Abstract excerpt
Rho GTPases are small proteins present in all eukaryotic cells, from yeast to mammals, with a function in actin organization and morphogenetic processes. Schizosaccharomyces pombe Rho4 is not essential but it displays a role during cell separation at high temperature. In fact, Rho4 is involved in the secretion of the hydrolytic enzymes that are required for cell septum degradation during this process. In rho4Δ...
