Abstract excerpt
The MAPKK Byr1 is an essential component of a Ras-dependent MAPK module required for sexual differentiation in the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Here we describe the genetic and molecular characterization of a highly conserved protein, Bob1, which was identified from a two-hybrid screen for Byr1-interacting proteins. Byrl and Bobl proteins coprecipitate from S. pombe cell lysates, and both proteins...
