Abstract excerpt
Cytokinesis in fission yeast requires the function of an actomyosin-based contractile ring whose constriction is dependent on a signaling module termed the septation initiation network (SIN). In response to minor perturbation of the ring, the duration of SIN signaling is extended concurrently with a delay in nuclear cycle progression. These mechanisms require the conserved phosphatase Clp1p/Flp1p and facilitate...
