Loss of pRB causes centromere dysfunction and chromosomal instability.
Chromosome instability (CIN) is a common feature of tumor cells. By monitoring chromosome segregation, we show that depletion of the retinoblastoma protein (pRB) causes rates of missegregation comparable with those seen in CIN tumor cells. The retinoblastoma tumor suppressor is frequently inactivated in human cancers and is best known for its regulation of the G1/S-phase transition. Recent stud...
متن کاملAlkylation damage causes MMR-dependent chromosomal instability in vertebrate embryos
S(N)1-type alkylating agents, like N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) and N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU), are potent mutagens. Exposure to alkylating agents gives rise to O(6)-alkylguanine, a modified base that is recognized by DNA mismatch repair (MMR) proteins but is not repairable, resulting in replication fork stalling and cell death. We used a somatic mutation detection assay to study the in vivo e...
متن کاملLoss of centrioles causes chromosomal instability in vertebrate somatic cells
Most animal cells contain a centrosome, which comprises a pair of centrioles surrounded by an ordered pericentriolar matrix (PCM). Although the role of this organelle in organizing the mitotic spindle poles is well established, its precise contribution to cell division and cell survival remains a subject of debate. By genetically ablating key components of centriole biogenesis in chicken DT40 B...
متن کاملUp-regulation of the mitotic checkpoint component Mad1 causes chromosomal instability and resistance to microtubule poisons.
The mitotic checkpoint is the major cell cycle checkpoint acting during mitosis to prevent aneuploidy and chromosomal instability, which are hallmarks of tumor cells. Reduced expression of the mitotic checkpoint component Mad1 causes aneuploidy and promotes tumors in mice [Iwanaga Y, et al. (2007) Cancer Res 67:160-166]. However, the prevalence and consequences of Mad1 overexpression are curren...
متن کاملStress granule formation via ATP depletion-triggered phase separation
Stress granules (SG) are droplets of proteins and RNA that form in the cell cytoplasm during stress conditions. We consider minimal models of stress granule formation based on the mechanism of phase separation regulated by ATP-driven chemical reactions. Motivated by experimental observations, we identify a minimal model of SG formation triggered by ATP depletion. Our analysis indicates that ATP...
