Common mechanism of transcription termination at coding and noncoding RNA genes in fission yeast
Termination of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcription is a fundamental step of gene expression that is critical for determining the borders between genes.

The recruitment of acetylated and unacetylated tropomyosin to distinct actin polymers permits the discrete regulation of specific myosins in fission yeast. [PDF]
Tropomyosin (Tm) is a conserved dimeric coiled-coil protein, which forms polymers that curl around actin filaments in order to regulate actomyosin function.

Formins Determine the Functional Properties of Actin Filaments in Yeast [PDF]
The actin cytoskeleton executes a broad range of essential functions within a living cell. The dynamic nature of the actin polymer is modulated to facilitate specific cellular processes at discrete locations by actin-binding proteins (ABPs), including ...

Identification of twenty-three mutations in fission yeast Scap that constitutively activate SREBP*
The endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein SREBP cleavage-activating protein (Scap) senses sterols and regulates activation of sterol-regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs), membrane-bound transcription factors that control lipid homeostasis in ...

Splitting of the fission yeast septum [PDF]
In cell-walled organisms, a cross wall (septum) is produced during cytokinesis, which then splits in certain organisms to allow the daughter cells to separate. The formation and the subsequent cleavage of the septum require wall synthesis and wall degradation, which need to be strictly coordinated in order to prevent cell lysis.

Optimization of a microarray for fission yeast [PDF]
Bar-code (tag) microarrays of yeast gene-deletion collections facilitate the systematic identification of genes required for growth in any condition of interest. Anti-sense strands of amplified bar-codes hybridize with ~10,000 (5,000 each for up- and down-tags) different kinds of sense-strand probes on an array.

Genetic interaction networks that underlie most human diseases are highly complex and poorly defined. Better-defined networks will allow identification of a greater number of therapeutic targets.

A proteome-wide fission yeast interactome reveals network evolution principles from yeasts to human
SUMMARY Here, we present FissionNet, a proteome-wide binary protein interactome for S. pombe, comprising 2,278 high-quality interactions, of which ~50% were previously not reported in any species.

RNA interference-mediated co-transcriptional gene silencing in fission yeast [PDF]
In the last decade or so, RNA interference (RNAi) has gained unanticipated recognition in the fields of RNA biology and gene regulation. It exists in a wide variety of eukaryotic organisms, and various forms of RNAi are involved in diverse biological ...
