Figure S2, related to Figure 1: Purified Flag-M18BP1-2747-944 recapitulates cell cycle regulated CENP-A nucleosome binding A) M18BP1 binding of CENP-A chromatin is restricted to interphase. CENP-A chromatin binding of full-length in vitro translated Flag-M18BP1-2 was assayed in either metaphasearrested or interphase egg extracts depleted (Δ) or not depleted (+) of CENP-C. CENP-Cindependent inhibition of M18BP1 binding was observed specifically in metaphase extract. B) Coomassie stained SDS-PAGE gel of 500 ng of purified recombinant Flag-M18BP1-2747-944 wild-type or Y770A, W771A. C) Flag-M18BP1-2747-944 wild-type or YW mutant binding to CENP-A or H3 chromatin. Wildtype Flag-M18BP1-2747-944 binds specifically to CENP-A chromatin; mutation of the CENP-C motif abolishes binding. Values are normalized to the wild-type protein binding to CENP-A beads. Plot shows mean ± SEM from three experiments. D) The CENP-A chromatin binding domain of M18BP1 recapitulates interphase-specific chromatin binding. Representative images of purified Flag-M18BP1747-944 protein binding to CENP-A chromatin in interphase or metaphase-arrested Xenopus egg extracts. Cell cycle state indicated at left; immunolocalized protein indicated above. Scale bar, 5 μm. E) Modification of CENP-A chromatin in extract does not regulate M18BP1 binding. CENP-A chromatin was incubated in buffer, metaphase-arrested or interphase egg extract. After incubation, CENP-A chromatin was re-isolated, and then incubated with Flag- M18BP1-2747-944 protein. Bar graph represents quantification of bound M18BP1 protein normalized to protein bound to chromatin without extract incubation.
