Lane Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center, Department of Biological Chemistry Office: 549 BSRB email: tlane@mednet.ucla.edu Actin Tubulin DNA Syncitial Divisions in Drosophila embryo. From Bill Sullivan UCSC These notes are posted on the www page! http://bio.research.ucsc.edu/people/sullivan/images.html
Last time: We talked more about the regulation of the cell cycle by cyclins and cdks: i. That G1 passage required E2F transcription factors, but that these proteins were held in an inactive state by RB. ii. That cdk4/cycD phosphorylation of pRB is required to release E2F and activate S phase genes (including cycE). ii. That S phase entry required cycE/cdc2 kinase activity. iii. Derepression of Histone genes required cycE/cdc2 phosphorylation of pNPAT We discussed multiple levels of regulation for cyclins and cdks, including: i. Transcriptional control of synthesis (pRB represses cycE) ii. Phosphorylation (wee1 etc) / dephosphorylation (cdc25) iii. binding to CKIs (Far1, Sic, p15) iv. turnover (TODAY!) We discussed results from KO mice that indicate many cyclins and cdks are dispensable for simple proliferation in mammalian cells, but are required for regulation and inductive activities in complex organisms.
Goals: The context will be Mitosis. How M-phase is regulated/ended! Examine how cyclins are turned over in the context of M

Cyclin B degradation in mitosis: What turns off APC? The Cyclin B degrading system must be turned off prior to G2 of the following cell cycle. Cyclin B proteolysis continues in G1 in yeast, until p34/cdc28 is reactivated by Cln G1 cyclins. What allows p34/cdc28 to be “reactivated”? Cyclin B2 (ClnB2) protein cannot accumulate in cells deprived of G1 cyclins. Expt from Amon et al.

Cyclin B degradation in mitosis: What turns off APC Cyclin B RNA Cyclin B protein H1 kinase activity cells do not express any G1 cyclins (clns). Consequently, they arrest in G1. They can accumulate cyclin B mRNA in response to galactose. Although cyclin B mRNA can be made, cyclin B protein cannot be made – cyclin B protein continues to be degraded. Since no cyclin is available to activate cdc28, no CDK activity (e.g. histone phosphorylation activity) is present. Conditions: + methionine, + galactose Amon et al 1994, Cell 77: 1037

Cyclin B degradation in mitosis: What turns off APC A summary of CLN production, CLB production and cyclin B destruction machinery in yeast CLN1, CLN2 and CLN3 absent in early G1, peak levels at the G1-S transition, and decline as cells enter G2. These kinases not only promote budding and DNA synthesis, but also inactivate CLB cyclin proteolysis. Activation of the M kinase during G2 causes repression of CLN1, CLN2 and CLN3 and onset of M phase Cyclin B proteolysis then persists during G1 until the reactivation of CLN cyclins APC mediated destruction machinery for cyclin B Cyclin Oscillations in yeast Clbs are required for S phase entry in S.cerevisiae

Degradation of non-cyclin proteins by the APC proteasome Expt 2: Inhibit APC directly RESULT: Cells arrest at anaphase. APC directed degradation of some other protein – before cyclin is degraded – must be necessary for sister chromatid separation; i.e., for the metaphase to anaphase transition to occur. Degradation of cyclin B must be necessary for a subsequent step; for the transition from telophase to G1. CycB ? ??? Cells arrest at anaphase Image by Abby Marsh Image by Abby Marsh

Summary of APC proteasome functions in Mitosis: APC-dependent Cyclin B degradation is necessary for telophase to interphase transition. APC-dependent Cut 2/PDS1 degradation is necessary for metaphase to anaphase transition.
WHAT ARE CUT2 AND PDS1 Cohesin, holds sister chromatids together CUT2 and PDS1 are also known as securins. Securin binds to a molecule called separase. Separase (Esp1 protein in Sc and CUT1 in Sp) is a protease that is inhibited by securin. When CUT2/PDS1/securin is degraded by the APC/proteasome prior to anaphase, separase can be activated by proteolytic activity. Separase then cleaves cohesins, which hold the sister chromatids in anaphase together. Cohesins Separase Securin Reviewed in Peters, 2002 Mol. Cell. 9:931 Yanagida, 2000 Genes to Cells 5:1

Mitosis: WHAT DIRECTS APC ACTIVITY? HCT1 mutant yeast cannot degrade cyclin B2 Expt: G1 phase wild-type yeast cells and G1 phase hct1 mutant cells were isolated by elutriation. At various times after isolation of G1 phase cells and continued growth, populations of cells were analyzed by western blotting for Clb2 protein. Schwab et al 1997, Cell 90:683
Mitosis: WHAT DIRECTS APC ACTIVITY: HCT1 does not direct APC/proteasome activity to the PDS1/securin protein. Expt: HCT1 is expressed from an inducible gal promoter. Cells were treated with galactose to induce HCT1 expression, and the ability of the cells to degrade both Clb2 and PDS1 was examined. Clb2 is rapidly degraded, PDS1/securin is not degraded.
