Disease relevance of Schizosaccharomyces

 

High impact information on Schizosaccharomyces

  • Based on these findings, we propose and test a model in which Sre1 and Scp1 monitor oxygen-dependent sterol synthesis as an indirect measure of oxygen supply and mediate a hypoxic response in fission yeast [6].
  • The chromodomain of mouse HP1 (and Swi6 in S. pombe) binds H3 methylated at Lys9, and methylation at this site is thought to mark and promote heterochromatin assembly [7].
  • A mutational analysis of c-Src expressed in Schizosaccharomyces pombe demonstrates that replacement of residues in the SH2-SH3 connector with glycine activates c-Src [8].
  • Extending the comparison of telomeric proteins to fission yeast, we identify S. pombe Taz1 as a TRF ortholog, indicating that TRFs are conserved at eukaryotic telomeres [9].
  • In Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the msh2- and pms1-dependent long-patch MMR system efficiently corrects small insertion/deletion loops and all base-base mismatches, except C/C [10].

Associations of Schizosaccharomyces with chemical compounds

  • Furthermore, mutation of nimT, which encodes a protein with 50% similarity to fission yeast cdc25, causes a G2 arrest and prevents tyrosine dephosphorylation of p34cdc2 but does not prevent full activation of the NIMA protein kinase [26].
  • Concerted evolution of tRNA genes: intergenic conversion among three unlinked serine tRNA genes in S. pombe [27].
  • S. pombe gene sds22+ essential for a midmitotic transition encodes a leucine-rich repeat protein that positively modulates protein phosphatase-1 [28].
  • The fission yeast wee1+ gene product is a dose-dependent, negative regulator of entry into mitosis. wee1+ encodes a protein of relative molecular mass 107,000 (Mr 107K), the C-terminal third of which has strong similarities with the serine/threonine protein kinase family [29].
  • A number of mutants of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, selected for their sensitivity to DNA damage caused by radiation (rad mutants) or to the DNA synthesis inhibitor hydroxyurea (hus mutants) have been classified as checkpoint mutants because they fail to arrest the cell cycle in response to DNA damage or incompletely replicated DNA [30].
