Plk1 phosphorylation of TRF1 is essential for its binding to telomeres.
In a search for Polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1) interaction proteins, we have identified TRF1 (telomeric repeat binding factor 1) as a potential Plk1 target. In this communication we report further characterization of the interaction. We show that Plk1 associates with TRF1, and Plk1 phosphorylates TRF1 at Ser-435 in vivo. Moreover, Cdk1, serving as a priming kinase, phosphorylates TRF1 to generate a ...
متن کاملTRF1 and TRF2 binding to telomeres is modulated by nucleosomal organization
The ends of eukaryotic chromosomes need to be protected from the activation of a DNA damage response that leads the cell to replicative senescence or apoptosis. In mammals, protection is accomplished by a six-factor complex named shelterin, which organizes the terminal TTAGGG repeats in a still ill-defined structure, the telomere. The stable interaction of shelterin with telomeres mainly depend...
متن کاملPhosphorylation- and polo-box-dependent binding of Plk1 to Bub1 is required for the kinetochore localization of Plk1.
Polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1) is required for the generation of the tension-sensing 3F3/2 kinetochore epitope and facilitates kinetochore localization of Mad2 and other spindle checkpoint proteins. Here, we investigate the mechanism by which Plk1 itself is recruited to kinetochores. We show that Plk1 binds to budding uninhibited by benzimidazole 1 (Bub1) in mitotic human cells. The Plk1-Bub1 intera...
متن کاملHSF1 as a mitotic regulator: phosphorylation of HSF1 by Plk1 is essential for mitotic progression.
Previously, heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) had been reported to induce genomic instability and aneuploidy by interaction with Cdc20. Here, we have further examined the functions of HSF1 in the regulation of mitosis. A null mutant or knockdown of HSF1 caused defective mitotic progression. By monitoring chromosomes in living cells, we determined that HSF1 was localized to the centrosome in mitosis an...
متن کاملWRN is recruited to damaged telomeres via its RQC domain and tankyrase1-mediated poly-ADP-ribosylation of TRF1
Werner syndrome (WS) is a progeroid-like syndrome caused by WRN gene mutations. WS cells exhibit shorter telomere length compared to normal cells, but it is not fully understood how WRN deficiency leads directly to telomere dysfunction. By generating localized telomere-specific DNA damage in a real-time fashion and a dose-dependent manner, we found that the damage response of WRN at telomeres r...
