Abstract excerpt
Septum formation is a crucial step of cytokinesis in fungi. In the basidiomycete Ustilago maydis, the germinal centre kinase Don3 triggers initiation of a secondary septum necessary for cell separation after cytokinesis. Here we show that oligomerization of Don3 via a putative coiled-coil domain is critical for secondary septum formation. Within the Don3 sequence we detected a characteristic C-terminal sequence...
