Abstract
The Mad3/BubR1, Mad2, Bub1, and Bub3 proteins are gatekeepers for the transition from metaphase to anaphase. Mad3 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae has homology to Bub1 but lacks a corresponding C-terminal kinase domain. Mad3 forms a stable heterodimer with Bub3. Negative-stain electron microscopy shows that Mad3 is an extended molecule (approximately 200 A long), whereas Bub3 is globular. The Gle2-binding-sequence (GLEBS) motifs found in Mad3 and Bub1 are necessary and sufficient for interaction with Bub3. The calorimetrically determined dissociation constants for GLEBS-motif peptides and Bub3 are approximately 5 microM. Crystal structures of these peptides with Bub3 show that the interactions for Mad3 and Bub1 are similar and mutually exclusive. In both structures, the GLEBS peptide snakes along the top surface of the beta-propeller, forming an extensive interface. Mutations in either protein that disrupt the interface cause checkpoint deficiency and chromosome instability. We propose that the structure imposed on the GLEBS segment by its association with Bub3 enables recruitment to unattached kinetochores.

Full text Abstract
Figure 1.
Figure 1. Annotated structural sequence alignment of Bub3. The primary sequence of bakers yeast (SC) was aligned with known bub3 homologs from Drosophila (DM), Xenopus (XL), mouse (MM), and Human (HS) using CLUSTALW.^44 Residues in the sequence are color coded according to their similarity. The coloring scheme of the annotated secondary structure will be followed in subsequent Figures. Highlighted residues correspond to the WD signature sequence, which in Bub3p is highly divergent. The residues in the conserved structural triad in blade 6 are also highlighted.

Figure 2. Top/side views of Bub3. (A) The top view shows the overall topology. Note that any given sequence repeat spans two blades, forming βD in blade “n−1” and βA–βC in blade “n”. The three Se-methionine residues (sticks) are shown. Stars indicate disordered loop regions that were not traceable. (B) A 90° rotation relative to the top view, illustrating the relative height of the DA loop between blades 5 and 6 as well as the BC loop in blade 7. The Figure was generated in Bobscript^45 and rendered with Raster3d.^46
