Actin and Cytokinesis in Fission Yeasts
Original language description
F-actin occurs in several forms in yeasts:(i) hypothetically F-actin is a part of cytoskeletal subsystems of membrane cytoskeleton, (ii)microfilament cables are related to cell polarity, (iii) actin patches are at regions of surface growth, (iv) F-actinas a component of actin contractile ring realises cytokinesis. This report concentrates on the function of F-actin at cell division of fission yeasts. F-actin is essential, but not a single component of mechanism of cell division. Comparison of (i) actinmutant of S.pombe, incapable to aassemble actin cytoskeleton even at permissive temperature, and (ii) inhibition of actin polymerization by cytochalasin D in S.pombe and S. japonicus suggests that F-actin contractile ring is the main component ensuring the course of cytokinesis. While in actin mutant incapability of formation of actin cytoskeleton is followed by a complex of irreversible changes of cell functions and, consequently, also by incapability of cytokinesis, inhibition of F-act
