Proximity Labeling Reveals Spatial Regulation of the Anaphase-Promoting Complex/Cyclosome by a Microtubule Adaptor.

The anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) coordinates advancement through mitosis via temporally controlled polyubiquitination events. Despite the long-appreciated spatial organization of key events in mitosis mediated largely by cytoskeletal networks, the spatial regulation of APC/C, the major mitotic E3 ligase, is poorly understood. We describe a microtubule-resident protein, PLEKHA5, as an interactor ...
of APC/C and spatial regulator of its activity in mitosis. Microtubule-localized proximity biotinylation tools revealed that PLEKHA5 depletion decreased APC/C association with the microtubule cytoskeleton, which prevented efficient loading of APC/C with its coactivator CDC20 and led to reduced APC/C E3 ligase activity. PLEKHA5 knockdown delayed mitotic progression, causing accumulation of APC/C substrates dependent upon the PLEKHA5-APC/C interaction in microtubules. We propose that PLEKHA5 functions as an adaptor of APC/C that promotes its subcellular localization to microtubules and facilitates its activation by CDC20, thus ensuring the timely turnover of key mitotic APC/C substrates and proper progression through mitosis.
