Abstract excerpt
Temperature-sensitive mutation of the nimA gene of Aspergillus nidulans causes a reversible G2 arrest, whereas overexpression of nimA causes premature entry into mitosis from which the cells cannot exit. The nimA gene encodes a Ser/Thr-specific protein kinase (NIMA) which contains an extended COOH-terminal noncatalytic domain. To evaluate the role of this enzyme in nuclear division control, we introduced various...
