- Abstract
- The Schizosaccharomyces pombe F-BAR protein, Cdc15, facilitates the linkage between the cytokinetic ring and the plasma membrane. Cdc15 is phosphorylated on many sites by four polarity kinases and this antagonizes membrane interaction. Dephosphorylation of Cdc15 during mitosis induces its phase separation, allowing oligomerization, membrane association, and protein partner binding. Here, using live cell imaging we examined whether spatial separation of Cdc15 from its four identified kinases potentially explains their diverse effects on tip septation and the mitotic Cdc15 phosphorylation state. We identified a correlation between kinase localization and their ability to antagonize Cdc15 cytokinetic ring and membrane localization.
