Figure EV3. The FDF motif of CENP-U directly binds to the composite interface between Scc1 and SA2.

Figure EV3

(A) Structural superposition of Scc1-SA2 (purple and cyan) bound to CENP-U (orange) and CTCF (purple-blue). F44, F46 of CENP-U and Y226, F228 of CTCF are shown in stick. (B) Fo-Fc omit electron-density Fourier map contoured at 2.0 σ. Residues of CENP-U are shown in orange, and SA2 and Scc1 are in green and blue, respectively. (C) HeLa cell lysates were subjected to pull-down with GST or GST-CENP-U (1–60) in the forms of WT, ADA, and FKF, followed by immunoblotting with antibodies for Scc1 and SA2, and CBB staining. (D) Lysates prepared from HEK-293T cells transiently expressing CENP-U-GFP in the forms of WT, ADA, and the indicated fragments were subjected to pull-down with GST or GST-Scc1-SA2, followed by immunoblotting with the antibody for GFP, and CBB staining. (E) U2OS-LacO cells transiently expressing the indicated proteins were stained with antibodies for the Flag-tag, Myc-tag, and DAPI. Example images are shown. (F) U2OS-LacO cells transiently expressing the indicated proteins were stained with the antibody for Plk1, and DAPI. Example images are shown. (G) Lysates prepared from HEK-293T cells transiently expressing SFB-CENP-Q and CENP-U-GFP (WT or ADA) were subjected to pull-down with GST or GST-Scc1-SA2, followed by immunoblotting with antibodies for GFP and the Flag-tag, and CBB staining. Data information: The white arrows point to the LacO repeats (E, F). Scale bars, 10 µm (E, F). Irrelevant lanes were removed (C, D, G).
