Interspecies conservation of organisation and function between nonhomologous regional centromeres
Nature Communications, 2019 Although the centromere-specific histone CENP-A usually assembles on specific genomic sequences, centromeric DNA is not conserved. Here the authors characterize the genome and centromeres of related fission yeasts and provide evidence that ...

Asymmetric inheritance of cytoophidia in Schizosaccharomyces pombe
Biology Open, 2014 A general view is that Schizosaccharomyces pombe undergoes symmetric cell division with two daughter cells inheriting equal shares of the content from the mother cell.

Phosphorylation of the amino-terminus of the AGC kinase Gad8 prevents its interaction with TORC2 [PDF]
Open Biology, 2016 Cell proliferation, metabolism, migration and survival are coordinated through the tight control of two target of rapamycin (TOR) kinase complexes: TORC1 and TORC2.

Isolation and characterisation of Sri Lankan yeast germplasm and its evaluation for alcohol production [PDF]
, 2006 Use of inferior yeast cultures represents one of the reasons for low fermentation efficiencies in Sri Lankan alcohol distilleries that use sugarcane molasses. The present study isolated and characterised yeast strains found in natural environments in Sri

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 21, November 2025.ABSTRACT Parasites are expected to hybridise in similar ways to free‐living organisms, although this may be modified by their reduced genome architecture. Recombinant strains and taxa of hybrid origin can be studied in nature where hosts come into secondary contact. Here we apply genome‐wide analysis to parasites from a contact previously characterised

Holliday junction resolvase in Schizosaccharomyces pombe has identical endonuclease activity to the CCE1 homologue YDC2 [PDF]
, 1998 A novel Holliday junction resolving activity has been identified in fractionated cell extracts of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe . The enzyme catalyses endonucleolytic cleavage of Holliday junction-containing chi DNA and synthetic four-way ...

FgNdk1 Promotes Effector Secretion to Scavenge ROS During Fusarium graminearum Infection
Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 11, November 2025.The ER‐anchored nucleoside diphosphate kinase FgNdk1 promotes the secretion of effectors FgSp10, FgSp16 and FgSp24 to scavenge plant‐derived ROS during Fusarium graminearum infection. ABSTRACT Pathogens secrete numerous effectors to overcome plant‐derived reactive oxygen species (ROS), but how pathogens modulate effector secretion during infection ...

Functional characterization of the diatom cyclin-dependent kinase A2 as a mitotic regulator reveals plant-like properties in a non-green lineage [PDF]
, 2015 Background: Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are crucial regulators of cell cycle progression in eukaryotes. The diatom CDKA2 was originally assigned to the classical A-type CDKs, but its cell cycle phase-specific transcription at the G2-to-M phase ...

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 9, Issue 10, October 2025.Fungal mycelium‐based materials are an upcoming class of sustainable materials. Heat ‐pressing is a promising post‐processing technique to produce fungal mycelium‐based particle boards or leather substitutes. However, little is known about the mechanism involved.
