Yeast Cip1 is activated by environmental stress to inhibit Cdk1–G1 cyclins via Mcm1 and Msn2/4
Abstract
A G1 cell cycle regulatory kinase Cip1 has been identified in budding yeast but how this is regulated is unclear. Here the authors identify cell cycle (Mcm1) and stress-mediated (Msn 2/4) transcription factors as regulating Cip1, causing stress induced CDK inhibition and delay in cell cycle progression.
