CDK1-Mediated BCL9 Phosphorylation Inhibits Clathrin to Promote Mitotic Wnt Signalling
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Uncontrolled cell division is a hallmark of cancer. Deregulation of Wnt components has been linked to aberrant cell division by multiple mechanisms, including Wnt-mediated stabilization of proteins signalling, which was notably observed in mitosis. Analysis of Wnt components revealed an unexpected role of B-cell CLL/lymphoma 9 (BCL9) in maintaining mitotic Wnt signalling to promote precise cell division and growth of cancer cell. Mitotic interactome analysis revealed a mechanistic role of BCL9 in inhibiting Clathrin-mediated degradation of LRP6 signalosome components by interacting with Clathrin and the components in Wnt destruction complex; this function was further controlled by CDK1-driven phosphorylation of BCL9 N-terminal, especially T172. Interestingly, T172 phosphorylation was correlated with cancer patient prognosis and enriched in tumours. Thus, our results revealed a novel role of BCL9 in controlling mitotic Wnt signalling to promote cell division and growth.
