Nuclear size control in fission yeast
A long-standing biological question is how a eukaryotic cell controls the size of its nucleus. We report here that in fission yeast, nuclear size is proportional to cell size over a 35-fold range, and use mutants to show that a 16-fold change in nuclear DNA content does not influence the relative size of the nucleus. Multi-nucleated cells with unevenly distributed nuclei reveal that nuclei surr...
متن کاملThe size control of fission yeast revisited.
An analysis was made of cell length and cycle time in time-lapse films of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe using wild-type (WT) cells and those of various mutants. The more important conclusions about 'size controls' are: (1) there is a marker in G2 in WT cells provided by a rate change point (RCP) where the linear rate of length growth increases by approximately 30%. The period befo...
متن کاملA G2-phase microtubule-damage response in fission yeast.
Microtubules assume a variety of structures throughout the different stages of the cell cycle. Ensuring the correct assembly of such structures is essential to guarantee cell division. During mitosis, it is well established that the spindle assembly checkpoint monitors the correct attachment of sister chromatids to the mitotic spindle. However, the role that microtubule cytoskeleton integrity p...
متن کاملG2/M arrest caused by actin disruption is a manifestation of the cell size checkpoint in fission yeast.
In budding yeast, actin disruption prevents nuclear division. This has been explained as activation of a morphogenesis checkpoint monitoring the integrity of the actin cytoskeleton. The checkpoint operates through inhibitory tyrosine phosphorylation of Cdc28, the budding yeast Cdc2 homolog. Wild-type Schizosaccharomyces pombe cells also arrest before mitosis after actin depolymerization. Oversi...
متن کاملCell-Cycle Analyses Using Thymidine Analogues in Fission Yeast
Thymidine analogues are powerful tools when studying DNA synthesis including DNA replication, repair and recombination. However, these analogues have been reported to have severe effects on cell-cycle progression and growth, the very processes being investigated in most of these studies. Here, we have analyzed the effects of 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) and 5-Chloro-2'-deoxyuridine (CldU) us...
