Project description:Kinetochores assemble on centromeres via histone H3 variant CENP-A and low levels of noncoding centromere transcripts (cenRNAs). The latter are ensured by downregulation of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) and turnover by the nuclear exosome. Using S. cerevisiae, we now add kinase Rio1 to this scheme. Yeast cenRNAs are produced in very low amounts either as short (median lengths of 231nt) or long (4,458nt) transcripts, in a 1:1 ratio. Rio1 limits their production by reducing RNAPII access and transcription activity, and promotes their turnover by the 5’-3’exoribonuclease Rat1. Rio1 similarly curtails the concentrations of noncoding pericenRNAs, which also exist as short transcripts (225nt) at a magnitude higher level than the cenRNAs. In yeast depleted of Rio1, cen- and pericenRNAs accumulatre, and kinetochores misform causing chromosomal instability. The latter phenotypes were also observed with human cells lacking orthologue RioK1, suggesting that CEN regulation by Rio1/RioK1 is evolutionary conserved.

Project description:Kinetochores assemble on centromeres via histone H3 variant CENP-A and low levels of noncoding centromere transcripts (cenRNAs). The latter are ensured by transcription factor Cbf1 (S. cerevisiae), centromere-binding protein CENP-B (humans), and the local histone code downregulating RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) activity. CenRNAs levels are further adjusted by the nuclear exosome. Using S. cerevisiae, we now add kinase Rio1 to this scheme. Yeast cenRNAs are produced mostly from the periCEN regions as short (median lengths of 231nt) or long (4,458nt) transcripts, in a 1:1 ratio. Rio1 limits their production by reducing RNAPII access and transcription activity, and promotes their turnover by the 5’-3’exoribonuclease Rat1. Rio1 similarly curtails the concentrations of noncoding pericenRNAs, which nevertheless exist at a magnitude higher level than the cenRNAs. Similar to yeast, human cells depleted of orthologue RioK1 exhibit cenRNA buildup, kinetochore malformation, and chromosomal instability, suggesting that CEN regulation by Rio1/RioK1 is evolutionary conserved.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Cells undergoing meiosis perform two consecutive divisions after a single round of DNA replication. During the first meiotic division, homologous chromosomes segregate to opposite poles. This is achieved by (1) the pairing of maternal and paternal chromosomes via recombination producing chiasmata, (2) coorientation of homologous chromosomes such that sister chromatids attach to the same spindle pole, and (3) resolution of chiasmata by proteolytic cleavage by separase of the meiotic-specific cohesin Rec8 along chromosome arms. Crucially, cohesin at centromeres is retained to allow sister centromeres to biorient at the second division. Little is known about how these meiosis I-specific events are regulated. RESULTS: Here, we show that Spo13, a centromere-associated protein produced exclusively during meiosis I, is required to prevent sister kinetochore biorientation by facilitating the recruitment of the monopolin complex to kinetochores. Spo13 is also required for the reaccumulation of securin, the persistence of centromeric cohesin during meiosis II, and the maintenance of a metaphase I arrest induced by downregulation of the APC/C activator CDC20. CONCLUSION: Spo13 is a key regulator of several meiosis I events. The presence of Spo13 at centromere-surrounding regions is consistent with the notion that it plays a direct role in both monopolin recruitment to centromeres during meiosis I and maintenance of centromeric cohesion between the meiotic divisions. Spo13 may also limit separase activity after the first division by ensuring securin reaccumulation and, in doing so, preventing precocious removal from chromatin of centromeric cohesin.

Keywords: Meiosis, Cell cycle, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Chromosome VI tiling array, Spo13, ChIP-chip ⢠Experimental factors Distribution of the Spo13 at Meiosis I. Experiment was performed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae SK1 strain. ⢠Experimental design ChIP analysis: Hybridization data for ChIP fraction was compared with that of SUP (supernatant) fraction. Cerevisiae chromosome VI array was used. ⢠Quality control steps taken Checking of the ChIP fraction by Western blotting. Mock hybridisation of samples immunoprecipitated from cells containing no tag recognized by antibody used. Sup swapping. Samples used, extract preparation and labelling: ⢠The origin of each biological sample Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SK1). ⢠Manipulation of biological samples and protocols used Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and hybridization to Affimetrix high-density oligonucleotide arrays of S. cerevisiae chromosome VIwere performed essentially as previously described (Katou et al., 2003, nature) (Lengronne et al., 2004, nature). ⢠Technical protocols for preparing the hybridization extract The chromatin-immunprecipates were eluted and incubated over night at 65ºC to reverse the cross-link. Immunoprecipitated genomic DNA was incubated with proteinase K, extracted 2 times with phenol/chloroform/isoamylalcohol, precipitated, resuspended in TE and incubated with RnaseA. The DNA was then purified using the Qiagen PCR purification kit, and concentrated by ethanol precipitation. The DNA was amplified by PCR after random priming. 10 ug of amplified DNA was digested with Dnase I to a mean size of 100 bp. After Dnase I inactivation at 95ºC. DNA fragments were end-labeled by addition of 25 U of Terminal Transferase and 1 nmol Biotin-N6ddATP (NEN) for 1 hour at 37ºC as previously described by Winzeler et al. (Science. 281, 1194-1197, 1998). The entire sample was used for hybridization. ⢠Hybridization procedures and parameters: Hybridization, blocking and washing were carried out as previously described (Lengronne et al. Nature 2004). Each sample was hybridized to the array in 150 ul containing 6xSSPE; 0.005% TritonX-100; 15 ug fragmented denatured salmon sperm DNA (Gibco-BRL); 1 nmole 3âbiotin labelled control oligonucleotide (oligo B2, Affymetrix). Samples were denatured at 100ºC for 10 minutes, and then put on ice before being hybridized for 16 hours at 42ºC in a hybridization oven (GeneChip Hybridization Oven 640, Affymetrix). Washing and scanning protocol provided by Affymetrix was performed automatically on a fluidics station (GeneChip fluidics station 450, Affymetrix). ⢠Measurement data and specifications: Arrays were scanned using the Genechip Scanner3000 7G following the library array description. All the cel files data and processed data files can be downloaded from GEO database. The primary analysis of tiling chip data was performed following exactly the statistical algorithm used for Affymetrix GeneChip Operating Software (GCOS). The detailed information for the algorithm used can be downloaded from the Affymetrix web site. The analysis is available on request. For the ChrVI array, one unit for analysis (locus) was set to 300bp. Fold change value, change p-value, and detection p-value for each locus were obtained by primary analysis. For the discrimination of positive and negative signals for the binding, we used three criteria as follows. First, the reliability of the signal strength was judged by detection p-value of each locus (p-valueâ¤0.025). Secondly, reliability of binding ratio was judged by change p-value (p-valueâ¤0.0025). Thirdly, clusters consisting of at least 900bp contiguous loci that satisfied the above two criteria were selected, because it is known that a single site of protein-DNA interaction resulted in immuno-precipitation of DNA fragments that hybridized not only to the locus of the actual binding site but also to its neighbors. ⢠Array Design: General array design: in situ synthesized arrays by Affymetrix Availability of arrays: commercially available from Affymetrix Location and ID of each spot on arrays: available from Affymetrix on request Probe type: oligonucleotide The arrays used in this study can be purchased from Affymetrix: Chromosome VI S.cerevisiae: rikDACFC6, P/N# 510636 GSM108198 was used for normalization of GSM108511.

Project description:Accurate chromosome segregation during cell division maintains genomic integrity and requires the proper establishment of kinetochore-microtubule attachment in mitosis. As a key regulator of mitosis, Polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1) is essential for this attachment process, but the molecular mechanism remains elusive. Here we identify Sgt1, a cochaperone for Hsp90, as a novel Plk1 substrate during mitosis. We show that Sgt1 dynamically localizes at the kinetochores, which lack microtubule attachments during prometaphase. Plk1 is required for the kinetochore localization of Sgt1 and phosphorylates serine 331 of Sgt1 at the kinetochores. This phosphorylation event enhances the association of the Hsp90-Sgt1 chaperone with the MIS12 complex to stabilize this complex at the kinetochores and thus coordinates the recruitment of the NDC80 complex to form efficient microtubule-binding sites. Disruption of Sgt1 phosphorylation reduces the MIS12 and NDC80 complexes at the kinetochores, impairs stable microtubule attachment, and eventually results in chromosome misalignment to delay the anaphase onset. Our results demonstrate a mechanism for Plk1 in promoting kinetochore-microtubule attachment to ensure chromosome stability.

Project description:Centromeres play an essential role in cell division by specifying the site of kinetochore formation on each chromosome so that chromosomes can attach to the mitotic spindle for segregation. Centromeres are defined epigenetically by the histone H3 variant CEntromere Protein A (CENP-A). Dividing cells maintain the centromere by depositing new CENP-A each cell cycle to replenish CENP-A diluted by replication. The CENP-A nucleosome serves as the primary signal to the machinery responsible for its replenishment. Vertebrate centromeres are frequently built on repetitive sequences organized in tandem arrays. Repetitive centromeric DNA has been suggested to play a role in centromere maintenance and in de novo centromere formation, but this has been difficult to dissect because of the difficulty in manipulating centromere in cells. Extracts from Xenopus laevis eggs are able to assemble centromeres and kinetochores in vitro and thus provide a useful system for studying the role of centromeric DNA in centromere formation. However centromeric sequences in X. laevis have not been extensively characterized.. In this study we characterize repeat sequences found at X. laevis centromeres. We utilize a k-mer based approach in order to uncover the previously unknown diversity of X. laevis centromeric sequences. We validate centromere localization of repeat sequences by in situ hybridization and identify the location of the centromeric repetitive array on each chromosome by mapping the distribution of centromere enriched k-mers on the Xenopus genome. Our identification of X. laevis centromere sequences enables previously unapproachable genomic studies of centromeres. The k-mer based approach that we used to investigate centromeric repetitive DNA is suitable for the analysis of other repetitive sequences found across the genome or the study of repeats in other organisms.
