Abstract excerpt
Sister chromatid separation requires two steps of proteolysis. Securin, the chaperon and inhibitor of separase, is destructed in anaphase after polyubiquitination, and resulting activated separase cleaves the cohesin subunit Scc1/Rad21. Fission yeast securin/Cut2 and separase/Cut1 that form the complex are essential for viability and a number of temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants have been isolated. We here...
