Mitochondrial fission and fusion cycles are integrated with cell cycle progression. Here we first re-visited how mitochondrial ETC inhibition disturbed mitosis progression, resulting in multipolar spindles formation in HeLa cells. Inhibitors of ETC complex I (rotenone, ROT) and complex III (antimycin A, AA) decreased the phosphorylation of Plk1 T210 and Aurora A T288 in the mitotic phase (M-phase), especially ROT, affecting the dynamic phosphorylation status of fission protein dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) and the Ser637/Ser616 ratio. We then tested whether specific Drp1 inhibitors, Mdivi-1 or Dynasore, affected the dynamic phosphorylation status of Drp1. Similar to the effects of ROT and AA, our results showed that Mdivi-1 but not Dynasore influenced the dynamic phosphorylation status of Ser637 and Ser616 in Drp1, which converged with mitotic kinases (Cdk1, Plk1, Aurora A) and centrosome-associated proteins to significantly accelerate mitotic defects. Moreover, our data also indicated that evoking mito-Drp1-Ser637 by protein kinase A (PKA) rather than Drp1-Ser616 by Cdk1/Cyclin B resulted in mitochondrial fission via the PINK1/Parkin pathway to promote more efficient mitophagy and simultaneously caused multipolar spindles. Collectively, this study is the first to uncover that mito-Drp1-Ser637 by PKA, but not Drp1-Ser616, drives mitophagy to exert multipolar spindles formation during M-phase.
线粒体的分裂和融合循环与细胞周期的进展相整合。在这里,我们首先重新探讨了线粒体 ETC 抑制如何干扰有丝分裂进程,导致 HeLa 细胞中形成多极纺锤体。ETC 复合物 I(鱼藤酮,ROT)和 III 抑制剂(抗霉素 A,AA)抑制有丝分裂期(M 期)Plk1 T210 和 Aurora A T288 的磷酸化,特别是 ROT,影响分裂蛋白 dynamin-related protein 1(Drp1)的动态磷酸化状态和 Ser637/Ser616 比值。然后,我们测试了特定的 Drp1 抑制剂 Mdivi-1 或 Dynasore 是否会影响 Drp1 的动态磷酸化状态。与 ROT 和 AA 的作用相似,我们的结果表明 Mdivi-1 而不是 Dynasore 影响 Drp1 的 Ser637 和 Ser616 的动态磷酸化状态,这与有丝分裂激酶(Cdk1、Plk1、Aurora A)和中心体相关蛋白的作用一致,可显著加速有丝分裂缺陷。此外,我们的数据还表明,蛋白激酶 A(PKA)引发的 mito-Drp1-Ser637 而不是 Cdk1/Cyclin B 引发的 Drp1-Ser616 可通过 PINK1/Parkin 途径引发线粒体分裂,以促进更有效的线粒体自噬,并同时导致多极纺锤体。总之,这项研究首次揭示了 PKA 引发的 mito-Drp1-Ser637 而不是 Drp1-Ser616 驱动线粒体自噬,在 M 期发挥作用导致多极纺锤体形成。
