Abstract excerpt
In response to DNA damage, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae securin Pds1 blocks anaphase promotion by inhibiting ESP1-dependent degradation of cohesins. PDS1 is positioned downstream of the MEC1- and RAD9-mediated DNA damage-induced signal transduction pathways. Because cohesins participate in postreplicative repair and the pds1 mutant is radiation sensitive, we identified DNA repair pathways that are PDS1-dependent....
