A novel RING-finger-like protein Ini1 is essential for cell cycle progression in fission yeast.
We have cloned a fission yeast (Schizosaccharomyces pombe) homologue of Ini, a novel RING-finger-like protein recently identified in rat that interacts with the connexin43 (cx43) promoter and might be important for the response of the cx43 gene to estrogen. S. pombe cells deleted for ini1(+) fail to form colonies and arrest with an elongated cell phenotype, indicating a cell cycle block. Cell c...
متن کاملA novel jmjC domain protein modulates heterochromatization in fission yeast.
The heterochromatin domain at the mat locus of Schizosaccharomyces pombe is bounded by the IR-L and IR-R barriers. A genetic screen for mutations that promote silencing beyond IR-L revealed a novel gene named epe1, encoding a conserved nuclear protein with a jmjC domain. Disruption of epe1 promotes continuous spreading of heterochromatin-associated histone modifications and Swi6 binding to chro...
متن کاملFission yeast Cyk3p is a transglutaminase-like protein that participates in cytokinesis and cell morphogenesis
Cell morphogenesis is a complex process that relies on a diverse array of proteins and pathways. We have identified a transglutaminase-like protein (Cyk3p) that functions in fission yeast morphogenesis. The phenotype of a cyk3 knockout strain indicates a primary role for Cyk3p in cytokinesis. Correspondingly, Cyk3p localizes both to the actomyosin contractile ring and the division septum, promo...
متن کاملTea2p Is a Kinesin-like Protein Required to Generate Polarized Growth in Fission Yeast
Cytoplasmic microtubules are critical for establishing and maintaining cell shape and polarity. Our investigations of kinesin-like proteins (klps) and morphological mutants in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe have identified a kinesin-like gene, tea2(+), that is required for cells to generate proper polarized growth. Cells deleted for this gene are often bent during exponential growt...
متن کاملFission yeast Msp1 is a mitochondrial dynamin-related protein.
We recently identified Msp1p, a fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe dynamin-related protein, which is essential for the maintenance of mitochondrial DNA. The Msp1p sequence displays typical features of a mitochondrial protein. Here we report in vitro and in vivo data that validate that prediction. We demonstrate that the targeting sequence of Msp1p is processed by recombinant mitochondrial ...
