Fig. 5. Aurora B phosphorylates condensin I regulatory subunits in vitro and in vivo. (A-C) Condensin was purified by immunoprecipitation from EGFP-FLAG-kleisin-
(A), EGFP-FLAG-Cap-D2 (B) (both condensin I) and EGFP-FLAG-kleisin-
(C) (condensin II) cell lines. Immunoprecipitates were incubated either with or without recombinant Aurora B and [
-32P]ATP in vitro, resolved on a gel, silver stained (Silver) and exposed (32P). The identity of the bands was determined by mass spectrometry. (D) Condensin I (EGFP-FLAG-kleisin-
, first panel) and condensin II (EGFP-FLAG-kleisin-
, second panel) were immunoprecipitated either from interphase (hydroxyurea arrested; HU) or mitotic cells (Nocodazole arrested; Noc) and analysed for electrophoretic mobility shifts that are sensitive to pre-treatment of the HeLa cells with Hesperadin (100 nM for 1 hour) or to treatment of the immunoprecipitates with
-phosphatase. Total mitotic extracts (ME) were probed with antibodies against H3S10ph to monitor Aurora B activity and against cyclin B to verify that cells were in mitosis.
