Smac and aurora B binding are not essential for Survivin function. (A) Location of D55 in the Survivin dimer. (B) Expression of SurvivinD55A-GFP and loss of wild-type (WT) Survivin expression from cultures grown in doxycycline. (C) SurvivinD55A-GFP rescues the life of SurvivinOFF cells. (D) SurvivinD55A-GFP colocalizes normally with INCENP in SurvivinON/OFF cells. (E) Location of D72 and D73 in the Survivin dimer. (F) Expression of SurvivinD72A/D73A-GFP and loss of wild-type Survivin expression from cultures grown in doxycycline. (G) SurvivinD72A/D73A-GFP fails to localize in SurvivinON cells; INCENP localization is normal (a and b). SurvivinD72A/D73A-GFP fails to localize in SurvivinOFF cells at prometaphase and metaphase; INCENP localization at centromeres is also compromised (c). SurvivinD72A/D73A-GFP and INCENP localize normally in SurvivinOFF cells at anaphase/telophase (d). (H) SurvivinD72A/D73A-GFP rescues the life of SurvivinOFF cells. Bars, 5 μm.
