Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) function as central regulators of both the cell cycle and transcription. CDK activation depends on phosphorylation by a CDK-activating kinase (CAK). Different CAKs have been identified in budding yeast, fission yeast, and metazoans. All known CAKs belong to the extended CDK family. The sole budding yeast CAK, CAK1, and one of the two CAKs in fission yeast, csk1, ...

Abstract Marine sediment communities are major contributors to biogeochemical cycling and benthic ecosystem functioning, but they poorly described, particularly in remote regions such as Antarctica. We analysed patterns drivers of diversity metazoan prokaryotic the Antarctic Peninsula with metabarcoding approaches. Our results show that combined use mitochondrial Cox1, 16S 18S rRNA gene recover...
