BUB-1 accelerates non-merotelic end-on attachments via dynein, independently of the inhibitory effect on biorientation.

(A) Schematics of the potential mechanism for chromosome biorientation inhibition by BUB-1 in absence of HCP-1/2CENP-F. By orienting kinetochores relative to spindle poles, BUB-1 downstream partners RZZ and dynein-dynactin connect chromosomes in a mono-oriented conformation to short non-dynamic microtubules, leading to premature chromosome segregation. In absence of BUB-1, kinetochore mis-orientation enables the establishment of bioriented merotelic connections capable of resisting cortical traction forces. (B) Left: Representative images from time-lapse movies showing localisations of ZWL-1Zwilch::GFP and DNC-2::GFP on chromosomes (H2B::mCherry) in the indicated conditions, 100 s after NEBD. Right: Quantifications of the GFP signal on chromosomes 100 s after NEBD. Kruskall Wallis tests with Dunn’s correction for multiplicity were used to assess significance (ZWL-1::GFP bub-1(RNAi) p = 0,0276, ZWL-1::GFP hcp-1/2(RNAi) p = 0,0341, DNC-2::GFP bub-1(RNAi) p = 0,0015, DNC-2::GFP hcp-1(RNAi) p = 0,0671).

BUB-1 inhibits biorientation in absence of HCP-1/2CENP-F by preventing SKA complex recruitment.

(A) Schematics of the potential mechanism for chromosome biorientation inhibition by BUB-1 in absence of HCP-1/2CENP-F. BUB-1 limits attachment maturation by the SKA complex, leading to the incapacity for chromosomes to birorient when microtubules are short and non-dynamic. Co-depleting BUB-1 restores SKA complex recruitment, allowing the strengthening of attachments and therefore the establishment of biorientation even when microtubules are short and non-dynamic. (B) Left: Representative images from time-lapse movies showing the localization of SKA-1::GFP on chromosomes (H2B::mCherry) in the indicated conditions at metaphase. Right: Quantification of the GFP signal on chromosomes at metaphase.

Co-depleting BUB-1 limits AIR-2AuroraB-dependent attachment destabilization, allowing the strengthening of attachments and therefore the establishment of chromosome biorientation even when microtubules are short and non-dynamic.

BUB-1 limits merotely by balancing kinetochore microtubule assembly and kinetochore attachment maturation.

(A) Quantification of the percentage of embryos with chromosomes engaged in amphitelic and merotelic attachments in the indicated conditions. Representative images of merotelic and non merotelic segregations are shown based on the KNL-1::mCherry signal 20 s after anaphase onset. White arrowheads point toward kinetochore stretches. (B) Embryonic lethality in the indicated conditions. Kruskall Wallis tests with Dunn’s correction for multiplicity were used to assess significance (WT 15°C (n = 252 embryos) vs 20°C (n = 1934) p > 0,9999, WT 20°C vs 24°C (n = 2107) p > 0,9999, ∆KD 15°C (n = 352) vs 20°C (n = 1104) p = 0,0012, ∆KD 20°C vs 24°C (n = 751) p = 0,4722). (C) Embryonic lethality in the indicated conditions. Kruskall Wallis tests with Dunn’s correction for multiplicity were used to assess significance (WT (n = 2107 embryos) vs K718R;D847N (n = 2663) p < 0,0001, D814N (n = 2181) vs K718R;D847N p < 0,0001, K718R;D847N vs mdf-1(RNAi) (n = 3410) p < 0,0001). (D) Quantifications of the integrated signals measured on chromosomes for different GFP-tagged proteins as function of time from NEBD. (E) (I) In prometaphase, BUB-1 localises to kinetochores and favours amphitely via two independent mechanisms. Downstream of BUB-1, the RZZ complex, Spindly and dynein-dynactin orient kinetochores and regulate NDC-80 activity, leading to the acceleration of end-on attachment in a non-merotelic conformation. (II) BUB-1 further contributes to establishing amphitelic attachments by promoting kinetochore microtubule assembly via HCP-1/2CENP-F and CLS-2CLASP recruitment, while limiting attachment maturation via the SKA complex. (III) In metaphase, BUB-1 leaves kinetochores allowing attachment maturation by the SKA complex. Scale bar, 5 μm.
