Structure of cohesin subcomplex pinpoints direct shugoshin-Wapl ...
2014年8月31日 · Our results establish a competition between Sgo1 and Wapl in cohesin binding and implicate a role for this direct antagonism in centromeric cohesion protection. We coexpressed human SA2 and the...
Phosphorylation-enabled binding of SGO1–PP2A to cohesin …
2012年12月16日 · Timely dissolution of sister-chromatid cohesion in mitosis ensures accurate chromosome segregation to guard against aneuploidy and tumorigenesis. The complex of shugoshin and protein phosphatase 2A...
Structural basis of centromeric cohesion protection
2023年4月20日 · SGO1 protects centromeric cohesin by recruiting PP2A to counteract cohesin phosphorylation by mitotic kinases, and SGO1 also directly competes with WAPL for cohesin binding 15,16,17,18.
Molecular mechanism and functional significance of Wapl ... - PNAS
The two-tier modular regulation of Wapl interaction with Scc1-SA2 ensures that Wapl is dominant over Sgo1, as well as the FDF motif-containing inner kinetochore protein CENP-U , for binding Scc1-SA2, thereby enabling removal of the bulk of Cohesin from chromosome arms to ensure precise chromosome segregation.
生研院汪方炜实验室在PNAS发文揭示黏连蛋白功能的重要调控机制
2024年8月23日 · 本项研究利用一系列体内外蛋白互作实验,以及基于AlphaFold2的人工智能蛋白质结构分析,发现Wapl分别通过FGF基序和YNARHWN基序结合黏连蛋白核心亚基Scc1与SA2互作界面的不同区域(图3)。 破坏FGF基序或 YNARHWN基序与Scc1-SA2界面的结合,仅部分减弱Wapl与Scc1-SA2界面的结合,并部分削弱Wapl从染色体上移除黏连蛋白的能力。...
Structure of the human cohesin inhibitor Wapl | PNAS
2013年6月17日 · Wapl inactivation alleviates both the requirement for sororin in cohesion establishment in S phase and the need for Sgo1–PP2A in centromeric cohesion protection in mitosis (6, 7, 15, 24). Thus, Wapl is a critical negative regulator of cohesin.
WAPL-Mediated Removal of Cohesin Protects against
2013年10月21日 · Stable WAPL depletion arrests cells in a p53-dependent manner but causes p53-deficient cells to become highly aneuploid. Our data show that the WAPL-dependent prophase pathway is essential for proper chromosome segregation and is crucial to maintain genomic integrity.
Releasing cohesin from chromosome arms in early mitosis ... - PubMed
2009年9月15日 · We propose that Wapl and Pds5 directly modulate conformational changes of cohesin to make it competent for dissociation from chromatin during prophase. Evidence is also presented that Sgo1 plays a hitherto underappreciated role in stabilizing cohesin along chromosome arms, which is antagonized by the mitotic kinases polo-like kinsase (Plk1) and ...
Structure of cohesin subcomplex pinpoints direct shugoshin-Wapl ...
During prophase, mitotic kinases phosphorylate cohesin and its protector sororin, triggering Wapl-dependent cohesin release from chromosome arms. The shugoshin (Sgo1)-PP2A complex protects centromeric cohesin until its cleavage by separase at anaphase onset. Here, we report the crystal structure of a human cohesin subcomplex comprising SA2 and ...
【前沿进展】PNAS丨汪方炜/颜海燕/张龙合作揭示黏连蛋白功能的 …
2024年8月12日 · 黏连蛋白环的DNA出口(即Smc3-Scc1互作界面)的开放依赖于黏连蛋白释放因子Wapl【2-4】。 一个长期悬而未决的科学问题是,Wapl如何打开黏连蛋白环的DNA出口进而调控黏连蛋白功能,而解决这个问题的关键在于探明Wapl如何结合黏连蛋白复合体的核心亚基。
