The extent of error-prone replication-restart by homologous recombination is controlled by Exo1 and checkpoint proteins [PDF]
Genetic instability, a hallmark of cancer, can occur when the replication machinery encounters a barrier. The intra-S phase checkpoint maintains stalled replication forks in a replication-competent configuration by phosphorylating replisome components ...

SUMMARY Efficient biofortification, i.e., the enrichment of edible plant organs with micronutrients available for human consumption, is pursued through breeding and genetic engineering approaches. Enriching for iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn), two of the most critical trace elements, in cereal grains can be achieved by boosting the synthesis of nicotianamine ...

Nuclear Envelope Proteins Modulating the Heterochromatin Formation and Functions in Fission Yeast
The nuclear envelope (NE) consists of the inner and outer nuclear membranes (INM and ONM), and the nuclear pore complex (NPC), which penetrates the double membrane. ONM continues with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Π-cyc: A Reference-free SNP Discovery Application using Parallel Graph Search [PDF]
Motivation: Working with a large number of genomes simultaneously is of great interest in genetic population and comparative genomics research. Bubbles discovery in multi-genomes coloured de bruijn graph for de novo genome assembly is a problem that can be translated to cycles enumeration in graph theory.

Isolation of protein glycosylation mutants in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
We have isolated mutants in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe that are defective in protein glycosylation. A collection of osmotically sensitive mutants was prepared and screened for glycosylation defects using lectin staining as an assay. Mutants singly defective in four glycoprotein synthesis genes (gps1-4) were isolated, all of which bind

Splicing-dependent NMD does not require the EJC in Schizosaccharomyces pombe [PDF]
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a translation-linked process that destroys mRNAs with premature translation termination codons (PTCs). In mammalian cells, NMD is also linked to pre-mRNA splicing, usually PTCs trigger strong NMD only when positioned

Pichia pastoris Fep1 is a [2Fe-2S] protein with a Zn finger that displays an unusual oxygen-dependent role in cluster binding [PDF]
Fep1, the iron-responsive GATA factor from the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris, has been characterised both in vivo and in vitro. This protein has two Cys(2)-Cys(2) type zinc fingers and a set of four conserved cysteines arranged in a Cys-X-5-Cys-X ...

In vitro reactivation of spindle elongation in fission yeast nuc2 mutant cells. [PDF]
To investigate the mechanisms of spindle elongation and chromosome separation in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, we have developed an in vitro assay using a temperature-sensitive mutant strain, nuc2.

Recombinant expression and domain structure of the Rna1 protein from Schizosaccharomyces pombe
The amino acid sequence of Rna1p, a yeast protein implicated in the maturation and/or nucleocytoplasmic transport of RNA, is characterised by the presence of eight leucine‐rich repeats (LLRs) as well as two intervening repeats of a different type and a highly acidic C‐terminal region.
