Bifurcation analysis of a model of the budding yeast cell cycle
We study the bifurcations of a set of nine nonlinear ordinary differential equations that describe the regulation of the cyclin-dependent kinase that triggers DNA synthesis and mitosis in the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Peptide inhibitors of the anaphase promoting-complex that cause sensitivity to microtubule poison. [PDF]
There is an interest in identifying Anaphase Promoting-Complex/Cyclosome (APC/C) inhibitors that lead to sensitivity to microtubule poisons as a strategy for targeting cancer cells.

The meiosis-specific Cdc20 family-member Ama1 promotes binding of the Ssp2 activator to the Smk1 MAP kinase. [PDF]
Smk1 is a meiosis-specific MAP kinase (MAPK) in budding yeast that is required for spore formation. It is localized to prospore membranes (PSMs), the structures that engulf haploid cells during meiosis II (MII).

Running on a treadmill: dynamic inhibition of APC/C by the spindle checkpoint
During mitosis, the genome duplicated during S-phase is synchronously and accurately segregated to the two daughter cells. The spindle checkpoint prevents premature sister-chromatid separation and mitotic exit.

Functional analysis of recurrent CDC20 promoter variants in human melanoma
Small nucleotide variants in non-coding regions of the genome can alter transcriptional regulation, leading to changes in gene expression which can activate oncogenic gene regulatory networks.

Meiotic nuclear divisions in budding yeast require PP2ACdc55-mediated antagonism of Net1 phosphorylation by Cdk [PDF]
During meiosis, one round of deoxyribonucleic acid replication is followed by two rounds of nuclear division. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, activation of the Cdc14 early anaphase release (FEAR) network is required for exit from meiosis I but does not lead

Background: Anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) is a multi-subunit E3 ubiquitin ligase that recruits substrates for ubiquitination and subsequent degradation.

The promoters of human cell cycle genes integrate signals from two tumor suppressive pathways during cellular transformation [PDF]
Deciphering regulatory events that drive malignant transformation represents a major challenge for systems biology. Here we analyzed genome-wide transcription profiling of an in-vitro transformation process.

Survivin and Aurora Kinase A control cell fate decisions during mitosis
Aurora A interacts with survivin during mitosis and regulates its centromeric role. Loss of Aurora A activity mislocalises survivin, the CPC and BubR1, leading to disruption of the spindle checkpoint and triggering premature mitotic exit, which we refer to as ‘mitotic slippage’.
