KIF2C-induced nuclear condensation concentrates PLK1 and phosphorylated BRCA2 at the kinetochore microtubules in mitosis

Abstract

SUMMARY: During mitosis, the human microtubule depolymerase KIF2C increases the turnover of kinetochore-microtubule attachments. This facilitates the correction of attachment errors. Moreover, BRCA2 phosphorylated at Thr207 by PLK1 (BRCA2-pT207) assembles a complex including PLK1, PP2A and BUBR1 that contributes to the stability of the kinetochore-microtubule attachments. PLK1, together with Aurora B, critically regulate the accurate segregation of chromosomes. Here we demonstrate that KIF2C contains an N-terminal domain that binds directly to several phosphorylated peptides, including BRCA2-pT207. Using an optogenetic platform, we reveal that KIF2C assembles into membrane-less compartments or biomolecular condensates that are located next to microtubules. We provide evidence that condensate assembly depends on the presence of the newly defined N-terminal phospho-binding domain of KIF2C and on the kinase activities of Aurora B and PLK1. Moreover, KIF2C condensates concentrate active PLK1 and colocalize with BRCA2-pT207. We propose that, because of its phospho-dependent binding and oligomerization capacities, KIF2C forms biomolecular condensates that partition PLK1 and locally amplify its kinase activity during mitosis.

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.
