Abstract excerpt
Hyperactivation of Cdc2 in fission yeast causes cells to undergo a lethal premature mitosis, a phenomenon called mitotic catastrophe. This phenotype is observed in cdc2-3w wee1-50 cells at high temperature and is suppressed by a single recessive mutant, mcs3-12. Mcs3 acts independently of the Wee1 kinase and Cdc25 phosphatase, two major regulators of Cdc2. We have isolated multicopy suppressors of the cell cycle...
