The cyanobacteria Prochlorococcus is the most abundant primary producer in the ocean. In
a global study across the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans, we tested the effect of organic …

Checkpoint activation and gene expression modulation represent key determinants of
cellular survival in adverse conditions. The former is regulated by cyclin-dependent kinases …

Genotoxic stress caused by carcinogens like Cigarette smoke activate both the MAPK
pathway and the S phase checkpoint in Schizosacchaomyces pombe. But the cross talk …

Cigarette smoking is a risk factor for developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and
protein aggresome formation is considered to be a hallmark event for the disease. Since …

To assess novel cellular roles and regulation of Rad9 in the fission yeast
Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the full-length rad9 gene was cloned into the shuttle vector …

The large amount of available genome sequencing data presents a huge challenge in the
form of orphan sequences. This study reports the detailed functional characterization of one …

This work was designed to assess regulation of the atf1+ gene in the fission yeast
Schizosaccharomyces pombe under nitrosative and nutritional stresses, using the atf1+ …

The Dbf4 protein is involved in the initiation of DNA replication, in complex with Cdc7 kinase,
and also plays a role in the intra-S-phase checkpoint response via an interaction with Rad53 …
