(2017-03-30)Department: Cell and Developmental BiologyThe final steps of cell division are tightly coordinated in space and time but whether mechanisms exist to couple the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons during anaphase and cytokinesis (C phase) is largely unknown. We ...
-
(2007-07-31)Department: Cell and Developmental BiologyThe spindle pole body, the yeast analog of the centrosome, serves not only to nucleate and organize microtubules but also as a signaling center to coordinate events in mitosis and cytokinesis. It does so by localizing ...
-
(2013-07-29)Department: Cell and Developmental BiologyCell division requires proper coordination of chromosome segregation and cytokinesis. Mitotic checkpoints enforce proper coordination of these two events by stalling the core cell cycle machinery when unforeseen mistakes ...
-
(2005-07-12)Department: Cell and Developmental BiologyThe study of cytokinesis in fission yeast S.pombe has revealed a signaling network, the septation initiation network (SIN) that serves to coordinate cytokinesis with mitotic exit in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces ...
-
(2013-07-29)Department: Cell and Developmental BiologyIn many organisms, a cytokinetic ring directs daughter cell separation following mitosis. While conserved molecular participants in this process have been defined, the signaling events controlling cytokinetic ring function ...
-
(2019-09-13)Department: Cell and Developmental BiologyCytokinesis is the physical separation of two daughter cells. Coordination of cytokinesis with genome duplication and segregation is essential for the viability of all cells. Yeast, amoebas, and animal cells assemble an ...
-
(2017-08-11)Department: Cell and Developmental BiologyIn Schizosaccharomyces pombe cytokinesis requires assembly and constriction of an actomyosin-based contractile ring (CR). Nucleation of F-actin for the CR requires a single essential formin, Cdc12, that localizes to the ...
-
(2017-07-13)Department: Cell and Developmental BiologyCytokinesis is the final step in the cell cycle where one cell is physically divided into two. Animal and fungal cells perform cytokinesis with an actin- and myosin-based molecular machine, the contractile ring. A complete ...
-
(2018-04-02)Department: Cell and Developmental BiologyPost-translational modification of proteins are events involved in many cellular processes, including the cell cycle. During mitosis, the metaphase to anaphase transition is regulated by the ubiquitin ligase activity of ...
