The dimeric Golgi protein Gorab binds to Sas6 as a monomer to mediate centriole duplication.

ABSTRACT: The duplication and ninefold symmetry of the Drosophila centriole requires that the cartwheel molecule, Sas6, physically associates with Gorab, a trans-Golgi component. How Gorab achieves these disparate associations is unclear. Here, we use hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry to define Gorab's interacting surfaces that mediate its subcellular localization. We identify a core stabilization sequence within Gorab's C-terminal coiled-coil domain that enables homodimerization, binding to Rab6, and thereby trans-Golgi localization. By contrast, part of the Gorab monomer's coiled-coil domain undergoes an antiparallel interaction with a segment of the parallel coiled-coil dimer of Sas6. This stable heterotrimeric complex can be visualized by electron microscopy. Mutation of a single leucine residue in Sas6's Gorab-binding domain generates a Sas6 variant with a sixteenfold reduced binding affinity for Gorab that cannot support centriole duplication. Thus, Gorab dimers at the Golgi exist in equilibrium with Sas6-associated monomers at the centriole to balance Gorab's dual role.

Gorab is a Golgi protein required for structure and duplication of Drosophila centrioles.

Project description:We demonstrate that a Drosophila Golgi protein, Gorab, is present not only in the trans-Golgi but also in the centriole cartwheel where, complexed to Sas6, it is required for centriole duplication. In addition to centriole defects, flies lacking Gorab are uncoordinated due to defects in sensory cilia, which lose their nine-fold symmetry. We demonstrate the separation of centriole and Golgi functions of Drosophila Gorab in two ways: first, we have created Gorab variants that are unable to localize to trans-Golgi but can still rescue the centriole and cilia defects of gorab null flies; second, we show that expression of C-terminally tagged Gorab disrupts Golgi functions in cytokinesis of male meiosis, a dominant phenotype overcome by mutations preventing Golgi targeting. Our findings suggest that during animal evolution, a Golgi protein has arisen with a second, apparently independent, role in centriole duplication.

Targeting Drosophila Sas6 to mitochondria reveals its high affinity for Gorab.

Project description:The ability to relocalize proteins to defined subcellular locations presents a powerful tool to examine protein-protein interactions that can overcome a tendency of non-targeted exogenous proteins to form inaccessible aggregates. Here, we show that a 24-amino-acid sequence from the Drosophila proapoptotic protein Hid's tail anchor (HTA) domain can target exogenous proteins to the mitochondria in Drosophila cells. We use this HTA tag to target the Drosophila centriole cartwheel protein Sas6 to the mitochondria, and show that both exogenous and endogenous Gorab can be co-recruited from the Golgi to the new mitochondrial site. This accords with our previous observation that monomeric Drosophila Gorab binds Sas6 to become centriole associated with a 50-fold greater affinity than dimeric Gorab binds Rab6 to become localized at the Golgi. Strikingly, Drosophila Sas6 can bind both Drosophila Gorab and its human GORAB ortholog, whereas human SAS6 is unable to bind either GORAB or Gorab. We discuss these findings in relation to the evolutionary conservation of Gorab and the divergence of Sas6, possibly reflecting known differences in persistence of the cartwheel in the centriole duplication cycle of fly and human cells.

Centrobin: a novel daughter centriole-associated protein that is required for centriole duplication.

Project description:In mammalian cells, the centrosome consists of a pair of centrioles and amorphous pericentriolar material. The pair of centrioles, which are the core components of the centrosome, duplicate once per cell cycle. Centrosomes play a pivotal role in orchestrating the formation of the bipolar spindle during mitosis. Recent studies have linked centrosomal activity on centrioles or centriole-associated structures to cytokinesis and cell cycle progression through G1 into the S phase. In this study, we have identified centrobin as a centriole-associated protein that asymmetrically localizes to the daughter centriole. The silencing of centrobin expression by small interfering RNA inhibited centriole duplication and resulted in centrosomes with one or no centriole, demonstrating that centrobin is required for centriole duplication. Furthermore, inhibition of centriole duplication by centrobin depletion led to impaired cytokinesis.

GORAB scaffolds COPI at the trans-Golgi for efficient enzyme recycling and correct protein glycosylation.

Project description:COPI is a key mediator of protein trafficking within the secretory pathway. COPI is recruited to the membrane primarily through binding to Arf GTPases, upon which it undergoes assembly to form coated transport intermediates responsible for trafficking numerous proteins, including Golgi-resident enzymes. Here, we identify GORAB, the protein mutated in the skin and bone disorder gerodermia osteodysplastica, as a component of the COPI machinery. GORAB forms stable domains at the trans-Golgi that, via interactions with the COPI-binding protein Scyl1, promote COPI recruitment to these domains. Pathogenic GORAB mutations perturb Scyl1 binding or GORAB assembly into domains, indicating the importance of these interactions. Loss of GORAB causes impairment of COPI-mediated retrieval of trans-Golgi enzymes, resulting in a deficit in glycosylation of secretory cargo proteins. Our results therefore identify GORAB as a COPI scaffolding factor, and support the view that defective protein glycosylation is a major disease mechanism in gerodermia osteodysplastica.

E2F4's cytoplasmic role in multiciliogenesis is mediated via an N-terminal domain that binds two components of the centriole replication machinery, Deup1 and SAS6.

Project description:Multiciliated cells play critical roles in the airway, reproductive organs, and brain. Generation of multiple cilia requires both activation of a specialized transcriptional program and subsequent massive amplification of centrioles within the cytoplasm. The E2F4 transcription factor is required for both roles and consequently for multiciliogenesis. Here we establish that E2F4 associates with two distinct components of the centriole replication machinery, Deup1 and SAS6, targeting nonhomologous domains in these proteins. We map Deup1 and SAS6 binding to E2F4's N-terminus and show that this domain is sufficient to mediate E2F4's cytoplasmic role in multiciliogenesis. This sequence is highly conserved across the E2F family, but the ability to bind Deup1 and SAS6 is specific to E2F4 and E2F5, consistent with their shared roles in multiciliogenesis. By generating E2F4/E2F1 chimeras, we identify a six-residue motif that is critical for Deup1 and SAS6 binding. We propose that the ability of E2F4 and E2F5 to recruit Deup1 and/or SAS6, and enable centriole replication, contributes to their cytoplasmic roles in multiciliogenesis.

The dimeric SOS mutagenesis protein UmuD is active as a monomer.

Project description:The homodimeric umuD gene products play key roles in regulating the cellular response to DNA damage in Escherichia coli. UmuD(2) is composed of 139-amino acid subunits and is up-regulated as part of the SOS response. Subsequently, damage-induced RecA·ssDNA nucleoprotein filaments mediate the slow self-cleavage of the N-terminal 24-amino acid arms yielding UmuD'(2). UmuD(2) and UmuD'(2) make a number of distinct protein-protein contacts that both prevent and facilitate mutagenic translesion synthesis. Wild-type UmuD(2) and UmuD'(2) form exceptionally tight dimers in solution; however, we show that the single amino acid change N41D generates stable, active UmuD and UmuD' monomers that functionally mimic the dimeric wild-type proteins. The UmuD N41D monomer is proficient for cleavage and interacts physically with DNA polymerase IV (DinB) and the ? clamp. Furthermore, the N41D variants facilitate UV-induced mutagenesis and promote overall cell viability. Taken together, these observations show that a monomeric form of UmuD retains substantial function in vivo and in vitro.

MDM1 is a microtubule-binding protein that negatively regulates centriole duplication.

Project description:Mouse double-minute 1 (Mdm1) was originally identified as a gene amplified in transformed mouse cells and more recently as being highly up-regulated during differentiation of multiciliated epithelial cells, a specialized cell type having hundreds of centrioles and motile cilia. Here we show that the MDM1 protein localizes to centrioles of dividing cells and differentiating multiciliated cells. 3D-SIM microscopy showed that MDM1 is closely associated with the centriole barrel, likely residing in the centriole lumen. Overexpression of MDM1 suppressed centriole duplication, whereas depletion of MDM1 resulted in an increase in granular material that likely represents early intermediates in centriole formation. We show that MDM1 binds microtubules in vivo and in vitro. We identified a repeat motif in MDM1 that is required for efficient microtubule binding and found that these repeats are also present in CCSAP, another microtubule-binding protein. We propose that MDM1 is a negative regulator of centriole duplication and that its function is mediated through microtubule binding.

Mammalian HCA66 protein is required for both ribosome synthesis and centriole duplication.

Project description:Ribosome production, one of the most energy-consuming biosynthetic activities in living cells, is adjusted to growth conditions and coordinated with the cell cycle. Connections between ribosome synthesis and cell cycle progression have been described, but the underlying mechanisms remain only partially understood. The human HCA66 protein was recently characterized as a component of the centrosome, the major microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) in mammalian cells, and was shown to be required for centriole duplication and assembly of the mitotic spindle. We show here that HCA66 is also required for nucleolar steps of the maturation of the 40S ribosomal subunit and therefore displays a dual function. Overexpression of a dominant negative version of HCA66, accumulating at the centrosome but absent from the nucleoli, alters centrosome function but has no effect on pre-rRNA processing, suggesting that HCA66 acts independently in each process. In yeast and HeLa cells, depletion of MTOC components does not impair ribosome synthesis. Hence our results suggest that both in yeast and human cells, assembly of a functional MTOC and ribosome synthesis are not closely connected processes.

Protein Phosphatase 1 Down Regulates ZYG-1 Levels to Limit Centriole Duplication.

Project description:In humans perturbations of centriole number are associated with tumorigenesis and microcephaly, therefore appropriate regulation of centriole duplication is critical. The C. elegans homolog of Plk4, ZYG-1, is required for centriole duplication, but our understanding of how ZYG-1 levels are regulated remains incomplete. We have identified the two PP1 orthologs, GSP-1 and GSP-2, and their regulators I-2SZY-2 and SDS-22 as key regulators of ZYG-1 protein levels. We find that down-regulation of PP1 activity either directly, or by mutation of szy-2 or sds-22 can rescue the loss of centriole duplication associated with a zyg-1 hypomorphic allele. Suppression is achieved through an increase in ZYG-1 levels, and our data indicate that PP1 normally regulates ZYG-1 through a post-translational mechanism. While moderate inhibition of PP1 activity can restore centriole duplication to a zyg-1 mutant, strong inhibition of PP1 in a wild-type background leads to centriole amplification via the production of more than one daughter centriole. Our results thus define a new pathway that limits the number of daughter centrioles produced each cycle.

SFI1 promotes centriole duplication by recruiting USP9X to stabilize the microcephaly protein STIL.

Project description:In mammals, centrioles participate in brain development, and human mutations affecting centriole duplication cause microcephaly. Here, we identify a role for the mammalian homologue of yeast SFI1, involved in the duplication of the yeast spindle pole body, as a critical regulator of centriole duplication in mammalian cells. Mammalian SFI1 interacts with USP9X, a deubiquitylase associated with human syndromic mental retardation. SFI1 localizes USP9X to the centrosome during S phase to deubiquitylate STIL, a critical regulator of centriole duplication. USP9X-mediated deubiquitylation protects STIL from degradation. Consistent with a role for USP9X in stabilizing STIL, cells from patients with USP9X loss-of-function mutations have reduced STIL levels. Together, these results demonstrate that SFI1 is a centrosomal protein that localizes USP9X to the centrosome to stabilize STIL and promote centriole duplication. We propose that the USP9X protection of STIL to facilitate centriole duplication underlies roles of both proteins in human neurodevelopment.
