Akiko Takahashi,Ryo Okada,Koji Nagao,Yuka Kawamata,Aki Hanyu,Shin Yoshimoto,Masaki Takasugi,Sugiko Watanabe,Masato T. Kanemaki,Chikashi Obuse,Eiji Hara,Eiji Hara,Eiji Hara +12 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that exosome secretion maintains cellular homeostasis by removing harmful cytoplasmic DNA from cells, and provide valuable new insights into the control of cellularHomeostasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cut2 proteolysis required for sister-chromatid separation in fission yeast
TL;DR: The anaphase-specific proteolysis of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Cut2 protein is reported, which is essential for sister-chromatid separation and can be overcome by grafting the N terminus of cyclin B onto the truncated Cut2, demonstrating that the regulated proteolyses of Cut2 is essential to separation of sister chromatids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of fission yeast cohesin: essential anaphase proteolysis of Rad21 phosphorylated in the S phase
Takeshi Tomonaga,Koji Nagao,Yosuke Kawasaki,Kanji Furuya,Akiko Murakami,Jun Morishita,Tatsuro Yuasa,Takashi Sutani,Stephen E. Kearsey,Frank Uhlmann,Kim Nasmyth,Mitsuhiro Yanagida +11 more
TL;DR: Initial characterization of four putative cohesin subunits, Psm1, P sm3, Rad21, and Psc3, in fission yeast are reported, which are essential for sister chromatid cohesion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of multivariate statistical process monitoring methods with applications to the Eastman challenge problem
Manabu Kano,Koji Nagao,Shinji Hasebe,Iori Hashimoto,Hiromu Ohno,Ramon Strauss,Bhavik R. Bakshi +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, two advanced methods, moving principal component analysis (MPCA) and DISSIM, have been proposed to improve the performance of multivariate statistical process control (MSPC).
Journal ArticleDOI
Human POGZ modulates dissociation of HP1alpha from mitotic chromosome arms through Aurora B activation
Ryu-Suke Nozawa,Koji Nagao,Koji Nagao,Hiro-taka Masuda,Osamu Iwasaki,Osamu Iwasaki,Toru Hirota,Naohito Nozaki,Hiroshi Kimura,Chikashi Obuse +9 more
TL;DR: Results reveal POGZ as an essential protein that links HP1α dissociation with Aurora B kinase activation during mitosis and is required for the correct activation and dissociation of Aurora B Kinase from chromosome arms during M phase.
