Physical Interaction between Recombinational Proteins Rhp51 and Rad22 in Schizosaccharomyces pombe [PDF]
In eukaryotes, Rad51 and Rad52 are two key components of homologous recombination and recombinational repair. These two proteins interact with each other. Here we investigated the role of interaction between Rhp51 and Rad22, the fission yeast homologs of Rad51 and Rad52, respectively, on the function of each protein.

The power of many: when genetics met yeasts and high‐throughput
ABSTRACT In recent years, complex technological capabilities have evolved, driven by the need to solve complex and integrative biological questions through global analyses. New equipment allows the scaling up and automation of processes which previously were carried out on a very limited scale.

Post-translational processing of Schizosaccharomyces pombe YPT proteins.
ras proteins are post-translationally processed at their carboxyl-terminal CAAX motif by a triplet of modifications: prenylation of C with farnesyl, proteolytic trimming of AAX, and carboxyl-methylation. These modifications co-operate with palmitoylation of nearby sites or a polybasic region to target plasma membrane localization.

Systematic Quantification of GFP-tagged Protein Foci in Schizosaccharomyces pombe Nuclei [PDF]
DNA damage repair proteins form foci in response to DNA damaging agents. The efficiency and integrity of the DNA repair pathway of a particular eukaryotic (mutant) strain is usually determined by the number of foci formed compared with their wild-type counterpart.

Role of Schizosaccharomyces pombe RecQ homolog recombination and checkpoint genes in UV Damage tolerance [PDF]
The cellular responses to DNA damage are complex and include direct DNA repair pathways that remove the damage and indirect damage responses which allow cells to survive DNA damage that has not been, or cannot be, removed.

Global Proteome Turnover Analyses of the Yeasts S. cerevisiae and S. pombe
Summary: How cells maintain specific levels of each protein and whether that control is evolutionarily conserved are key questions. Here, we report proteome-wide steady-state protein turnover rate measurements for the evolutionarily distant but ...

Inter-species complementation of the translocon beta subunit requires only its transmembrane domain. [PDF]
In eukaryotes, proteins enter the secretory pathway through the translocon pore of the endoplasmic reticulum. This protein translocation channel is composed of three major subunits, called Sec61alpha, beta and gamma in mammals. Unlike the other subunits,

DNA damage repair proteins across the Tree of Life
Summary: Genome maintenance is orchestrated by a highly regulated DNA damage response with specific DNA repair pathways. Here, we investigate the phylogenetic diversity in the recognition and repair of three well-established DNA lesions, primarily ...

Abstract The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is an environmentally friendly, sustainable pest control approach, which uses large‐scale releases of sterile insects to suppress or eradicate target populations through infertile matings. The efficiency of SIT is enhanced by male‐only releases requiring genetic sexing strains (GSSs) that are classically ...

Scarless Gene Tagging with One-Step Transformation and Two-Step Selection in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe. [PDF]
Gene tagging with fluorescent proteins is commonly applied to investigate the localization and dynamics of proteins in their cellular environment. Ideally, a fluorescent tag is genetically inserted at the endogenous locus at the N- or C- terminus of the ...
