Nek2 (for NIMA-related kinase 2) is a mammalian cell cycle–regulated kinase structurally
related to the mitotic regulator NIMA of Aspergillus nidulans. In human cells, Nek2 associates …

Much remains unknown about the molecular regulation of meiosis. Here we show that
meiosis-specific transcripts are selectively removed if expressed during vegetative growth in …

Duplicating centrosomes are paired during interphase, but are separated at the onset of
mitosis. Although the mechanisms controlling centrosome cohesion and separation are …

Plo1‐associated casein kinase activity peaked during mitosis before septation. Phosphatase
treatment abolished this activity. Mitotic Plo1 activation had a requirement for prior …

Autophagy is a conserved bulk protein degradation process that is proposed to play a role
in events that arise when organisms are forced to radically change their fate, including …

The activated androgen receptor (AR) in decidualizing human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs)
regulates genes involved in cytoskeletal organization, cell motility, and cell cycle …

A defect in the map3 gene of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe causes h +
mating-type-specific sterility. This gene was cloned by complementation. Nucleotide sequence …

Fission yeast Cdc42p, a small GTPase of the Rho family, is essential for cell proliferation and
maintenance of the rod-like cell morphology. Scd1/Ral1p is a GDP-GTP exchange factor (…

Intestinal alkaline phosphatase (IAP) is involved in the process of fat absorption, a conclusion
confirmed by an altered lipid transport and a faster body weight gain from 10 to 30 wk in …

Recent studies have revealed a significant decrease in white matter volume, including loss
of myelin, with age but minimal decrease in gray matter volume (Guttmann et al.,[1998] …
