Abstract

Staurosporine, a potent inhibitor of protein kinase C, arrests fission yeast cell elongation specifically at a stage immediately after cell division. We isolated two genes, which, when carried on multicopy plasmids, confer drug resistance in fission yeast. One, spk1+, encodes a protein kinase highly similar (54% identity) to those encoded by the mammalian ERK1/MAP2 kinase and the budding yeast KSS1 and FUS3 genes. It is not essential for vegetative growth of Schizosaccharomyces pombe cells but is required for conjugation. The spk1+ gene product is a 45-kD protein enriched in the nucleus, and its level increases 10-fold after addition of staurosporine. The other gene pap1+ encodes an AP-1-like transcription factor that contains a region rich in basic amino acids followed by a "leucine zipper" motif. The pap1+ gene is required for spk1(+)-conferred staurosporine resistance. These two genes appear to function as a part of the fission yeast growth control pathway.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
