Cytokinesis: Regulated By Destruction
Important transitions in the cell cycle are regulated by ubiquitin-dependent degradation of specific proteins. Recent data indicate that cytokinesis is also regulated by proteolysis.
متن کاملProper timing of cytokinesis is regulated by Schizosaccharomyces pombe Etd1
Cytokinesis must be initiated only after chromosomes have been segregated in anaphase and must be terminated once cleavage is completed. We show that the fission yeast protein Etd1 plays a central role in both of these processes. Etd1 activates the guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) Spg1 to trigger signaling through the septum initiation network (SIN) pathway and onset of cytokinesis. Spg1 is ac...
متن کاملIntegrin trafficking regulated by Rab21 is necessary for cytokinesis.
Adherent cells undergo remarkable changes in shape during cell division. However, the functional interplay between cell adhesion turnover and the mitotic machinery is poorly understood. The endo/exocytic trafficking of integrins is regulated by the small GTPase Rab21, which associates with several integrin alpha subunits. Here, we show that targeted trafficking of integrins to and from the clea...
متن کاملp190RhoGAP is cell cycle regulated and affects cytokinesis
p190RhoGAP (p190), a Rho family GTPase-activating protein, regulates actin stress fiber dynamics via hydrolysis of Rho-GTP. Recent data suggest that p190 also regulates cell proliferation. To gain insights into the cellular process(es) affected by p190, we altered its levels by conditional or transient overexpression. Overexpression of p190 resulted in a multinucleated phenotype that was depend...
متن کاملInduction of cytokinesis is independent of precisely regulated microtubule dynamics.
Astral microtubules (MTs) emanating from the mitotic apparatus (MA) during anaphase are required for stimulation of cytokinesis in eggs. We have used green fluorescent protein-labeled EB1 to observe MT dynamics during mitosis and cytokinesis in normal sea urchin eggs. Analysis of astral MT growth rates during anaphase shows that MTs contact the polar cortex earlier than the equatorial cortex af...
