A chemical-genetic system to rapidly inhibit the PP2A-B56 phosphatase


ABSTRACT: Serine-threonine phosphatases have been challenging to study because of the lack of specific inhibitors. Their catalytic domains are druggable, but these are shared or very similar between individual phosphatase complexes, precluding their specific inhibition. Instead, phosphatase complexes achieve specificity by interacting with short-linear motifs (SLiMs) in substrates or their binding partners. We develop here a chemical-genetic system to rapidly inhibit these interactions within the PP2A-B56 family. Drug-inducible recruitment of ectopic SLiMs (“directSLiMs”) is used to rapidly block the SLiM-binding pocket on the B56 regulatory subunit, thereby displacing endogenous interactors and inhibiting PP2A-B56 activity within seconds. We use this system to characterise PP2A-B56 substrates during mitosis and to identify a novel role for PP2A-B56 in maintaining kinetochore microtubule attachments at metaphase. The directSLiMs approach can be used to inhibit any other phosphatase, enzyme or protein that uses a critical SLiM-binding interface, providing a powerful strategy to inhibit and characterise proteins once considered “undruggable”.
