Supplementary information

The protein PICH also known as Plk1-interacting checkpoint helicase is an important factor in maintaining chromosome integrity during cell division. PICH is a helicase with a molecular mass of approximately 135 kDa. This protein is mainly expressed in tissues with a high rate of cell division. It possesses ATPase activity which allows it to unwind DNA structures playing a mechanical role in chromosome segregation. The helicase activity of PICH is necessary in mitosis where it interacts with centromeres during spindle assembly checkpoint activation.
Biological function summary

PICH contributes to the resolution of ultra-fine DNA bridges which occur during the late stages of mitosis. These DNA bridges can compromise genome stability leading to genetic disorders if not properly resolved. PICH works with other proteins like topoisomerase II and Bloom syndrome protein (BLM) to manage these structures. This activity suggests PICH is part of a complex necessary for protecting chromosomal stability during cell division ensuring accurate segregation of sister chromatids.

Pathways

PICH plays a role in the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) and mitotic exit pathway. Within these pathways PICH interacts with proteins such as Polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1) and Aurora B both important for the regulation of mitosis. PICH's interaction with these proteins highlights its significance in controlling the proper timing and execution of chromosome separation which is essential for correct mitotic progression and prevention of aneuploidy.

PICH is associated with conditions that involve genomic instability like cancer. Aberrations in PICH function can result in incorrect chromosome segregation contributing to tumorigenesis. Additionally PICH is linked with disorders involving defective DNA repair mechanisms such as those involving BRCA1 a protein important for repairing DNA double-strand breaks. Dysfunctional PICH leads to enhanced chromosomal aberrations highlighting its relevance in maintaining genomic integrity and linking it to significant pathological states.
