Abstract excerpt
Nuclear actin-related proteins play vital roles in transcriptional regulation; however, their biological roles remain elusive. Here, we characterize Alp5, fission yeast homolog of Arp4/BAF53. The temperature-sensitive mutant alp5-1134 contains a single amino acid substitution in the conserved C-terminal domain (S402N) and displays mitotic phenotypes, including chromosome condensation and missegregation. Alp5...
