Abstract

Summary: The activity of dynein is regulated by a number of adaptors that mediate its interaction with dynactin, effectively activating the motor complex while also connecting it to different cargos. The regulation of adaptors is consequently central to dynein physiology, but remains largely unexplored. We now describe that one of the best-known dynein adaptors, BICD2, is effectively activated through phosphorylation. In G2 phosphorylation of BICD2 by CDK1 promotes its interaction with PLK1. In turn, PLK1 phosphorylation of a single residue in the N-terminus of BICD2 results in a conformational change that facilitates interaction with dynein and dynactin, allowing the formation of active motor complexes. BICD2 phosphorylation is central for dynein recruitment to the nuclear envelope, centrosome tethering to the nucleus and centrosome separation in G2/M. This work reveals adaptor activation through phosphorylation as crucial for the spatiotemporal regulation of dynein activity.

Fig. 1 BICD2 interacts with PLK1 through its Polo-Box Domain. A Coimmunoprecipitation of endogenous PLK1 and BICD2 in exponentially growing (Exp) and mitotic (M) HeLa cell extracts. anti-BICD2 or normal IgG (NIgG) immunoprecipitates (IP) were analyzed by western blot (W) using either anti-PLK1 or anti-BICD2 antibodies. Note BICD2 high apparent molecular weight in mitotic cells, red arrowheads. PLK1 in the corresponding extracts is shown in the lower panel. The mean of quantifications corresponding to two independent experiments is shown (PLK1 intensity/BICD2 intensity in the immunoprecipitates; this and subsequent experiments source data are provided in the Source Data file). B PLK1 interacts with the N-terminal region of BICD2. Immunoprecipitates of the indicated recombinant GFP-fusion proteins were analyzed by western blot using either anti-PLK1, to detect the endogenous kinase, or anti-GFP. PLK1 in the corresponding extracts is shown in the lower panel. Note that different fragments of GFP-BICD2 are produced when recombinant proteins are expressed in cells. Arrowheads indicating the expected MW of relevant proteins have been added for clarity (GFP-BICD2, ~120 kDa; GFP-BICD2 1-575, ~90 kDa; GFP-BICD2 576-820, ~55 kDa; GFP, ~25 kDa). One of two independent experiments with similar results is shown. C PLK1 interacts with BICD2 through its Polo-Box Domain (PBD). Extracts of exponentially growing (Exp) or mitotic (M) HeLa cells were incubated with either bacterial expressed GST or GST-PBD (GST-PLK1 [354–603]) bound to GSH agarose beads. Endogenous BICD2 was detected by western blot (W) and GST-fusion proteins by Coomassie Brilliant Blue staining (CBB). BICD2 in the corresponding extracts is shown in the lower panel. Note that in both pulldowns from exponential and mitotic extracts the apparent molecular weight of BICD2 interacting with PLK1-PBD corresponds to the fastest migrating form (red arrowhead, high MW; black arrowhead, low MW). The mean of quantifications corresponding to two independent experiments is shown (BICD2 intensity/GST-PBD intensity in the pulldowns).

Fig. 2 BICD2 is a PLK1 and CDK1 substrate. A and B In vitro phosphorylation of GST-BICD2 fragments by CDK1/cyclin B. Purified bacterial GST-BICD2 [1–271] (left) or GST-BICD2 [272–540] (right) were incubated with recombinant CDK1/cyclin B plus [γ-32P]ATP/Mg2+ at 25 °C for the indicated times. Myelin basic protein (MBP) was used as a positive control. Reactions were stopped with electrophoresis sample buffer and after SDS–PAGE proteins were visualized by Coomassie Brilliant Blue staining (CBB) and 32P incorporation by autoradiography. Relative 32P incorporation into BICD2 was quantified using a Phosphorimager and is shown in B. A non-radioactive replicate of the GST-BICD2 [272–540] reaction at 15 min was used to identify phosphorylated sites by LC–MS/MS. The original analysis using trypsin covered >80% of the sequence and included all the putative CDK1 sites except Thr321, predicted to be contained in a very short peptide (Thr319-Lys324). The analysis identified Ser331 as phosphorylated site. An additional analysis targeted to Thr321 and its surroundings and using chymotrypsin was carried out, detecting an additional phosphopeptide with a single phosphosite ambiguous between Thr319, Ser320 and Thr321. C Sites phosphorylated in vitro in BICD2 [272–540] by CDK1, as identified by LC-MS/MS. Conserved in H.s., conservation in humans (the orthologous residue is indicated between parenthesis). In vivo, sites previously determined to be phosphorylated in vivo in human cells (see https://www.phosphosite.org/). CDK1 motif, presence of a CDK1 consensus motif around the phosphorylation site ([S/T]PX[K/R] where X is any residue and S or T are the modified residues). Asterisks denote that a single phosphorylation site was detected that could not be assigned unequivocally among the three residues. D, E The interaction of BICD2 and PLK1 depends on the residues phosphorylated by CDK1. D anti-GFP immunoprecipitates (IP) from extracts of exponentially growing (Exp) or mitotic (M) HeLa cells expressing either GFP, GFP-BICD2 wild type (WT) or GFP-BICD2 [T319A, S320A, T321A] (GFP-BICD2 AAA). Endogenous PLK1 and GFP are detected by western blot (W). PLK1 in the corresponding extracts is shown in the lower panel. E Extracts of HeLa cells expressing GFP-BICD2 wild type (WT) or GFP-BICD2 AAA were incubated with GST or GST-PBD bound to GSH agarose beads. GFP was detected by western blot and GST-fusion proteins by Coomassie Brilliant Blue (CBB) staining. The mean of quantifications corresponding to two independent experiments is shown (D, PLK1 intensity/GFP-BICD2 intensity in the immunoprecipitates; E, GFP-BICD2 intensity/GST-PBD intensity in the pulldowns). F, G In vitro phosphorylation of GST-BICD2 fragments by PLK1. Purified bacterial GST-BICD2 [1–271] (left) or GST-BICD2 [272–540] (right), were incubated with recombinant PLK1 plus [γ-32P]ATP/Mg2+ at 25 °C for the indicated times. ß-casein was used as a positive control. Phosphorylation was visualized and quantified as above. Relative 32P incorporation into BICD2 is shown in (G). Note that phosphorylation of GST-BICD2 [1-271] by PLK1 was extremely fast, occurring during the mixing of the reaction components and before it was stopped with electrophoresis sample buffer (t = 0). Non-radioactive replicates of the reactions at 15 min were used to identify phosphorylated sites by LC–MS/MS. Analysis using trypsin covered ~90% of the sequence in both cases.

In vivo, sites previously determined to be phosphorylated in vivo in human cells (see https://www.phosphosite.org/). PLK1 motif, presence of a PLK1 consensus motif around the phosphorylation site ([D/E]X[S/T]Φ, where X is any aminoacid and Φ is an hydrophobic residue).

I Top, schematic representation of BICD2, noting regions interacting with different proteins or protein complexes, plus the different fragments and residues mentioned in this figure (Dynactin p.e., dynactin pointed end). Residue number corresponds to mouse BICD2. Coiled-coil regions have been predicted using paircoil276. Bottom, sequence alignments of residues surrounding Ser102, Thr319, Ser320, Thr321 and Ser331 in different BICD2 vertebrate orthologues are shown: mouse (Q921C5), human (Q8TD16), Xenopus laevis (Q5FWL8), Dario rerio (X1WDT9) and Carcharodon carcharias, a cartilaginous fish (XP_041047193).

Fig. 7 BICD2 Ser102 phosphorylation regulates centrosome tethering to the nucleus and separation during G2 and early mitosis. The figure shows the ability of different BICD2 mutant forms to rescue centrosome tethering to the nucleus and centrosome separation upon endogenous BICD2 downregulation in G2 (A–C) and prophase (D–F). For this, HeLa cells were transfected with the indicated siRNAs and cDNAs as in Fig. 6C–F, fixed and immunostained with the indicated antibodies plus DAPI. Pericentrin was used as a centrosomal marker, cyclin B and DNA staining to identify cell cycle stage. Example cells for each condition are shown in (A) and (D).

Fig. 8 Ser102 controls BICD2 binding to phosphorylated RanBP2 BBD. Graphical model illustrating the role of phosphorylation in controlling BICD2 activity and function in G2 and M. A Wild type and S102D TwinStrep-BID2 were incubated with GSH agarose beads bound to GST-Rab6 (preloaded with either GDP or GTPγS) or GST-RanBP2 BBD (BICD2 Binding Domain, residues 2147-2287). When indicated, GST-RanBP2 BBD had been previously phosphorylated by incubation with CDK1/Cyclin B and ATP/Mg2+. After washes, TwinStrep-BICD2 bound to the beads was detected by western blot (W) using anti-BICD2 antibodies. GST-fusion proteins were subsequently detected with anti-GST antibodies (note that GST-RanBP2 BBD expresses poorly and gets easily degraded, resulting in free GST in the samples). One of three experiments is shown, together with a quantification of the amount of BICD2 bound to RanPB2 BBD and Rab6 in the different conditions (mean ± SD of three independent experiments; BICD2 intensity/GST intensity in the pulldowns; statistical significance analyzed using one-way ANOVA with post hoc analysis; no correction for multiple comparations, Fisher’s LSD test). For GST-BBD (top): WT vs. 102D, P = 0.9912 (n.s.); WT + CDK1 vs. 102D + CDK1, P < 0.0001 (***); for GST-Rab6 (bottom): WT + GTPγS vs. 102D + GTPγS, P = 0.8952 (n.s.); WT + GDP vs. 102D + GDP, P = 0.8230 (n.s.). B In G2 and early M, CDKs (CDK1 and possibly CDK2) phosphorylate BICD2 (yellow circles denote phosphorylation). This allows BICD2 to interact with the PBD domain of PLK1. In turn PLK1 phosphorylates BICD2 at Ser102, inducing a conformational change that results in the interaction of the adaptor with dynein and dynactin and the formation of an active DDB complex. In G2 (right, top box), phosphorylated BICD2 can interact with RanBP2 (also known as NUP358), once this nucleoporin has been phosphorylated by CDK121 (and possibly CDK2). RanBP2/BICD220, together with the Nup133/CENPF/NDE(L)126 dynein recruiting pathway, concentrates active dynein complexes to the nuclear pores (green boxes), effectively tethering the centrosomes to the nuclear envelope. Nesprin-2 additionally collaborates in recruiting BICD2/dynein to the nuclear membrane22. In early mitosis (lower box) this facilitates centrosome separation, mostly driven by the bipolar kinesin Eg5, that is also regulated by CDK166 and PLK1 through the action of the NIMA kinases NEK9, NEK6, and NEK750.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
