    KNL1 protein expression was also significantly associated with poorer survival. Moreover, there was a significant correlation between KNL1 and BUB1 in colorectal cancer tissues. KNL1 plays an effective role in decreasing apoptosis and promoting the proliferation of colorectal cancer cells, suggesting that its inhibition may represent a promising therapeutic approach in patients with colorectal cancer.

    Data show how KNL1 binds both PP1 and microtubules. Unexpectedly, PP1 and microtubules bind KNL1 via overlapping binding sites. Co-sedimentation assays unequivocally demonstrated that microtubules and PP1 binding to KNL1 is mutually exclusive, with preferential formation of the KNL1:PP1 holoenzyme in the presence of PP1.

    Study demonstrates that KNL1 acts as a receptor of linear ubiquitin chains to anchor CENP-E at attached kinetochores. Thus, linear ubiquitin chains constitute a critical mechanism for chromosome congression and alignment by coupling the dynamic kinetochore microtubule motor CENP-E to the static one, the KMN network.

    LUBAC controls chromosome alignment by targeting CENP-E to attached kinetochores.

    Mutations in the CASC5 gene were found to encode a kinetochore protein essential for mitotic cell division and to cause autosomal recessive primary microcephaly 4. (Review)

    Therefore, Mps1 promotes checkpoint activation through sequentially phosphorylating Knl1, Bub1, and Mad1. This sequential multi-target phosphorylation cascade makes the checkpoint highly responsive to Mps1 and to kinetochore-microtubule attachment.

    CASC5 may contribute to the morphological and structural changes of the human brain during recent evolution. The observed between-population divergence of CASC5 variants was driven by natural selection that tends to favor a larger gray matter volume in East Asians.

    We propose that CASC5 has a key role for the correct functioning of DNA damage response proteins, and a defect in this connection might affect upstream and downstream DNA damage response events as response to increased genotoxic stress.
