An Attachment-Independent Biochemical Timer of the Spindle Assembly Checkpoint.
2017
The spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) generates a diffusible protein complex that prevents anaphase until all chromosomes are properly attached to spindle microtubules. A key step in SAC initiation is the recruitment of MAD1 to kinetochores, which is generally thought to be governed by the microtubule-kinetochore (MT-KT) attachment status. However, we demonstrate that the recruitment of MAD1 via BUB1, a conserved kinetochore receptor, is not affected by MT-KT interactions in human cells. Instead, BUB1:MAD1 interaction depends on BUB1 phosphorylation, which is controlled by a biochemical timer that integrates counteracting kinase and phosphatase effects on BUB1 into a pulse-generating incohe…
