Abstract excerpt
Upon replication fork arrest, the replication checkpoint kinase Cds1 is stimulated to preserve genome integrity. Robust activation of Cds1 in response to hydroxyurea prevents the endonuclease Mus81 from cleaving the stalled replication fork inappropriately. However, we find that the response is different in temperature-sensitive mcm4 mutants, affecting a subunit of the MCM replicative helicase. We show that Cds1...
