Abstract excerpt
Genetic analysis in budding yeast has shown that multiple G1 cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases control cell cycle entry, polarized growth, and spindle pole duplication. The G1 cyclins Cln1 and Cln2 associate with the cyclin-dependent kinase Cdc28 to facilitate cell cycle progression and development of the cleavage apparatus. We have developed a chemical genetic approach toward the discovery of compounds that...
