Structural basis for the assembly of Mis18a/b core modules

ABSTRACT: The centromere, defined by the enrichment of CENP-A (a Histone H3 variant) containing nucleosomes, is a specialised chromosomal locus that acts as a microtubule attachment site. To preserve centromere identity, CENP-A levels must be maintained through active CENP-A loading during the cell cycle. A central player mediating this process is the Mis18 complex (Mis18a, Mis18b and Mis18BP1), which recruits the CENP-A specific chaperone HJURP to centromeres for CENP-A deposition. Here, using a multi-pronged approach, we characterise the structure of the Mis18 complex and show that multiple hetero- and homo-oligomeric interfaces facilitate the hetero-octameric Mis18 complex assembly composed of 4 Mis18a, 2 Mis18b and 2 Mis18BP1. Evaluation of structure-guided/separation-of-function mutants reveals structural determinants essential for Mis18 complex assembly and centromere maintenance. Our results provide new mechanistic insights on centromere maintenance, highlighting that while Mis18a can associate with centromeres and deposit CENP-A independently of Mis18b, the latter is indispensable for the optimal level of CENP-A loading required for preserving the centromere identity.

A complimentary benzophenone cross-linking/mass spectrometry photochemistry

Identification of HJURP binding determinants on the Mis18 complex using photo-cross-linking and mass spectrometry

Project description:In the early G1 phase of the cell cycle, human HJURP is recruited to centromeres by the Mis18 complex, which consists of Mis18α, Mis18β and M18BP1. This interaction of HJURP with the Mis18 complex is essential for CENP-A deposition and the preservation of centromere identity. To identify the binding site of HJURP on the Mis18 complex, we used the amber-codon suppression method to incorporate unnatural photo-cross-linking amino acids (Bpa, p-benzoyl-L-phenylalanine; AbK, 3’-azibutyl-N-carbamoyl-lysine) and performed UV-cross-linking and mass spectrometry (MS) experiments.

Blind testing cross-linking/mass spectrometry under the auspices of the 11th critical assessment of methods of protein structure prediction (CASP11)

Project description:We report the first blind test on the readiness of combining high-density cross-linking/mass spectrometry data in conjunction with ab initio structure prediction, through the help of Critical Assessment of protein Structure Prediction (CASP). This blind test was coordinated by the CASP organizers and utilized the experimental protocol developed in our lab for providing high-density cross-linking/mass spectrometry data in a matter of days. The CASP organizing committee identified and acquired suitable targets and published resulting data on the CASP web page for the community of structure predictors. We provided high-density cross-linking/mass spectrometry data for four targets in CASP11, revealing to us some of the current limitations of cross-linking. These are areas where the method must now develop. With CASP taking place biannually into the future, blind testing low-resolution structure analysis tools is a worthwhile and feasible undertaking.

Mapping protein interactions in the active TOM-TIM23 supercomplex

Project description:Nuclear-encoded mitochondrial proteins destined for the matrix have to be transported across two membranes. The TOM and TIM23 complexes facilitate the transport of precursor proteins with N-terminal targeting signals into the matrix. During transport, precursors are recognized by the TIM23 complex in the inner membrane for handover from the TOM complex. However, we have little knowledge on the organisation of the TOM-TIM23 transition zone and on how precursor transfer between the translocases occurs. Here, we designed a precursor protein that is stalled during matrix transport in a TOM-TIM23-spanning manner and enables purification of the translocation intermediate. Combining chemical cross-linking with mass spectrometric analyses and structural modelling allowed us to map the molecular environment of the intermembrane space interface of TOM and TIM23 as well as the import motor interactions with amino acid resolution. Our analyses provide a framework for understanding presequence handover and translocation during matrix protein transport.

Direct recruitment of Mis18 to interphase spindle poles promotes CENP-A chromatin assembly.

Project description:CENP-A chromatin specifies mammalian centromere identity, and its chaperone HJURP replenishes CENP-A when recruited by the Mis18 complex (Mis18C) via M18BP/KNL2 to CENP-C at kinetochores during interphase. However, the Mis18C recruitment mechanism remains unresolved in species lacking M18BP1, such as fission yeast. Fission yeast centromeres cluster at G2 spindle pole bodies (SPBs) when CENP-ACnp1 is replenished and where Mis18C also localizes. We show that SPBs play an unexpected role in concentrating Mis18C near centromeres through the recruitment of Mis18 by direct binding to the major SPB LInker of Nucleoskeleton and Cytoskeleton (LINC) complex component Sad1. Mis18 recruitment by Sad1 is important for CENP-ACnp1 chromatin establishment and acts in parallel with a CENP-C-mediated Mis18C recruitment pathway to maintain centromeric CENP-ACnp1, but is independent of Sad1-mediated centromere clustering. SPBs therefore provide a non-chromosomal scaffold for both Mis18C recruitment and centromere clustering during G2. This centromere-independent Mis18-SPB recruitment provides a mechanism that governs de novo CENP-ACnp1 chromatin assembly by the proximity of appropriate sequences to SPBs and highlights how nuclear spatial organization influences centromere identity.

Protein Structure Determination in Biological Matrices by Mass Spectrometry and Computational Biology

Project description:We have implemented the use of a heterobifunctional, UV photoactivatable cross-linker, which greatly increases the number of identified cross-links compared with homobifunctional, NHS-ester based cross-linkers. We have cross-linked human serum albumin in the context of human blood serum. We present a novel methodology that combines the use of this high-resolution cross-linking with conformational space search to investigate the structure of proteins in their native environment.

Non-covalently associated peptides are observed during liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and affect cross-link analyses

Project description:Cross-Linking/mass spectrometry draws structural information out of covalently linked peptide pairs. When these links do not match to previous structural models they may indicate changes of protein conformation. Unfortunately, such links can also be the result of experimental errors or artefacts. Here we describe the observation of non-covalently associated peptides during liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis which can easily be misidentified as cross-linked. Strikingly, they often mismatch to the protein structure or may falsely suggest protein homo-dimerization. Non-covalently associated peptides presumably form during ionization and can be distinguished from cross-linked peptides by observing co-elution of the corresponding linear peptides in MS1, as well as the presence of the individual peptide fragments in mixed MS2 spectra. Interestingly, non-covalently associated peptides seem sensitive to ionization source design as we see them more prevalently on a Q Exactive than on an Orbitrap Velos mass spectrometer. Finally we show how more disruptive ionization settings such as moderate in-source fragmentation suppresses their presence.

Reconstitution of microtubule nucleation in vitro reveals novel roles for Mzt1

Project description:Protein-protein interaction within the MGM holocomplex has been investigated by chemical cross-linking mass spectrometry using EDC (1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide) cross-linker. Although this analysis was not exhaustive, we observed crosslinks between Alp4 and Alp6 along the length of these two proteins, consistent with their general parallel lateral alignment in current models for gamma-TuC organization. In addition, we observed specific cross-links from both Alp4 and Alp6 to the Mto1 [bonsai] CM1 domain and/or its immediate flanking regions. Interestingly, crosslinks from Alp4 and Alp6 N-terminal regions tended to be to the C-terminal portion of the CM1 domain, while crosslinks from Alp4 and Alp6 C-terminal regions tended to be to the N-terminal portion of the CM1 domain. This raises the possibility that the CM1 domain, which is adjacent to coiled-coil regions, may be oriented antiparallel to Alp4 and Alp6.
