ABSTRACT
In metazoans, the nuclear envelope (NE) disassembles during the prophase and reassembles around segregated chromatids during the telophase. The process of NE formation has been extensively studied using live-cell imaging. At the early step of NE reassembly in human cells, specific pattern-like localization of inner nuclear membrane (INM) proteins, connected to the nuclear pore complex (NPC), was observed in the so-called "core" region and "noncore" region on telophase chromosomes, which corresponded to the "pore-free" region and the "pore-rich" region, respectively, in the early G1 interphase nucleus. We refer to these phenomena as NE subdomain formation. To biochemically investigate this process, we aimed to develop an in vitro NE reconstitution system using digitonin-permeabilized semi-intact mitotic human cells coexpressing two INM proteins, emerin and lamin B receptor, which were labeled with fluorescent proteins. The targeting and accumulation of INM proteins to chromosomes before and after anaphase onset in semi-intact cells were observed using time-lapse imaging. Our in vitro NE reconstitution system recapitulated the formation of the NE subdomain, as in living cells, although chromosome segregation and cytokinesis were not observed. This in vitro NE reconstitution required the addition of a mitotic cytosolic fraction supplemented with a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor and energy sources. The cytoplasmic soluble factor(s) dependency of INM protein targeting differed among the segregation states of chromosomes. Furthermore, the NE reconstituted on segregated chromosomes exhibited active nucleocytoplasmic transport competency. These results indicate that the chromosome status changes after anaphase onset for recruiting NPC components.
