A short SAS-5 segment promotes protein aggregation.
(A, B) Coomassie-stained SDS-PAGE of metal-affinity purified SAS-5 variants, corresponding to MsyB-tagged full-length protein and C-terminal truncations (A). The expected SAS-5-MsyB protein bands are indicated by black arrows. Soluble protein yields increased significantly upon truncation of residues 280–296 (compare lanes 3 and 4). Excision of this protein segment (SAS-5Δ282–295-MsyB) or substitution by a flexible linker (SAS-5FLEX-MsyB) improved soluble yields of the full-length protein (B, compare to right-most lane of panel A).

The SAS-5 coiled coil forms a parallel trimer.
(A) Schematic representation of the SAS-5CC crystallographic structure in purple. The protein N- and C-termini are indicated, as is the area where successive molecules intercalate in the crystal, leading to distortions of the coiled-coil structure; an intercalating molecule is shown here in white. (B,C) Average distance between the centers of the three α-helices at the N-terminus (B) or the C-terminus (C) of the coiled coil as a function of time in MD simulations. The distances at the initially frayed ends of the coiled coil decreased rapidly from ∼16 nm to ∼11 nm as the structure converged to a canonical trimeric arrangement. (D) Schematic representation of the coiled-coil structure at the start (left, purple) and the end (right, grey) of MD simulations. The helix centers whose distances are plotted in panels B and C are shown as blue and red spheres, respectively. (E,F) Magnified view of the coiled-coil hydrophobic core from the crystallographic structure. Residues at the C-terminus (E) and N-terminus (F) of the coiled coil are shown as sticks; charged substitutions at L141 and M167 disrupted coiled-coil oligomerization. (G) Overlay of SEC-MALS chromatograms of SAS-5CC-L at multiple concentrations, showing scaled light scattering intensity vs elution volume. The calculated molecular weight for each trace is shown as continuous line over the chromatogram peak, and corresponds to the right–hand axis. Chromatograms of samples at the highest two concentrations show evidence of protein overloading on the size-exclusion column. (H) Plot of average molecular weight from SEC-MALS analysis as a function of on-column protein concentration. The apparent Kd, and molecular sizes of monomers, dimers and trimers are indicated.

The SAS-5 Implico domain comprises a novel type of protein dimer.
(A) Overlay of SEC-MALS chromatograms of SAS-5Imp in multiple concentrations showing formation of a stable dimer. (B) Two orthogonal views of the SAS-5Imp crystallographic structure in schematic representation. The α-helices are denoted A1–A3 and B1–B3 for the two protein chains (red and grey, respectively). The N- and C-termini are indicated. (C) Magnified view of a single SAS-5Imp protein chain in schematic representation, showing the proline residues (space-filling representation) at the tight turns between α-helices. (D) Two views of the SAS-5Imp dimeric interface, with one chain represented as surface and the other as ribbon. Hydrophobic residues at the dimer interface are shown as sticks on the ribbon chain, and their location is indicated on the surface. Surface colors are a gradient from blue to orange representing residue hydrophobicity in the Kyte-Doolittle scale (Kyte and Doolittle, 1982). Blue corresponds to −4.5 in this scale (most hydrophilic), white to 0 and orange to 4.5 (most hydrophobic).

SAS-5 forms higher-order assemblies in solution.
(A) Overlay of SEC-MALS chromatograms of MsyB-tagged SAS-5FLEX in multiple concentrations and (B) plot of average molecular weight from SEC-MALS analysis as a function of on-column protein concentration. The apparent Kd and molecular sizes of dimers, tetramers and hexamers are indicated. SAS-5FLEX-MsyB reaches an equimolar hexamer to tetramer ratio at the highest concentration we could assess. Fitting the experimental data under the assumption of ultimate hexamer formation yielded Kd values comparable to those of the SAS-5 coiled coil in isolation (compared B with Figure 2H). (C,D) Similar SEC-MALS analysis of MsyB-tagged SAS-52–265. SAS-52–265-MsyB reaches a 3:1 hexamer to tetramer ratio at the highest concentration point. (E) Native mass-spectrometry electrospray ionization spectrum of a 20 μM sample of SAS-52–265, showing relative abundance of protein species as a function of mass to charge ratio. The charged states and protein oligomeric forms corresponding to specific peaks are indicated. Odd-numbered oligomeric forms (monomers, trimers etc) likely correspond to in-flight breakdown of higher- order protein assemblies.

Both SAS-5 oligomerization interfaces are essential for centriole duplication in C. elegans embryos.
Wild type (A,B), gfp::sas-5 (C), gfp::sas-5[L141E] (D), and gfp::sas-5[I247E] (E) adult worms were subjected to sas-5(RNAi) or left untreated (A). The resulting embryos were imaged by time-lapse DIC microscopy (A–E, see corresponding Videos 1–5) or fixed and analyzed by immunofluorescence (F–H). (A–E) Embryos at the onset of cleavage furrow ingression (top) and at the end of the second cell cycle (bottom); time stamp in mm:ss from the beginning of cleavage furrow ingression at the first mitosis. The percentage of embryos that reach the four-cell stage is shown below each image, along with the number of embryos (n) analyzed per condition. (F–H) Embryos stained with antibodies against GFP (green) and the centriolar marker IFA (magenta); DNA is visualized in blue. Scale bar 10 μm. Insets are fivefold enlargements of boxed regions. (I) Centrosomal GFP localization was scored in one-cell stage embryos as shown in panels F–H as absent, weak focus or strong focus.
Figure 6—figure supplement 1
GFP-SAS-5 and mutants are expressed, and resistant to sas-5 RNAi.
Wild type (A, E, F), gfp::sas-5 (B), gfp::sas-5 L141E (C), and gfp::sas-5 I247E (D) worms were treated with sas-5 RNAi (A–D) or simultaneous gfp and sas-5 RNAi (E, F), and the resulting embryos imaged by dual DIC and fluorescence time-lapse microscopy. Top panels: one-cell stage embryos, bottom panels: same embryo ∼25 min later. GFP images are maximum intensity projections of 8 z-sections taken at 0.5 μm intervals. Time from the first image is shown in mm:ss. Insets in panels B, C, E and F show 2.5 fold enlargements of boxed regions. (G) Quantification of GFP fluorescence intensity in live one-cell stage embryos, shown as a percentage of the average value for wild-type GFP-SAS-5. Rescue of endogenous sas-5 depletion upon dual RNAi treatment depended on the level of exogenous GFP-SAS-5 expression. Importantly, note that levels of GFP-SAS-5 below those of either of the GFP-SAS-5 mutants, reduced using gfp RNAi, were able to rescue the sas-5 (RNAi) phenotype, indicating that the lack of rescue in the latter two strains is not due to insufficient expression levels. To rule out the possibility of sas-5 (RNAi) rescue being due to dilution of the sas-5 RNAi with gfp RNAi, embryos expressing GFP-SAS-5 L141E were scored under the same conditions, with all embryos showing the sas-5 (RNAi) phenotype (data not shown) Furthermore, GFP-SAS-5 levels at only ∼5% of the levels in the sas-5 (RNAi) condition, failed to rescue, further indicating that sas-5 (RNAi) is functional under these conditions. (H) Western blots of 50 adult worms from each indicated strain probed with antibodies against SAS-5 or GFP, as indicated, and against α-tubulin as loading control. Molecular weight markers are indicated as black dashes. Endogenous SAS-5 exists as two isoforms: the long 404 amino acid isoform and a shorter 288 amino acid isoform, which is likely the result of trans-splicing (Wormbase, F35B12.5c). Note that exogenous gfp::sas-5 results in the expression of the longer isoform only.
Figure 7
The SAS-5 architecture allows formation of higher oligomers.
Schematic representation of SAS-5 oligomerization, showing the coiled-coil and Implico domains, without the disordered N- and C-termini of this protein. Tight dimers of SAS-5, mediated by the Implico domain, could come together through the coiled coil to form, first, a tetramer and ultimately a hexamer in a concentration-dependent manner. This oligomerisation model does not take into account protein aggregation mediated by the predicted β-strand at the SAS-5 C-terminus.
Figure 8
Hypothetical mechanism of SAS-5 function.
(A) SAS-5 forms tight dimers in the cytoplasm, and it may also associate with SAS-6 dimers depending on the relative levels of each protein. (B) SAS-5 localizes at the centriole, where it forms higher-order assemblies. These assemblies bring together multiple SAS-6 dimers in close proximity to one another, thereby increasing the local SAS-6 concentration. Thus, SAS-5 assemblies create a seeding point from which the SAS-6 oligomer forms (C); the first step in creating the C. elegans central tube.
