Abstract excerpt
In fission yeast, Scd1/Ral1 is a putative guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Cdc42sp and also acts as a Ras1 effector necessary for the regulation of cytoskeleton organization. In this study, we have characterized a protein, Moe1, that binds directly to Scd1. A moe1 null (Delta) mutant exhibits numerous phenotypes indicative of abnormal microtubule functioning, including an abnormality in the spindle....
