Novel interactions of fission yeast kinesin 8 revealed through in vivo expression of truncation alleles.

Cell motility and the cytoskeleton - 1 Aug 2008

West Robert R, McIntosh J Richard

Abstract excerpt

Fission yeast expresses two kinesin 8s, klp5+ and klp6+, which are important for diverse cellular functions: mitosis, meiosis, and the maintenance of normal cell morphology. During vegetative growth these motors display complex localization patterns, moving from the cytoplasm during interphase to the kinetochores in early mitosis, the interpolar spindle in anaphase B, and then back into the cytoplasm. We have...
