Abstract excerpt
Rad53 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a checkpoint kinase whose structure and function are conserved among eukaryotes. When a cell detects damaged DNA, Rad53 activity is dramatically increased, which ultimately leads to changes in DNA replication, repair, and cell division. Despite its central role in checkpoint signaling, little is known about Rad53 substrates or substrate specificity. A number of proteins are...
