Abstract excerpt
We have isolated TINC as a NIMA-interacting protein by using the yeast two-hybrid system and have confirmed that TINC interacts with NIMA in Aspergillus nidulans. The TINC-NIMA interaction is stabilized in the absence of phosphatase inhibitors and in the presence of kinase-inactive NIMA, suggesting that the interaction is enhanced when NIMA is not fully activated. TINC is a cytoplasmic protein. TINC homologues...
