Proliferating Cell

In this study, experimental conditions are described that allowed us to follow the fate of the DNA polymerase delta-associated proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), by immunolabeling during the overall cell cycle. Differences in subcellular localization or the presence of PCNA allowed us to identify each phase of the cell cycle. Using these cell cycle markers in dog thyroid epithelial cells in primary culture, we found unexpected differences in cell cycle kinetics, in response to stimulations through cAMP-dependent and cAMP-independent pathways. These provide a new dimension to the view that the two pathways are largely separate, but co-operate on DNA synthesis initiation. More precisely, thyrotropin (TSH), acting via cAMP, exerts a potent triggering effect on DNA synthesis, associated with a precocious induction of PCNA appearance. This constitutes the major influence of TSH (cAMP) in determining cell cycle progression, which is only partly moderated by TSH-dependent lengthening of S- and G2-phases.

We have cloned a novel cDNA (Spa-1) which is little expressed in the quiescent state but induced in the interleukin 2-stimulated cycling state of an interleukin 2-responsive murine lymphoid cell line by differential hybridization. Spa-1 mRNA (3.5 kb) was induced in normal lymphocytes following various types of mitogenic stimulation. In normal organs it is preferentially expressed in both fetal and adult lymphohematopoietic tissues. A Spa-1-encoded protein of 68 kDa is localized mostly in the nucleus. Its N-terminal domain is highly homologous to a human Rap1 GTPase-activating protein (GAP), and a fusion protein of this domain (SpanN) indeed exhibited GAP activity for Rap1/Rsr1 but not for Ras or Rho in vitro. Unlike the human Rap1 GAP, however, SpanN also exhibited GAP activity for Ran, so far the only known Ras-related GTPase in the nucleus. In the presence of serum, stable Spa-1 cDNA transfectants of NIH 3T3 cells (NIH/Spa-1) hardly overexpressed Spa-1 (p68), and they grew as normally as did the parental cells. When NIH/Spa-1 cells were serum starved to be arrested in the G1/G0 phase of the cell cycle, however, they, unlike the control cells, exhibited progressive Spa-1 p68 accumulation, and following the addition of serum they showed cell death resembling mitotic catastrophes of the S phase during cell cycle progression. The results indicate that the novel nuclear protein Spa-1, with a potentially active Ran GAP domain, severely hampers the mitogen-induced cell cycle progression when abnormally and/or prematurely expressed. Functions of the Spa-1 protein and its regulation are discussed in the context of its possible interaction with the Ran/RCC-1 system, which is involved in the coordinated nuclear functions, including cell division.
