A role for Arf1 in mitotic Golgi disassembly, chromosome segregation, and cytokinesis.

ABSTRACT: In mitosis, chromosome, cytoskeleton, and organelle dynamics must be coordinated for successful cell division. Here, we present evidence for a role for Arf1, a small GTPase associated with the Golgi apparatus, in the orchestration of mitotic Golgi breakdown, chromosome segregation, and cytokinesis. We show that early in mitosis Arf1 becomes inactive and dissociates from Golgi membranes. This is followed by the dispersal of numerous Arf1-dependent peripheral Golgi proteins and subsequent Golgi disassembly. If Arf1 is kept in an active state by treatment with the small molecule H89 or expression of its GTP-locked form, intact Golgi membranes with bound peripheral proteins persist throughout mitosis. These cells enter mitosis but exhibit gross defects in chromosome segregation and cytokinetic furrow ingression. These findings suggest that mitotic Golgi disassembly depends on Arf1 inactivation and is used by the cell to disperse numerous peripheral Golgi proteins for coordinating the behavior of Golgi membranes, chromosomes, and cytoskeleton during mitosis.

Project description:Chromosome stability is crucial for homeostasis of pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) and early-stage embryonic development. Chromosomal defects may raise carcinogenic risks in regenerative medicine when using PSCs as original materials. However, the detailed mechanism regarding PSCs chromosome stability maintenance is not fully understood. Mouse embryonic stem cells (line D3) and human embryonic stem cells (line H9) were cultured under standard conditions. To confirm the loading of RetSat protein on mitotic chromosomes of PSCs, immunostaining was performed in PSCs spontaneous differentiation assay and iPSC reprogramming assay from mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), respectively. In addition, qPCR, immunoprecipitation, LC-MS/MS and immunoblotting were used to study the expression of RetSat, and interactions of RetSat with cohesin/condensin components. RNA sequencing and teratoma formation assay was conducted to evaluate the carcinogenic risk of mouse embryonic stem cells with RetSat deletion. We reported a PSC high-expressing gene, RetSat, plays key roles in chromosome stabilization. We identified RetSat protein localizing onto mitotic chromosomes specifically in stemness positive cells such as embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). We found dramatic chromosome instability, e.g. chromosome bridging, lagging and interphase micronuclei in mouse and human ESCs when down regulating RetSat. RetSat knock-out mouse ESCs upregulated cancer associated gene pathways, and displayed higher tumorigenic capacities in teratoma formation assay. Mechanistically, we confirmed that RetSat interacts with cohesin/condensin components Smc1a and Nudcd2. RetSat deletion impaired the chromosome loading dosage of Smc1a, Smc3 and Nudcd2. In summary, we reported RetSat to be a key stabilizer of chromosome condensation in pluripotent stem cells. This highlights the crucial roles of RetSat in early-stage embryonic development, and potential value of RetSat as an effective biomarker for assessing the quality of pluripotent stem cells.
