Abstract excerpt
Analysis of Schizosaccharomyces pombe mutants that are defective in septum formation and cytokinesis has identified the product of the cdc15 gene as a key element in formation of a division septum. S. pombe cells lacking cdc15p function cannot assemble a functional medial ring, and do not make a division septum. cdc15 mRNA accumulates periodically during the cell cycle, peaking after entry into mitosis, and...
