Abstract excerpt
In the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, cytokinesis is thought to be controlled by the daughter spindle-pole body (SPB) through a regulatory pathway named the septation initiation network (SIN). Here, we demonstrate that laser ablation of both, but not a single SPB, results in failure of cytokinesis. Ablation of only the daughter SPB often leads to activation of the SIN on the mother SPB and successful...
