英文摘要 | Centrioles and basal bodies (CBBs) are found in physically linked pairs, and in mammalian cells intercentriole connections (G1–G2 tether and S–M linker) regulate centriole duplication and function. In trypanosomes BBs are not associated with the spindle and function in flagellum/cilia nucleation with an additional role in mitochondrial genome (kinetoplast DNA [kDNA]) segregation. Here, we describe BBLP, a BB/pro-BB (pBB) linker protein in Trypanosoma brucei predicted to be a large coiled-coil protein conserved in the kinetoplastida. Colocalization with the centriole marker SAS6 showed that BBLP localizes between the BB/pBB pair, throughout the cell cycle, with a stronger signal in the old flagellum BB/pBB pair. Importantly, RNA interference (RNAi) depletion of BBLP leads to a conspicuous splitting of the BB/pBB pair associated only with the new flagellum. BBLP RNAi is lethal in the bloodstream form of the parasite and perturbs mitochondrial kDNA inheritance. Immunogold labeling confirmed that BBLP is localized to a cytoskeletal component of the BB/pBB linker, and tagged protein induction showed that BBLP is incorporated de novo in both new and old flagella BB pairs of dividing cells. We show that the two aspects of CBB disengagement—loss of orthogonal orientation and ability to separate and move apart—are consistent but separable events in evolutionarily diverse cells and we provide a unifying model explaining centriole/BB linkage differences between such cells. © 2021 National Academy of Sciences.
