我们利用rna介导干扰(RNAi)技术研究了胞质动力蛋白在秀丽隐杆线虫微管组织中心(MTOC)定位中的作用,以消耗动力蛋白重链基因dhc-1的产物。延时差示干涉对比显微镜和间接免疫荧光分析显示,dhc-1 (RNAi)胚胎在一个细胞期的原核迁移和中心体分离失败。当RNAi耗尽动力蛋白组分p50/动力蛋白或p150glue时,也观察到这些表型。此外,在15%的dhc-1 (RNAi)胚胎中,中心体未能保持在雄性原核附近。当动力蛋白重链功能被RNAi部分削弱时,中心体分离发生,但有丝分裂纺锤体的定向有缺陷。因此,细胞质动力蛋白在线虫胚胎单细胞期MTOC定位的多个方面都是必需的。结合我们对细胞核外围细胞质动力蛋白分布的观察,这些结果使我们提出了锚定在细胞核上的细胞质动力蛋白驱动着中心体分离的机制。
We have investigated the role of cytoplasmic dynein in microtubule organizing center (MTOC) positioning using RNA-mediated interference (RNAi) in Caenorhabditis elegans to deplete the product of the dynein heavy chain gene dhc-1. Analysis with time-lapse differential interference contrast microscopy and indirect immunofluorescence revealed that pronuclear migration and centrosome separation failed in one cell stage dhc-1 (RNAi) embryos. These phenotypes were also observed when the dynactin components p50/dynamitin or p150Glued were depleted with RNAi. Moreover, in 15% of dhc-1 (RNAi) embryos, centrosomes failed to remain in proximity of the male pronucleus. When dynein heavy chain function was diminished only partially with RNAi, centrosome separation took place, but orientation of the mitotic spindle was defective. Therefore, cytoplasmic dynein is required for multiple aspects of MTOC positioning in the one cell stage C. elegans embryo. In conjunction with our observation of cytoplasmic dynein distribution at the periphery of nuclei, these results lead us to propose a mechanism in which cytoplasmic dynein anchored on the nucleus drives centrosome separation.
