(A) Schematic overview of the genome-wide CRISPR knockout screen in Cal51 mScarlet-MDM2 cells. Cells were transduced with the Brunello sgRNA library, subjected to puromycin selection, treated with ZM for 40 h, and sorted by FACS based on reporter fluorescence. Genomic DNA from sorted populations was processed for sgRNA amplification and Illumina-based next-generation sequencing. (B) Waterfall plot showing genome-wide ranking of genes based on MAGeCK analysis of sgRNA enrichment in the reporter-negative population. Genes are ordered by rank, and the y-axis represents the -log10-transformed MAGeCK enrichment score (robust rank aggregation score). Selected pathway components are highlighted. (C) sgRNA-level log 2 fold-change (LFC) values for selected genes identified in the CRISPR screen. Each point represents an individual sgRNA from the Brunello library targeting the indicated gene, illustrating the consistency of sgRNA behavior across hits. NTC: non-targeting control. (D) Immunoblot analysis of an isogenic panel of RPE1 cells comprising wild-type p53 cells (WT), TP53 -/- cells, or cells expressing hotspot mutant p53 alleles (R175H or R248Q) following ZM treatment. Two independent clones are shown for each TP53 -/- , R175H, and R248Q genotype. (E) Immunoblot analysis of wild-type (WT) and CRISPR-engineered Cal51 cells harboring point mutations disrupting the p53 response elements (p53REs) in the PIDD1 or MDM2 promoters, as schematized in Fig. S4A, following ZM treatment. Two independently derived clonal cell lines are shown for each genotype. (F) Dot plot of Gene Ontology (GO) Cellular Component terms enriched among the top 200 genes identified in the CRISPR screen. Dot size represents the number of genes associated with each term, and color indicates enrichment significance. (G) Jaccard similarity heatmap showing pairwise overlap between the five top-ranked enriched GO Cellular Component terms shown in (F). Each square reports the Jaccard similarity index, and colour intensity reflects similarity magnitude, highlighting extensive overlap among m6A writer-associated terms and no overlap with the centriole term.

(A) Immunoblot analysis of RPE1 cells of the indicated genotypes following ZM treatment. (B) Immunofluorescence analysis of PIDD1 localization in RPE1 cells of the indicated genotypes following ZM treatment. Magnified insets of boxed regions (without the DNA channel) are shown. Scale bar: 5 μm. (C) Ultrastructure expansion microscopy (U-ExM) coupled with Structured Illumination Microscopy (SIM) was used to analyze distal (CEP83-positive, top panels) and subdistal (CEP128-positive, bottom panels) appendage organization in RPE1 cells of the indicated genotypes. Representative images are shown. Scale bar: 500 nm. (D) U-ExM/SIM analysis of centrosome spatial organization in ZM-treated RPE1 cells. Mature mother centrioles were visualized by CEP83 staining. Representative images illustrate tightly clustered or spatially separated CEP83-positive centrioles within centrosome assemblies. Scale bar: 500 nm. (E) Quantification of centrosome clustering in ZM-treated RPE1 cells of the indicated genotypes. The three-dimensional distance between the two closest CEP83-positive distal appendage signals was measured. Each small dot represents a single cell measurement; same-symbol colors distinguish biological replicates. The mean of each biological replicate is reported (larger dots) ± standard deviation. N = 4 biological replicates, n = 30 cells per condition; 120 cells total. Mann-Whitney test. (F) Proposed model for multi-layered regulation of p53 surveillance following whole-genome doubling (WGD). WGD is associated with the presence of supernumerary centrosomes that engage a centrosome-based surveillance pathway. At an upstream structural layer, subdistal appendage-dependent centrosome architecture is associated with a spatial organization of centrosomes permissive for Caspase-2 activation. Caspase-2-mediated cleavage of MDM2 alters the p53-MDM2 circuit, converting negative feedback into positive feedback and amplifying p53 signaling. At a downstream competence layer, the m6A writer complex modulates the ability of this circuit to sustain pathway output independently of Caspase-2 activation.

C Relative gene expression of Tp53, Sdhb, Timm21, Timm23, Tomm20 , and Tomm40 in SW620 Casp2 . −/− cells transfected with siRNA targeting Tp53 or negative control (NC). D Representative immunoblots and ( E ) relative protein levels of CASP2, p53, SDHA, SDHB, TIMM23, TOMM20, and TOMM40 in SW620 Casp2-KO and SW620 Casp2-KO + shp53 cells. Results are shown as the mean ± SD of three independent experiments. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001, **** P < 0.0001
