Fission yeast Cyk3p is a transglutaminase-like protein that participates in cytokinesis and cell morphogenesis
We have identified a fission yeast morphogenesis factor (Cyk3p) that functions with myosin II and chitin synthase during cytokinesis. Cyk3p possesses a novel transglutaminase domain that lacks an active site yet is essential for function. Our work demonstrates the physiological importance of such do...
