Abstract:
Proteins involved in chromosome segregation during mitosis are likely to participate in other cell cycle-coordinated processes. Using a two-hybrid screen we identified a novel nuclear protein, Lin1, interacting with Irr1p/Scc3p, a component of the cohesin complex. The second round of two-hybrid assay with Lin1p as the bait resulted in the identification of six proteins: Prp8, Slx5, Siz2, Wss1, Rfc1 and YIL149w. These proteins have previously been shown to participate in mRNA splicing, DNA replication, chromosome condensation, chromatid separation and alternative cohesion. We propose that Lin1p may constitute a link among these processes.
