Abstract

Kinetochores form the interface between chromosomes and spindle microtubules and are thus under tight control by a complex regulatory circuitry. The Aurora B kinase plays a central role within this circuitry by destabilizing improper kinetochore-microtubule attachments and relaying the attachment status to the spindle assembly checkpoint. Intriguingly, Aurora B is conserved even in kinetoplastids, a group of early-branching eukaryotes which possess a unique set of kinetochore proteins. It remains unclear how their kinetochores are regulated to ensure faithful chromosome segregation. Here, we show in Trypanosoma brucei that Aurora B activity controls the metaphase-to-anaphase transition through phosphorylation of the divergent Bub1-like protein KKT14. Depletion of KKT14 overrides the metaphase arrest resulting from Aurora B inhibition, while expression of non-phosphorylatable KKT14 delays anaphase onset. Finally, we demonstrate that re-targeting Aurora B to the outer kinetochore suffices to promote mitotic exit but causes extensive chromosome missegregation in anaphase. Our results indicate that Aurora B and KKT14 are involved in an unconventional circuitry controlling cell cycle progression in trypanosomes.

极光 B 控制着锥虫无丝分裂期的开始和无差错染色体分离。
动点形成染色体与纺锤体微管之间的界面,因此受到复杂的调控电路的严格控制。极光 B 激酶在这一电路中起着核心作用,它能破坏不正常的动点核心-微管连接的稳定性,并将连接状态传递给纺锤体组装检查点。耐人寻味的是,极光 B 甚至在真核细胞中也是保守的,真核细胞是一类早期分支真核生物,拥有一套独特的动点核心蛋白。目前仍不清楚它们的动点如何调控以确保染色体的忠实分离。在这里,我们在布氏锥虫中发现,极光 B 的活性通过磷酸化不同的 Bub1 样蛋白 KKT14 来控制着色期到无色期的转变。KKT14的耗竭会推翻极光B抑制导致的无丝分裂期停滞,而不可磷酸化的KKT14的表达会延迟无丝分裂期的开始。最后,我们证明将 Aurora B 重新定向到外侧动点足以促进有丝分裂的退出,但在无丝分裂期会导致广泛的染色体错聚。我们的研究结果表明,极光 B 和 KKT14 参与了控制锥虫细胞周期进展的非常规电路。
