Cross-linking mass spectrometry identifies new interfaces of Augmin required to localise the γ-Tubulin Ring Complex to the mitotic spindle

Abstract:

The hetero-octameric protein complex, Augmin, recruits γ-Tubulin Ring Complex (γ-TuRC) to pre-existing microtubules (MTs) to generate branched MTs during mitosis, facilitating robust spindle assembly. However, despite a recent partial reconstitution of the human Augmin complex in vitro, the molecular basis of this recruitment remains unclear. Here, we used immuno-affinity purification of in vivo Augmin from Drosophila and cross-linking/mass spectrometry to identify distance restraints between...
