Full textAbstract:
The aerobic mitochondrion had undergone evolutionary diversification, most notable among lineages of anaerobic protists. Entamoeba is one of the genera of parasitic protozoans that lack canonical mitochondria, and instead possess mitochondrion-related organelles (MROs), specifically mitosomes. Entamoeba mitosomes exhibit functional reduction and divergence, most exemplified by the organelle’s inability to produce ATP and synthesize iron-sulfur cluster. Instead, this organelle is capable of sulfate activation, which has been linked to amoebic stage conversion. In order to understand other unique features and components of this MRO, we utilized an in silico prediction tool to screen transmembrane domain containing proteins in the mitosome proteome. Here, we characterize a novel lineage-specific mitosomal membrane protein, named Entamoeba transmembrane mitosomal protein of 30 kDa (ETMP30; EHI_172170), predicted to contain five transmembrane domains. Immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated colocalization of hemagglutinin (HA)-tagged ETMP30 with the mitosomal marker, adenosine-5’-phosphosulfate kinase. Mitosomal membrane localization was indicated by immunoelectron microscopy analysis, which was supported by carbonate fractionation assay. Transcriptional gene silencing successfully repressed RNA expression by 60%, and led to a defect in growth and partial elongation of mitosomes. Immunoprecipitation of ETMP30 from ETMP30-HA-expressing transformant using anti-HA antibody pulled down one interacting protein of 126 kDa. Protein sequencing by mass spectrometry revealed this protein as a cation-transporting P-type ATPase, previously reported to localize to vacuolar compartments/Golgi-like structures, hinting at a possible mitosome-vacuole/Golgi contact site.

Giardia intestinalisparasites contain mitosomes, one of the simplest mitochondrion-related organelles. Strategies to identify the functions of mitosomes have been limited mainly to homology detection, which is not suitable for identifying species-specific proteins and their functions. Anin vivoenzymatic tagging technique based on theEscherichia colibiotin ligase (BirA) has been introduced toG. intestinalis; this method allows for the compartment-specific biotinylation of a protein of interest. Known proteins involved in the mitosomal protein import werein vivotagged, cross-linked, and used to copurify complexes from the outer and inner mitosomal membranes in a single step. New proteins were then identified by mass spectrometry. This approach enabled the identification of highly diverged mitosomal Tim44 (GiTim44), the first known component of the mitosomal inner membrane translocase (TIM). In addition, our subsequent bioinformatics searches returned novel diverged Tim44 paralogs, which mediate the translation and mitosomal insertion of mitochondrially encoded proteins in other eukaryotes. However, most of the identified proteins are specific toG. intestinalisand even absent from the related diplomonad parasiteSpironucleus salmonicida, thus reflecting the unique character of the mitosomal metabolism. Thein vivoenzymatic tagging also showed that proteins enter the mitosome posttranslationally in an unfolded state and without vesicular transport.

ABSTRACT The highly reduced mitochondria (mitosomes) of Giardia intestinalis are recently discovered organelles for which, it was suggested, iron-sulfur cluster assembly was their only conserved function. However, only an incomplete set of the components required for FeS cluster biogenesis was localized to the mitosomes. Via proteomic analysis of a mitosome-rich cellular fraction together with immunofluorescence microscopy, we identified a novel mitosomal protein homologous to monothiol glutaredoxins containing a CGFS motif at the active site. Sequence analysis revealed the presence of long nonconserved N-terminal extension of 77 amino acids, which was absent in the mature protein. Expression of the complete and N-terminally truncated forms of the glutaredoxin indicated that the extension is involved in glutaredoxin import into mitosomes. However, the mechanism of preprotein processing is unclear, as the mitosomal processing peptidase is unable to cleave this type of extension. The recombinant mature protein was shown to form a homodimeric structure, which binds a labile FeS cluster. The cluster is stabilized by glutathione and dithiothreitol. Phylogenetic analysis showed that giardial glutaredoxin is related to the mitochondrial monothiol glutaredoxins involved in FeS cluster assembly. The identification of a mitochondrial-type monothiol glutaredoxin in the mitosomes of G. intestinalis thus completes the mitosomal FeS cluster biosynthetic pathway and provides further evidence for the mitochondrial origin of these organelles.

Full textAbstract:
Mitochondrial matrix proteins synthesized in the cytosol often contain amino (N)-terminal targeting sequences (NTSs), or alternately internal targeting sequences (ITSs), which enable them to be properly translocated to the organelle. Such sequences are also required for proteins targeted to mitochondrion-related organelles (MROs) that are present in a few species of anaerobic eukaryotes. Similar to other MROs, the mitosomes of the human intestinal parasite Entamoeba histolytica are highly degenerate, because a majority of the components involved in various processes occurring in the canonical mitochondria are either missing or modified. As of yet, sulfate activation continues to be the only identified role of the relic mitochondria of Entamoeba. Mitosomes influence the parasitic nature of E. histolytica, as the downstream cytosolic products of sulfate activation have been reported to be essential in proliferation and encystation. Here, we investigated the position of the targeting sequence of one of the mitosomal matrix enzymes involved in the sulfate activation pathway, ATP sulfurylase (AS). We confirmed by immunofluorescence assay and subcellular fractionation that hemagluttinin (HA)-tagged EhAS was targeted to mitosomes. However, its ortholog in the δ-proteobacterium Desulfovibrio vulgaris, expressed as DvAS-HA in amoebic trophozoites, indicated cytosolic localization, suggesting a lack of recognizable mitosome targeting sequence in this protein. By expressing chimeric proteins containing swapped sequences between EhAS and DvAS in amoebic cells, we identified the ITSs responsible for mitosome targeting of EhAS. This observation is similar to other parasitic protozoans that harbor MROs, suggesting a convergent feature among various MROs in favoring ITS for the recognition and translocation of targeted proteins.

Full textAbstract:
It is becoming increasingly clear that the so-called remnant organelles of microaerophilic unicellular eukaryotes, hydrogenosomes and mitosomes, are significantly reduced versions of mitochondria. They normally lack most of the classic mitochondrial attributes, such as an electron transport chain and a genome. While hydrogenosomes generate energy by substrate-level phosphorylation along a hydrogen-producing fermentation pathway, involving iron–sulfur-cluster-containing enzymes pyruvate : ferredoxin oxidoreductase (PFO) and hydrogenase, whether mitosomes participate in ATP synthesis is currently unknown. Both enzymes were recently described in the mitosome-bearing diplomonad Giardia intestinalis, also shown to produce molecular hydrogen. As published data show that giardial PFO is a membrane-associated enzyme, it could be suspected that PFO and hydrogenase operate in the mitosome, in which case the latter would by definition be a hydrogenosome. Using antibodies against recombinant enzymes of G. intestinalis, it was shown by Western blot analysis of subcellular fractions and by confocal immunofluorescence microscopy of whole cells that neither PFO nor hydrogenase localize to the mitosome, but are mostly found in the cytosol. The giardial mitosome is known to play a role in iron–sulfur cluster assembly and to contain chaperones Cpn60 and mtHsp70, which assist, in particular, in protein import. In mitochondria, transmembrane potential is essential for this complex process. Using MitoTracker Red and organelle-specific antibodies, transmembrane potential could be detected in the Trichomonas vaginalis hydrogenosome, but not in the G. intestinalis mitosome. These results provide further evidence that the Giardia mitosome is one of the most highly reduced mitochondrial homologues.

ABSTRACT Entamoeba histolytica , a microaerophilic protozoan parasite, possesses mitosomes. Mitosomes are mitochondrion-related organelles that have largely lost typical mitochondrial functions, such as those involved in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. The biological roles of Entamoeba mitosomes have been a long-standing enigma. We previously demonstrated that sulfate activation, which is not generally compartmentalized to mitochondria, is a major function of E. histolytica mitosomes. Sulfate activation cooperates with cytosolic enzymes, i.e., sulfotransferases (SULTs), for the synthesis of sulfolipids, one of which is cholesteryl sulfate. Notably, cholesteryl sulfate plays an important role in encystation, an essential process in the Entamoeba life cycle. These findings identified a biological role for Entamoeba mitosomes; however, they simultaneously raised a new issue concerning how the reactions of the pathway, separated by the mitosomal membranes, cooperate. Here, we demonstrated that the E. histolytica mitochondrial carrier family (EhMCF) has the capacity to exchange 3′-phosphoadenosine 5′-phosphosulfate (PAPS) with ATP. We also confirmed the cytosolic localization of all the E. histolytica SULTs, suggesting that in Entamoeba , PAPS, which is produced through mitosomal sulfate activation, is translocated to the cytosol and becomes a substrate for SULTs. In contrast, ATP, which is produced through cytosolic pathways, is translocated into the mitosomes and is a necessary substrate for sulfate activation. Taking our findings collectively, we suggest that EhMCF functions as a PAPS/ATP antiporter and plays a crucial role in linking the mitosomal sulfate activation pathway to cytosolic SULTs for the production of sulfolipids.

The work examines the effect of beta-lactam antibiotics (cefotaxime, ampicillin, augmentin) on the pathology of mitosis in the Allium–test. Research methods: Allium–test, cytogenetic analysis, statistical analysis. It was established that the use of individual tested beta-lactam antibiotics increases the percentage of pathological mitoses in the cell by 1.8–3.3 times compared with the value in the control. With the combined use of cefotaxime and Augmentin, synergism appeared, as a result, the value of mitosis pathology turned out to be at the level of the number in the control; minimally represented pathologies indicating damage to the mitotic apparatus. It was revealed that all three beta-lactam antibiotics tested had a pronounced statmokinetic effect. At the same time, with the joint use of cefotaxime and Augmentin, k-mitosis was not registered in dividing cells. Comparison of the spectrum of pathological mitoses in the variants of the experiment showed that the pathology ‘chromosome runaway/backlog’ in anaphase of mitosis dominates in all variants. An increase in the concentration of Augmentin and ampicillin caused the suppression of pathological processes in onion meristematic cells, a decrease in PM values was observed. An increase in Augmentin concentration does not affect the composition and spectrum of pathological mitoses; ampicillin has a decrease in the level of most of the recorded pathologies of mitosis.

Nuclei in the filamentous, multinucleated fungus Ashbya gossypii divide asynchronously. We have investigated what internal and external signals spatially direct mitosis within these hyphal cells. Mitoses are most common near cortical septin rings found at growing tips and branchpoints. In septin mutants, mitoses are no longer concentrated at branchpoints, suggesting that the septin rings function to locally promote mitosis near new branches. Similarly, cells lacking AgSwe1p kinase (a Wee1 homologue), AgHsl1p (a Nim1-related kinase), and AgMih1p phosphatase (the Cdc25 homologue that likely counteracts AgSwe1p activity) also have mitoses distributed randomly in the hyphae as opposed to at branchpoints. Surprisingly, however, no phosphorylation of the CDK tyrosine 18 residue, the conserved substrate of Swe1p kinases, was detected in normally growing cells. In contrast, abundant CDK tyrosine phosphorylation was apparent in starving cells, resulting in diminished nuclear density. This starvation-induced CDK phosphorylation is AgSwe1p dependent, and overexpressed AgSwe1p is sufficient to delay nuclei even in rich nutrient conditions. In starving cells lacking septins or AgSwe1p negative regulators, the nuclear density is further diminished compared with wild type. We have generated a model in which AgSwe1p may regulate mitosis in response to cell intrinsic morphogenesis cues and external nutrient availability in multinucleated cells.

Asbesto é um nome geral dado a seis tipos de fibras minerais encontradas naturalmente na crosta terrestre. Estas fibras vêm sendo exploradas industrialmente desde 1970, porém diversos trabalhadores expostos às fibras apresentaram patologias no trato respiratório, como fibroses e carcinomas. Alguns tipos de fibra foram banidos do mercado, porém o tipo de asbesto crisotila ainda pode ser comercializado na maioria dos países. Estudos in vivo e in vitro tentam elucidar as alterações causadas pela exposição à asbesto nos tecidos e nas células que possam estar relacionadas ao aparecimento de doenças, e foi verificado que a exposição às fibras leva a quebras na dupla fita de DNA, estresse oxidativo, formação de células micronucleadas e células aneuploides. O presente estudo teve como objetivo verificar a presença de alterações causadas em células em cultura expostas à crisotila por 48 h e recuperadas em meio livre de fibras por 48 h, 4 dias e 8 dias, além de observar por microscopia em tempo real divisões aberrantes após a exposição as fibras por 24 e 48h. Foram verificadas alterações que permaneceram na cultura mesmo após 8 dias de recuperação, quando não foram mais observadas fibras na cultura, como formação de células aneuploides, diminuição de frequência de células em G0/G1, aumento de células em G2/M e aumento relativo de células em metáfase quanto à porcentagem de células em fases mais tardias da fase M do ciclo. Já aumento da frequência de células micronucleadas ocorreu apenas nos períodos quando foram observadas fibras na cultura. Para análise da formação de mitoses multipolares e destinos destas células foram construídos vetores para expressão de tubulinas fusionadas a proteínas fluorescentes RFP e GFP, padronizadas as condições de transfecção e de aquisição de imagens para que as células tratadas com crisotila fossem observadas por time-lapse. Alguns destinos de mitoses multipolares causadas pelo tratamento com crisotila foram observados, como morte em metáfase, divisão gerando duas ou três células filhas, fusão de células durante a telófase e retenção em metáfase. Os dados sugerem também a indução da amplificação centrossômica, que parece ocorrer inicialmente em células interfásicas, e também devido à fusão de células.Asbestos is a general name given to six different fibrous silicate minerals found naturally in the earth\'s crust. These fibers are being exploited industrially since 1970, but several workers exposed to the fibers developed diseases in the respiratory tract, such as fibrosis and carcinomas. Some types of fiber were banished from the market, but the type of asbestos chrysotile can still be marketed in most countries. Studies in vivo and in vitro are trying to elucidate the asbestos effects in tissues and cells that could be related to the development of diseases, and these studies verified that asbestos exposure lead to DNA double strand breaks, oxidative stress, multinucleated and aneuploid cell formation. The present work aimed to verify the alterations in culture cells exposed to chrysotile for 48 h and recovered in fiber-free medium for 48 h, 4 days and 8 days, and also observe aberrant mitosis using time-lapse microscopy after 24 h and 48 h of chrysotile exposure. Some alterations were observed and remained in cell culture even after 8 days of recovery when chrysotile fibers were no longer observed - such as aneuploid cell formation, increased frequencies of G2/M cell, decreased frequencies of G1 cells, and increased frequencies of cells in early M phases as metaphase. The induction of micronuclei occurred only during the periods that fibers were observed in cell culture. For the analysis of multipolar mitosis formation and destinies of these cells after chrysotile treatment, DNA vectors for the expression of tubulins fused to fluorescent proteins (GFP and RFP) were constructed, and the conditions for cells transfection and image acquisition for time-lapse microscopy were established. The fate of some multipolar metaphases was observed: cell retention on metaphase, cell cycle progression generating two or three daughter cells, cell fusion during cytokinesis or during telophase after a multipolar anaphase, and cell death. The centrosome amplification was not observed during the M phase of cell cycle, and may occur in interphase, and also despite cell fusion.

Full textAbstract:
Durant la division cellulaire, la cellule subit des changements importants dans sa forme et son adhésion qui dépendent de l'efficacité du remodelage du cytosquelette d'actine. Ce processus est localement et temporellement régulé pour assurer le bon déroulement de la cytokinèse, l'étape finale de la division cellulaire. Il est contrôlé par les GTPases de la famille Rho via le remodelage du cytosquelette d'actine. Les Rho-GTPases fonctionnent comme des interrupteurs moléculaires, passant d'une forme au repos (liée au GDP) à une forme active (liée au GTP). La forme au repos interagit avec des facteurs d'échange, les GEFs (Guanine nucleotide Exchange Factors) qui déplacent le GDP et permet la fixation du GTP. Le retour à la forme inactive se fait par hydrolyse du GTP en GDP, stimulée par les protéines GAPs (GTPase Activating Proteins). RhoA est un régulateur positif de la cytokinèse, activée spécifiquement à l'équateur de la cellule, et qui promeut l'assemblage et la constriction de l'anneau d'actomyosine. En contraste, Rac1 a été proposée pour réguler négativement ce processus et doit être inactivée spécifiquement à l'équateur de la cellule pour le bon déroulement de la cytokinèse. Ainsi, une GAP de Rac1, MgcRacGAP, qui est localisé sur le fuseau central de microtubules, inactive Rac1 à l'équateur de la cellule. La déplétion de MgcRacGAP induit des défauts de cytokinèse qui peuvent être sauvés en co-déplétant Rac1. Cependant, le Rho-GEF activant Rac1 durant la division cellulaire n'a pas encore été identifié. Pour identifier un GEF régulant l'activité de Rac1 dans les cellules en division, nous avons réalisé une approche de « screening » par siRNA dans les cellules HeLa. Les Rac-GEFs sont déplétés par siRNA seul ou en combinaison avec un siRNA ciblant MgcRacGAP, dans le but d'identifier lesquels sont capables de sauver le nombre de cellules multinuclées induit par la déplétion de MgcRacGAP. De façon intéressante, la co-déplétion de MgcRacGAP et du Rho-GEF Trio, un GEF caractérisé principalement pour son rôle dans la croissance et le guidage axonal, entraîne une forte diminution du nombre de cellules multinuclées. Par la suite, nous démontrons que ce sauvetage du phénotype passe par la voie Trio-Rac1 en utilisant des mutants GEFs inactifs de Trio et un inhibiteur spécifique de l'activation de Rac1 par Trio. Ces résultats et le rôle de MgcRacGAP dans l'inactivation de Rac1 en cytokinèse, suggèrent que la déplétion de Trio pourrait sauver les défauts de cytokinèse induits par la déplétion de MgcRacGAP en diminuant l'activité de Rac1. Cela suggère aussi que Trio pourrait être un GEF de Rac1 dans les cellules en division. Pour directement tester si Trio pouvait fonctionner comme un GEF de Rac1 dans les cellules en division, la quantité de Rac1 a été mesurée par « pull-down assay » dans des cellules synchronisées en mitose. Comparé aux cellules traitées avec un siRNA contrôle, la déplétion de Trio réduit de moitié la quantité de Rac1 activée dans les cellules en mitose, démontrant que Trio active Rac1 en mitose. De plus, la déplétion de Trio induit des défauts de remodelage du cytosquelette d'actine dans les cellules en anaphase. De façon intéressante, la déplétion de Trio phénocopie la déplétion de Rac1 et de son effecteur Arp2/3, en accord avec un rôle de la voie Trio-Rac1 dans le contrôle du remodelage du cytosquelette d'actine dans les cellules en division. L'ensemble de ce travail a permis d'identifier pour la première fois un GEF contrôlant l'activité de Rac1 dans les cellules en division dont l'activité s'oppose à la fonction de MgcRacGAP en cytokinèse. Nous proposons ainsi un modèle dans lequel Trio contrôle l'activation de Rac1 et le remodelage du cytosquelette d'actine au cortex cellulaire dans les cellules en division. Dans notre modèle, MgcRacGAP s'oppose à l'action de Trio en inhibant localement et temporellement l'activation de Rac1 au plan de division, assurant ainsi le bon déroulement de la cytokinèseDuring cell division, cells undergo dramatic changes in shape and adhesion that depend on efficient actin cytoskeleton remodeling. This process has to be locally and temporally regulated to accurately ensure cytokinesis, the final stage of cell division. The small GTPases Rac1 and RhoA play an essential role in this process by controlling F-actin cytoskeleton remodeling. GTPases oscillate between an inactive, GDP-bound state and an active, GTP-bound state. They are activated by Guanine-nucleotide Exchange Factors (GEFs), which stimulate the GDP-to-GTP exchange, while they are turned off by GTPase-Activating Proteins (GAPs) which catalyse the hydrolysis of GTP. RhoA is a positive regulator of cytokinesis specifically activated at the division plane, which promotes the assembly and constriction of the actomyosin network. In contrast, Rac1 has been proposed to negatively regulate this process and has to be inactivated at the division plane for cytokinesis to occur properly. A central spindle localized GAP, MgcRacGAP, component of the centralspindlin complex, controls Rac1 inactivation at the cleavage plane. Depletion of Rac1 can suppress the cytokinesis failure induced by MgcRacGAP depletion. However, the Rho-GEF that activates Rac1 during cell division has not been identified yet. To identify a GEF regulating Rac1 activity in dividing cells, we performed a siRNA screening approach in HeLa cells. Rac-GEFs were depleted by siRNA alone or in combination with MgcRacGAP siRNAs, in order to identify the ones able to rescue the multinucleated cells induced by MgcRacGAP depletion. Importantly, co-depletion of MgcRacGAP and Rho-GEF Trio, a GEF characterized primarily for its role in axon outgrowth and guidance resulted in a strong decrease in the number of multinucleated cells. Then, we demonstrate that this rescue is mediated by the Trio-Rac1 pathway, using GEF dead mutants of Trio and a specific inhibitor of Rac1 activation by Trio. These data and the fact that MgcRacGAP was recently described to be essential for Rac1 inactivation in cytokinesis, suggest that Trio depletion could rescue the cytokinesis failure induced by MgcRacGAP depletion by decreasing Rac1 activity. It therefore suggests that Trio could be a GEF of Rac1 in dividing cells. To directly test if Trio could function as a GEF of Rac1 in dividing cells, the amount of activated Rac1 was monitored by pull down assay in synchronized mitotic cells. Compared to control siRNA-treated cells, Trio depletion reduced by half the amount of activated Rac1 in mitotic cells, showing that Trio activates Rac1 in mitosis. Strikingly, Trio depletion led to defects in F-actin cytoskeleton remodeling in anaphase cells. Indeed, the F-actin staining at the cortex was significantly reduced in Trio-depleted cells compared to control cells. Interestingly, Trio depletion phenocopied the depletion of Rac1, consistent with a role for the Trio-Rac1 pathway in controlling F-actin remodeling in dividing cells.Overall, this work identifies for the first time a GEF controlling Rac1 activation in dividing cells that counteracts MgcRacGAP function in cytokinesis. Based on these observations, we propose a model in which Trio functions as a GEF of Rac1 during cell division. Trio, which is expressed throughout the cell cycle, activates Rac1 to control F-actin cytoskeleton remodeling at the cell cortex of dividing cells. MgcRacGAP therefore counteracts the action of Trio by locally and temporally inhibiting Rac1 activation at the division plane, subsequently ensuring accurate cytokinesis

Full textAbstract:
Chez la drolosophile, des mutants de Greatwall présentent des défauts de condensation des chromosomes lors de la mitose. Plus tard, la même équipe a montré que chez le Xénope, Greatwall est nécessaire pour entrer en mitose. L'idée consistant à penser que puisque Greatwall ne permet plus l'entrée en mitose, il joue un rôle dans la boucle qui conduit à l'auto-amplification de MPF. En 2009, notre équipe a montré que Greatwall est réellement impliquée dans l'entrée en mitose, mais de façon indirecte par rapport à la boucle d'amplification de MPF, et cela en contrôlant l'activité de la phosphatase PP2A. Notre équipe a montré que lorsque l'on enlève PP2A, on peut sauver le phénotype de l'absence de Greatwall. Plus tard, il a été montré que la phosphorylation de Greatwall est nécessaire pour l'entrée en mitose. La phosphorylation de Greatwall sur la partie C-terminale est nécessaire pour activer Greatwall. Par conséquent, Greatwall doit être phosphorylé pour être actif. Une fois activé, Greatwall est capable de phosphoryler Arpp19 qui lie la phosphatase PP2AB55, et qui l'inhibe permettant ainsi de maintenir les phosphorylations des substrats mitotiques. Si cette voie de signalisation n'est pas fonctionnelle, la phosphatase PP2A va déphosphoryler tous les substrats mitotiques et la cellule n'entrera jamais en mitose. Greatwall doit être phosphorylé pour s'activer et pour entrer en mitose, mais on observe aussi qu'au moment de la sortie de mitose, il est déphosphorylé, et il doit être déphosphorylé pour s'inactiver. (On ne sait pas s'il est requisse pour sortir). Mon projet consiste à chercher la/les phosphatase(s) qui pourrait contrôler l'activité ou l'inactivation de Greatwall. Les questions que l'on se pose : Comment et par quelle(s) phosphatase(s) Greatwall est déphosphorylé, comment ces phosphoatases sont activées, quel est l'ordre d'activation de ces phosphatases ? Pour étudier comment Greatwall est déphosphorylé, il y a 2 sites majors : T194 et S875. Ces 2 sites sont nécessaires pour l'activité de Greatwall. Nous avons réalisé les 2 mutants T194A et S875A, et les traduit dans l'extrait interphasique d'œufs de Xénope, pour mesurer l'activité de kinase Greatwall. Pour déphosphoryler ces 2 sites, il y a 4 phosphatases principales comme candidats : Calcineurine, Fcp1, PP1, PP2AThe establishment of mitosis requires phosphorylaton of several substrates induced by kinases. Cdk1-cyclin B and Greatwall kinases are both necessary for the entry into mitosis. Cdk1-cyclin B complex phosphorylates many substrates and at the same time Greatwall phosphorylates Arpp19 which binds PP2AB55 phosphatase and inhibits it. PP2AB55 has an important role in the dephosphorylation of Cdk1-cyclin B mitotic substrates.In my laboratory, we found that after Greatwall depletion, either in Xenopus egg extracts or in human cells, PP2A is no longer inhibited and cells exit mitosis. Since activation of Greatwall requires its phosphorylation in the c-terminal part and in the T-loop site, we suppose that mitosis exit require dephosphorylation of Greatwall. So these dephosphorylations could be involved for Greatwall inactivation. Several phosphatases are candidates for this process: Fcp1, PP1, PP2A and Calcineurin. My project proposes to determine the involvement of these four phosphatases in Xenopus egg extracts after depletion and overexpression of these four proteins

Full textAbstract:
Les microtubules (MT) sont des polymères dynamiques ancrés par leurs extrémités moins aux centres de nucléation alors que leurs extrémités plus, explorent le cytoplasme, jusqu’à être stabilisées. Cette capture des extrémités permet l’organisation du réseau des MT. Les +TIP sont un groupe de protéines qui s’associent aux bouts plus des MT. EB1 est une protéine centrale dans le réseau des +TIP qui régule la dynamique des MT et leur interaction avec les structures d’ancrage des extrémités plus. Par protéomique ciblée, nous avons caractérisé l’interactome d’EB1, et mis en évidence un groupe de protéines, précédemment associées aux centres de nucléation incluant AKAP9, une protéine échafaudage pour les protéines kinases A (PKA), la protéine de la matrice péricentriolaire CDK5RAP2, et une isoforme courte de la myomégaline que nous avons appelé SMYLE (Short MYomegalin Like EB1 binding protein). La cartographie moléculaire a permis de montrer que ces protéines formaient un complexe organisé de manière hiérarchique. Nous avons observé que l’association transitoire deLa protéine SMYLE (Short MYomegalin Like EB1 binding protein )dans l'organisation d'un complexe centrosomal, la régulation de la nucléation et la stabilisation des microtubules : conséquences sur la migration et la division des cellules cancéreuses avec les MT néo-nucléés au centrosome favorisait la nucléation et l’acétylation des MT. De manière notable, la déplétion de SMYLE aboutissait à un défaut de nucléation, mais aussi de la capture corticale des MT. Ces défauts dans l’organisation des MT étaient associés à une baisse notable de la migration des cellules de carcinome mammaire et à des anomalies mitotiques. Nos résultats nous permettent de proposer que SMYLE fait partie d’un complexe centrosomale, qui favorise l’assemblage ou la stabilité des microtubules néo-nucléés, contribuant ainsi à des processus majeurs pour le développement tumoralMicrotubules (MT) are dynamic polymers anchored by their minus ends at the MT organizing centers while their highly dynamic plus end explores the cytoplasm until it get stabilized. This plus end capture allows the organization of the MT network. +TIPs are a group of proteins that share the commonality to associate either directly or indirectly to MT plus ends. EB1 is a central protein of the +TIP network that regulates MT dynamics and their interactions with plus end anchoring structures. Using targeted proteomics, we have characterized the EB1 interactome and revealed a set of protein previously shown to associate with the nucleating centers that included AKAP9 an anchoring protein for protein kinase A (PKA), the pericentriolar matrix protein CDK5RAP2 and a short Myomegalin isoform that we named SMYLE (Short MYomegalin Like EB1 binding protein). Molecular mapping revealed that the proteins formed a hierarchically organized complex. We have observed that the transient association of SMYLE to the newly nucleated MTs at the centrosome favored the nucleation and acetylation. Interestingly, SMYLE depletion led to MT nucleation defects, but also a disruption of cortical MT capture. These defects in the MT network were associated with a steep fall in the migratory potential of breast cancer cells and mitotic abnormalities. Our results allow proposing that SMYLE belongs to centrosomal supramolecular complex that favors the assembly and stability of newly nucleated MTs, thus contributing to major processes in tumor development

Full textAbstract:
Depuis sa découverte en 1994, la protéine kinase Haspine fait l’objet d’un intérêt scientifique croissant en raison de son rôle clé dans la mitose. Elle est impliquée dans localisation et l’activation spatio-temporel d’Aurora B en créant un site d’ancrage (phosphorylation de l’Histone H3 sur la Thr3) sur les chromosomes et notamment aux centromères en première partie de mitose. Une perte d’activité de l’Haspine s’accompagne irrémédiablement d’erreurs dans l'alignement des chromosomes, la cohésion centromérique et l'intégrité des fuseaux mitotiques. Ces fonctions en fait une cible thérapeutique potentielle contre le cancer. Les objectifs de cette thèse ont été de mieux comprendre les fonctions de cette protéine dans la cellule en mitose, et parallèlement, de caractériser de nouveaux inhibiteurs spécifiques de cette kinase. Nous avons montré que l'intégrité des centrosomes et du fuseau mitotique dépend de l'activité kinase de l’Haspine de façon indépendante de l’activité d’Aurora B. De plus, nous montrons que l’Haspine agit comme un régulateur négatif de la nucléation des microtubules aux centrosomes ainsi que sur les chromosomes. Pour mieux comprendre le rôle de Haspine dans la nucléation des microtubules, nous avons cherché de nouveaux substrats à l'aide d'une puce protéique. Nous avons identifié plusieurs candidats parmi lesquels l’effecteur de nucléation, la kinase Nima Nek9. Nous avons confirmé que Nek9 est un substrat de l’Haspine in vitro. De plus, nos résultats ont montré que la déplétion de Nek9 sauve en partie le phénotype de déplétion de l’Haspine, ce qui suggère que l’Haspine a un rôle antagoniste de la fonction centrosomale de Nek9. L’ensemble de nos résultats démontre une nouvelle fonction de l’Haspine de son implication dans la régulation des voies de signalisation de la nucléation des microtubules. En parallèle, nous avons caractérisé une nouvelle série de petites molécules inhibitrices de Haspine, des imidazopyridines dérivées du CHR-6494. Nos composés hits montrent une bonne activité inhibitrice de l’Haspine et une sélectivité accrue. Ils ont l’avantage de ne pas provoquer un arrêt du cycle cellulaire en G2/M comme le CHR-6494 et n’inhibent pas la CDK1. Ils s’avèrent être de précieux outils d’études des fonctions de l’Haspine et une base structurale pour la synthèse d’outils thérapeutiques potentielsSince its discovery in 1994, Haspin protein kinase has been of growing scientific interest due to its key role in mitosis. It is involved in spatio-temporal localization and activation of Aurora B kinase by creating a specific anchoring site (phosphorylation of Histone H3 on Thr3) on chromosomes and specifically at centromers during early mitosis. Loss of Haspin activity is irremediably accompanied by chromosome alignment errors, centromeric cohesion and mitotic spindle defects. Its essential mitotic functions make it a potential therapeutic target for cancer. The objectives of this thesis were to better understand the functions of Haspin in mitosis, and at the same time, to characterize new specific inhibitors. We have shown that centrosome and mitotic spindle integrity depends on Haspin kinase activity independently of Aurora B activity. In addition, we show that Haspin acts as a negative regulator microtubule nucleation both at centrosomes and on chromosomes. To better understand Haspin's role in microtubule nucleation we looked for new substrates using protein chips. We have identified several candidates including the Nima kinase nucleation effector, Nek9. We confirmed that Nek9 is an in vitro Haspin substrate. In addition, our results showed that Nek9 depletion partly saves the Haspin depletion phenotype, suggesting that Haspin antagonizes Nek9 nucleation function. All of our results demonstrate a new Haspin function in the regulation of microtubule nucleation signaling pathway. At the same time, we have characterized a new series of small inhibitory molecules of Haspin, imidazopyridines derived from CHR-6494. Our hit compounds showed good Haspin inhibitory activity and increased selectivity. Unlike CHR-6494, they have the advantages of not causing cell cycle arrest in G2/M through CDK1 inhibition. They prove to be valuable tools for Haspin function studies and form a strong structural basis for the development of potential therapeutic drugs

Full textAbstract:
HNF1beta est un facteur de transcription homeobox, dont les mutations sont fréquemment rencontrées chez des patients atteints d’anomalies congénitales du rein et du tractus urinaire (Congenital Abnomalities of the Kidney and the Urogenital Tract, CAKUT). HNF1beta est également impliqué dans le diabète de type Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young 5 (MODY5). Le laboratoire d’accueil a démontré que HNF1beta était impliqué dans un mécanisme épigénétique, le Bookmarking, nécessaire à la réexpression post-mitotique de ses gènes cibles. En particulier, des expériences de vidéo-microscopie ont montré que la partie N-terminale de HNF1beta, contenant le domaine de liaison à l’ADN, en fusion avec la GFP (HNF1beta -GFP) est liée à la chromatine pendant la mitose. L’objectif de ma thèse était de caractériser les modalités biochimiques d’interaction de HNF1beta avec la chromatine mitotique. Nous avons mis en évidence le fait que la capacité de liaison à l’ADN est indispensable à la localisation mitotique de HNF1beta. En effet, la délétion de la troisième hélice alpha de l’homéo-domaine, responsable de l’interaction avec le grand sillon de l’ADN, entraîne la dissociation de la chromatine de HNF1beta pendant la mitose. Nous avons ensuite étudié l’effet de plusieurs mutations identifiées chez des patients MODY sur la localisation mitotique de HNF1beta. Nos résultats ont montré que certaines mutations faux-sens sont capables d’empêcher la fixation de la chromatine mitotique. Parmi ces mutations, certaines manifestent un phénotype dépendant de la température. Par exemple, à une température permissive, inférieure à 30°C, les mutations P256S et C273Y présentent une localisation mitotique normale. En revanche, à 37°C pour P256S et à 39°C pour le mutant C273Y, les protéines sont complètement dissociées, alors que dans toutes ces conditions de température, l’association de la protéine sauvage avec la chromatine mitotique n’est pas affectée. A température permissive (4°C), nous avons montré par retard sur gel (Electophoresis Mobility Shift Assay EMSA) que les mutants lient l’ADN avec un Kd apparent similaire à celui de la protéine sauvage. Par contre, à température restrictive, les mutants présentent des comportements différents. En effet, P256S perd sa capacité de liaison à l’ADN (de façon réversible), tandis que C273Y continue à lier l’ADN avec une affinité similaire à celui de la protéine sauvage. Le caractère thermosensible des mutants de HNF1beta nous a permis d’étudier les modalités de son recrutement sur la chromatine mitotique. Nos résultats ont montré que l’association des protéines à la chromatine mitotique présente une nature très dynamique. En effet, nous avons observé qu’une diminution rapide de température détermine la relocalisation mitotique réversible de la protéine, dans un délai de quelques secondes. Nous avons pu montrer que la relocalisation mitotique de HNF1beta induit par la température était affectée par une déplétion d’énergie, ainsi que par l’action d’un inhibiteur spécifique de l’importine-β (importazole). Nous avons enfin mis en évidence par immuno-précipitation de chromatine (ChIP) que la liaison de HNF1beta à la chromatine mitotique est séquence-spécifique. Nos résultats suggèrent que le recrutement de HNF1beta à la chromatine mitotique est énergie-dépendante, et nécessite le bon fonctionnement du système de transport lié à l’importine-beta. Mes résultats suggèrent que des mutations trouvées chez des patients MODY3 et MODY5 inactivent ou affaiblissent la capacité de HNF1beta de remplir son activité de BookmarkingHNF1beta is a POU transcription factor that is frequently mutated in patients that suffer from diabetes and renal cystic dysplasia. This protein has the peculiar ability to bind mitotic chromosomes and behave as a gene bookmarking. Here we show that the capacity of HNF1beta to bind to DNA plays an essential role for mitotic binding. A close homologue, HNF1alpha, shares the ability of HNF1beta to bind to mitotic chromosomes, and several MODY mutations (e.g P256S, V265L and C273Y) affect the ability of the protein to localize to mitotic chromatin. Interestingly, the phenotype induced by these mutations is very rapidly rescued by sudden temperature shifts. Temperature-sensitivity is probably linked to a conformational change that prevents DNA binding ability of P256S and V265L mutants at 37°C. Interestingly, the mitotic relocalization of these mutants induced by temperature shift was sensitive to energy depletion and importazole, suggesting an active mechanism involving the importin-beta system. Interestingly, C273Y mutant exhibited a significantly mitotic dispersion that is not correlated with any DNA or interphase chromatin binding defect, indicating that DNA binding function is necessary but not sufficient to accomplish bookmarking

Full textAbstract:
Au cours de la mitose, la ségrégation des chromatides, la partition du matériel cytoplasmique entre cellules filles et leur position relative se fait selon un plan qui est préfiguré par la plaque métaphasique. Ainsi, l'orientation de ce plan est un processus crucial pour le contrôle du destin des cellules, pour la morphogenèse durant l'embryogenèse et pour l'homéostasie tissulaire. Jusqu'à aujourd'hui, les mécanismes intrinsèques impliqués dans le positionnement du plan de division ont reçu beaucoup d'attention. En revanche, peu d'études ont exploré l'implication de signaux extracellulaires dans l'orientation du plan de division. Pourtant, l'axe des divisions cellulaires dont la position est souvent stéréotypée est largement associé aux axes de polarités du tissu. Au cours de ma thèse, je me suis demandé si des signaux extracellulaires capables de délivrer des informations de position spatiale aux cellules dans le cadre de leur migration, de leur différenciation morphologique, ou de leur polarisation, pouvaient influencer l'orientation des divisions cellulaires. En particulier, je me suis intéressée aux facteurs impliqués dans le guidage axonal à travers l'étude des mitoses des progéniteurs neuraux chez l'embryon de souris. Dans la moelle épinière en développement, les progéniteurs neuraux effectuent leur division au contact du canal central, lequel renferme le liquide céphalo-rachidien (LCR), une source de nombreux facteurs extracellulaires comme les morphogènes. Nous avons montré que la présence de molécules du LCR était nécessaire pour une orientation appropriée du plan de divisions des progéniteurs neuraux localisés au contact du canal central. Priver les progéniteurs neuraux de LCR par l'ouverture du tube neural ou provoquer génétiquement l'obstruction du canal central affecte les proportions de divisions planaires et obliques. Nous avons identifié la protéine Sémaphorine 3B, secrétée par les cellules de la plaque du plancher et les plexus choroïdes, comme un signal extrinsèque contrôlant l'orientation des divisions des progéniteurs neuraux dans la moelle épinière. L'invalidation génétique de Sema3B chez la souris phénocopie la perte d'accès au LCR des progéniteurs. Une application exogène de Sema3B sur des embryons dont le tube neural a été ouvert compense la déficience de LCR. Nous avons pu montrer que Sema3B se lie à ses récepteurs Neuropilines à la surface apicale des progéniteurs mitotiques et agit sur l'architecture des microtubules via l'activation de la voie GSK3/CRMP2, voie initialement mise en évidence dans le contexte du guidage axonal. Afin d'identifier de nouveaux facteurs influençant le positionnement du fuseau mitotique en réponse à ce facteur de guidage, une analyse transcriptomique des progéniteurs neuraux des mutants Sema3B-/- a été réalisée et des gènes candidats dérégulés en contexte d'invalidation de Sema3B ont été considérés. Durant la seconde partie de ma thèse, j'ai exploré l'implication du gène Norbin/Neurochondrin. De manière intéressante, le knock- down de Norbin dans les cellules HeLa altère l'orientation du fuseau mitotique. L'ensemble de ces travaux révèle donc la contribution d'une large famille de signaux topographiques jusqu'à présent inexplorée, dans l'orientation des divisions cellulaires et ouvre un large champ d'investigation passionnant concernant leur action moléculaire et cellulaire dans la neurogenèse et la morphogenèseDuring development, the orientation of cell division is crucial to correctly organize andshape tissues and organs and also to generate cellular diversity. As cell mitosis proceeds, thesegregation of chromatids and cytoplasmic material occurs along a division axis. Itsorientation largely determines the relative position of daughter cells and the partition ofmother cell subcellular domain between them. The orientation of the cell division isprefigured by the position of a complex microtubule-based scaffold, the mitotic spindle.Until now, the intrinsic molecular machinery positioning the mitotic spindle and its couplingto cell polarities have been study in details. In contrast, the contribution of extracellularsignals to cell division orientation is less characterised. My research shows that these signalsin the CSF contribute to the orientation of cell division in neural progenitors. Removal theCSF cues by opening the neural tube or by genetic engineering affects the proportion ofplanar and oblique divisions. We identified Semaphorin 3B (Sema3B), released from thefloor plate and the nascent choroid plexus, as an important actor in this extrinsic control ofprogenitor division. Knockout of Sema3B phenocopies the loss of progenitor access to CSF.Delivery of exogenous Sema3B to progenitors in living embryos compensates this deficiency.We showed that Sema3B binds to Neuropilin receptors at the apical surface of mitoticprogenitors and exerts its effect through GSK3b activation and subsequent inhibition of themicrotubule stabilizer CRMP2. Thus extrinsic signaling mediated by Semaphorins directs theorientation of progenitor division in neurogenic zones.In order to identify new factors implicated in Sema3B-dependant mitotic spindleposition, we performed a transcriptomic analysis of Sema3B -/- neural progenitors. Severalderegulated candidate genes were considered. In the second part of my thesis, I focus onone of this, Norbin/Neurochondrin. Interestingly, the invalidation of Norbin/Neurochondrinalters the orientation of the mitotic spindle in HeLa cells.My PhD work reveals the contribution of a large family of topographic cues known tofunction in axon guidance has a novel role in the orientation of cell division

Full textAbstract:
Au cours de la division cellulaire, l'information génétique doit être transmise de façon précise et identique de la cellule mère aux cellules filles. Le génome est répliqué au cours de la phase S tandis que la distribution des deux copies entre les cellules filles se fait au cours de la mitose. L'initiation et le maintien de la mitose nécessite un équilibre contrôlé entre les activités des kinases et des phosphatases. La protéine kinase Greatwall est requise pour l'entrée et le maintien de la mitose à travers l'inhibition de la PP2A, la principale phosphatase qui déphosphoryle les substrats du complexe Cdk1-cycline B. Au cours de ce travail, nous avons entrepris l'étude structure/fonction de la protéine kinase Greatwall qui nous a permis de caractériser ses mécanismes d'activation. Nos résultats montrent que Greatwall appartient à la famille des AGC kinases mais qu'elle présente la particularité d'être contrôlée par des mécanismes qui lui sont propres: l'activation de la protéine, qui se fait en deux étapes, est différente de celle décrite pour les autres membres de cette famille de kinases. Par la suite, nous avons identifié deux substrats de la protéine kinase Greatwall, Arpp19 (cAMP-Regulated Phosphoprotein 19) et l'alpha-Endosulfine (ENSA). Nous avons montré qu'une fois phosphorylées par Greatwall, ces deux protéines s'associent à la PP2A et inhibent cette phosphatase. Malgré le fait que ces deux substrats soient capables d'inhiber la PP2A, seul Arpp19 endogène est responsable de l'inhibition de la phosphatase pour promouvoir l'entrée en mitose dans le modèle des extraits d'ovocytes de xénope. Nous nous intéressons à présent à l'étude du rôle d'ENSADuring cell division, genetic information must be transmitted from the mother cell to the daughter cell in an accurate and identical way. During the S phase the genome is replicated while an equal distribution of two copies of DNA between the daughter cells is made during mitosis. Initiation and maintenance of mitosis require a controlled balance between kinase and phosphatase activities. Greatwall kinase is essential for mitotic entry and maintenance through the inhibition of PP2A, the main phosphatase that dephosphorylates Cdk1/cycline B mitotic substrates. Here we investigate the mechanisms regulating Greatwall. Our results show that Greatwall is a member of the AGC family of kinases that appears to be regulated by a unique two-step mechanism that differs from the other members of this family. Furthermore we identified Arpp19 (cAMP-Regulated Phosphoprotein 19) and alpha-Endosulfine (ENSA) as two substrates of Greatwall that, when phosphorylated by this kinase, associate with and inhibit PP2A. Despite the fact that these two substrates are able to inhibit PP2A, only endogenous Arpp19 is responsible for the phosphatase inhibition at mitotic entry in xenopus egg extratcs. Roles of ENSA are currently under investigation

Full textAbstract:
Le variant d'histone CENP-A est le facteur responsable de la détermination épigéné- tique du centromère. Il permet le recrutement de nombreuses protéines centromériques, et constitue ainsi la brique fondatrice du kinétochore. Il possède un domaine amino-terminal non structuré dont la fonction précise reste encore à élucider, bien qu'il soit déjà établi chez certaines espèces que ce domaine est requis pour le bon fonctionnement du cen- tromère et conséquemment le bon déroulement de la mitose. Nous avons construit des lignées cellulaires humaines exprimant stablement diverses formes mutantes de CENP-A, qui nous ont permis de réaliser des expériences de pseudogénétique en supprimant l'ex- pression de la protéine CENP-A endogène. Nous observons une augmentation drastique du taux de défauts de ségrégation des chromosomes et de cellules plurinucléées dans des cellules exprimant uniquement le domaine globulaire de CENP-A, ce qui est en accord avec les données de la littérature et confirme l'importance du domaine amino-terminal. Un phénotype similaire est observé dans des cellules exprimant une protéine CENP-A entière mais dont le domaine amino-terminal n'est pas phosphorylable. Nos résultats montrent l'implication de la phosphorylation de la sérine de CENP-A dans le bon déroulement de la mitose, et suggèrent que la fonction mitotique du domaine amino-terminal est centrée sur cette seule phosphorylationThe histone variant CENP-A is the epigenetic factor responsible for centromere deter- mination. It allows the recruitment of a handful of centromeric proteins, and thus acts as the primary foundation for the kinetochore. It comprises an unstructured amino-terminal domain to which no precise function has yet been assigned, although it is established in some species that the mere presence of that domain is required for proper centromere func- tion and thus successful completion of mitosis. We have established several human cell lines stably expressing GFP-tagged CENP-A constructs, allowing us to perform pseudoge- netic experiments by siRNA-mediated silencing of the endogenous CENP-A. Our results show a dramatic increase of mitotic defects and plurinuclear cells when cells express only the globular domain of CENP-A; this is in accordance with the litterature and confirms the importance of the amino-terminal tail. More importantly, a similar increase of mitotic defects is observed when cells express a full-length, but non-phosphatable, CENP-A. Our results show the involvement of the phosphatable serine 7 of CENP-A in the successful completion of mitosis, and may suggest that the role of the whole amino-terminal tail of CENP-A could be reduced to this single phosphorylation event

Full textAbstract:
El tema ambiental en Colombia ha ocupado un renglón relevante en el país desde hace varias décadas, situación que ha permeado a la comunidad académica. Esto ha resultado en la creación de programas cuya afinidad ha generado confusión sobre el alcance de sus profesionales y la distancia disciplinar entre los mismos. Con el propósito de abordar este y otros temas, desde la Cadena Ambiental de la Escuela de Ciencias Agrícolas, Pecuarias y del Medio Ambiente – ECAPMA, se desarrolló un conversatorio titulado “Mitos y realidades de la dimensión ambiental” que reunió a seis (6) expertos de las áreas de la Ingeniería Ambiental y Administración Ambiental. La discusión con los panelistas giró en torno a tres situaciones puntuales relacionadas con la dimensión ambiental y el quehacer propio de sus disciplinas. A partir de las opiniones expresadas, e información secundaría se presenta en este documento un análisis sobre los resultados obtenidos en el foro.
