| Abstract | Recent results suggest a role for topoIIα (topoisomerase IIα) in the fine-tuning of mitotic entry. Mitotic entry is accompanied by the formation of specific phosphoepitopes such as MPM-2 (mitotic protein monoclonal 2) that are believed to control mitotic processes. Surprisingly, the MPM-2 kinase of topoIIα was identified as protein kinase CK2, otherwise known as a constitutive interphase kinase. This suggested the existence of alternative pathways for the creation of mitotic phosphoepitopes, different from the classical pathway where the substrate is phosphorylated by a mitotic kinase. In the present paper, we report that topoIIα is co-localized with both CK2 and PP2A (protein phosphatase 2A) during interphase. Simultaneous incubation of purified topoIIα with CK2 and PP2A had minimal influence on the total phosphorylation levels of topoIIα, but resulted in complete disappearance of the MPM-2 phosphoepitope owing to opposite sequence preferences of CK2 and PP2A. Accordingly, short-term exposure of interphase cells to okadaic acid, a selective PP2A inhibitor, was accompanied by the specific appearance of the MPM-2 phosphoepitope on topoIIα. During early mitosis, PP2A was translocated from the nucleus, while CK2 remained in the nucleus until pro-metaphase thus permitting the formation of the MPM-2 phosphoepitope. These results underline the importance of protein phosphatases as an alternative way of creating cell-cycle-specific phosphoepitopes. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
