Image caption:
Staurosporine induces filamentation independent of Nrg1 degradation. (A) Staurosporine-induced filamentation is not accompanied by Nrg1 protein degradation. SN95 wild-type cells expressing native levels of HA-tagged Nrg1 were grown in YPD plus 10% serum at 37°C, YPD plus 200 mM hydroxyurea (HU) at 30°C, or YPD plus 0.5 μg/ml staurosporine at 30°C for 5 or 65 min. Total proteins were resolved by SDS-PAGE gel, and the blot was hybridized with anti-HA to detect Nrg1 and anti-tubulin to monitor tubulin as a loading control. (B) Staurosporine induces germ tube formation at different kinetics from serum and hydroxyurea. Cells were imaged by DIC microscopy. The scale bar indicates 10 μm.

Role of the phosphorylation of ATF7 in G2/M progression. (A) Parental HeLa S3/TR, HeLa S3/TR/ATF7-wt (cl.2), or HeLa S3/TR/ATF7-TA (cl.1) cells were synchronized using DTB and released into thymidine-free medium containing 1 µg/ml Dox for 12 h. Whole cell lysates were analyzed by WB. Full-length blots are presented in S12A Fig. (B) HeLa S3/TR/ATF7-wt (cl.2) (upper panels) or HeLa S3/TR/ATF7-TA (cl.1) cells (lower panels) were synchronized using single-thymidine block and released into thymidine-free medium containing 1 µg/ml Dox for 11 h. Cells were triply stained with anti-ATF7[SAB2500131] and anti-α-tubulin antibodies and PI (for DNA). Scale bars, 20 µm. (C, D) Cells were stained with anti-histone H3pS10 antibody (for M phase) and PI for analyzing cell-cycle progression by flow cytometry. (C) Parental HeLa S3/TR, HeLa S3/TR/ATF7-wt (cl.2), or HeLa S3/TR/ATF7-TA (cl.1) cells were synchronized using DTB and released into thymidine-free medium containing 1 µg/ml Dox for 10.5~12.5 h. Two-dimensional histograms (DNA vs histone H3pS10) are presented together with DNA histograms, and the percentages of cells in G1 and M phases were measured. Cells in M and and G1 phases were quantitated from the results of S4 Fig. Values are means ± SD (three independent clones). Asterisks indicate the significant difference (*P<0.05; NS, not significant), as calculated by Student’s t-test. (D) Parental HeLa S3/TR, HeLa S3/TR/ATF7-wt (cl.2), or HeLa S3/TR/ATF7-TA (cl.1) cells were cultured in the presence of 9 µM RO-3306 for 10 h and treated with 1 µg/ml Dox for the last 5 h. The cells that were arrested at G2 phase were released into RO-3306-free medium containing 1 µg/ml Dox and incubated for 0, 10, and 20 min. Two-dimensional histograms (DNA vs histone H3pS10) are presented together with DNA histograms, and M-phase cells were quantitated. Values are means ± SD, n = 3 independent experiments. An asterisk indicates the significant difference (*P<0.05), as calculated by Student’s t-test.

Chromosomes remain associated into anaphase I of Cap-H2 mutants. Metaphase I and anaphase I morphologies were compared between wild-type and Cap-H2Z3-0019/Cap-H2TH1 mutant males. Testes were stained with DAPI and an anti-tubulin antibody to visualize DNA (white) and microtubules (green), respectively (scale bar in 3A indicates 10 μm and 5 μm in 3G). (A) Metaphase I in the wild-type. Each bivalent has congressed to the metaphase plate and appears as a cluster of DAPI stained material. (B) Anaphase I in the wild-type (DAPI only). Homologous chromosomes have segregated to daughter cells. (C) Anaphase I in the wild-type (DAPI and Tubulin merge). (D) Metaphase I from a Cap-H2Z3-0019/Cap-H2TH1 mutant male appears wild-type. (E) Anaphase I from a Cap-H2Z3-0019/Cap-H2TH1 mutant male (DAPI only). Chromatin bridges can be seen in three different segregation events. (F) Anaphase I from a Cap-H2Z3-0019/Cap-H2TH1 mutant male (DAPI and Tubulin merge).

Cap-H2 mutants are defective in anaphase II segregation. Metaphase II and anaphase II morphologies were compared between wild-type and Cap-H2Z3-0019/Cap-H2TH1 mutant males. Testes were stained with DAPI and an anti-tubulin antibody to visualize DNA (white) and microtubules (green), respectively (scale bar in 6A indicates 10 μm). (A) Wild-type metaphase/anaphase II cyst. Metaphase II cells are those where each bivalent has congressed to the metaphase plate and appear as a cluster of DAPI staining material. Anaphase II are those cells with two DAPI staining white clusters, indicating homologous chromosome segregation. (B) Metaphase II and anaphase II figures from a Cap-H2 strong mutant. Arrow indicates an anaphase II bridge. The arrowhead highlights an anaphase II bridge or lagging chromosome.

T566 phosphorylation affects Bub1 stability. (A) BUB1-T566A mutant cells do not show substantial delay in recovering from nocodazole arrest. Wild-type (WT) and BUB1-T566A mutant cells were incubated with nocodazole (15 μg/mL) at 30°C for 90 min and then released from nocodazole arrest; at the indicated times, samples were taken to measure rebudded cells. (B) BUB1-T566A mutant cells show no significant sensitivity to nocodazole in a survival assay. Wild-type (WT), bub1Δ, and BUB1-T566A cells were incubated with nocodazole (15 μg/mL); at the indicated times, cells were washed out and approximately 200 cells were plated on a YPD plate. Cell viability was calculated by dividing the number of colonies formed at the 2.5 and 5 h time points by that formed in the absence of nocodazole (0 h) at 30°C. (C) Phosphorylation of T566 is important for degradation of Bub1 during anaphase but not during G1. cdc15-2 cells with HA-tagged Bub1 or Bub1-T566A expressed by the GAL1 promoter (GAL-BUB1 and GAL-BUB1-T566A) were arrested in anaphase (cdc15-2) or in G1 (alpha-factor) and then transferred to medium containing galactose for 2 h to induce Bub1 expression. Glucose was added to shut-off Bub1 expression; samples were taken at the indicated times for Western blot analyses with antibody to the HA epitope. Tubulin was used as a loading control. (D) The Bub1-T566A protein is more stable than wild-type in the presence of nocodazole. Wild-type and BUB1-T566A mutant cells (Bub1 and Bub1-T566A are tagged with myc) were incubated in the presence of nocodazole (10 µg/mL) at 30°C; at the indicated times, samples were taken for Western blot analyses with antibody to the myc epitope. Tubulin was used as a loading control.
