Résumé :

alpha-, beta-, and gamma-tubulins are evolutionarily highly conserved members of the tubulin gene superfamily. While the abundant members, alpha- and beta-tubulins, constitute the building blocks of cellular microtubule polymers, gamma-tubulin is a low abundance protein which localized to the pericentriolar material and may play a role in microtubule assembly. To test whether gamma-tubulin mediates the nucleation of microtubule assembly in vivo, and co-assembles with alpha- and beta-tubulins into microtubules or self-assembles into macro-molecular structures, we experimentally elevated the exp

Microtubules are formed by α- and β-tubulin heterodimers nucleated with γ-tubulin. Tubulins are conserved eukaryotic proteins. Previously, it was shown that microtubules are involved in diatom silica frustule morphogenesis. Diatom frustules are varied, and their morphology is species-specific. Despite the attractiveness of the problem of elucidating the molecular mechanisms of genetically programmed morphogenesis, the structure and evolution of diatom tubulins have not been studied previously.

Cells of eukaryotic organisms exhibit microtubules with various functions during the different developmental stages. The identification of multiple forms of alpha- and beta-tubulins had raised the question of their possible physiological roles. In the myxomycete Physarum polycephalum a complex polymorphism for alpha- and beta-tubulins has been correlated with a specific developmental expression pattern. Here, we have investigated the potential heterogeneity of gamma-tubulin in this organism. A single gene, with 3 introns and 4 exons, and a single mRNA coding for gamma-tubulin were detected. Th

There is a growing amount of evidence of γ-tubulin functions besides microtubule nucleation in transcription, DNA damage response, chromatin remodeling, and on its interactions with tumor suppressors.

Unexpectedly, but in line with its sequence, beta-tubulin also occurs with and without its carboxy-terminal tyrosine.

Background: Eukaryotic α- and β-tubulin proteins stand out among tubulin-like proteins by their ability to form hollow dynamically unstable microtubules (MT) with 13 protofilaments. Microtubules are part of the cell cytoskeleton and play a key role in chromosome division in mitosis. A considerable amount of anticancer drugs works on microtubules level breaking its dynamic. But the mechanism of dynamic instability and works of these drugs remains unknown. Bacteria of the genus Prostecobacter have unique bacterial tubulins (BtubA/B) capable to form hollow dynamically unstable 5 protofilament MTs

Dynamic instability is a critical property of microtubules (MTs). By regulating the rate of tubulin polymerization and depolymerization, cells organize the MT cytoskeleton to accommodate their specific functions. Among many processes, posttranslational modifications of tubulin are implicated in regulating MT functions. Here we report a novel tubulin acetylation catalyzed by acetyltransferase San at lysine 252 (K252) of β-tubulin. This acetylation, which is also detected in vivo, is added to soluble tubulin heterodimers but not tubulins in MTs. The acetylation-mimicking K252A/Q mutants were inc

However, it remains unclear where polyglutamylated tubulin localizes precisely within the axoneme and how tubulin polyglutamylation affects flagellar motility. In this study, we identified the three-dimensional localization of the polyglutamylated tubulin in Chlamydomonas flagella using antibody labeling and cryo–electron tomography. Polyglutamylated tubulins specifically located in close proximity to a microt

Résumé :

Microtubules are key players in several stages of the cell cycle and are also involved in the transportation of cellular organelles. Microtubules are polymerized by α/β tubulin dimers with a highly dynamic feature, especially at the plus ends of the microtubules. Therefore, understanding the interactions among tubulins is crucial for characterizing microtubule dynamics. Studying microtubule dynamics can help researchers make advances in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. In this study, we utilize a series of computational approaches to study the electrostatic interactions

Individual beta-tubulin isoforms in developing mouse brain were characterized using immunoblotting, after preceding high-resolution isoelectric focusing, with monoclonal antibodies against different structural regions of beta-tubulin. Some of the antibodies reacted with a limited number of tubulin isoforms in all stages of brain development and in HeLa cells. The epitope for the TU-14 antibody was located in the isotype-defining domain and was present on the beta-tubulin isotypes of classes I, II and IV, but absent on the neuron-specific class-III isotype.

Strains of Aspergillus containing the benA22 mutation are resistant to benomyl for vegetative growth but do not produce conidia. To test whether conidiation involved an additional benomyl-sensitive tubulin (i.e., was mediated by a tubulin other than the tubulins coded for by the benA locus), a collection of mutants was produced that formed conidia in the presence of benomyl, i.e., were conidiation-resistant (CR-) mutants. We analyzed the tubulins of these CR- mutants using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and found that the mutants lacked one species of beta-tubulin (designated beta 3). We

γ-Tubulin is necessary for nucleation and polar orientation of microtubules in vivo. The molecular mechanism of microtubule nucleation by γ-tubulin and the regulation of this process are not fully understood. Here we show that there are two γ-tubulin forms in the brain that are present in complexes of various sizes. Large complexes tend to dissociate in the presence of a high salt concentration. Both γ-tubulins co-polymerized with tubulin dimers, and multiple γ-tubulin bands were identified in microtubule protein preparations under conditions of non-denaturing electrophoresis.

Microtubules are cytoskeletal structures critical for mitosis, cell motility, and protein and organelle transport and are a validated target for anticancer drugs. However, how tubulins are regulated and recruited to support these distinct cellular processes is incompletely understood. Posttranslational modifications of tubulins are proposed to regulate microtubule function and dynamics. Although many of these modifications have been investigated, only one prior study reports tubulin methylation and an enzyme responsible for this methylation.

The γ-tubulin small complex (γ-TuSC) is an evolutionarily conserved heterotetramer essential for microtubule nucleation. We have determined the structure of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae γ-TuSC at 25-Å resolution by electron microscopy. γ-TuSC is Y-shaped, with an elongated body connected to two arms. Gold labeling showed that the two γ-tubulins are located in lobes at the ends of the arms, and the relative orientations of the other γ-TuSC components were determined by in vivo FRET. The structures of different subpopulations of γ-TuSC indicate flexibility in the connection between a mobile arm

Centrobin is a daughter centriole protein that is essential for centrosome duplication. However, the molecular mechanism by which centrobin functions during centriole duplication remains undefined. In this study, we show that centrobin interacts with tubulin directly, and centrobin–tubulin interaction is pivotal for the function of centrobin during centriole duplication. We found that centrobin is recruited to the centriole biogenesis site via its interaction with tubulins during the early stage of centriole biogenesis, and its recruitment is dependent on hSAS-6 but not centrosomal P4.1–associ

Résumé :

Diversity in cytoskeleton organization and function may be achieved through variations in primary sequence of tubulin isotypes. Recently, isotype functional diversity has been linked to a “tubulin code” in which the C-terminal tail, a region of substantial sequence divergence between isotypes, specifies interactions with microtubule-associated proteins. However, it is not known whether residue changes in this region alter microtubule dynamic instability. Here, we examine recombinant tubulin with human β isotype IIB and characterize polymerization dynamics. Microtubules with βIIB have catastrop

Mutations responsible for different classes of functional phenotypes are distributed throughout the beta 2-tubulin molecule. There is a telling correlation between the degree of phylogenetic conservation of the altered residues and the number of different microtubule categories disrupted by the lesions. The majority of lesions occur at positions that are evolutionarily highly conserved in all beta-tubulins; these lesi
