Supplementary information

Ki67 is a nuclear protein often referred to as MKI67 with a molecular weight of approximately 345 kDa. This protein is strongly associated with cell proliferation. Scientists commonly use Ki67 staining techniques to identify and quantify proliferating cells in tissues. Ki67 is expressed in the nucleus during active cell cycle phases—G1 S G2 and M—but not in resting cells in G0 phase. It is detectable through methods such as Ki67 immunofluorescence and Ki67 flow cytometry which are important for analyzing cell division.
Biological function summary

The Ki67 protein plays an essential role in cellular proliferation processes. It does not form part of a stable complex but interacts transiently with other cell cycle-related proteins. Research indicates that Ki67 maintains the structure of the perichromosomal layer during mitosis impacting chromosome separation. It is particularly active in tissues with high cell turnover such as bone marrow and lymphoid organs.

Pathways

Ki67 influences several key cellular pathways that control cell proliferation and differentiation. The protein acts within the regulation of the cell cycle and the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway important for cell growth and survival. Within these pathways Ki67 interacts with proteins like cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) which regulate transitions between different phases of the cell cycle.

Ki67 has significant implications in oncology and can be used as a biomarker for cancer prognosis. Its expression levels help determine the aggressiveness of tumors especially in breast cancer and prostate cancer. High Ki67 levels correlate with poor prognosis as it indicates rapid cell division. In cancer Ki67 associates with p53 a protein that regulates the cell cycle and function as a tumor suppressor.

Target data

Protein that associates with the surface of mitotic chromosomes and acts both as a chromosome repellent during early mitosis and chromosome attractant during late mitosis (PubMed : 27362226, PubMed : 32879492, PubMed : 35513709, PubMed : 39153474). Required to maintain individual mitotic chromosomes dispersed in the cytoplasm following nuclear envelope disassembly (PubMed : 27362226). During early mitosis, relocalizes from nucleoli to the chromosome surface where it forms extended brush structures that cover a substantial fraction of the chromosome surface (PubMed : 27362226). The MKI67 brush structure prevents chromosomes from collapsing into a single chromatin mass by forming a steric and electrostatic charge barrier : the protein has a high net electrical charge and acts as a surfactant, dispersing chromosomes and enabling independent chromosome motility (PubMed : 27362226). During mitotic anaphase, the MKI67 brush structure collapses and MKI67 switches from a chromosome repellent to a chromosome attractant to promote chromosome clustering and facilitate the exclusion of large cytoplasmic particles from the future nuclear space (PubMed : 32879492, PubMed : 39153474). Mechanistically, dephosphorylation during mitotic exit and simultaneous exposure of a conserved basic patch induce the RNA-dependent formation of a liquid-like condensed phase on the chromosome surface, promoting coalescence of neighboring chromosome surfaces and clustering of chromosomes (PubMed : 39153474). Binds premature ribosomal RNAs during anaphase; promoting liquid-liquid phase separation (PubMed : 28935370, PubMed : 39153474). Binds DNA, with a preference for supercoiled DNA and AT-rich DNA (PubMed : 10878551). Does not contribute to the internal structure of mitotic chromosomes (By similarity). May play a role in chromatin organization; it is however unclear whether it plays a direct role in chromatin organization or whether it is an indirect consequence of its function in mitotic chromosome (PubMed : 24867636).
