Abstract excerpt
During mitosis, genomic integrity is maintained by the proper coordination of anaphase entry and mitotic exit through mitotic checkpoints. In budding yeast, exit from mitosis is triggered by the activation of the small GTPase Tem1p. Bfa1p in association with Bub2p negatively regulates Tem1p in response to spindle damage, spindle misorientation, and DNA damage, resulting in cell cycle arrest. To delineate the...
