The Schizosaccharomyces pombe Map4 adhesin is a glycoprotein that can be extracted from the cell wall with alkali but not with beta-glucanases and requires the C-terminal DIPSY domain for function
In fungi, cell adhesion is required for flocculation, mating and virulence, and it is mediated by covalently
bound cell wall proteins termed adhesins. Map4, an adhesin required for mating in Schizosaccharomyces
The ER-localized claudin-like Dni2 protein regulates the localization of Dni1p at a plasma membrane microdomain to mediate cell fusion during mating
Cell fusion requires the reorganization of cellular envelopes,
which is a challenging process that must be tightly controlled.
The involvement of Schizosaccaromyces pombe fusion-promoting
proteins Dni1p ...
The clathrin light chain is essential for cell wall synthesis and viability in Schizosaccharomyces pombe
The regulation of cell wall synthesis by the clathrin light chain has been addressed. Schizosaccharomyces pombe clc1Δ mutant was inviable in the absence of osmotic stabilization, while in other organisms as Saccharomyces ...
Cellular function of clathrin light chain in Schizosaccharomyces pombe
We have addressed the function of the clathrin light chain Clc1+p in vesicle trafficking and morphogenesis in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. We show here that deletion of clc1 is lethal and that this lethality is remedied by ...
The FN3 and BRCT motifs in the exomer component Chs5p define a conserved module that is necessary and sufficient for its function
Chs5p is a component of the exomer, a coat complex required to transport the chitin synthase Chs3p
from the trans-Golgi network to the plasma membrane. The Chs5p N-terminal region exhibits fibronectin type III (FN3) ...
Regulation of Cell Wall Synthesis by the Clathrin Light Chain Is Essential for Viability in Schizosaccharomyces pombe
The regulation of cell wall synthesis by the clathrin light chain has been addressed. Schizosaccharomyces pombe clc1D mutant was inviable in the absence of osmotic stabilization; when grown in sorbitol-supplemented medium ...
The tetraspan protein Dni1p is required for correct membrane organization and cell wall remodelling during mating in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
In fungi, success of mating requires that both cells agglutinate, modify their extracellular envelopes, and
fuse their plasma membranes and nuclei to produce a zygote. Here we studied the role of the Schizosaccharomyces ...
The integrity of the cytokinesis machinery under stress conditions requires the glucan synthase Bgs1p and its regulator Cfh3p
In yeast, cytokinesis requires coordination between nuclear division, acto-myosin ring contraction, and septum synthesis. We studied the role of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Bgs1p and Cfh3p proteins during cytokinesis ...
Membrane Organization and Cell Fusion During Mating in Fission Yeast Requires Multipass Membrane Protein Prm1
The involvement of Schizosaccharomyces pombe prm1+ in cell fusion during mating and its relationship with other genes required for this process have been addressed. S. pombe prm1D mutant exhibits an almost complete blockade ...
