The activation loop residue serine 173 of <i>S.pombe</i> Chk1 kinase is critical for the response to DNA replication stress
2017-07-16
Abstract excerpt
Why the DNA damage checkpoint kinase Chk1 protects the genome of lower and higher eukaryotic cells differentially is still unclear. Mammalian Chk1 regulates replication origins, safeguards DNA replication forks and promotes fork progression. Conversely, yeast Chk1 acts only in G1 and G2. We report here that the mutation of serine 173 (S173A) in the activation loop of fission yeast Chk1 abolishes the G1-M and S-M c...
