Abstract

The budding yeast Polo-like kinase Cdc5 is a key regulator of many mitotic events. Cdc5 coordinates its functions spatially and temporally by changing its localization during the cell cycle: Cdc5 is imported into the nucleus in G2 phase and is released to the cytoplasm in anaphase, where it accumulates at the bud neck. Cdc5 also localizes to the spindle pole bodies (SPBs) from S phase until the end of mitosis. Whether Cdc5 changes its SPB population during the cell cycle is not known. We find that Cdc5 localizes to distinct SPB subpopulations depending on the mitotic stage. Cdc5 localizes to the nuclear side of the SPBs during metaphase and early anaphase, and to the cytoplasmic surface of the SPBs during late anaphase. Cdc14 is necessary to re-localize Cdc5 from the nuclear SPB plaque. Accumulation of Cdc5 at the daughter SPB in late anaphase is controlled by Bfa1. We also show that Cdc5 and Bfa1 are found in spatially distinct locations at the SPBs during G2/M arrest following DNA damage. Collectively, our data reveals that Cdc5 is a dynamic component of the SPBs during mitosis and provides new insight into its regulation, both during late mitotic events and DNA damage-induced G2/M arrest.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 29 June 2017.
All research outputs
#17,289,387
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Molecular Biology of the Cell
#4,155
of 5,478 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#210,198
of 324,325 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Molecular Biology of the Cell
#48
of 71 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,478 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.7. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 324,325 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 71 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 25th percentile – i.e., 25% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
