Heat shock protein-90 (Hsp90) is an essential molecular chaperone in eukaryotes that plays a vital role in protecting and maintaining the functional integrity of deregulated signaling proteins in tumors. We have previously reported that the stability and activity of the mitotic checkpoint kinase Mps1 depend on Hsp90. In turn, Mps1-mediated phosphorylation Hsp90 regulates its chaperone function and is essential for the mitotic arrest. Cdc14-assisted dephosphorylation of Hsp90 is vital for the mitotic exit. Post-translational regulation of Hsp90 function is also known as the Hsp90 "Chaperone Code." Here, we demonstrate that only the active Mps1 is ubiquitinated on K86, K827, and K848 by the tumor suppressor von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) containing E3 enzyme, in a prolyl hydroxylation-independent manner and degraded in the proteasome. Furthermore, we show that this process regulates cell exit from the mitotic checkpoint. Collectively, our data demonstrates an interplay between the Hsp90 chaperone and VHL degradation machinery in regulating mitosis.

Hsp90 chaperone code and the tumor suppressor VHL cooperatively regulate the mitotic checkpoint
