Journal ArticleDOI

A highly conserved eukaryotic protein family possessing properties of polypeptide chain release factor

TL;DR: The assignment of a family of tightly related proteins from lower and higher eukaryotes which are structurally and functionally similar to rabbit eRF are reported, concluding that the eRFl proteins are directly implicated in the termination of translation in eukARYotes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Controlling septation in fission yeast: finding the middle, and timing it right.

TL;DR: Analysis of mutants has begun to shed light upon how septum formation and cytokinesis are regulated both spatially and temporally, suggesting that aspects of this control will be common to all eukaryotic cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

An overview of the KIN1/PAR-1/MARK kinase family.

TL;DR: An overview of known roles of KIN1/PAR‐1/MARK kinases including pEg3 a newly identified member which is regulated during the cell cycle and is a potential regulator of thecell cycle progression is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Eukaryotic release factor 1 (eRF1) abolishes readthrough and competes with suppressor tRNAs at all three termination codons in messenger RNA.

TL;DR: ERF1 is functional towards all three termination codons located in a natural mRNA and efficiently competes in vitro with endogenous and exogenous suppressor tRNA(s) at the ribosomal A site, consistent with a crucial role of eRF1 in translation termination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fission yeast cytoskeletons and cell polarity factors: connecting at the cortex

TL;DR: Recent advances in knowledge of molecular pathways leading to the establishment of a cellular axis in fission yeast are reviewed and the role of cortical proteins and mitotic cytoskeletal rearrangements that control the symmetry of cell division are described.
