ABSTRACT
Bub1 is a conserved mitotic kinase involved in signaling of the spindle assembly checkpoint. Multiple phosphorylation sites on Bub1 have been characterized, yet it is challenging to understand the interplay between the multiple phosphorylation sites due to the limited availability of phosphospecific antibodies. In addition, phosphoregulation of Bub1 in Schizosaccharomyces pombe is poorly understood. Here we report the identification of a new Mph1/Mps1-mediated phosphorylation site, i.e., Ser532, of Bub1 in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. A phosphospecific antibody against phosphorylated Bub1-Ser532 was developed. Using the phosphospecific antibody, we demonstrated that phosphorylation of Bub1-Ser352 was mediated specifically by Mph1/Mps1 and took place during early mitosis. Moreover, live-cell microscopy showed that inhibition of the phosphorylation of Bub1 at Ser532 impaired the localization of Bub1, Mad1, and Mad2 to the kinetochore. In addition, inhibition of the phosphorylation of Bub1 at Ser532 caused anaphase B lagging chromosomes. Hence, our study constitutes a model in which Mph1/Mps1-mediated phosphorylation of fission yeast Bub1 promotes proper kinetochore localization of Bub1 and faithful chromosome segregation.
