Multiple telophase arrest bypassed (tab) mutants alleviate the essential requirement for Cdc15 in exit from mitosis in S. cerevisiae.

Cdc5 influences phosphorylation of Net1 and disassembly of the RENT complex.

Mapping phosphorylation sites in proteins by mass spectrometry.

Mass spectrometry-based methods for phosphorylation site mapping of hyperphosphorylated proteins applied to Net1, a regulator of exit from mitosis in yeast.

Loss of CDC5 function in Saccharomyces cerevisiae leads to defects in Swe1p regulation and Bfa1p/Bub2p-independent cytokinesis.

Phosphorylation by cyclin B-Cdk underlies release of mitotic exit activator Cdc14 from the nucleolus.

Synthetic cooperation in engineered yeast populations.

Using artificial systems to explore the ecology and evolution of symbioses.

Feature Article: Adaptation to a new environment allows cooperators to purge cheaters stochastically.
