Bub1 overexpression induces aneuploidy and tumor formation through Aurora B kinase hyperactivation
High expression of the protein kinase Bub1 has been observed in a variety of human tumors and often correlates with poor clinical prognosis, but its molecular and cellular consequences and role in tumorigenesis are unknown. Here, we demonstrate that overexpression of Bub1 in mice leads to near-diploid aneuploidies and tumor formation. We found that chromosome misalignment and lagging are the pr...
متن کاملBub1 mediates cell death in response to chromosome missegregation and acts to suppress spontaneous tumorigenesis
The physiological role of the mitotic checkpoint protein Bub1 is unknown. To study this role, we generated a series of mutant mice with a gradient of reduced Bub1 expression using wild-type, hypomorphic, and knockout alleles. Bub1 hypomorphic mice are viable, fertile, and overtly normal despite weakened mitotic checkpoint activity and high percentages of aneuploid cells. Bub1 haploinsufficient ...
متن کاملRegulation of mitotic chromosome cohesion by Haspin and Aurora B.
In vertebrate mitosis, cohesion between sister chromatids is lost in two stages. In prophase and prometaphase, cohesin release from chromosome arms occurs under the control of Polo-like kinase 1 and Aurora B, while Shugoshin is thought to prevent removal of centromeric cohesin until anaphase. The regulatory enzymes that act to sustain centromeric cohesion are incompletely described, however. Ha...
متن کاملChromosome Segregation: Aurora B Gets Tousled
Aurora B kinases play important roles during mitosis in eukaryotic cells; new work in Caenorhabditis elegans has identified the Tousled kinase TLK-1 as a substrate activator of the model nematode's Aurora B kinase AIR-2 which acts to ensure proper chromosome segregation during cell division.
متن کاملMutations in the Essential Spindle Checkpoint Gene bub1 Cause Chromosome Missegregation and Fail to Block Apoptosis in Drosophila
We have characterized the Drosophila mitotic checkpoint control protein Bub1 and obtained mutations in the bub1 gene. Drosophila Bub1 localizes strongly to the centromere/kinetochore of mitotic and meiotic chromosomes that have not yet reached the metaphase plate. Animals homozygous for P-element-induced, near-null mutations of bub1 die during late larval/pupal stages due to severe mitotic abno...
