Saccharomyces cerevisiae MPS2Encodes a Membrane Protein Localized at the Spindle Pole Body and the Nuclear Envelope

Abstract: The MPS2 (monopolar spindle two) gene is one of several genes required for the proper execution of spindle pole body (SPB) duplication in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (). We report here that the MPS2 gene encodes an essential 44-kDa protein with two putative coiled-coil regions and a hydrophobic sequence. Although MPS2 is required for normal mitotic growth, some null strains can survive; these survivors exhibit slow growth and abnormal ploidy. The MPS2 protein was tagged with nine copies of the m… Show more

“…Localization was observed in wild-type cells in the absence or the presence of nocodazole and in an mps2-2 mutant at the permissive and restrictive temperatures. The mps2-2 mutant is unable to insert a duplicated SPB into the nuclear envelope and thus gives rise to cells with monopolar spindles at 37°C (47). A weak intranuclear localization was seen for Yaf9-GFP in an mps2-2 mutant at the permissive temperature of 24°C (Fig.…”

“…Mps2 (for monopolar spindle 2) is a spindle pole body (SPB) and nuclear envelope protein that is required for the insertion of the duplicated SPB into the nuclear envelope (47). We identified YNL107w as one of three genes coding for potential interacting partners of the Mps2 protein (36), the other two genes being BBP1 and SPC24 (Fig.…”

“…Subcellular fractionation and solubilization of the P13 fraction were performed essentially as described (Munoz-Centeno et al 1999). To determine the fractionation profile of Get3, equal cell volumes were analyzed by Western blot with antibodies to GFP (Seedorf et al 1999) and Sec62.…”

“…Typically, a series of 10 to 20 0.2-m optical Z-sections of cells were processed for deconvolution using nearest-neighbor algorithms and then merged to a single plane. Immuno-electron microscopy (immunoEM) was performed as described previously (12,49) using an affinity-purified rabbit polyclonal anti-GFP antibody (provided by Jason Kahana and Pam Silver) and a 5-nm gold-conjugated secondary antibody (Ted Pella, Inc.).…”
