Abstract


Mislocalization of overexpressed CENP-A (Cse4 in budding yeast, Cnp1 in fission yeast, CID in flies) contributes to chromosomal instability (CIN) in yeasts, flies, and human cells. Mislocalization of CENP-A is observed in many cancers and this correlates with poor prognosis. Structural mechanisms that contribute to mislocalization of CENP-A are poorly defined. Here, we show that interaction of histone H4 with Cse4 facilitates an in vivo conformational change in Cse4 promoting its mislocalization in budding yeast. We determined that Cse4 Y193A mutant exhibits reduced sumoylation, mislocalization, interaction with histone H4, and lethality in psh1Δ and cdc48-3 strains; all these phenotypes are suppressed by increased gene dosage of histone H4. We developed a new in vivo approach, antibody accessibility (AA) assay, to examine the conformation of Cse4. AA assay showed that wild-type Cse4 with histone H4 is in an 'open' state, while Cse4 Y193A predominantly exhibits a 'closed' state. Increased gene dosage of histone H4 contributes to a shift of Cse4 Y193A to an 'open' state with enhanced sumoylation and mislocalization. We provide molecular insights into how Cse4-H4 interaction changes the conformational state of Cse4 in vivo. These studies advance our understanding for mechanisms that promote mislocalization of CENP-A in human cancers.
