DNA damage induces cell cycle arrest (called the damage checkpoint), during which cells carry out actions for repair. A fission yeast protein, Crb2/Rhp9, which resembles budding yeast Rad9p and human BRCA1, promotes checkpoint by activating Chk1 kinase, which restrains Cdc2 activation. We show here that phosphorylation of the T215 Cdc2 site of Crb2 is required for reentering the cell cycle after the damage-induced checkpoint arrest. If this site is nonphosphorylatable, irradiated cells remain arrested, though damage is repaired, and maintain the phosphorylated state of Chk1 kinase. The T215 site is in vitro phosphorylated by purified Cdc2 kinase. Phosphorylation of T215 occurs intensely in response to DNA damage at a late stage, suggesting an antagonistic role of Cdc2 phosphorylation toward checkpoint. 相似文献

The cellular response to DNA damage is mediated by evolutionarily conserved Ser/Thr kinases, phosphorylation of Cdc25 protein phosphatases, binding to 14-3-3 proteins, and exit from the cell cycle. To investigate DNA damage responses mediated by the p38/stress-activated protein kinase (SAPK) axis of signaling, the optimal phosphorylation motifs of mammalian p38alpha SAPK and MAPKAP kinase-2 were determined. The optimal substrate motif for MAPKAP kinase-2, but not for p38 SAPK, closely matches the 14-3-3 binding site on Cdc25B/C. We show that MAPKAP kinase-2 is directly responsible for Cdc25B/C phosphorylation and 14-3-3 binding in vitro and in response to UV-induced DNA damage within mammalian cells. Downregulation of MAPKAP kinase-2 eliminates DNA damage-induced G2/M, G1, and intra S phase checkpoints. We propose that MAPKAP kinase-2 is a new member of the DNA damage checkpoint kinase family that functions in parallel with Chk1 and Chk2 to integrate DNA damage signaling responses and cell cycle arrest in mammalian cells. 相似文献

We have previously shown that the Ste20-like kinase SLK is a microtubule-associated protein that can regulate actin reorganization during cell adhesion and spreading (Wagner, S., Flood, T. A., O'Reilly, P., Hume, K., and Sabourin, L. A. (2002) J. Biol. Chem. 277, 37685-37692). Because of its association with the microtubule network, we investigated whether SLK plays a role in cell cycle progression, a process that requires microtubule dynamics during mitosis. Consistent with microtubule association in exponentially growing cells, our results showed that SLK co-localizes with the mitotic spindle in cells undergoing mitosis. Expression of a kinase-inactive mutant or SLK small interfering RNAs inhibited cell proliferation and resulted in an accumulation of quiescent cells stimulated to re-enter the cell cycle in the G2 phase. Cultures expressing the mutant SLK displayed a normal pattern of cyclin D, E, and B expression but failed to down-regulate cyclin A levels, suggesting that they cannot proceed through M phase. In addition, these cultures displayed low levels of both phospho-H3 and active p34/cdc2 kinase. Overexpression of active SLK resulted in ectopic spindle assembly and the induction of cell cycle re-entry of Xenopus oocytes, suggesting that SLK is required for progression through G2 upstream of H1 kinase activation. 相似文献

We isolated a mutant carrying a conditional mutation in the GLC7 gene, encoding the catalytic subunit of a type 1 protein phosphatase, by selection of suppressors that restored the growth defect of cdc24 mutants at high temperature and simultaneously conferred cold-sensitive growth. This cold sensitivity for growth is caused by a single mutation (glc7Y-170) at position 170 of the Glc7 protein, resulting in replacement of cysteine with tyrosine. Genetic analysis suggested that the glc7Y-170 allele is associated with a recessive negative phenotype, reducing the activity of Glc7 in the cell. The glc7Y-170 mutant missegregated chromosome III at the permissive temperature, arrested growth as large-budded cells at the restrictive temperature, exhibited a significant increase in the number of nuclei at or in the neck, and had a short spindle. Furthermore, the glc7Y-170 mutant exhibited a high level of CDC28-dependent protein kinase activity when incubated at the restrictive temperature. These findings suggest that the glc7Y-170 mutation is defective in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. Thus, type 1 protein phosphatase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is essential for the G2/M transition. 相似文献

Without ribosome biogenesis, translation of mRNA into protein ceases and cellular growth stops. We asked whether ribosome biogenesis is cell cycle regulated in the yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and we determined that it is not regulated in the same manner as in metazoan cells. We therefore turned our attention to cellular sensors that relay cell size information via ribosome biogenesis. Our results indicate that the small subunit (SSU) processome, a complex consisting of 40 proteins and the U3 small nucleolar RNA necessary for ribosome biogenesis, is not mitotically regulated. Furthermore, Nan1/Utp17, an SSU processome protein, does not provide a link between ribosome biogenesis and cell growth. However, when individual SSU processome proteins are depleted, cells arrest in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. This arrest was further supported by the lack of staining for proteins expressed in post-G1. Similarly, synchronized cells depleted of SSU processome proteins did not enter G2. This suggests that when ribosomes are no longer made, the cells stall in the G1. Therefore, yeast cells must grow to a critical size, which is dependent upon having a sufficient number of ribosomes during the G1 phase of the cell cycle, before cell division can occur. 相似文献

The DNA damage-dependent poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-2 (PARP-2) is, together with PARP-1, an active player of the base excision repair process, thus defining its key role in genome surveillance and protection. Telomeres are specialized DNA-protein structures that protect chromosome ends from being recognized and processed as DNA strand breaks. In mammals, telomere protection depends on the T(2)AG(3) repeat binding protein TRF2, which has been shown to remodel telomeres into large duplex loops (t-loops). In this work we show that PARP-2 physically binds to TRF2 with high affinity. The association of both proteins requires the N-terminal domain of PARP-2 and the myb domain of TRF2. Both partners colocalize at promyelocytic leukemia bodies in immortalized telomerase-negative cells. In addition, our data show that PARP activity regulates the DNA binding activity of TRF2 via both a covalent heteromodification of the dimerization domain of TRF2 and a noncovalent binding of poly(ADP-ribose) to the myb domain of TRF2. PARP-2(-/-) primary cells show normal telomere length as well as normal telomerase activity compared to wild-type cells but display a spontaneously increased frequency of chromosome and chromatid breaks and of ends lacking detectable T(2)AG(3) repeats. Altogether, these results suggest a functional role of PARP-2 activity in the maintenance of telomere integrity. 相似文献

Cells respond to DNA damage by activating both cellular growth arrest and DNA repair processes. In Saccharomyces cerevesiae the RAD9 gene controls DNA damage-mediated cell cycle arrest that is known to allow efficient repair. To ascertain whether RAD9 plays a role in DNA repair per se, the removal of UV-induced photolesions was assessed in synchronized isogenic normal and rad9Δ cells using the high resolution primer extension technique. The results show that RAD9 is indeed involved in the removal of photolesions from both the transcribed and the non-transcribed strands of the reporter GAL10 gene, in G1- as well as G2/M-arrested cells. Interestingly, these data also reveal that in both normal and rad9 mutant, the repair strand bias towards the transcribed stand is more pronounced in G2/M- than in G1-arrested cells. These data indicate that RAD9 coordinate the cellular response to DNA damage by activating both cell cycle checkpoint and excision repair. 相似文献

The proto-oncogenes c-fos and c-jun have been shown in numerous model systems to be induced within minutes of growth factor stimulation, during the G0/G1 transition. In this report we use the mitotic shake-off procedure to generate a population of highly synchronized Swiss 3T3 cells. We show that both of these immediate-early, competence genes are also induced during the M/G1 transition, immediately after completion of mitosis. While c-fos mRNA levels drop to undetectable levels within 2 hr after division, c-jun mRNA levels are maintained at a basal level which is ~ 30% maximum throughout the remainder of G1. In order to access the functional significance of these patterns of c-fos and c-jun expression, antisense oligodeoxynucleotides specific to c-fos or c-jun were added to either actively growing Swiss 3T3 cells or mitotically synchronized cells, and their ability to inhibit DNA synthesis and cell division determined. Our results show that treatment of Swiss 3T3 cells with either c-fos or c-jun antisense oligodeoxynucleotides, while actively growing, during mitosis, or in early G1, results in a reduction in ability to enter S and subsequently divide. This was also true if Swiss 3T3 cells were treated during mid-G1 with c-jun antisense oligodeoxynucleotides. These results demonstrate that the regulation of G1 progression following mitosis is dependent upon the expression and function of the immediate-early, competence proto-oncogenes c-fos and c-jun. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

The small GTPase Ran is required for the trafficking of macromolecules into and out of the nucleus. Ran also has been implicated in cell cycle control, specifically in mitotic spindle assembly. In interphase cells, Ran is predominately nuclear and thought to be GTP bound, but it is also present in the cytoplasm, probably in the GDP-bound state. Nuclear transport factor 2 (NTF2) has been shown to import RanGDP into the nucleus. Here, we examine the in vivo role of NTF2 in Ran import and the effect that disruption of Ran imported into the nucleus has on the cell cycle. A temperature-sensitive (ts) mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae NTF2 that does not bind to Ran is unable to import Ran into the nucleus at the nonpermissive temperature. Moreover, when Ran is inefficiently imported into the nucleus, cells arrest in G(2) in a MAD2 checkpoint-dependent manner. These findings demonstrate that NTF2 is required to transport Ran into the nucleus in vivo. Furthermore, we present data that suggest that depletion of nuclear Ran triggers a spindle-assembly checkpoint-dependent cell cycle arrest. 相似文献

G Protein-coupled receptor kinase 5 is localized to centrosomes and regulates cell cycle progression
Michal AM So CH Beeharry N Shankar H Mashayekhi R Yen TJ Benovic JL 《The Journal of biological chemistry》2012,287(9):6928-6940
G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) are important regulators of G protein-coupled receptor function and mediate receptor desensitization, internalization, and signaling. While GRKs also interact with and/or phosphorylate many other proteins and modify their function, relatively little is known about the cellular localization of endogenous GRKs. Here we report that GRK5 co-localizes with γ-tubulin, centrin, and pericentrin in centrosomes. The centrosomal localization of GRK5 is observed predominantly at interphase and although its localization is not dependent on microtubules, it can mediate microtubule nucleation of centrosomes. Knockdown of GRK5 expression leads to G2/M arrest, characterized by a prolonged G2 phase, which can be rescued by expression of wild type but not catalytically inactive GRK5. This G2/M arrest appears to be due to increased expression of p53, reduced activity of aurora A kinase and a subsequent delay in the activation of polo-like kinase 1. Overall, these studies demonstrate that GRK5 is localized in the centrosome and regulates microtubule nucleation and normal cell cycle progression. 相似文献

Despite the critical importance of TBX5 in normal development and disease, relatively little is known about the mechanisms by which TBX5 functions in the embryonic heart. Our present studies demonstrate that TBX5 is necessary to control the length of the embryonic cardiac cell cycle, with depletion of TBX5 leading to cardiac cell cycle arrest in late G(1)- or early S-phase. Blocking cell cycle progression by TBX5 depletion leads to a decrease in cardiac cell number, an alteration in the timing of the cardiac differentiation program, defects in cardiac sarcomere formation, and ultimately, to cardiac programmed cell death. In these studies we have also established that terminally differentiated cardiomyocytes retain the capacity to undergo cell division. We further show that TBX5 is sufficient to determine the length of the embryonic cardiac cell cycle and the timing of the cardiac differentiation program. Thus, these studies establish a role for TBX5 in regulating the progression of the cardiac cell cycle. 相似文献

Previously, we have shown that SNM1A is a multifunctional gene involved in both the DNA damage response and in an early mitotic checkpoint in response to spindle stress. Another member of the SNM1 gene family, SNM1B/Apollo, has been shown to have roles in both the response to DNA interstrand cross-linking agents and in telomere protection during S phase. Here, we demonstrate a novel role for SNM1B/Apollo in mitosis in response to spindle stress. SNM1B-deficient cells exhibit a defect in the prophase checkpoint. Loss of the prophase checkpoint induces an extended mitotic delay, which is due to prolonged activation of the spindle checkpoint. In addition, we show that SNM1B/Apollo interacts with the essential microtubule binding protein Astrin. SNM1B/Apollo interacts with Astrin through its conserved metallo-β-lactamase domain, and disruption of this interaction by point mutations results in a deficient prophase checkpoint. These findings suggest that SNM1B/Apollo and Astrin function together to enforce the prophase checkpoint in response to spindle stress. 相似文献

Using a yeast two-hybrid screen we isolated a gene from Schizosaccharomyces pombe which corresponds to the previously uncharacterized ORF SPCC1906.01. We have designated this gene as mpg1, based on the putative function of its product as a mannose-1-phosphatase guanyltransferase. Mpg1 shows strong similarity to other GDP-mannose-1-phosphate guanyltransferases involved in the maintenance of cell wall integrity and/or glycosylation. This homology, together with the protein's localization pattern demonstrated in this work, strongly suggests that Mpg1 is involved in cell wall and septum synthesis. Moreover, cells lacking Mpg1 present a defect in glycosylation, are more sensitive to Lyticase, and show an aberrant septum structure from the start of its deposition, indicating that the Mpg1 function is necessary for the correct assembly of the septum. Interestingly, lack of Mpg1 clearly affects cell cycle progression: mpg1 null mutants arrest as septated and bi-nucleated 4C cells, without an actomyosin ring. Wee1 is required for the G2/M arrest induced in the absence of Mpg1, since the blockade is circumvented when Wee1 is inactivated. Wee1 is part of a cell-size checkpoint that prevents entry into mitosis before cells reach a critical size. The results presented in this work demonstrate that the G2/M arrest induced in the absence of Mpg1 is mediated by this cell size checkpoint, since oversized mutant cells enter mitosis. The mpg1 loss-of-function mutant, therefore, provides a good model in which to study how cells coordinate cell growth and cell division. 相似文献

Heterotrimeric G proteins are critical cellular signal transducers. They are known to directly relay signals from seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) to downstream effectors. On the other hand, receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), a different family of membrane receptors, signal through docking sites in their carboxy-terminal tails created by autophosphorylated tyrosine residues. Here we show that a heterotrimeric G protein, G alpha(13), is essential for RTK-induced migration of mouse fibroblast and endothelial cells. G alpha(13) activity in cell migration is retained in a C-terminal mutant that is defective in GPCR coupling, suggesting that the migration function is independent of GPCR signaling. Thus, G alpha(13) appears to be a critical signal transducer for RTKs as well as GPCRs. This broader role of G alpha(13) in cell migration initiated by two types of receptors could provide a molecular basis for the vascular system defects exhibited by G alpha(13) knockout mice. 相似文献

The maintenance of genome integrity requires a rapid and specific response to many types of DNA damage. The conserved and related PI3-like protein kinases, ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) and ATM-Rad3-related (ATR), orchestrate signal transduction pathways in response to genomic insults, such as DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). It is unclear which proteins recognize DSBs and activate these pathways, but the Mre11/Rad50/NBS1 complex has been suggested to act as a damage sensor. Here we show that infection with an adenovirus lacking the E4 region also induces a cellular DNA damage response, with activation of ATM and ATR. Wild-type virus blocks this signaling through degradation of the Mre11 complex by the viral E1b55K/E4orf6 proteins. Using these viral proteins, we show that the Mre11 complex is required for both ATM activation and the ATM-dependent G(2)/M checkpoint in response to DSBs. These results demonstrate that the Mre11 complex can function as a damage sensor upstream of ATM/ATR signaling in mammalian cells. 相似文献
