Plasticity in centromere organization and kinetochore composition: Lessons from diversity

Midori Ishii et al.

Summary: This article discusses recent progress in understanding centromeres and kinetochores in non-traditional model eukaryotes. It specifically focuses on select lineages that lack CENP-A and highlights some organisms that might have hitherto unknown types of kinetochore proteins.

A resource for improved predictions of Trypanosoma and Leishmania protein three- dimensional structure

Richard John Wheeler

Summary: AlphaFold2 and RoseTTAfold represent a significant breakthrough in predicting protein structure, providing high-quality predictions with a high-quality alignment of protein sequences. However, predictions for certain species may be less accurate than model organisms, likely due to poor sampling of these species in the protein sequence databases used for AlphaFold and ColabFold.

First finding of free-living representatives of Prokinetoplastina and their nuclear and mitochondrial genomes

Denis Tikhonenkov et al.

Summary: Kinetoplastids are a group of heterotrophic flagellated protists, including parasites of humans and animals, as well as free-living bacterial consumers. Newly isolated strains of free-living flagellates are closely related to endosymbiotic and parasitic species, potentially shedding light on the evolution and ancestral states of kinetoplastids. These strains resemble some free-living bodonids and diplonemids morphologically and ultrastructurally, and have unique genetic repertoires with high metabolic potential.

Structural characterization of KKT4, an unconventional microtubule-binding kinetochore protein

Patryk Ludzia et al.

Summary: The structure and dynamics of the unconventional kinetoplastid kinetochore protein KKT4 were characterized using X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, and crosslinking mass spectrometry. KKT4 was found to have a microtubule-binding domain and a BRCT domain, which likely interacts with other proteins through phosphorylation.

Repurposing of synaptonemal complex proteins for kinetochores in Kinetoplastida

Eelco C. Tromer et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates homology between axial element components of the synaptonemal complex and kinetoplastid kinetochore proteins, suggesting that the kinetoplastid kinetochore system evolved by repurposing meiotic components of chromosome synapsis. The identification of divergent orthologues in various eukaryotic supergroups provides insights into the evolutionary origin and history of these kinetochores, shedding light on the potential for new functional complexes to arise within this ancient eukaryotic gene family.

Trypanosome KKIP1 Dynamically Links the Inner Kinetochore to a Kinetoplastid Outer Kinetochore Complex

Lorenzo Brusini et al.

Summary: Kinetochores play a crucial role in eukaryotes, binding chromosomes to the mitotic spindle. While the composition of kinetochores varies greatly among extant eukaryotes, a stable 9-protein kinetoplastid outer kinetochore complex has been identified in trypanosomes. This complex incorporates proteins from other nuclear processes and bridges inner- and outer-kinetochore components, suggesting design parallels in organisms with diverse kinetochore composition.

Kinetoplastid kinetochore proteins KKT2 and KKT3 have unique centromere localization domains

Gabriele Marciano et al.

Summary: The study characterizes the KKT2 and KKT3 proteins in the kinetoplastid parasite Trypanosoma brucei, showing that they are important for the localization of various kinetochore proteins, with their central domains playing a critical role. Crystal structures of the KKT2 central domain reveal a unique zinc-binding domain that promotes its kinetochore localization, while mutations in the equivalent domain in KKT3 abolish its function. This work demonstrates the importance of the unique central domains in mediating the centromere localization of KKT2 and KKT3.

Highly accurate protein structure prediction with AlphaFold

John Jumper et al.

Summary: Proteins are essential for life, and accurate prediction of their structures is a crucial research problem. Current experimental methods are time-consuming, highlighting the need for accurate computational approaches to address the gap in structural coverage. Despite recent progress, existing methods fall short of atomic accuracy in protein structure prediction.
