High impact information on cyk-3

  • The cyk-3 gene has been identified and found to encode a ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase that is active against model substrates [1].
  • We have further analyzed the cyk-3 mutant phenotype and have found that cyk-3 mutant embryos fail to properly polarize the actin cytoskeleton and fail to segregate germline determinants [1].
  • However, we have found that cyk-3 mutant embryos are intrinsically defective in osmotic regulation and that the cytokinesis defects can be partially rescued by providing osmotic support [1].
