pom1 | DYRK-family kinase pom1; Polarity factor involved in localization of polarized growth and cytokinesis. Forms an intracellular gradient that serves to measure cell length and control mitotic entry. Controls the timing of mitotic commitment by regulating the inhibitory impact of cdr1/cdr2 on wee1 activity. Directly phosphorylates the tail of cdr2 which inhibits cdr2 activation by ssp1. Cdr2 phosphorylation by pom1 also modulates cdr2 association with membranes and inhibits cdr2 interaction with mid1, reducing its clustering ability, possibly via the down-regulation of cdr2 kinase activit [...] (1087 aa) | ||||

tea1 | Tip elongation aberrant protein 1; Cell polarity protein. Acts as an end marker, directing the growth machinery to the cell poles. Involved in the regulation of microtubular organization, affecting the maintenance of a single central axis. Prevents the curling of microtubule tips around the cell ends and is required for the retention of polarity factors such as pom1, tip1 and tea2 at the cell ends, necessary for the cell to grow in a straight line. Links tip1 and tea4 in a common complex. (1147 aa) | ||||

plo1 | Serine/threonine-protein kinase plo1; Required to form a bipolar spindle, the actin ring and septum. Functions upstream of the whole septum formation pathway, including actin ring formation (regulated by late septation genes) and septal material deposition (regulated by early septation genes). Behaves as a 'septum-promoting factor', and could also be involved in inducing other late events of cell division.
