Phosphorylation of H2A by Bub1 Prevents Chromosomal Instability Through Localizing Shugoshin

Abstract

Recruiting the Components for Cell Division: A complete chromosome set must be apportioned to each daughter cell during cell division. A number of molecular mechanisms check that chromosome pairs or homologs are correctly aligned and attached to microtubules just before they separate to the two daughters; their spatial orientation ensures an even inheritance of the genome. One critical component of this system is the protein kinase Bub1. Kawashima et al. (p. 172 , see the Perspective by Javerzat ; published online 19 November) now show that the main substrate for Bub1 kinase activity in fission yeast is the chromatin protein histone H2A. Phosphorylation of H2A recruits the shugoshin proteins to chromatin, and especially to centromeres, where they also act to ensure correct chromosome segregation. This link between Bub1, histone H2A phosphorylation, and shugoshin is conserved in budding yeast and mammalian cells.

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.
