THE PCH FAMILY PROTEIN, CDC15P, INTERACTS DIRECTLY WITH TWO ACTIN NUCLEATION PATHWAYS TO CONTRIBUTE TO CYTOKINETIC ACTIN RING FORMATION IN SCHIZOSACCHAROMYCES POMBE

Cytokinetic actomyosin ring formation (CAR) in S. pombe requires two independent actin nucleation pathways, one dependent on the Arp2/3 complex and another involving the formin Cdc12p. Here we investigate the role of the PCH family protein, Cdc15p, in CAR assembly and find that it interacts with pro...
