Model for the synergistic role of Alp16GCP6 and Mzt1 in spindle microtubule assembly. A model for the assembly of γTuSC and γTuRC rings at mitotic SPBs. (A) The γTuSC is recruited to Pcp1, the γTuC receptor at mitotic SPBs, where the γTuSC ring is assembled. Mzt1 is essential for this recruitment. (B) The γTuRC ring is assembled in the presence of Alp16GCP6. Alp16GCP6 binds to Gfh1GCP4 and to Alp4GCP2 or Alp6GCP3 in the absence of Gfh1GCP4. (C) The γTuRC ring is recruited to Pcp1 at mitotic SPBs in the presence of Mzt1. This recruitment occurs more efficiently than with γTuSC ring assembly at mitotic SPBs. (D) Alp16GCP6 promotes γTuRC ring assembly at mitotic SPBs in the presence of Mzt1. (E) Mzt1 fully activates the γTuRC at mitotic SPBs.
