Sister chromatid separation requires two steps of proteolysis. Securin, the chaperon and inhibitor of separase, is destructed in anaphase after polyubiquitination, and resulting activated separase cleaves the cohesin subunit Scc1/Rad21. Fission yeast securin/Cut2 and separase/Cut1 that form the complex are essential fo...

Here, we present evidence that fission yeast replication origins are ...

The paired box transcription factor Pax-5 (B-cell-specific activator protein) is a key regulator of lineage-specific gene expression and differentiation in B-lymphocytes. We show that Pax-5 functions as a cell type-specific docking protein that facilitates binding of the early B-cell-specific mb-1 promoter by proteins ...

Mus81 is a highly conserved endonuclease with homology to the XPF subunit of the XPF-ERCC1 complex. In yeast Mus81 associates with a second subunit, Eme1 or Mms4, which is essential for endonuclease activity in vitro and for in vivo function. Human Mus81 binds to a homolog of fission yeast Eme1 in vitro and in vivo. We...

The Smc5-Smc6 holocomplex plays essential but largely enigmatic roles in chromosome segregation, and facilitates DNA repair. The Smc5-Smc6 complex contains six conserved non-SMC subunits. One of these, Nse1, contains a RING-like motif that often confers ubiquitin E3 ligase activity. We have functionally characterized t...
