cdc11 — Schizosaccharomyces pombe 972h-

Summary

cdc11 (SPCC1739.11C) on chromosome 3 of Schizosaccharomyces pombe encodes a protein with leucine-rich repeat domains and is annotated as having signaling adaptor activity. The protein is a component of the SIN/MEN signaling complex, localizing to the outer plaque of the mitotic spindle pole body, the meiotic spindle pole body, and the cytoplasm. This gene is associated with numerous cell cycle processes, including mitotic prometaphase, the mitotic spindle checkpoint, bipolar cell growth, membrane assembly, spindle breakdown, microtubule nucleation, regulation of mitosis, G2 phase, meiosis II, activation of mitotic division septum assembly, regulation of mitotic cytokinesis, polar cell growth, interphase, spore germination, and metaphase. It has also been connected to protein content. Related genes in other species, such as Fusarium oxysporum and Verticillium dahliae, are linked by sequence similarity.
