Abstract

Phosphorylation often regulates protein-protein interactions to control biological reactions. The Sld2 and Dpb11 proteins of budding yeast form a phosphorylation-dependent complex that is essential for chromosomal DNA replication. The Sld2 protein has a cluster of 11 cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) phosphorylation motifs (Ser/Thr-Pro), six of which match the canonical sequences Ser/Thr-Pro-X-Lys/Arg, Lys/Arg-Ser/Thr-Pro and Ser/Thr-Pro-Lys/Arg. Simultaneous alanine substitution for serine or threonine in all the canonical CDK-phosphorylation motifs severely reduces complex formation between Sld2 and Dpb11, and inhibits DNA replication. Here we show that phosphorylation of these canonical motifs does not play a direct role in complex formation, but rather regulates phosphorylation of another residue, Thr84. This constitutes a non-canonical CDK-phosphorylation motif within a 28-amino-acid sequence that is responsible, after phosphorylation, for binding of Sld2-Dpb11. We further suggest that CDK-catalysed phosphorylation of sites other than Thr84 renders Thr84 accessible to CDK. Finally, we argue that this novel mechanism sets a threshold of CDK activity for formation of the essential Sld2 to Dpb11 complex and therefore prevents pre...Continue Reading

Cell Checkpoints & Regulators

Cell cycle checkpoints are a series of complex checkpoint mechanisms that detect DNA abnormalities and ensure that DNA replication and repair are complete before cell division. They are primarily regulated by cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases, and the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome. Here is the latest research.
