Abstract excerpt
Mis12 is a kinetochore protein essential for equal chromosome segregation and is evolutionarily conserved from yeast to human. In this study, we report the isolation and characterization of suppressors of the mis12 mutant in fission yeast. Our results indicate that Mis12 is negatively regulated by a highly conserved protein phosphatase Ppe1 (scSit4/dmPPV/hPP6) or its bound partner Ekc1 (scSAP), and it is...
