Research Abstract |
Tumor malignancy promotes cell invasion and metastasis, which is one of the factors that hamper effective cancer therapy. Tumor malignancy means that cancer cells frequently cause missegregation of chromosomes on every cell division to generate two daughter cells with distinct chromosome quantity; this cancer specific feature is called "chromosomal instability". In this study, we show that the centrosomal kinases, Lats1/2 and GAK, form three novel signaling pathways and regulate the stability of chromosomes: they are Aurora-A-Lats1/2-Aurora-B (ALB) and Chk1-Lats2-14-3-3-P-body (CLP) pathways for Lats1/2 and GAK-PP2A-B'gamma-Chk2/Condensin II (GBC) pathway for GAK. To realize efficient analysis, we generated knockout mice lacking Lats1, Lats2, GAK, Cyclin G1 and/or Cyclin G2 genes, and Lats2-defective cancer cells using TALEN/Crispr_Cas systems.
