mice, which are not able to produce mature granulocytes. Our data support a model in which calpain 3-mediated cleavage of cyclin A in dividing myeloid progenitor cells is important for the onset of differentiation. Deficits in this pathway in C/EBPalpha-/- mice might contribute to the failure of these mice to produce mature granulocytes. These data reveal a new pathway involving tightly controlled post-translational processing of cyclin A during differentiation of granulocytes. 相似文献

Membrane-type-1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) has transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains, which target it to invasive fronts. We analyzed the role of the cytoplasmic tail by expressing wild type MT1-MMP and three mutants with progressively truncated C termini in human Bowes melanoma cells. We examined gelatinase A activation and the localization and processing of recombinant proteins in stable cell clones using gelatin zymography, immunoblotting, and immunofluorescence. Cell invasion was analyzed in vitro by Matrigel invasion assays. Gelatinase A was activated in all cell clones. However, the localization of MT1-MMP to the leading edge of migrating cells and cell invasion through Matrigel were strongly enhanced only in cells expressing either wild type or truncated MT1-MMP lacking 6 C-terminal amino acid residues (Delta577). Truncations of 10 or 16 amino acid residues in the cytoplasmic domain (Delta567 and Delta573, respectively) disturbed MT1-MMP localization. The expression of wild type and Delta577 MT1-MMPs induced also their cleavage to 43-kDa cell surface forms and the release of soluble, approximately 20-kDa N-terminal fragments containing the catalytic center. A synthetic MMP inhibitor but not a gelatinase inhibitor prevented the processing, suggesting that autocatalytic cleavage occurs. Purified soluble MT1-MMP was also autoproteolytically processed to 43- and 20-kDa forms in vitro. Our results indicate that the cytoplasmic domain has an important role in cell invasion by controlling both the targeting and degradation/turnover of MT1-MMP. 相似文献

Protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) is an important modulator of insulin signaling, cell proliferation, and survival. Using small interfering RNA duplexes in nontransformed mammalian cells, we show that only Akt1 is essential for cell proliferation, while Akt2 promotes cell cycle exit. Silencing Akt1 resulted in decreased cyclin A levels and inhibition of S-phase entry, effects not seen with Akt2 knockdown and specifically rescued by microinjection of Akt1, not Akt2. In differentiating myoblasts, Akt2 knockout prevented myoblasts from exiting the cell cycle and showed sustained cyclin A expression. In contrast, overexpression of Akt2 reduced cyclin A and hindered cell cycle progression in M-G1 with increased nuclear p21. p21 is a major target in the differential effects of Akt isoforms, with endogenous Akt2 and not Akt1 binding p21 in the nucleus and increasing its level. Accordingly, Akt2 knockdown cells, and not Akt1 knockdown cells, showed reduced levels of p21. A specific Akt2/p21 interaction can be reproduced in vitro, and the Akt2 binding site on p21 is similar to that in cyclin A spanning T145 to T155, since (i) prior incubation with cyclin A prevents Akt2 binding, (ii) T145 phosphorylation on p21 by Akt1 prevents Akt2 binding, and (iii) binding Akt2 prevents phosphorylation of p21 by Akt1. These data show that specific interaction of the Akt2 isoform with p21 is key to its negative effect on normal cell cycle progression. 相似文献

Progression through mitosis requires the inactivation of the protein kinase activity of the p34cdc2-cyclin complex by a mechanism involving the degradation of cyclin. We have examined the stability in Xenopus egg extracts of radiolabeled Xenopus or sea urchin B-type cyclins synthesized in reticulocyte lysates. Xenopus cyclin B2 and sea urchin cyclin B were stable in metaphase extracts from unfertilized eggs but were specifically degraded following addition of Ca2+ to the extracts. The degradation of either cyclin was inhibited by the addition of an excess of unlabeled Xenopus cyclin B2 but not by the addition of a number of control proteins. A truncated protein containing only the amino terminus of Xenopus cyclin B2, including sequences known to be essential for cyclin degradation in other species, also inhibited cyclin degradation, even though the truncated protein was stable in extracts following Ca2+ addition. The addition of the truncated protein did not stimulate histone H1 kinase activity in extracts but prevented the loss of H1 kinase activity that normally follows Ca2+ addition to metaphase extracts. When the amino-terminal fragment was added to extracts capable of several cell cycles in vitro, progression through the first mitosis was inhibited and elevated histone H1 kinase activity was maintained. These results indicate that although the amino terminus of cyclin does not contain all of the information necessary for cyclin destruction, it is capable of interacting with components of the cyclin destruction pathway and thereby preventing the degradation of full-length cyclins. 相似文献

p27(Kip1) is an important effector of G(1) arrest by transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta). Investigations in a human mammary epithelial cell (HMEC) model, including cells that are sensitive (184(S)) and resistant (184A1L5(R)) to G(1) arrest by TGF-beta, revealed aberrant p27 regulation in the resistant cells. Cyclin E1-cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (cdk2) and cyclin A-cdk2 activities were increased, and p27-associated kinase activity was detected in 184A1L5(R) cells. p27 from 184A1L5(R) cells was localized to both nucleus and cytoplasm, showed an altered profile of phosphoisoforms, and had a reduced ability to bind and inhibit cyclin E1-cdk2 in vitro when compared to p27 from the sensitive 184(S) cells. In proliferating 184A1L5(R) cells, more p27 was associated with cyclin D1-cdk4 complexes than in 184(S). While TGF-beta inhibited the formation of cyclin D1-cdk4-p27 complexes in 184(S) cells, it did not inhibit the assembly of cyclin D1-cdk4-p27 complexes in the resistant 184A1L5(R) cells. p27 phosphorylation changed during cell cycle progression, with cyclin E1-bound p27 in G(0) showing a different phosphorylation pattern from that of cyclin D1-bound p27 in mid-G(1). These data suggest a model in which TGF-beta modulates p27 phosphorylation from its cyclin D1-bound assembly phosphoform to an alternate form that binds tightly to inhibit cyclin E1-cdk2. Altered phosphorylation of p27 in the resistant 184A1L5(R) cells may favor the binding of p27 to cyclin D1-cdk4 and prevent its accumulation in cyclin E1-cdk2 in response to TGF-beta. 相似文献

Oocytes can synthesize and store maternal mRNA in an inactive translational state until the start of in vitro maturation. Cytoplasmic polyadenylation, driven by 3'-untranslated region (UTR) cis-acting cytoplasmic polyadenylation element (CPE), is associated with translational activation of cyclin B1 mRNA during maturation. The main aim of the present study was to investigate if bovine oocyte cyclin B1 mRNA undergoes cytoplasmic polyadenylation/translation during in vitro maturation, as in other species. We have found that cyclin B1 mRNA is present in two isoforms, consisting of the same open reading frame but with different 3'-UTR lengths. Only the longest isoform (cyclin B1L) has a putative CPE sequence and other regulatory sequences, and its mRNA level decreases during early embryo development. The polyadenylation state of cyclin B1L during in vitro maturation was studied. Results demonstrated that cyclin B1L bears a relatively long poly(A) tail in germinal vesicle-stage oocytes, which is further lengthened at 10 h of maturation, before metaphase I. Interestingly, cyclin B1L bears a short poly(A) tail when the ovaries and the oocytes are transported and manipulated on ice to stop the polyadenylation process. Cytoplasmic polyadenylation most probably occurs during ovary transport in warm saline, when oocytes are still in their follicular environment. Our results also show a link between cytoplasmic polyadenylation of cyclin B1 and translation/appearance of cyclin B1 protein before in vitro maturation. 相似文献

The temporal relationship between cyclin A accumulation and the onset of DNA replication was analyzed in detail. Five untransformed and nine transformed asynchronously growing cell cultures were investigated using a triple immunofluorescence staining protocol combined with computerized evaluation of staining intensities in individual cells. The simultaneous staining of BrdU, cyclin A, and cyclin E made it possible to determine the cell cycle position of each cell investigated. Cells at the G(1)/S border were identified on the basis of cyclin E content and were further analyzed with respect to cyclin A and BrdU content. A method was developed to calculate objective thresholds defining the highest staining intensity found in the negative cells in the population. Using the thresholds we could distinguish cells with minute amounts of cyclin A and BrdU from truly negative cells. We show that the onset of cyclin A accumulation and the start of DNA replication occurs at the same time, or deviating by a few minutes at the most. We also show that cyclin A accumulates continuously during S. This study clearly demonstrates that nuclear cyclin A can be used as a reliable marker for the S and G(2) phases in both normal and transformed interphase cells. 相似文献

Requirement for proliferating cell nuclear antigen expression during stages of the Chinese hamster ovary cell cycle 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16

Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA/cyclin) is a nuclear protein that can stimulate purified DNA polymerase delta in vitro, and its synthesis correlates with the proliferation rate of cells. We have attempted to determine whether synthesis of PCNA/cyclin in Chinese hamster ovary cells is necessary to regulate entry into S phase. We have measured cellular PCNA/cyclin concentration of the mRNA or protein throughout the cell cycle. Cells were separated by centrifugal elutriation into populations enriched for G-1, S, and G-2/M phases. Quantitative Northern hybridization analysis was performed on RNA isolated from each cell population by using a cDNA clone of PCNA/cyclin as a probe. Results demonstrated that although intact PCNA/cyclin mRNA is present during all phases of the cell cycle, an induction of about 3-fold occurs during S phase. Two-parameter staining for PCNA/cyclin and DNA, and analysis by flow cytometry, confirmed that the quantity of PCNA/cyclin protein in the cells increases severalfold in G-1 or early S phase but generally is invariant in S and G-2/M phases. This cell cycle dependence of PCNA/cyclin expression suggests that the observed synthesis is a prerequisite for initiation of DNA replication. Introduction of an antisense oligonucleotide complementary to the PCNA/cyclin mRNA to inhibit PCNA/cyclin synthesis effectively prevented entry of G-1 phase cells into S phase. A complementary sense oligonucleotide used as a control did not have an inhibitory effect. This result suggests that a threshold concentration of PCNA/cyclin is necessary for entry into S phase. 相似文献

A novel method employing filter arrays of a cDNA expression library for the identification of substrates for protein kinases was developed. With this technique, we identified a new member of the cyclin family, cyclin L2, as a substrate of the nuclear protein kinase DYRK1A. Cyclin L2 contains an N-terminal cyclin domain and a C-terminal arginine/serine-rich domain (RS domain), which is a hallmark of many proteins involved in pre-mRNA processing. The gene for cyclin L2 encodes the full-length cyclin L2, which is predominantly expressed in testis, as well as a truncated splicing variant (cyclin L2S) that lacks the RS domain and is ubiquitously expressed in human tissues. Full-length cyclin L2, but not cyclin L2S, was associated with the cyclin-dependent kinase PITSLRE. Cyclin L2 interacted with splicing factor 2 in vitro and was co-localized with the splicing factor SC35 in the nuclear speckle compartment. Photobleaching experiments showed that a fusion protein of green fluorescent protein and cyclin L2 in nuclear speckles rapidly exchanged with unbleached molecules in the nucleus, similar to other RS domain-containing proteins. In striking contrast, the closely related green fluorescent protein-cyclin L1 was immobile in the speckle compartment. DYRK1A interacted with cyclin L2 in pull-down assays, and overexpression of DYRK1A stimulated phosphorylation of cyclin L2 in COS-7 cells. These data characterize cyclin L2 as a highly mobile component of nuclear speckles and suggest that DYRK1A may regulate splicing by phosphorylation of cyclin L2. 相似文献
