Cell-cycle dependent phosphorylation of yeast pericentrin regulates γ-TuSC-mediated microtubule nucleation

Budding yeast Spc110, a member of γ-tubulin complex receptor family (γ-TuCR), recruits γ-tubulin complexes to microtubule (MT) organizing centers (MTOCs). Biochemical studies suggest that Spc110 facilitates higher-order γ-tubulin complex assembly (Kollman et al., 2010). Nevertheless the molecular basis for this activity and the regulation are unclear. Here we show that Spc110 phosphorylated by ...

MOZART1 and γ-tubulin complex receptors are both required to turn γ-TuSC into an active microtubule nucleation template

MOZART1/Mzt1 is required for the localization of γ-tubulin complexes to microtubule (MT)-organizing centers from yeast to human cells. Nevertheless, the molecular function of MOZART1/Mzt1 is largely unknown. Taking advantage of the minimal MT nucleation system of Candida albicans, we reconstituted the interactions of Mzt1, γ-tubulin small complex (γ-TuSC), and γ-tubulin complex receptors (γ-TuC...

Echinoderm microtubule-associated protein -like protein 5 in anterior temporal neocortex of patients with intractable epilepsy

Objective(s):EMAP-like Protein 5 (EML5) is a new echinoderm microtubule-associated protein that is expressed in the central nervous system. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression profile of EML5 in the anterior temporal neocortex of patients presenting with intractable epilepsy (IE). Materials and Methods:Western blot assays were performed to determine EML5 expression in 36 su...

XMAP215 Is Required for the Microtubule-Nucleating Activity of Centrosomes

Microtubules are essential structures that organize the cytoplasm and form the mitotic spindle. Their number and orientation depend on the rate of nucleation events and their dynamics. Microtubules are often, but not always, nucleated off a single cytoplasmic element, the centrosome. One microtubule-associated protein, XMAP215, is also a resident centrosomal protein. In this study, we have foun...

The structure of the gamma-tubulin small complex: implications of its architecture and flexibility for microtubule nucleation.

The gamma-tubulin small complex (gamma-TuSC) is an evolutionarily conserved heterotetramer essential for microtubule nucleation. We have determined the structure of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae gamma-TuSC at 25-A resolution by electron microscopy. gamma-TuSC is Y-shaped, with an elongated body connected to two arms. Gold labeling showed that the two gamma-tubulins are located in lobes at the en...
