Project description:Proper chromosome segregation is required to ensure genomic and chromosomal stability. The centromere is a unique chromatin domain present throughout the cell cycle on each chromosome defined by the CENP-A nucleosome. Centromeres (CEN) are responsible for recruiting the kinetochore (KT) during mitosis, ultimately regulating spindle attachment and mitotic checkpoint function. Upregulation of many genes that encode CEN/KT proteins is commonly observed in cancer. Here, we show although FOXM1 occupies the promoters of many CEN/KT genes with MYBL2, occupancy is insufficient alone to drive the FOXM1 correlated transcriptional program. We show that CENP-F, a component of the outer kinetochore, functions with FOXM1 to coregulate G2/M transcription and proper chromosome segregation. Loss of CENP-F results in alteration of chromatin accessibility at G2/M genes, including CENP-A, and leads to reduced FOXM1-MBB complex formation. The FOXM1-CENP-F transcriptional coordination is a cancer-specific function. We observed that a few CEN/KT genes escape FOXM1 regulation such as CENP-C which when upregulated with CENP-A, leads to increased chromosome misegregation and cell death. Together, we show that the FOXM1 and CENP-F coordinately regulate G2/M gene expression, and this coordination is specific to a subset of genes to allow for proliferation and maintenance of chromosome stability for cancer cell survival.

Project description:Centromeric chromatin is crucial for supporting kinetochore assembly and chromosome segregation. To specify centromeres, the histone H3 variant CENP-A is loaded by the conserved chaperone Scm3/HJURP. The amino-terminus of Scm3/HJURP interacts with CENP-A, while the carboxyl-terminus contains a small domain that interacts with the Mis18 holocomplex, which facilitates centromere localization. Fungal Scm3 proteins contain an additional conserved cysteine-rich domain (CYS) with unknown function. In this study, we found that CYS is essential for the localization and function of fission yeast Scm3. Disrupting CYS prevents Scm3 from localizing to the centromere and results in cell lethality. Moreover, introducing point mutations in a predicted zinc-binding motif within CYS hinders Scm3 centromere targeting and kinetochore integrity, consistent with structural evidence that CYS binds zinc. We find that expressing only the Scm3 carboxyl-terminus is harmful as it localizes to centromeres and causes defective kinetochores. Remarkably, mutating the CYS zinc-binding motif in this construct eliminates the observed centromere localization and toxicity. Together, our findings establish this cysteine-rich domain with predicted zinc-binding capability as an essential feature of fungal Scm3 proteins and shed new light on the molecular mechanism for targeting Scm3 to centromeres.

Project description:Bub1 is required for the kinetochore/centromere localization of two essential mitotic kinases Plk1 and Aurora B. Surprisingly, stable depletion of Bub1 by ~95% in human cells marginally affects whole chromosome segregation fidelity. We show that CENP-U, which is recruited to kinetochores by the CENP-P and CENP-Q subunits of the CENP-O complex, is required to prevent chromosome mis-segregation in Bub1-depleted cells. Mechanistically, Bub1 and CENP-U redundantly recruit Plk1 to kinetochores to stabilize kinetochore-microtubule attachments, thereby ensuring accurate chromosome segregation. Furthermore, unlike its budding yeast homolog, the CENP-O complex does not regulate centromeric localization of Aurora B. Consistently, depletion of Bub1 or CENP-U sensitizes cells to the inhibition of Plk1 but not Aurora B kinase activity. Taken together, our findings provide mechanistic insight into the regulation of kinetochore function, which may have implications for targeted treatment of cancer cells with mutations perturbing kinetochore recruitment of Plk1 by Bub1 or the CENP-O complex.
