The Anaphase-promoting Complex Coordinates Initiation of Lens Differentiation [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology of the Cell, 2007
Lens development requires the precise coordination of cell division and differentiation. The mechanisms by which the differentiation program is initiated after cell cycle arrest remains not well understood. Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CKIs), such as p15 and p21, have been suggested to be critical components that inhibit G1 progression and ...

Modeling Dual Pathways for the Metazoan Spindle Assembly Checkpoint [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Using computational modelling, we investigate mechanisms of signal transduction focusing on the spindle assembly checkpoint where a single unattached kinetochore is able to signal to prevent cell cycle progression.

Substrate-specific regulation of ubiquitination by the anaphase-promoting complex [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2011
By orchestrating the sequential degradation of a large number of cell cycle regulators, the ubiquitin ligase anaphase-promoting complex (APC/C) is essential for proliferation in all eukaryotes. The correct timing of APC/C-dependent substrate degradation, a critical feature of progression through mitosis, was long known to be controlled by mechanisms ...

PCSK9 Loss‐of‐Function Disrupts Cellular Microfilament Network via LIN28A/HES5/JMY Axis in Neural Tube Defects

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
PCSK9 acts as a molecular chaperone promoting LIN28A lysosomal degradation. LIN28A elevates transcription factor HES5, increasing JMY expression. PCSK9 loss causes neural tube defects (NTDs) by disrupting the LIN28A/HES5/JMY axis, and high JMY disorganizes the neural progenitor cell microfilament network, leading to incomplete neural tube structure in ...

Timed degradation of Mcl-1 controls mitotic cell death [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Mitotic arrest can result in cell death through the process of apoptosis. We have shown by live-cell imaging that the ubiquitin-proteasome dependent proteolysis of the apoptotic regulator Mcl-1 under the control of the anaphase-promoting complex or ...

APOL2 Stabilizes Ku80 to Confer NHEJ‐Mediated Radioresistance in Gastric Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Radiotherapy resistance in gastric cancer (GC) is often mediated by enhanced DNA repair. APOL2 is found to promote NHEJ by stabilizing Ku80, conferring radioresistance. High APOL2 correlates with poor prognosis. Formononetin disrupts APOL2‐Ku80, restoring radiosensitivity, suggesting a novel therapeutic strategy.

Role of ubiquitylation of components of mitotic checkpoint complex in their dissociation from anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Significance The mitotic checkpoint system is important for ensuring the correct segregation of chromosomes in mitosis. When chromosomes are not attached correctly to the mitotic spindle, a mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC) is formed that prevents ...

CDH1 Orchestrates Anabolic Events to Promote Cell Cycle Initiation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cell proliferation requires the integration of cell cycle and anabolic signals. G1‐phase regulator CDH1 coordinates anabolism through the CDH1‐VHL‐AARS2/HIF1α axis, while CDH1‐accumulated R5P is sensed by TKTL1 to facilitate CDH1 degradation and cell cycle initiation, constituting a CDH1‐centered regulatory circuit.

Structure of the Anaphase-Promoting Complex/Cyclosome Interacting with a Mitotic Checkpoint Complex [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2009
Once all chromosomes are connected to the mitotic spindle (bioriented), anaphase is initiated by the protein ubiquitylation activity of the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) and its coactivator Cdc20 (APC/C Cdc20 ). Before chromosome biorientation, anaphase is delayed by a mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC)

Polo‐Like Kinase 1 Phosphorylation Tunes the Functional Viscoelastic Properties of the Centrosome Scaffold

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
To enable mitotic spindle assembly during cell division, centrosomes must bear tensile stresses generated by microtubule‐mediated pulling forces. Micro‐rheology reveals that PLK‐1 phosphorylation of the scaffold protein SPD‐5 tunes the viscoelasticity, size, and morphology of the centrosome scaffold in C. elegans.
