Dissection of a complex phenotype by functional genomics reveals roles for the yeast cyclin-dependent protein kinase Pho85 in stress adaptation and cell integrity.

Abstract excerpt

Cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) are key regulators of the cell division cycle. Pho85 is a multifunctional Cdk in budding yeast involved in aspects of metabolism, the cell cycle, cell polarity, and gene expression. Consistent with a broad spectrum of functions, Pho85 associates with a family of 10 cyclins and deletion of PHO85 causes a pleiotropic phenotype. Discovering the physiological substrates of protein...
