Tem1 localization to the spindle pole bodies is essential for mitotic exit and impairs spindle checkpoint function

Mauricio Valerio-Santiago and Fernando Monje-Casas Abstract The mitotic exit network (MEN) is a signaling cascade that triggers inactivation of the mitotic cyclin-dependent kinases and exit from mitosis. The GTPase Tem1 localizes on the spindle pole bodies (SPBs) and initiates MEN signaling. Tem1 activity is inhibited until anaphase by Bfa1-Bub2. These proteins are also part of the spindle position checkpoint (SPOC), a … Continue reading
