Cdc25B cooperates with Cdc25A to induce mitosis but has a unique role in activating cyclin B1–Cdk1 at the centrosome

Abstract: Cdc25 phosphatases are essential for the activation of mitotic cyclin–Cdks, but the precise roles of the three mammalian isoforms (A, B, and C) are unclear. Using RNA interference to reduce the expression of each Cdc25 isoform in HeLa and HEK293 cells, we observed that Cdc25A and -B are both needed for mitotic entry, whereas Cdc25C alone cannot induce mitosis. We found that the G2 delay caused by small interfering RNA to Cdc25A or -B was accompanied by reduced activities of both cyclin B1–Cdk1 and cyclin A–Cdk… Show more

“…The localization of cyclin A/cdk2 to the centrosome in late G 2 phase, prior to evidence of microtubule nucleation, suggests that it may normally have a role in regulating the timing of cyclin B/cdk1 activation at that location. Cyclin B/cdk1 is activated at the centrosome by the cdc25B phosphatase (Lindqvist et al, 2005), and Aurora A has been reported to phosphorylate and regulate cdc25B at the centrosome (Dutertre et al, 2004). This Aurora A-dependent mechanism may ensure activation of the centrosomal cyclin B/cdk1 precedes activation of the major soluble pool.…”

“…During interphase, Golgi ribbons are positioned adjacent to, and may be physically linked to, centrosomes actively involved in nucleating microtubule assembly (for reviews, see Rios and Bornens, 2003;Linstedt, 2004). In preparation for mitosis, centrosome duplication and separation are required steps before CDK1 activation (Lindqvist et al, 2005). A linked Golgi apparatus may impede centrosome separation, and this, in turn, might cause a delay in G 2 /M.…”

“…Centrosomal Cdk1-Cyclin B activation has a role in the process of centrosome separation (Blangy et al, 1997;Jackman et al, 2003;Lindqvist et al, 2005). Interestingly, Kramer et al, determined that Cdk1 is prevented from premature activation by Chk1 at centrosomes (Kramer et al, 2004).…”
