Spc24 and Stu2 Promote Spindle Integrity When DNA Replication Is Stalled

Abstract: The kinetochore, a protein complex that links chromosomes to microtubules (MTs), is required to prevent spindle expansion during S phase in budding yeast, but the mechanism of how the kinetochore maintains integrity of the bipolar spindle before mitosis is not well understood. Here, we demonstrate that a mutation of Spc24, a component of the conserved Ndc80 kinetochore complex, causes lethality when cells are exposed to the DNA replication inhibitor hydroxyurea (HU) due to premature spindle expansion and segre… Show more

“…Kinetochore particles were purified from cells carrying temperature sensitive alleles of a component of the Dam1 ( dad1-1 ), Ndc80 ( ndc80-1 ) or KNL1 Spc105 ( spc105-15 ) complexes. The Stu2 kinetochore-association was disrupted only in cells carrying an ndc80-1 allele (Figure 1B), in agreement with previously reported chromatin immunoprecipitation data (He et al, 2001; Ma et al, 2007). We further confirmed this by isolating kinetochores from cells carrying an ndc80-AID (auxin inducible degron; Nishimura et al, 2009) allele indicating there is a kinetochore-bound pool of Stu2 that requires the Ndc80 complex for its association (Figure S1A).…”

“…Stu2 can be found both colocalized with kinetochores and along the spindle in DAM1-765 (Figure 1B). This result is consistent with the observed localization in wild-type cells and with previous reports that Stu2 binds the kinetochore independently of microtubules 26, 40. Cin8 localizes along the DAM1-765 spindle, and in some cells also colocalizes with kinetochores, as it does in wild-type cells (Figure 1C).…”

“…In wild-type cells, the plus-end binding proteins (Bik1, Bim1, and Stu2) and plus-end directed motors (Cin8 and Kip3) each localize into two peaks of fluorescence that overlap with the two peaks of kinetochore fluorescence (Figure 1B, C). These localizations are consistent with an enrichment of these proteins at microtubule plus ends, where the kinetochores attach 30, 37-40…”
