Primary data for EPFL thesis "Characterisation of conditional alleles of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe cytokinesis regulator byr4"

Regulation of cytokinesis is essential for the cell during its division cycle. Failure to do so can lead to aneuploidy, which can be fatal and lead to senescence or cancer. A useful model organism for studying cytokinesis in eukaryotes is Schizosaccharomyc ...

An Extended, Boolean Model of the Septation Initiation Network in S-pombe Provides Insights into Its Regulation

Viesturs Simanis, Andrea Krapp, Elena Cano, Anastasia Chasapi, Ioannis Xenarios

Cytokinesis in fission yeast is controlled by the Septation Initiation Network (SIN), a protein kinase signaling network using the spindle pole body as scaffold. In order to describe the qualitative behavior of the system and predict unknown mutant behavio ...

Evidence of Surface Loss as Ubiquitous Limiting Damping Mechanism in SiN Micro- and Nanomechanical Resonators

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo

Silicon nitride (SiN) micro-and nanomechanical resonators have attracted a lot of attention in various research fields due to their exceptionally high quality factors (Qs). Despite their popularity, the origin of the limiting loss mechanisms in these struc ...

Isolation and Characterisation of Regulators of the Septation Initiation Network Regulators in Fission Yeast

Anupama Goyal

The septation initiation network (SIN) in Schizosaccharomyces pombe regulates cytokinesis. Cdc7p encodes the first kinase in the core SIN pathway. In this study, I performed a genetic screen to identify novel regulators of the SIN pathway by isolating spon ...

Robust PECVD SiC membrane made for stencil lithography

Jürgen Brugger, Andreea Veronica Savu, Shenqi Xie, Oscar Vazquez Mena, Katrin Sidler Arnet, Wei Tang

Stencil lithography (SL) is a shadow mask technique which allows parallel, resistless, micro- and nano- patterning of material through apertures created in a membrane (stencil) onto a substrate. The stencils are usually made of LPCVD low-stress SiN due to ...

Experimental investigation of the spreading of viscoplastic fluids on inclined planes

Christophe Ancey, Steve Cochard

We report experimental results related to the dam-break problem for viscoplastic fluids. Using image processing techniques, we were able to accurately reconstruct the free-surface evolution of fixed volumes of fluid suddenly released a plane. We used Carbo ...

Homoeostasis between the GTPase Spg1p and its GAP in the regulation of cytokinesis in S. pombe

Viesturs Simanis, Andrea Krapp, Elena Cano

Cytokinesis in Schizosaccharomyces pombe begins at mitotic entry, when the site of division is defined by formation of the contractile acto-myosin ring (CAR) at the cell cortex. Contraction of the CAR and formation of the division septum are triggered at t ...

Recruitment of NIMA kinase shows that maturation of the S. pombe spindle-pole body occurs over consecutive cell cycles and reveals a role for NIMA in modulating SIN activity

Viesturs Simanis, Andrea Krapp

Mitotic exit in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and septation in Schizosaccharomyces pombe are regulated by a conserved signaling network called the mitotic exit and septum initiation networks (SIN), respectively. The network is active on one of the two anaphase ...

Analysis of the S. pombe signalling scaffold protein Cdc11p reveals an essential role for the N-terminal domain in SIN signalling

Viesturs Simanis, Andrea Krapp, Elena Cano

The initiation of cytokinesis in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe is signalled by the septation initiation network (SIN). Signalling originates from the spindle pole body (SPB), where SIN proteins are anchored by a scaffold composed of cdc11p an ...
