| Popis: | In mammalian cells, the nucleoli disintegrate during mitosis and some nucleolar proteins disperse at the periphery of all chromosomes forming a novel class of chromosomal passenger proteins. The nucleolar components which participate in the formation of this perichromosomal layer have been investigated to elucidate the role of these perichromosomal proteins in the assembly and disassembly of the nucleoli. i) Electron microscopy immunolabelling reveals that these proteins are predominantly located in the granular component of the nucleoli during interphase. ii) Immunoprecipitation data suggest that they are distributed at the chromosome periphery in association with U3 small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA). In addition, the distribution of U3 snoRNA visualized by in situ hybridization, is similar to that observed for the perichromosomal proteins. iii) In cells which possess a nucleolar remnant during mitosis, U3 snoRNA and perichromosomal proteins were found both in the perichromosomal layer and in the nucleolar remnant. iv) Some of these proteins are conserved from yeast to man such as fibrillarin and a protein of 52 kDa. v) The location of these proteins observed in yeast by confocal microscopy shows that they are not dispersed during mitosis. Their partition between the two daughter cells is performed by scission of nucleolar structures forming a rod during the budding process. Therefore RNP complexes related to the processing steps of ribosome biogenesis in mammalian cells quit the nucleolus in late G2 and associate with the chromosome periphery until late telophase. They associate in the perichromosomal layer in human and PtK1 cells and both in the perichromosomal layer and the nucleolar remnant in CHO cells. |
