Under normal conditions, crystal cells rarely proliferate and constitute a small proportion of fly blood cells. Notch signaling has been known to guide the cell fate determination of crystal cells and maintain their survival. Here, we reported that protein phosphatase V (PpV), the unique catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 6 in Drosophila, is a novel regulator of crystal cell proliferation and integrity. We found that PpV proteins highly accumulated in crystal cells in the larval hematopoietic organ termed the lymph gland. Silencing PpV using RNA interference led to increased crystal cell proliferation in a Notch-independent manner and induced crystal cell rupture dependent on Notch signaling. Moreover, additive PpV prevented the rupture of crystal cells in lymph glands upon a needle injury, suggesting the involvement of PpV in wound healing. Altogether, our results indicated that PpV plays a dual role in lymph glands, preventing crystal cell proliferation to limit the cell number, as well as inhibiting crystal cell rupture to maintain their survival.","PeriodicalId":16433,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Molecular Cell Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141860068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we identified a regulatory mechanism by which PLK1-elicited zeste white 10 (ZW10) phosphorylation regulates spindle checkpoint silencing in mitosis. ZW10 is a cognate substrate of PLK1, and the phosphorylation of ZW10 at Ser12 enables dynamic ZW10-Zwint1 interactions. Inhibition of ZW10 phosphorylation resulted in misaligned chromosomes, while persistent expression of phospho-mimicking ZW10 mutant caused premature anaphase, in which sister chromatids entangled as cells entered anaphase.

Here, we show that EB1 forms molecular condensates with TIP150 and MCAK through liquid-liquid phase separation to compartmentalize the kinetochore-microtubule plus-end machinery, ensuring accurate kinetochore-microtubule interactions during chromosome segregation in mitosis. Perturbation of EB1-TIP150 polymer formation by a competing peptide prevents phase separation of the EB1-mediated complex and chromosome alignment at the metaphase equator in both cultured cells and Drosophila embryos. Lys220 of EB1 is dynamically acetylated by p300/CBP-associated factor in early mitosis, and persistent acetylation at Lys220 attenuates phase separation of the EB1-mediated complex, dissolves droplets in vitro, and harnesses accurate chromosome segregation.

However, how these free MT tips are stabilized remains poorly understood. Here, we report that centrosome and spindle pole protein 1 (CSPP1) caps and stabilizes both plus and minus ends of static MTs. Real-time imaging of laser-ablated MTs in live cells showed deposition of CSPP1 at the newly generated MT ends, whose dynamic instability was concomitantly suppressed. Consistently, MT ends in CSPP1-overexpressing cells were hyper-stabilized, while those in CSPP1-depleted cells were much more dynamic. This CSPP1-elicited stabilization of MTs was demonstrated to be achieved by suppressing intrinsic MT catastrophe and restricting polymerization. Importantly, CSPP1-bound MTs were resistant to mitotic centromere-associated kinesin-mediated depolymerization.

APA is involved in lymphocyte activation; however, its role throughout the entire differentiation trajectory remains elusive. Here, we analyzed single-cell 3'-end transcriptome data from healthy subjects to construct a dynamic-APA landscape from hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) to terminally differentiated lymphocytes. This analysis covered 19973 cells of 12 clusters from five lineages (B cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, natural killer cells, and plasmacytoid dendritic cells). A total of 2364 genes exhibited differential 3'UTR PAS usage, and 3021 genes displayed differential intronic cleavage during lymphoid differentiation. We observed a global trend of 3'UTR shortening during lymphoid differentiation. Nevertheless, specific events of both 3'UTR shortening and lengthening were also identified within each cluster. The APA patterns delineated three differentiation stages: HSPCs, precursor cells, and mature cells. Moreover, we demonstrated that the conversion of naïve T cells to memory T cells was accompanied by dynamic APA in transcription factor-encoding genes (TCF7 and NFATC2IP), immune function-related genes (BCL2, CD5, CD28, GOLT1B, and TMEM59), and protein ubiquitination-related genes (UBE2G1, YPEL5, and SUMO3).

Somatic mutations within the coiled-coil (CC) domain and WD40 repeat domain of TRAF7 could cause brain tumors, while germline pathogenic mutations contribute to severe developmental abnormalities. However, the precise molecular mechanism underlying TRAF7 involvement in embryonic development remains unclear. In this study, we employed zebrafish as an in vivo model system. TRAF7 knock down caused defects in zebrafish embryonic development. We determined the crystal structure of TRAF7 CC domain at 3.3 Å resolution and found that the CC region trimerization was essential for TRAF7 functionality during zebrafish embryonic development. Additionally, disease-causing mutations in TRAF7 CC region could impair the trimer formation, consequently impacting early embryonic development of zebrafish. Therefore, our study sheds light on the molecular mechanism of TRAF7 CC trimer formation and its pivotal role in embryonic development.","PeriodicalId":16433,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Molecular Cell Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11216086/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139098043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
