Outer kinetochore assembly enables chromosome attachment to microtubules and spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) signaling in mitosis. Aurora B kinase controls kinetochore assembly by phosphorylating the Mis12 complex (Mis12C) subunit Dsn1. Current models propose Dsn1 phosphorylation relieves autoinhibition, allowing Mis12C binding to inner kinetochore component CENP-C. Using Xenopus laevis egg extracts and biochemical reconstitution, we found that autoinhibition of the Mis12C by Dsn1 impedes its phosphorylation by Aurora B. Our data indicate that the INCENP central region increases Dsn1 phosphorylation by enriching Aurora B at inner kinetochores, close to CENP-C. Furthermore, centromere-bound CENP-C does not exchange in mitosis, and CENP-C binding to the Mis12C dramatically increases Dsn1 phosphorylation by Aurora B. We propose that the coincidence of Aurora B and CENP-C at inner kinetochores ensures the fidelity of kinetochore assembly. We also found that the central region is required for the SAC beyond its role in kinetochore assembly, suggesting that kinetochore enrichment of Aurora B promotes the phosphorylation of other kinetochore substrates.

Figure 1. Outer kinetochore assembly is completely dependent on the phosphorylation of Dsn1 by Aurora B in Xenopus egg extracts. (A) Alignment of the Dsn1 autoinhibitory basic region from indicated species showing conserved Aurora B phosphorylation sites. (B) Schematic of kinetochore assembly experiments in Xenopus egg extract. Sperm chromatin was added to WT or ÎCPC CSF extract. To express mutants, recombinant protein or mRNA was added to CSF extract at this point. Here, shown in green, mRNA was added to express the Mis12C or its variants (Mis12CDsn1EE/S77E/S84E), composed of Nsl1, Mis12, Pmf1, and Dsn1-LAP. For all figures, unless recombinant (r) protein is noted in text or figure legend, all mutants were expressed from mRNA. Calcium chloride was added to cycle extract into interphase. After 90 min, 2Ã volume CSF extract (WT or ÎCPC) was added to cycle the extract into metaphase in addition to drugs shown in red. After a total of 135 min, samples were taken for immunofluorescence and Western blots. (C) Representative immunofluorescence images of replicated chromosomes in WT Xenopus metaphase extracts with the Mis12C expressed from mRNA in extracts and treated with hesperadin in indicated conditions. Chromosomes were stained for Ndc80 and Dsn1. (D) Quantification of fluorescence intensity of Ndc80 on replicated chromosomes in metaphase extracts in indicated conditions shown in C, normalized to WT. n = 96 kinetochores. Error bars represent SD unless otherwise noted, and asterisks indicate a statistically significant difference (*, P < 0.001). A.U., arbitrary units. (E) Western blot for Dsn1-LAP, histone H3 phosphorylation (H3S10ph), and tubulin for samples shown in C and D. | |

These constructs were expressed from mRNA in extracts, along with full-length Borealin, Survivin, and Aurora B, to reconstitute ÎCPC extracts, unless otherwise noted.

(A) Schematic of soluble Dsn1 Assay to test if Mis12C phosphorylated away from chromatin promotes kinetochore assembly (see Fig. S5 C and Materials and methods for more details). In brief, Aurora B was activated by anti-INCENP beads in CSF extract lacking chromosomes and given time to phosphorylate Mis12C. Kinase and phosphatase inhibitors were added to preserve the phosphorylation state of Mis12C, and beads were then removed. This extract, containing soluble phosphorylated Mis12C, was then added to interphase extract containing Aurora B inhibitors and chromatin to drive the reaction into metaphase. Positive and negative control reactions are indicated with blue and red, respectively.

Figure 9. Kinetochore-localized Aurora B is required for kinetochore assembly and function. (A) Mis12C autoinhibition prevents phosphorylation by Aurora B. Away from kinetochores, the autoinhibited form of the Mis12C (orange spheres) predominates and prevents Aurora B phosphorylation of Dsn1 through burial of Dsn1S77. (B) Model for kinetochore assembly through the cooperative actions of CENP-C, the INCENP central region, and Aurora B. At the inner kinetochore, the Mis12C transiently binds to prebound CENP-C (and likely CENP-T) molecules, which relieves Mis12C autoinhibition and exposes the Dsn1 tail. In early mitosis, Aurora B is enriched at inner kinetochores by the central region of INCENP. This high local concentration of Aurora B rapidly phosphorylates the exposed Dsn1 tail to prevent dissociation of the Mis12C. Thus, the coincidence of CENP-C and the CPC at inner kinetochores stabilizes the Mis12CâCENP-C interaction to drive outer kinetochore assembly. Our data indicate that enrichment of Aurora B at the inner kinetochore is also involved in SAC signaling through the phosphorylation substrates other than Dsn1. |
