Fission Yeast Cell Cycle Checkpoint Mutation
We have identified a novel human gene by virtue of its ability to complement the radl-1 checkpoint mutant of Schizosaccharomyces pombe. This gene, called RACH2, rescues the temperature-sensitive lethality of a radl-1 weel-50 double mutant of S. pombe. Expression of RACH2 in S. pombe radl-1 strains partially restores UV resistance to the radl-1 mutant strain. Expression of RACH2 in a radl-1 cdc2...
متن کاملA cell cycle checkpoint monitors cell morphogenesis in budding yeast
Checkpoint controls are regulatory pathways that inhibit cell cycle progression in cells that have not faithfully completed a prior step in the cell cycle. In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, DNA replication and spindle assembly are monitored by checkpoint controls that prevent nuclear division in cells that have failed to complete these processes. During the normal cell cycle, bud f...
متن کاملStabilization of yeast artificial chromosome clones in a rad54-3 recombination-deficient host strain.
The cloning and propagation of large fragments of DNA on yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) has become a routine and valuable technique in genome analysis. Unfortunately, many YAC clones have been found to undergo rearrangements or deletions during the cloning process. The frequency of transformation-associated alterations and mitotic instability can be reduced in a homologous recombination-de...
متن کاملOrigin of Irreversibility of Cell Cycle Start in Budding Yeast
Budding yeast cells irreversibly commit to a new division cycle at a regulatory transition called Start. This essential decision-making step involves the activation of the SBF/MBF transcription factors. SBF/MBF promote expression of the G1 cyclins encoded by CLN1 and CLN2. Cln1,2 can activate their own expression by inactivating the Whi5 repressor of SBF/MBF. The resulting transcriptional posit...
متن کاملtRNA Traffic Meets a Cell-Cycle Checkpoint
The molecular pathways linking DNA-damage checkpoint proteins to cell-cycle progression remain largely unresolved. Findings by Ghavidel et al. (2007) reported in this issue suggest that tRNA trafficking and the transcription factor Gcn4 are key intermediates in the process by which yeast cells detect DNA damage and delay cell-cycle progression at the G1 to S phase transition.
