Abstract excerpt
Septins are a conserved family of eukaryotic GTP-binding, filament-forming proteins. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, five septins (Cdc3p, Cdc10p, Cdc11p, Cdc12p, and Shs1p) form a complex and colocalize to the incipient bud site and as a collar of filaments at the neck of budded cells. Septins serve as a scaffold to localize septin-associated proteins involved in diverse processes and as a barrier to diffusion of...
