Bub1 Kinase and Sgo1 Modulate Pericentric Chromatin in Response to Altered Microtubule Dynamics

Abstract: Background Tension sensing of bi-oriented chromosomes is essential for the fidelity of chromosome segregation. The spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) conveys lack of tension or attachment to the anaphase promoting complex. Components of the SAC (Bub1) phosphorylate histone H2A (S121) and recruit the protector of cohesin, Shugoshin (Sgo1) to the inner centromere. How the chromatin structural modifications of the inner centromere are integrated into the tension sensing mechanisms and the checkpoint are not known.… Show more

“…An attractive hypothesis is that the DNA at the entry/exit site of the nucleosome may come under tension when kinetochores biorient, thus signaling to the cell that the kinetochores have achieved biorientation. Consistent with this, tension-dependent changes in budding yeast pericentromeric chromatin structure have been observed by microscopy (Haase et al 2012;Verdaasdonk et al 2012). The localization of Sgo1 to this region may therefore be coupled to its ability to trigger the spindle checkpoint when the pericentromeric chromatin is not under tension.…”

“…While budding yeast pericentromeres lack heterochromatin, a conserved feature is the enrichment of cohesin and Sgo1 to promote kinetochore biorientation (Blat and Kleckner 1999;Tanaka et al 1999;Kiburz et al 2005Kiburz et al , 2008Eckert et al 2007). In addition, evidence suggests that the pericentromeric chromatin adopts a specialized intramolecular structure that is organized by Sgo1 and facilitates biorientation in budding yeast (Yeh et al 2008;Haase et al 2012). Consistent with this, changes in pericentromeric chromatin composition lead to defects in the organization of inner kinetochore proteins and chromosome segregation (Chambers et al 2012;Verdaasdonk et al 2012).…”

“…At least one function of pericentric cohesion is to facilitate kinetochore biorientation by resisting the pulling forces of microtubules and/or by promoting the architecture of sister kinetochores (Eckert et al 2007;Fernius and Marston 2009;Ng et al 2009;Bloom and Joglekar 2010). Consistent with this, the geometry and elasticity of the pericentromere and inner kinetochore can change in response to alterations in microtubule dynamics (Haase et al 2012;Stephens et al 2013). These properties are regulated by the Bub1 and Sgo1 proteins as well as various chromatin-remodeling complexes (Haase et al 2012;Verdaasdonk et al 2012).…”

These properties are regulated by the Bub1 and Sgo1 proteins as well as various chromatin-remodeling complexes (Haase et al 2012;Verdaasdonk et al 2012). While heterochromatin recruits pericentric cohesin in some organisms (Bernard et al 2001;Fukagawa et al 2004), components of the kinetochore itself direct cohesion enrichment in budding yeast (Megee et al 1999;Tanaka et al 1999;Weber et al 2004;Eckert et al 2007;Fernius and Marston 2009;Ng et al 2009;Fernius et al 2013).…”
