We have previously isolated the hpttg proto-oncogene, which is expressed in normal tissues containing proliferating cells and in several kinds of tumors, In fact, expression of hPTTG correlates with cell proliferation in a cell cycle-dependent manner. Recently it was reported that PTTG is a vertebrate analog of the yeast securins Pds1 and Cut2, which are involved in sister chromatid separation. Here we show that hPPTG binds to Ku, the regulatory subunit of the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK), hPTTG and Ku associate both in vitro and in vivo and the DNA-PK catalytic subunit phosphorylates hPTTG in vitro. Furthermore, DNA double-strand breaks prevent, hPTTG-Ku association and disrupt the hTTG-Ku complexes, indicating that genome damaging events, which result in the induction of pathways that activate DNA repair mechanisms and halt cell cycle progression, might inhibit hPTTG-Ku interaction in vivo, We propose that hPTTG might connect DNA damage-response pathways with sister chromatid separation, delaying the onset of mitosis while:DNA repair occurs.
