Phosphorylation of Cdc6 by cyclin-dependent kinases, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 9 inhibits ubiquitination of Cdc6 by APC/Ccdh1 and degradation, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 10 by the proteasome. Experiments described here show that the, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 11 PR70 member of the PPP2R3 family of regulatory subunits tar-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 12 gets protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) to Cdc6. Interaction with, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 13 Cdc6 is mediated by residues within the C terminus of PR70,, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 14 whereas interaction with PP2A requires N-terminal sequences, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 15 conserved within the PPP2R3 family. Two functional EF-hand, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 16 calcium-binding motifs mediate a calcium-enhanced interac-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 17 tion of PR70 with PP2A. Calcium has no effect on the interac-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 18 tion of PR70 with Cdc6 but enhances the association of PP2A, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 19 with Cdc6 through its effects on PR70. Knockdown of PR70 by, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 20 RNA interference results in an accumulation of endogenous and, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 21 expressed Cdc6 protein that is dependent on the cyclin-depend-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 22 ent protein kinase phosphorylation sites on Cdc6. Knockdown, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 23 of PR70 also causes G1 arrest, suggesting that PR70 function is, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 24 critical for progression into S phase. These observations indi-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 25 cate that PP2A can be targeted in a calcium-regulated manner to, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 26 Cdc6 via the PR70 subunit, where it plays a role in regulating, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 27 protein phosphorylation and stability., otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parrnote 28 Precise regulation of DNA replication is necessary to ensure, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 29 that daughter cells receive a complete and intact genome dur-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 30 ing mitosis. A crucial step in regulating DNA replication is the, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 31 assembly of pre-replicative complexes at origins of replication, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 32 (1). Coordination of DNA replication with the cell cycle is, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 33 achieved through a periodic accumulation and destruction of, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 34 proteins involved in formation of pre-RCs3 is mediated by, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 35 cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and the E3 ubiquitin ligase,, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 36 anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (2). The mammalian, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 37 Cdc6 protein is required for DNA replication and acts in con-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 38 junction with the Cdt1 protein to recruit the mini-chromosome, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 39 maintenance complex into pre-RCs (1, 3, 4). Mammalian cells, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 40 have multiple mechanisms to ensure that pre-RCs only assem-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 41 ble during late M and G1, including regulation of the levels and, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 42 function of Cdc6 (2)., otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 43 Mammalian Cdc6 is regulated by phosphorylation of multi-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 44 ple sites within its N-terminal domain by cyclin-dependent, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 45 protein kinases. Cdc6 is phosphorylated at canonical CDK sites,, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 46 including serines 54, 74, and 106 of human Cdc6 (5, 6). Exper-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 47 iments with exogenously expressed protein have shown that, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 48 phosphorylation can regulate the nuclear localization of Cdc6, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 49 (5, 7?9). However, other studies have shown that a subpopula-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 50 tion of endogenous Cdc6 remains in the nucleus, bound to, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 51 chromatin, throughout the cell cycle (10 ?12). Phosphorylation, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 52 of Cdc6 also plays an important role in regulating the stability of, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 53 Cdc6. The N-terminal domain of Cdc6 contains RXXL (D box), otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 54 and KEN (KEN box) destruction motifs, which are binding sites, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 55 for the form of the APC/C containing the cdh1-targeting sub-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 56 unit (13). Cdc6 is polyubiquitinated and targeted for degrada-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 57 tion by APC/Ccdh1, which prevents formation of pre-RCs in, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 58 quiescent cells and during early G1 by maintaining low levels of, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 59 Cdc6 (14). Phosphorylation of Cdc6 by CDKs protects the pro-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 60 tein from degradation by blocking recognition by cdh1 result-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 61 ing in stabilization of Cdc6 during a window of time that allows, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 62 formation of pre-RCs during G1 (15). The importance of CDK-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 63 mediated stabilization of Cdc6 is also supported by evidence, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 64 showing that the cell cycle arrest caused by DNA damage is due, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 65 to dephosphorylation and degradation of Cdc6 (16)., otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 66 Because the extent of Cdc6 phosphorylation is controlled by, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 67 the opposing actions of cyclin-dependent kinases and protein, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 68 phosphatases, dephosphorylation of Cdc6 can also control for-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 69 mation of pre-RCs. Much less is known about mechanisms that, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 70 regulate Cdc6 dephosphorylation. A previous study identified a, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 71 fragment of PR70 as a member of the PPP2R3 family of PP2A, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 72 regulatory subunits that interacted with Cdc6 and implicated, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 73 PP2A in regulating Cdc6 phosphorylation (17). The major, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 74 forms of PP2A contain a dimeric core complex composed of a, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 75 scaffold (A) and a catalytic subunit (C). The AC core dimer, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 76 associates with regulatory subunits that form heterotrimeric, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 77 holoenzymes and target the catalytic subunit to specific phos-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 78 phoprotein substrates (18 ?20). In this study, the mechanism, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 79 and functional consequences of targeting of PP2A to Cdc6 by, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 80 PR70 were investigated.

Experiments with N-terminal truncation, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1266 mutants showed that PR70 can associate with Cdc6 independ-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1267 ently of the A- and C-subunits. This observation contrasts with, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1268 the prevailing view of PP2A in which the regulatory subunits, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1269 have been thought to be constitutively associated with the core, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1270 dimer (18 ?20). The importance of the existence of PP2A in, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1271 heterotrimeric forms is supported by data showing that some, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1272 PP2A regulatory subunits are only stable when incorporated, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1273 into holoenzymes (29 ?31). Overexpression of the PPP2R2 fam-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1274 ily member, B , leads to proteasome-dependent degradation of, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1275 the free protein but not protein incorporation into holoen-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1276 zymes (31). In contrast, several lines of evidence indicate that, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1277 members of the PPP2R3/PR72 family are stable regardless of, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1278 whether or not they are incorporated into holoenzymes. As, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1279 shown here, mutants of PR70 that cannot bind to PP2A accu-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1280 mulate to the same levels as the wild-type protein. The apparent, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1281 stability of PR70 is also independent of interaction with Cdc6,, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1282 because a mutant ( C) that interacts poorly with Cdc6 accu-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1283 mulates to similar levels. Similarly, mutations of the related, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1284 PR72 subunit that block interaction with the AC core dimer, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1285 have no effect on the levels of expressed protein (27). In addi-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1286 tion, the PR59 subunit is not degraded following loss of the, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1287 A-subunit (31). Thus, in contrast to the PPP2R2/B and, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1288 PPP2R5/B56 families of PP2A regulatory subunits, members of, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1289 the PPP2R3/PR72 family are stable proteins whose levels and, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1290 functional interactions with substrates and other proteins may, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1291 be independent of the core dimer of PP2A., otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1292 The stability of expressed PR70 may also account for its abil-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1293 ity to act in an apparent dominant-negative manner to increase, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1294 the levels of Cdc6. Excess free PR70 would associate with Cdc6, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1295 and displace endogenous PR70-AC holoenzyme. Loss of the, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1296 active AC core dimer from Cdc6 would inhibit dephosphoryl-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1297 ation leading to decreased ubiquitination by APC/Ccdh1 and, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1298 increase protein levels. A dominant-negative action of overex-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1299 pressed PR70 is supported by observations that the effects on, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1300 Cdc6 levels are not dependent on interaction of PR70 with the, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1301 AC core dimer (e.g. the N3 and EF1/2 mutants) but are, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1302 dependent on interaction with Cdc6 (e.g. the C mutant). Like, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1303 knockdown of PR70, the dominant-negative actions of PR70 to, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1304 increase Cdc6 levels appear to be dependent on intact phospho-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1305 rylation sites, because the levels of co-expressed DDD and AAA, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1306 mutants of Cdc6 were not significantly affected. Forced over-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1307 expression of the related PR72 subunit has also been reported, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1308 to act in a dominant-negative manner. Expression of either, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1309 wild-type PR72 or an EF-hand 2 mutant, which cannot bind the, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1310 AC core dimer, both cause G1 arrest in U2OS cells (27)., otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1311 The accumulation of cells with G0/G1 DNA content follow-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1312 ing knockdown by RNA interference is consistent with an, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1313 important role for PR70 in progression of cells through into S, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1314 phase. Similarly, overexpression of a fragment that contains the, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1315 complete R3 domain and the C terminus of PR70 (termed PR48, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1316 or N1 in this study) also causes G1 arrest, presumably through, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1317 a dominant-negative action (17). The G1 arrest in cells depleted, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1318 of PR70 coincides with an increase in Cdc6 protein levels. A, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1319 previous study showed that increases in phosphorylation and, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1320 stability of Cdc6 enhance formation of pre-replicative com-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1321 plexes (15). The increase in pre-replicative complex formation, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1322 would be expected to enhance entry into S phase. Consistent, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1323 with this idea, expression of exogenous wild-type Cdc6 leads to, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1324 accelerated entry into S phase (14). However, exogenous, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1325 expression of a non-phosphorylatable (AAA) mutant of Cdc6, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1326 (5) or an N-terminally truncated version of Cdc6, missing the, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1327 CDK phosphorylation sites and destruction motifs recognized, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1328 by APC/Ccdh1 (14), inhibit initiation of DNA replication and, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1329 entry into S phase. It is possible that, even though phosphoryl-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1330 ation is required for stabilization of Cdc6 and assembly of pre-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1331 replicative complexes during G1, an additional Cdc6 dephos-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1332 phorylation or degradation step is needed to initiate DNA, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1333 replication. Knockdown or overexpression of PR70 might, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1334 inhibit this step and retard entry into S phase. Although the, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1335 ability of PR70 knockdown to cause G1 arrest is consistent with, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1336 regulation of Cdc6, an equally likely possibility is that PR70, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1337 plays other roles during G1. PR70 may regulate the activity of, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1338 other proteins involved in cell cycle control, either through, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1339 PP2A-mediated dephosphorylation or actions that are inde-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1340 pendent of PP2A., otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1341 The effects of calcium on the PR70-dependent association of, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1342 PP2A with Cdc6 are consistent with a more general role for the, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1343 PPP2R3/PR72 family in mediating calcium-regulated dephos-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1344 phorylation. All four members of this family contain conserved, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1345 EF-hand sequence motifs (supplemental Fig. S1). The EF-hands, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1346 of PR72 are also functional calcium binding sites, and, similar to, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1347 PR70, calcium binding to the second EF-hand enhances inter-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1348 action with the A-subunit (27). PR72 has been shown to medi-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1349 ate calcium-dependent dephosphorylation of threonine-75 in, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1350 the dopamine- and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein of 32 kDa, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1351 (DARPP-32). This report showed that, in addition to the role of, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1352 EF-hand 2 in interaction with the AC core dimer, calcium bind-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1353 ing to EF-hand 1 increased the phosphatase activity of the, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1354 PR72-holoenzyme toward DARPP-32 (32). Both PR72 and its, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1355 alternative splice variant (PR130) have been reported to inter-, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1356 act with the mammalian Naked cuticle protein and regulate, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1357 Wnt signaling (33, 34).

The N-terminal domain of PR70,, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1366 which is not conserved with other members of the PPP2R3, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1367 family, is not required for interaction with either PP2A or Cdc6., otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1368 Deletion of the C-terminal region, including the PR70-unique, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1369 sequence and a portion of the conserved R3 domain, had no, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1370 effect on interaction with the PP2A core dimer but severely, otherFeat=[]-->, belongsTo=parr 1371 inhibited binding to Cdc6.

Davis1, Z>>>North Carolina 27710 4 The cell division control protein 6 (Cdc6) is essential for formation of pre-replication complexes at origins of DNA replication. Phosphorylation of Cdc6 by cyclin-dependent kinases inhibits ubiquitination of Cdc6 by APC/Ccdh1 and degradation by the proteasome. Experiments described here show that the PR70 member of the PPP2R3 family of regulatory subunits targets protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) to Cdc6. Interaction with Cdc6 is mediated by residues within the C terminus of PR70, whereas interaction with PP2A requires N-terminal sequences conserved within the PPP2R3 family. Two functional EF-hand calcium-binding motifs mediate a calcium-enhanced interaction of PR70 with PP2A. Calcium has no effect on the interaction of PR70 with Cdc6 but enhances the association of PP2A with Cdc6 through its effects on PR70. Knockdown of PR70 by RNA interference results in an accumulation of endogenous and expressed Cdc6 protein that is dependent on the cyclin-dependent protein kinase phosphorylation sites on Cdc6. Knockdown of PR70 also causes G1 arrest, suggesting that PR70 function is critical for progression into S phase. These observations indicate that PP2A can be targeted in a calcium-regulated manner to Cdc6 via the PR70 subunit, where it plays a role in regulating protein phosphorylation and stability.-->id=2, page=0, size=11, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=59--->[]--->parr The cell division co>>>ation and stability. 5 Precise regulation of DNA replication is necessary to ensure that daughter cells receive a complete and intact genome during mitosis. A crucial step in regulating DNA replication is the assembly of pre-replicative complexes at origins of replication (1). Coordination of DNA replication with the cell cycle is achieved through a periodic accumulation and destruction of proteins involved in formation of pre-RCs3 is mediated by cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and the E3 ubiquitin ligase, anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (2). The mammalian Cdc6 protein is required for DNA replication and acts in conjunction with the Cdt1 protein to recruit the mini-chromosome maintenance complex into pre-RCs (1, 3, 4). Mammalian cells have multiple mechanisms to ensure that pre-RCs only assemble during late M and G1, including regulation of the levels and function of Cdc6 (2).-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr Precise regulation o>>>unction of Cdc6 (2). 6 Mammalian Cdc6 is regulated by phosphorylation of multiple sites within its N-terminal domain by cyclin-dependent protein kinases. Cdc6 is phosphorylated at canonical CDK sites, including serines 54, 74, and 106 of human Cdc6 (5, 6). Experiments with exogenously expressed protein have shown that phosphorylation can regulate the nuclear localization of Cdc6 (5, 7­9). However, other studies have shown that a subpopulation of endogenous Cdc6 remains in the nucleus, bound to chromatin, throughout the cell cycle (10 ­12). Phosphorylation of Cdc6 also plays an important role in regulating the stability of Cdc6. The N-terminal domain of Cdc6 contains RXXL (D box) and KEN (KEN box) destruction motifs, which are binding sites for the form of the APC/C containing the cdh1-targeting subunit (13). Cdc6 is polyubiquitinated and targeted for degradation by APC/Ccdh1, which prevents formation of pre-RCs in quiescent cells and during early G1 by maintaining low levels of Cdc6 (14). Phosphorylation of Cdc6 by CDKs protects the protein from degradation by blocking recognition by cdh1 resulting in stabilization of Cdc6 during a window of time that allows formation of pre-RCs during G1 (15). The importance of CDKmediated stabilization of Cdc6 is also supported by evidence showing that the cell cycle arrest caused by DNA damage is due to dephosphorylation and degradation of Cdc6 (16).-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr Mammalian Cdc6 is re>>>dation of Cdc6 (16). 7 Because the extent of Cdc6 phosphorylation is controlled by the opposing actions of cyclin-dependent kinases and protein phosphatases, dephosphorylation of Cdc6 can also control formation of pre-RCs. Much less is known about mechanisms that regulate Cdc6 dephosphorylation. A previous study identified a fragment of PR70 as a member of the PPP2R3 family of PP2A regulatory subunits that interacted with Cdc6 and implicated PP2A in regulating Cdc6 phosphorylation (17). The major forms of PP2A contain a dimeric core complex composed of a scaffold (A) and a catalytic subunit (C). The AC core dimer associates with regulatory subunits that form heterotrimeric holoenzymes and target the catalytic subunit to specific phosphoprotein substrates (18 ­20). In this study, the mechanism and functional consequences of targeting of PP2A to Cdc6 by PR70 were investigated. The results show that PR70 interacts with PP2A and Cdc6 through distinct regions of the protein,-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr Because the extent o>>>ions of the protein, 8 * This work was supported, in whole or in part, by National Institutes of Health Grant GM49505.

U2OS, obtained from the ATCC, is a human osteosarcoma cell line that expresses wild-type p53. For transient expression of proteins, cells were transfected with expression plasmids using Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Cells were harvested either 24 or 48 h after transfection. Transfection with small interfering RNA to knock down PR70 was carried out using Oligofectamine (Invitrogen) following the manufacturer's protocol. Annealed duplex siRNAs were purchased from Dharmacon and had the following sequences: PR70-1, 5 -AGCCGGUCCUGAAGAUGAAdTdT-3 (sense strand) and PR70-2, 5 -AAAGCAUUCCGACCUUCUAdTdT-3 (sense strand). Controls included an siRNA that knocks down the MEKK2 protein kinase (22), an siRNA that knocks down protein phosphatase 5 (23), and an siRNA corresponding to the sequence of firefly luciferase (5 -TCGAAGTATTCCGCGTACGdTdT-3 ). Cells were lysed and analyzed by immunoblotting 48 h after transfection. In some experiments, cells were co-transfected with PR70 siRNA and expression plasmids encoding wild-type Cdc6 or Cdc6 mutants in which all three N-terminal phosphorylation sites were mutated to alanine (AAA-Cdc6) or aspartic acid (DDD-Cdc6) using Lipofectamine 2000 and harvested 48 h later. The cDNAs encoding phosphorylation site mutants of Cdc6 were prepared using a PCR-based site-directed mutagenesis kit (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer's protocol.

A full-length human PR70 cDNA was constructed by ligating expressed sequence tag BM54432 to the PR48 cDNA using an internal NcoI restriction site. The predicted open reading frame of the PR70 cDNA encodes a protein with a calculated molecular mass of 65.1-kDa and corresponds to the longer transcript (variant 1) of the PPP2R3B gene (GeneID: 28227). The predicted amino acid sequence of PR70 is highly similar to the human PR72 and mouse PR59 members of the PPP2R3 gene family, but more distantly related to the G5PR protein (supplemental Table S1). An alignment of the PPP2R3 family (supplemental Fig. S1) revealed a highly conserved central domain, termed the R3 domain, that contains two conserved EF-hand calcium binding motifs previously identified in PR72 (27). Rabbit antisera were raised against a peptide corresponding to the unique C terminus of PR70 and affinity purified on a peptide column. The purified antibodies recognized a protein band of Mr 70,000 in lysates of HeLa cells. The 70-kDa protein recognized by the antibody was greatly reduced in cells treated with two different siRNAs corresponding to sequences within PR70 but not with control siRNA (supplemental Fig. S2).-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr Interaction of PR70 >>>plemental Fig. S2). 93 To verify that PR70 associates with PP2A and Cdc6, HeLa lysates were immunoprecipitated with PR70 and Cdc6 antibodies. Immunoprecipitation of Cdc6 co-precipitated a diffuse protein band that migrated at the position of PR70 that was not present in immunoprecipitates obtained with the preimmune serum (Fig. 1A). The anti-Cdc6 serum also co-precipitated the A- and C-subunits of PP2A. Although the anti-PR70 antibodies co-precipitated the A- and C-subunits of PP2A (Fig. 1B), a complex between PR70 and Cdc6 could not be detected. The inability to detect Cdc6 may be due to steric hindrance by the antiC-terminal antibody, because the C terminus of PR70 is required for interaction with Cdc6 (see below). The association of PR70 with PP2A and Cdc6 was also tested in co-immunoprecipitation experiments using exogenously expressed proteins. FLAG-tagged PR70 was expressed in HeLa cells and immunoprecipitated with anti-FLAG antibodies. Analysis of the immunoprecipitates by immunoblotting showed that the endogenous A- and C-subunits of PP2A and HA-tagged Cdc6 co-precipitated with FLAG-PR70 (Fig. 1C). These results indicate that PR70 can interact with both the PP2A core dimer and Cdc6 in intact cells.-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr To verify that PR70 >>>dc6 in intact cells. 94 FIGURE 1.

The roles of these motifs were tested in a gel overlay assay with wild-type PR70 and PR70 containing inactivating mutations of the EF-hand motifs. Point mutants were constructed that had substitutions of amino acids involved in calcium binding (28), including alanine substitutions at both the x and y coordinates and a conservative change at the -z coordinate (Fig. 2A). Wild-type PR70 bound calcium in the in vitro 45Ca2 overlay assay (Fig. 2B). Mutation of the first EFhand (EF1) resulted in reduced binding of calcium compared with wild-type PR70. Mutation of the second EF-hand (EF2) severely reduced calcium binding, whereas the double mutation of EF1 and EF2 nearly abolished the ability of PR70 to bind calcium.-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr Calcium Enhances the>>>R70 to bind calcium. 114 Calcium binding causes a conformational change in the PR72 member of the PPP2R3 family that is associated with enhanced interaction with the A-subunit of PP2A (27). Therefore, the effects of calcium on the interaction of PR70 with PP2A and Cdc6 were determined. FLAG-tagged PR70 was expressed in COS-7 cells, which were lysed in buffer containing EGTA or calcium. The lysates were incubated with either GST-A or GST-Cdc6 and bound proteins detected by immunoblotting. FLAG-PR70 interacted with both GST-A and GST-Cdc6 but not GST alone (Fig. 2C, lanes 1­2 and 6­7). Compared with lysates prepared with standard buffer or EGTA, the addition of calcium enhanced the binding of PR70 to GST-A, but not to GST-Cdc6 (Fig. 2C, lanes 4 and 9). Although calcium did not enhance the binding of PR70 to GST-Cdc6, it did cause a significant increase in the amount of A- and C-subunits associated with GST-Cdc6 (Fig. 2C, lanes 9 and 10). Although an excess of calcium was used in the experiments shown in Fig. 2C, other experiments showed that enhanced binding of the AC core dimer was also observed at calcium concentrations of 100 M (not shown).-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr Calcium binding caus>>>f 100 M (not shown). 115 To test the function of the individual EF-hand motifs in the calcium-enhanced interaction with PP2A, GST pulldown experiments were performed with the calcium-binding mutants. Compared with assays in the presence of EGTA, the addition of calcium resulted in enhanced binding of wild-type PR70 and the EF1 mutant to GST-A, but not to GST-Cdc6 (Fig. 3A and B, lanes 2­5). Although it did not increase the amount of PR70 or the EF1 mutant associated with Cdc6, calcium did increase the association of the A- and C-subunits with GSTCdc6 (Fig. 3B, lanes 2­5). Mutation of EF2 or mutation of both EF1 and EF2 resulted in loss of the calcium-enhanced binding of PR70 to GST-A (Fig. 3A, lanes 6 ­9) and the calcium-dependent association of the A- and C-subunits with GST-Cdc6 (Fig. 3B, lanes 6 ­9).-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr To test the function>>>ig. 3B, lanes 6 ­9). 116 The effect of calcium on the interaction of PR70 with PP2A was also assessed by expression and immunoprecipitation in COS-7 cells. Both wild-type PR70 and the EF1 mutants interacted with endogenous PP2A (Fig. 3C, lanes 2­ 4). The EF1(-z) mutant interacted as well as wild-type PR70, but interaction of the EF1(x,y) mutant was reduced suggesting that mutation of the x and y residues causes a structural defect in PR70. Mutation of EF2, or both EF1 and EF2, resulted in a nearly complete loss of interaction with PP2A (Fig. 3C, lanes 5­ 8). A longer exposure of the blot showed that a weak interaction of the Aand C-subunits with the EF2 and EF1/EF2 double mutants could still be detected (Fig. 3C, OE). The combination of intact cell data and in vitro binding assays provide evidence that PR70 is a calcium binding protein and that interaction with the core dimer of PP2A is enhanced by binding of calcium to the second EF-hand motif. Calcium does not affect interaction of PR70 with Cdc6 but increases the association of the PP2A core dimer with Cdc6 in a manner dependent upon binding of calcium to the second EF-hand of PR70.-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr The effect of calciu>>>ond EF-hand of PR70. 117 PR70-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213,

S1 and S4A). The R3 domain is 66% identical and 82% conserved between human PR70 (PPP2R3B) and PR72 (PPP2R3A). A series of truncation mutants were constructed to identify regions within PR70 that were important for interaction with PP2A and Cdc6. FLAG-tagged mutants were expressed in COS-7 cells and immunoprecipitated with anti-FLAG antibody. The ability of the mutants to incorporate into endogenous PP2A heterotrimers was determined by immunoblotting for associated A- and C-subunits. The N1 mutant contains a deletion of the entire N-terminal PR70unique region and interacted with endogenous PP2A subunits to the same extent as full-length PR70 (Fig. 4B). Deletion of a C-terminal segment that included the PR70-unique region ( C) had little, if any, effect on the interaction with PP2A. However, deletions of N-terminal regions of the conserved R3 domain, N2 and N3, resulted in proteins that failed to interact with PP2A. These data indicated that the region between amino acids 125 and 136 of PR70 were necessary for interaction with the PP2A core dimer.-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr PP2A and Cdc6 Bind t>>>the PP2A core dimer. 192 The sequence between residues 125 and 136 of PR70 contains a hydrophobic motif (FYF) that was conserved in PPP2R3 proteins from humans to flies (Fig. 5A). The role of the FYF motif was tested by mutating these residues to alanines (Fig. 5B) and determining the effects on interaction with the AC core dimer. Mutation of any one of these residues resulted in a significant loss of interaction with endogenous PP2A (Fig. 5C). A longer exposure of the immunoblot showed that small amounts of the A- and C-subunits could be detected in immunoprecipitates of each of the mutants (not shown). Although the interaction of the FYF mutants was severely compromised in intact cells, these mutants still bound to PP2A when assayed in vitro by GST pulldown experiments (not shown). These results indicate that the FYF motif contributes to the interaction of PR70 with the A-subunit.-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr The sequence between>>> with the A-subunit. 193 The N- and C-terminal truncation mutants of PR70 were also tested for their ability to interact with Cdc6. Pulldown experiments with GST-Cdc6 were performed with full-length PR70, the N3, and the C mutants in the presence and absence of calcium. As expected, full-length PR70 and the C mutant interacted with the A-subunit of PP2A, whereas the N3 mutant did not (Fig. 6A). Furthermore, there was an enhanced interaction of PR70 and the C mutant in the presence of calcium. As shown previously with full-length PR70 (Fig. 2C), the enhanced binding of PR70 and the C mutant was accompanied by a decrease in the amount of C-subunit associated with GST-A (Fig. 6A, lanes 3 and 9). This decrease in associated C-subunit was not observed with the N3 mutant, which did not bind to GST-A. These observations suggest that the decrease in C-subunit in the presence of calcium is due to displacement of endogenous regulatory and catalytic subunits from GST-A by excess free PR70.-->id=10,

However, only full-length PR70 was able to recruit additional A- and C-subunits in the presence of calcium. In contrast, the C mutant bound very poorly to Cdc6 in the presence or absence of calcium. A low level of the A- and C-subunits was pulled down with GST-Cdc6 from lysates expressing the N3 or C mutants (Fig. 6B, lanes 5­ 6 and 8­9). Similar amounts of these subunits were also bound to GST-Cdc6 in lysates from non-transfected cells (not shown) suggesting that GST-Cdc6 can interact with endogenous A- and C-subunits in the absence of expressed PR70 (presumably by binding to endogenous PR70). The amounts of A- and C-subunits bound to GST-Cdc6 in experiments with the N3 or C mutants were increased in the presence of calcium. This observation provides additional support for the conclusion that calcium can regulate the association of PP2A with Cdc6 and shows that a C-terminal region of PR70, which includes the PR70-unique domain, is necessary for interaction with Cdc6.-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr Both full-length PR7>>>teraction with Cdc6. 283 PR70 Regulates Cdc6 Levels--Because phosphorylation of the N-terminal regulatory sites of Cdc6 inhibits degradation, loss of the phosphatase that dephosphorylates these sites should promote accumulation of Cdc6. Therefore, RNA interference was used to determine if knockdown of PR70 affected the levels of Cdc6. Knocking down the catalytic subunit of PP2A increased the levels of endogenous Cdc6 in HeLa cells (Fig. 7A). Treatment of cells with either a control siRNA or an siRNA that knocks down protein phosphatase 5 had no effect on Cdc6 levels. Knocking down the PR70 subunit also caused a substantial increase in the levels of Cdc6 (Fig. 7B). The increase in Cdc6 levels occurred with two PR70 siRNAs targeted to distinct regions of the mRNA. The accumulation of Cdc6 following knockdown with PR70-1 siRNA appeared to be greater than that with PR70-2 siRNA, which is consistent with the greater efficiency of the PR70-1 siRNA in reducing PR70 levels (supplemental Fig. S2). Phosphorylation site mutants of Cdc6 were then used to test the role of phosphorylation in the accumulation of Cdc6 caused by knockdown of PR70. Knockdown of PR70 caused an increase in the levels of expressed wild-type GFP-Cdc6 compared with transfection with a control siRNA (Fig. 7B). Transfection with a mutant of Cdc6 in which all three N-terminal phosphorylation sites had been mutated to phospho-mimicking aspartic acid residues (DDD-Cdc6) resulted in substantially higher levels of expression than those observed with the wild-type protein as previously reported (15). PR70-1 siRNA had little or no effect on the levels of DDD-Cdc6. The ability of PR70 knockdown to cause accumulation of Cdc6 was also greatly diminished when the phosphorylation sites were mutated to non-phosphorylatable alanine residues (AAACdc6). Similar results were seen in U2OS cells. These data indicate that knockdown of PR70 results in an increase in the levels of endogenous and exogenous Cdc6 that is dependent on the presence of phosphorylatable residues at the N-terminal phosphorylation sites.-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr PR70 Regulates Cdc6 >>>osphorylation sites. 284 C-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note C>>>C 285 A-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note A>>>A 286 FLAG-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note FLAG>>>FLAG 287 Em-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note Em>>>Em 288 pVec-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note pVec>>>pVec 289 AAA-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note AAA>>>AAA 290 AYA-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note AYA>>>AYA 291 FYA-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note FYA>>>FYA 292 FAF-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note FAF>>>FAF 293 AYF-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note AYF>>>AYF 294 PR70-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note PR70>>>PR70 295 DN3-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note DN3>>>DN3 296 IPTFYFPRGRP-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note IPTFYFPRGRP>>>IPTFYFPRGRP 297 IPRFYFGEGLP-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note IPRFYFGEGLP>>>IPRFYFGEGLP 298 VPAFYFPCGRP-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note VPAFYFPCGRP>>>VPAFYFPCGRP 299 IPKFYFPKGCP-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note IPKFYFPKGCP>>>IPKFYFPKGCP 300 IPRFYFPHGKP-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note IPRFYFPHGKP>>>IPRFYFPHGKP 301 Human PR70 Human PR72 Mouse PR59 Xenopus PR70 Drosophila PR72-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note Human PR70 Human PR7>>>PR70 Drosophila PR72 302 EF1 EF2-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note EF1 EF2>>>EF1 EF2 303 FYF motif-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note FYF motif>>>FYF motif 304 PR70-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note PR70>>>PR70 305 125-IPTFYFPRGRP-135-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note 125-IPTFYFPRGRP-135>>>125-IPTFYFPRGRP-135 306 IPTAYFPRGRP-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note IPTAYFPRGRP>>>IPTAYFPRGRP 307 IPTFAFPRGRP-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note IPTFAFPRGRP>>>IPTFAFPRGRP 308 IPTFYAPRGRP-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note IPTFYAPRGRP>>>IPTFYAPRGRP 309 IPTAYAPRGRP-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note IPTAYAPRGRP>>>IPTAYAPRGRP 310 IPTAAAPRGRP-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note IPTAAAPRGRP>>>IPTAAAPRGRP 311 WT AYF FAF FYA AYA AAA-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note WT AYF FAF FYA AYA A>>> AYF FAF FYA AYA AAA 312 A-->id=5010, page=6, size=23, fam=Times, col=#100f0d, type=title, textLines=3--->[]--->note A>>>A 313 B-->id=5010, page=6, size=23, fam=Times, col=#100f0d, type=title, textLines=3--->[]--->note B>>>B 314 C-->id=5010, page=6, size=23, fam=Times, col=#100f0d, type=title, textLines=3--->[]--->note C>>>C 315 Anti-FLAG IP-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note Anti-FLAG IP>>>Anti-FLAG IP 316 FIGURE 5.

When HeLa cells were transfected with expression plasmids containing the CMV promoter, FLAG-tagged PR70 was expressed at levels 5- to 10-fold higher than the endogenous protein (not shown). Co-expression of CDK2 and Cdc6 caused a substantial increase in Cdc6 levels as reported previously (15). Expression of wild-type PR70 caused an increase in the levels of both co-transfected and endogenous Cdc6 (Fig. 8A). Expression of the N3 or EF1/2 mutants, which cannot interact with the AC core dimer but bind to Cdc6, also increased the levels of Cdc6. In contrast, expression of the C mutant, which binds to the AC core dimer but not to Cdc6, had relatively little effect on the levels of exogenous or endogenous Cdc6. The potential role of phosphorylation in the effects of overexpressed PR70 was tested using the phosphorylation site mutants of Cdc6. Although co-expression of PR70 caused some increase in the levels of the AAA mutant of Cdc6, the effect was much less than its effect on wild-type Cdc6 (Fig. 8B). Similarly, co-expression of PR70 had little effect on the levels of the DDD mutant of Cdc6 even though endogenous Cdc6 was increased. Thus, the ability of overexpressed PR70 to cause accumulation of the protein was inhibited when the phosphorylation sites in Cdc6 were mutated. The effects of PR70 overexpression to cause accumulation of Cdc6 suggest it acts in a dominant-negative manner to block Cdc6 dephosphorylation (see "Discussion").-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr The effects of overe>>> (see "Discussion"). 360 Luc-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note Luc>>>Luc 361 PR70-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note PR70>>>PR70 362 Luc-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note Luc>>>Luc 363 Luc-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note Luc>>>Luc 364 Luc-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note Luc>>>Luc 365 PR70-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note PR70>>>PR70 366 PR70-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note PR70>>>PR70 367 PR70-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note PR70>>>PR70 368 EV-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note EV>>>EV 369 wtCdc6 DDD-Cdc6 AAA-Cdc6-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note wtCdc6 DDD-Cdc6 AAA->>>c6 DDD-Cdc6 AAA-Cdc6 370 GPDH-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note GPDH>>>GPDH 371 siRNA-->id=3, page=0, size=8, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=note, textLines=8--->[]--->note siRNA>>>siRNA 372 plasmid-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note plasmid>>>plasmid 373 GFP-Cdc6-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note GFP-Cdc6>>>GFP-Cdc6 374 B-->id=1, page=0, size=16, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=title, textLines=14--->[]--->note B>>>B 375 EV-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note EV>>>EV 376 wtCdc6 DDD-Cdc6 AAA-Cdc6-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note wtCdc6 DDD-Cdc6 AAA->>>c6 DDD-Cdc6 AAA-Cdc6 377 PR70 siRNA-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note PR70 siRNA>>>PR70 siRNA 378 C-->id=1, page=0, size=16, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=title, textLines=14--->[]--->note C>>>C 379 Luc siRNA-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note Luc siRNA>>>Luc siRNA 380 plasmid-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note plasmid>>>plasmid 381 D-->id=1, page=0, size=16, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=title, textLines=14--->[]--->note D>>>D 382 A-->id=1, page=0, size=16, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=title, textLines=14--->[]--->note A>>>A 383 Luc-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note Luc>>>Luc 384 PP2A-C-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note PP2A-C>>>PP2A-C 385 Mock-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note Mock>>>Mock 386 PP5-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note PP5>>>PP5 387 Cdc6-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note Cdc6>>>Cdc6 388 PP2A-C-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note PP2A-C>>>PP2A-C 389 PP5-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note PP5>>>PP5 390 siRNA-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note siRNA>>>siRNA 391 PR70-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note PR70>>>PR70 392 Cdc6-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note Cdc6>>>Cdc6 393 PR70-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note PR70>>>PR70 394 Actin-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->note Actin>>>Actin 395 Luc-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note Luc>>>Luc 396 Mock-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note Mock>>>Mock 397 PR70-1-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note PR70-1>>>PR70-1 398 PR70-2-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note PR70-2>>>PR70-2 399 siRNA-->id=3224, page=4, size=9, fam=Times, col=#121213, type=parrnote, textLines=142--->[]--->note siRNA>>>siRNA 400 FIGURE 7.

Knockdown of PR70 caused accumulation of cells in G0/G1 and depletion of cells in S and G2/M (Fig. 9). The apparent G1 arrest occurred with either of two siRNAs that target distinct regions of PR70. The level of G1 arrest correlated with the extent of PR70 knockdown. The lower levels of PR70 achieved with the PR70 siRNA-1 compared with PR70 siRNA-2 corresponded to a greater increase in the number of G1 cells (76% versus 65%). The G1 arrest caused by knockdown of PR70 supports a role for this PP2A regulatory subunit in progression through G1 phase.-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr Knockdown of PR70 Ca>>>on through G1 phase. 462 DISCUSSION-->id=5, page=0, size=13, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=title, textLines=62--->[]--->title DISCUSSION>>>DISCUSSION 463 The formation of pre-replicative complexes during the initiation of DNA replication is regulated, in part, by the availability of Cdc6. Cyclin-dependent kinases phosphorylate regulatory sites within the N-terminal domain of Cdc6 and block ubiquitination by APC/Ccdh1 and subsequent degradation by the proteasome (15). The results reported here help establish the form of PP2A complexed with the PR70 regulatory subunit as a physiological Cdc6 phosphatase and are consistent with a model in which PR70 targets PP2A to Cdc6 through direct protein-protein interactions. Knockdown of PR70 by RNA interference results in an increase in the levels of Cdc6 protein, consistent with a role for this subunit in regulating the stability of Cdc6. Overexpression of PR70 appeared to act in a dominant-negative manner to also increase the levels of Cdc6. The observations that increased protein levels did not occur with phosphorylation site mutants of Cdc6 are consistent with a role for PR70 in regulating Cdc6 phosphorylation and stability. A novel aspect of this model is the potential regulation of Cdc6 dephosphorylation by calcium. Calcium enhances the recruitment of the core dimer of PP2A to Cdc6 by binding to the EF-hand motifs of PR70, raising the possibility that changes in intracellular calcium can regulate the accumulation of Cdc6 and initiation of DNA replication. However, it remains to be determined if physiological changes in intracellular calcium-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr The formation of

Experiments with N-terminal truncation mutants showed that PR70 can associate with Cdc6 independently of the A- and C-subunits. This observation contrasts with the prevailing view of PP2A in which the regulatory subunits have been thought to be constitutively associated with the core dimer (18 ­20). The importance of the existence of PP2A in heterotrimeric forms is supported by data showing that some PP2A regulatory subunits are only stable when incorporated into holoenzymes (29 ­31). Overexpression of the PPP2R2 family member, B , leads to proteasome-dependent degradation of the free protein but not protein incorporation into holoenzymes (31). In contrast, several lines of evidence indicate that members of the PPP2R3/PR72 family are stable regardless of whether or not they are incorporated into holoenzymes. As shown here, mutants of PR70 that cannot bind to PP2A accumulate to the same levels as the wild-type protein. The apparent stability of PR70 is also independent of interaction with Cdc6, because a mutant ( C) that interacts poorly with Cdc6 accumulates to similar levels. Similarly, mutations of the related PR72 subunit that block interaction with the AC core dimer have no effect on the levels of expressed protein (27). In addition, the PR59 subunit is not degraded following loss of the A-subunit (31). Thus, in contrast to the PPP2R2/B and PPP2R5/B56 families of PP2A regulatory subunits, members of the PPP2R3/PR72 family are stable proteins whose levels and functional interactions with substrates and other proteins may be independent of the core dimer of PP2A.-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr Biochemical analysis>>> core dimer of PP2A. 541 The stability of expressed PR70 may also account for its ability to act in an apparent dominant-negative manner to increase the levels of Cdc6. Excess free PR70 would associate with Cdc6 and displace endogenous PR70-AC holoenzyme. Loss of the active AC core dimer from Cdc6 would inhibit dephosphorylation leading to decreased ubiquitination by APC/Ccdh1 and increase protein levels. A dominant-negative action of overexpressed PR70 is supported by observations that the effects on Cdc6 levels are not dependent on interaction of PR70 with the AC core dimer (e.g. the N3 and EF1/2 mutants) but are dependent on interaction with Cdc6 (e.g. the C mutant). Like knockdown of PR70, the dominant-negative actions of PR70 to increase Cdc6 levels appear to be dependent on intact phosphorylation sites, because the levels of co-expressed DDD and AAA mutants of Cdc6 were not significantly affected. Forced overexpression of the related PR72 subunit has also been reported to act in a dominant-negative manner. Expression of either wild-type PR72 or an EF-hand 2 mutant, which cannot bind the AC core dimer, both cause G1 arrest in U2OS cells (27).-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr The stability of exp>>> in U2OS cells (27). 542 The accumulation of cells with G0/G1 DNA content following knockdown by RNA interference is consistent with an important role for PR70 in progression of cells through into S phase. Similarly, overexpression of a fragment that contains the complete R3 domain and the C terminus of PR70 (termed PR48 or N1 in this study) also causes G1 arrest, presumably through a dominant-negative action (17). The G1 arrest in cells depleted of PR70 coincides with an increase in Cdc6 protein levels. A previous study showed that increases in phosphorylation and stability of Cdc6 enhance formation of pre-replicative complexes (15). The increase in pre-replicative complex formation would be expected to enhance entry into S phase. Consistent with this idea, expression of exogenous wild-type Cdc6 leads to accelerated entry into S phase (14). However, exogenous expression of a non-phosphorylatable (AAA) mutant of Cdc6 (5) or an N-terminally truncated version of Cdc6, missing the CDK phosphorylation sites and destruction motifs recognized by APC/Ccdh1 (14), inhibit initiation of DNA replication and entry into S phase. It is possible that, even though phosphorylation is required for stabilization of Cdc6 and assembly of prereplicative complexes during G1, an additional Cdc6 dephosphorylation or degradation step is needed to initiate DNA replication. Knockdown or overexpression of PR70 might inhibit this step and retard entry into S phase. Although the ability of PR70 knockdown to cause G1 arrest is consistent with regulation of Cdc6, an equally likely possibility is that PR70 plays other roles during G1. PR70 may regulate the activity of other proteins involved in cell cycle control, either through PP2A-mediated dephosphorylation or actions that are independent of PP2A.-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr The accumulation of >>>independent of PP2A. 543 The effects of calcium on the PR70-dependent association of PP2A with Cdc6 are consistent with a more general role for the PPP2R3/PR72 family in mediating calcium-regulated dephosphorylation. All four members of this family contain conserved EF-hand sequence motifs (supplemental Fig. S1). The EF-hands of PR72 are also functional calcium binding sites, and, similar to PR70, calcium binding to the second EF-hand enhances interaction with the A-subunit (27). PR72 has been shown to mediate calcium-dependent dephosphorylation of threonine-75 in the dopamine- and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein of 32 kDa (DARPP-32). This report showed that, in addition to the role of EF-hand 2 in interaction with the AC core dimer, calcium binding to EF-hand 1 increased the phosphatase activity of the PR72-holoenzyme toward DARPP-32 (32). Both PR72 and its alternative splice variant (PR130) have been reported to interact with the mammalian Naked cuticle protein and regulate Wnt signaling (33, 34). Calcium may therefore influence Wnt signaling through recruitment and/or regulation of PP2A associated with Naked cuticle. The other member of the PPP2R3 family, PR59, targets PP2A to the retinoblastoma-related p107 protein (35) and may provide a mechanism for calcium regulation of the cell cycle functions of p107.-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr The effects of calci>>>e functions of p107. 544 The sites involved in the interaction with PP2A and Cdc6 mapped to distinct regions of PR70, consistent with a role in bridging the two proteins. The N-terminal domain of PR70, which is not conserved with other members of the PPP2R3 family, is not required for interaction with either PP2A or Cdc6. Deletion of the C-terminal region, including the PR70-unique sequence and a portion of the conserved R3 domain, had no effect on interaction with the PP2A core dimer but severely inhibited binding to Cdc6. Conversely, deletion of N-terminal sequences within the conserved R3 domain blocked binding to the A-subunit but had no effect on interaction with Cdc6. The N-terminal region required for interaction with the A-subunit contains an FYF amino acid motif that plays a role in the interaction and is conserved between members of the PPP2R3 family. The A-subunit of PP2A is a HEAT repeat protein (36). The FYF motif in PR70 resembles the FG amino acid repeats (FXFG and GLFG) within the nucleoporin family of nuclear pore proteins. The nucleoporins interact with nuclear transport factors, including importin- , which are also HEAT repeat proteins. The FG repeats of nucleoporins bind to shallow hydrophobic pockets in importin- (37, 38). The A-subunit of PP2A contains exposed hydrophobic surfaces, predicted to play a role in interaction with the regulatory subunits (36), that are possible sites of interaction with the FYF motif of PR70.-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr The sites involved i>>>e FYF motif of PR70. 545 PR70 Targets PP2A to Cdc6-->id=1, page=0, size=16, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=title, textLines=14--->[]--->note PR70 Targets PP2A to>>>Targets PP2A to Cdc6 546 JUNE 6, 2008 · VOLUME 283 · NUMBER 23-->id=2, page=0, size=11, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=59--->['U']--->note JUNE 6, 2008 · VOLUM>>>LUME 283 · NUMBER 23 547 JOURNAL OF BIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY 16113-->id=2, page=0, size=11, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=59--->[]--->note JOURNAL OF BIOLOGICA>>>ICAL CHEMISTRY 16113 548 at-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[u'a']--->note at>>>at 549 Centro-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note Centro>>>Centro 550 Nacional-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note Nacional>>>Nacional 551 de-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note de>>>de 552 Investigaciones-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note Investigaciones>>>Investigaciones 553 Oncológicas,-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note Oncológicas,>>>Oncológicas, 554 on-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note on>>>on 555 May-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note May>>>May 556 28,-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note 28,>>>28, 557 2010-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note 2010>>>2010 558 www.jbc.org-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note www.jbc.org>>>www.jbc.org 559 Downloaded-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note Downloaded>>>Downloaded 560 from-->id=4, page=0, size=10, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=432--->[]--->note from>>>from 561 http://www.jbc.org/content/suppl/2008/04/09/M710313200.DC1.html-->id=6, page=0, size=7, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=32--->[]--->note http://www.jbc.org/c>>>/M710313200.DC1.html 562 Supplemental Material can be found at:-->id=6, page=0, size=7, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parrnote, textLines=32--->[]--->note Supplemental Materia>>>ial can be found at: 563 The requirement for the N-terminal region of the R3 domain of PR70 for binding to the A-subunit is distinct from results observed with the PR72 protein. A fragment of PR72 consisting of amino acids 219 ­ 473 (corresponding to residues 257­509 of PR70) interacts with the A-subunit in the yeast two-hybrid assay (27). This fragment of PR72 is missing the N-terminal region of the R3 domain. Two fragments of PR72 containing putative A-subunit binding domains prepared by in vitro translation (corresponding to residues 234 ­339 and 378 ­ 436 of PR70) interacted with the A-subunit in vitro using GST pulldown assays (39). These PR72 fragments also do not contain the conserved N-terminal region of the R3 domain that was necessary for interaction of PR70 with the AC core dimer in our assays. These observations indicate that additional regions of PR70, beyond those required in PR72, are required for binding to the A-subunit, or that the differences observed are due to different assays employed.-->id=10, page=0, size=12, fam=Times, col=#231f20, type=parr, textLines=906--->[]--->parr The requirement for >>>ent assays employed. 564 In summary, the present study shows that the PR70 regulatory subunit targets PP2A to Cdc6 and that PP2A is likely to be a physiological Cdc6 phosphatase.
