The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p40SIC1 imposes the requirement for Cln G1 cyclin function at Start.
In yeast, commitment to cell division (Start) is catalyzed by activation of the Cdc28 protein kinase in late G1 phase by the Cln1, Cln2, and Cln3 G1 cyclins. The Clns are essential, rate-limiting activators of Start because cells lacking Cln function (referred to as cln-) arrest at Start and because CLN dosage modulates the timing of Start. At or shortly after Start, the development of B-type c...
متن کاملPOG1, a novel yeast gene, promotes recovery from pheromone arrest via the G1 cyclin CLN2.
In the absence of a successful mating, pheromone-arrested Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells reenter the mitotic cycle through a recovery process that involves downregulation of the mating mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade. We have isolated a novel gene, POG1, whose promotion of recovery parallels that of the MAPK phosphatase Msg5. POG1 confers alpha-factor resistance when overexpress...
متن کاملThe D-type alfalfa cyclin gene cycMs4 complements G1 cyclin-deficient yeast and is induced in the G1 phase of the cell cycle.
Cyclins are key regulators of the cell cycle in all eukaryotes. In alfalfa, we have previously isolated three B-type cyclins. The closely related cycMs1 and cycMs2 genes are expressed primarily during the G2 and M phases and are most likely mitotic cyclins; expression of the cycMs3 gene is induced in the G0-to-G1 transition, when cells reenter the cell cycle. By complementation of G1 cyclin-def...
متن کاملCyclin Y is a novel conserved cyclin essential for development in Drosophila.
The Drosophila gene CG14939 encodes a member of a highly conserved family of cyclins, the Y-type cyclins, which have not been functionally characterized in any organism. Here we report the generation and phenotypic characterization of a null mutant of CG14939, which we rename Cyclin Y (CycY). We show that the null mutant, CycY(E8), is homozygous lethal with most mutant animals arresting during ...
متن کاملGene function prediction from congruent synthetic lethal interactions in yeast
We predicted gene function using synthetic lethal genetic interactions between null alleles in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Phenotypic and protein interaction data indicate that synthetic lethal gene pairs function in parallel or compensating pathways. Congruent gene pairs, defined as sharing synthetic lethal partners, are in single pathway branches. We predicted benomyl sensitivity and nuclear mi...
