Abstract excerpt
The fission yeast BRCT domain protein Rad4/Cut5 is required for genome integrity checkpoint responses and DNA replication. Here we address the position at which Rad4/Cut5 acts within the checkpoint response pathways. Rad4 is shown to act upstream of the effector kinases Chk1 and Cds1, as both Chk1 phosphorylation and Cds1 kinase activity require functional Rad4. Phosphorylation of Rad9, Rad26 and Hus1 in response...
