Abstract excerpt
Separase, a large protease essential for sister chromatid separation, cleaves the cohesin subunit Scc1/Rad21 during anaphase and leads to dissociation of the link between sister chromatids. Securin, a chaperone and inhibitor of separase, is ubiquitinated by APC/cyclosome, and degraded by 26S proteasome in anaphase. Cdc48/VCP/p97, an AAA ATPase, is involved in a variety of cellular activities, many of which are...
