Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation of three novel human cyclins by rescue of G1 cyclin (cln) function in yeast
TL;DR: Three novel genes have been identified, which are sufficiently distantly related to the other members of the cyclin family and to each other as to constitute three new classes of cyclins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphogenesis in the yeast cell cycle: regulation by Cdc28 and cyclins.
Daniel J. Lew,Steven I. Reed +1 more
TL;DR: In the case of pre-bud site assembly following START, it is found that the actin rearrangement could be triggered by Cln/Cdc28 activation in the absence of de novo protein synthesis, suggesting that the kinase may directly phosphorylate substrates (such as actin-binding proteins) that regulate actin distribution in cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Involvement of an Actomyosin Contractile Ring in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cytokinesis
Erfei Bi,Paul S. Maddox,Daniel J. Lew,Edward D. Salmon,John N. McMillan,Elaine Yeh,John R. Pringle +6 more
TL;DR: The contractile actomyosin ring is not essential for cytokinesis in S. cerevisiae, and in its absence, cytokineses can still be completed by a process that appears to require septin function and to be facilitated by F-actin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytoplasmic activation of GAF, an IFN-gamma-regulated DNA-binding factor.
TL;DR: These findings support the concept that ligand‐specific signals originating at the cell surface are transmitted through latent cytoplasmic proteins which are activated to bind specific DNA sites and then move to the nucleus to activate the transcription of specific sets of genes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulatory roles of cyclin dependent kinase phosphorylation in cell cycle control
Daniel J. Lew,Sally Kornbluth +1 more
TL;DR: This work has uncovered new and unexpected potential roles, and prompted re-examination of previously assumed roles, of Cdk phosphorylation, and identified many of the enzymes that act on these sites.
