The RNA-binding protein ATX-2 regulates cytokinesis through PAR-5 and ZEN-4
The spindle midzone harbors both microtubules and proteins necessary for furrow formation and the completion of cytokinesis. However, the mechanisms that mediate the temporal and spatial recruitment of cell division factors to the spindle midzone and midbody remain unclear. Here we describe a mechanism governed by the conserved RNA-binding protein ATX-2/Ataxin-2, which targets and maintains ZEN...
متن کاملTransportin 2 regulates apoptosis through the RNA-binding protein HuR.
In response to severe stress, apoptotic cell death is engaged. Apoptosis is a well orchestrated process that involves the activation and implication of many factors. In this study, we identified a role for the nuclear trafficking factor TRN2 (transportin 2) in cell death. TRN2 is normally responsible for the nuclear import of the RNA-binding protein HuR. During apoptosis, however, HuR accumulat...
متن کاملPhosphorylation of ZEN-4/MKLP1 by Aurora B Regulates Completion of Cytokinesis
The central spindle regulates the formation and positioning of the contractile ring and is essential for completion of cytokinesis [1]. Central spindle assembly begins in early anaphase with the bundling of overlapping, antiparallel, nonkinetochore microtubules [2, 3], and these bundles become compacted and mature into the midbody. Prominent components of the central spindle include aurora B ki...
متن کاملCardiac myosin binding protein C regulates postnatal myocyte cytokinesis.
Homozygous cardiac myosin binding protein C-deficient (Mybpc(t/t)) mice develop dramatic cardiac dilation shortly after birth; heart size increases almost twofold. We have investigated the mechanism of cardiac enlargement in these hearts. Throughout embryogenesis myocytes undergo cell division while maintaining the capacity to pump blood by rapidly disassembling and reforming myofibrillar compo...
متن کاملPAR-4/LKB1 Mobilizes Nonmuscle Myosin through Anillin to Regulate C. elegans Embryonic Polarization and Cytokinesis
BACKGROUND The serine/threonine kinase LKB1 regulates cell growth and polarity in metazoans, and loss of LKB1 function is implicated in the development of some epithelial cancers. Despite its fundamental role, the mechanism by which LKB1 regulates polarity establishment and/or maintenance is unclear. In the present study, we use the nematode C. elegans to investigate the role of the LKB1 orthol...
