Abstract excerpt
Cdc28 is the main cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) directing the cell cycle in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Besides cyclin binding, Cdc28 requires phosphorylation by the Cak1 kinase to achieve full activity. We have previously isolated carboxy-terminal cdc28(CST) mutants that are temp...
