Charakterizace uzavřené mitózy u kvasinky Schizosaccharomyces pombe s narušeným metabolismem lipidů

Hohoš, Patrik

[EN] The division of an eukaryotic cell is mediated by the process of mitosis. It is a complex cellular process which needs to be highly regulated. In contrast to the mammalian open type of mitosis when nuclear envelope is disassembled, fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe undergoes closed mitosis inside the intact nuclear compartment. Cell nucleus undergoes morphological changes as a common sphere-shaped nucleus stretches upon mitotic spindle activity forming typical dumbbell structure. Further tension results in the separation of two daughter nuclei. Such extensive changes in the nuclear envelope surface demand a sufficient supply of membrane phospholipids. Cells with perturbed lipid metabolism are unable to meet such a demand and the mitotic division in these cells usually results as a catastrophic mitotic event or CUT (Cell Untimely Torn) phenotype. Moreover, recent studies show genetic interactions between the deletions of the lipid gene regulator cbf11 and factors maintaining the centromere chromatin structure. Surprisingly, rescue of CUT phenotype has been recently reported after the deletion of several factors contributing to the centromeric H3K9 epigenetic modifications in the cells lacking the transcription factor Cbf11. Here we show no rescue of CUT phenotype after the deletion of...
