Phosphatase 2A negatively regulates mitotic exit in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Yanchang Wang et al. Mol Biol Cell. 2006 Jan.
Abstract
In budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Cdc5 kinase is a component of mitotic exit network (MEN), which inactivates cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) after chromosome segregation. cdc5-1 mutants arrest at telophase at the nonpermissive temperature due to the failure of CDK inactivation. To identify more negative regulators of MEN, we carried out a genetic screen for genes that are toxic to cdc5-1 mutants when overexpressed. Genes that encode the B-regulatory subunit (Cdc55) and the three catalytic subunits (Pph21, Pph22, and Pph3) of phosphatase 2A (PP2A) were isolated. In addition to cdc5-1, overexpression of CDC55, PPH21, or PPH22 is also toxic to other temperature-sensitive mutants that display defects in mitotic exit. Consistently, deletion of CDC55 partially suppresses the temperature sensitivity of these mutants. Moreover, in the presence of spindle damage, PP2A mutants display nuclear localized Cdc14, the key player in MEN pathway, indicative of MEN activation. All the evidence suggests the negative role of PP2A in mitotic exit. Finally, our genetic and biochemical data suggest that PP2A regulates the phosphorylation of Tem1, which acts at the very top of MEN pathway.

(A) Overexpression of PP2A components is lethal to mutants defective in mitotic exit. Saturated cell cultures were 10-time serial diluted and then spotted onto plates containing either glucose (Glu) or galactose (Gal). The plates were incubated at 25°C for 3 d. (B) and (C) Δ_cdc55_ mutant suppresses the temperature-sensitive phenotype of some mutants in the MEN pathway. The saturated cultures of strains with indicated genotype were 10-fold serial diluted and spotted onto YPD plates and incubated at indicated temperatures for 3 d.

(A) Δ_cdc55_ mutant cells exit mitosis in the presence of nocodazole. Wild-type (Y300) and Δ_cdc55_ mutant (YYW28) cells in midlog phase were arrested at G1 phase with α-factor and then released into 30°C YPD medium containing 20 μg/ml nocodazole after sonication. Cells were harvested at 30-min intervals for budding index. The top panel shows the percentile of cells with extrabud and the bottom panel shows cells after 240-min incubation in the presence of nocodazole.

Cdc14 is released from the nucleolus in Δ_cdc55_ mutants in the presence of nocodazole. (A**)** A1411 (CDC14-HA) and 173-1-3 (Δ_cdc55 CDC14-HA_) cells were arrested at G1 phase with α-factor and then released into YPD medium. Cells were collected every 20 min and fixed for Cdc14-HA staining. The budding index and the kinetics of Cdc14 release from the nucleolus are shown in the top and bottom panels, respectively. (B) The same strains were arrested at G1 phase and then released into YPD medium containing 20 μg/ml nocodazole at 30°C. The budding index and Cdc14 localization are shown. (C) The nuclear structure and Cdc14 localization of the 180 min samples in B are shown (top). The bottom of panel C shows the Net1 localization. G1-arrested NET1-myc and Δ_cdc55 NET1-myc_ cells were released into nocodazole medium. Cells were collected for Net1-myc staining.

Midlog phase of A1411, 173-1-3, and 472-7-2 were incubated in the presence of 20 μg/ml nocodazole at 30°C. Cells were collected after 3-h incubation for Cdc14 staining. (E) Hof1 phosphorylation is more pronounced in nocodazole-treated Δ_cdc55_ mutants.

Cells were taken every 20 min to prepare protein extracts. The phosphorylation status of Bfa1 were determined by Western blot analysis with anti-HA antibodies. In the bottom panel, cdc14-1 BFA1-HA cells with a vector or a PGAL_-CDC55_ plasmid were grown to midlog phase in the raffinose medium at 25°C followed by the following treatments: 1) to add galactose and incubate for 1 h at 25°C; 2) to add galactose and incubate for 1 h at 25°C and then shift to 34°C for 3 h; 3) to shift to 34°C for 3 h; and 4) to shift to 34°C for 3 h and then add galactose and incubate at 34°C for 1 h. The phosphorylation of Bfa1 protein is shown after Western blotting with anti-HA antibody. (B) Δ_cdc55_ Δ_bfa1_ and Δ_cdc55_ Δ_bub2_ double mutants display slow-growth phenotype.

Cells were arrested at G1 phase with α-factor and then released into YPD medium at 30°C. Hydroxyurea, 200 mM, was added into the medium at 80 min when majority of the cells were large budded in order to block the release of Cdc14 from the nucleolus during the next cell cycle.

PP2A regulates mitotic exit through Tem1 modification. (A) Δ_cdc55_ deletion partially suppresses the mitotic exit defects of tem1-3 mutants. G1-arrested tem1-3, tem1-3 Δ_cdc55, cdc15-2,_ and cdc15-2 Δ_cdc55_ mutants were released into 37°C YPD medium and the budding morphology was examined over time.
