Abstract | p73 is a p53 paralog that encodes proapoptotic (transactivation-competent (TA)) and antiapoptotic (dominant negative) isoforms. TAp73 transcription factors mediate cell cycle arrest and/or apoptosis in response to DNA damage and are involved in developmental processes in the central nervous system and the immune system. p73 proteins may also play a role in the regulation of cell growth. Indeed, p73 expression is itself modulated during the cell cycle and TAp73 proteins accumulate in S phase cells. In addition, the function of p73 proteins is also regulated by post-translational modifications and protein-protein interactions in different cellular and pathophysiological contexts. Here we show that p73 is a physiological target of the p34cdc2-cyclin B mitotic kinase complex in vivo. Both p73beta and p73alpha isoforms are hyperphosphorylated in normal mitotic cells and during mitotic arrest induced by microtubule-targeting drugs. p34cdc2-cyclin B phosphorylates and associates with p73 in vivo, which results in a decreased ability of p73 to both bind DNA and activate transcription in mitotic cells. Indeed, p73 is excluded from condensed chromosomes in meta- and anaphase, redistributes throughout the mitotic cytoplasm, and unlike p53, shows no association with centrosomes. Together these results indicate that M phase-specific phosphorylation of p73 by p34cdc2-cyclin B is associated with negative regulation of its transcriptional activating function. |
