Docking interactions: cell-cycle regulation and beyond

Curr Biol. 2014 Jul 21;24(14):R647-R649. doi: 10.1016/j.cub.2014.05.060.

Abstract

In budding yeast, the mating pathway activates Far1 to inhibit G1 cyclins in complex with the cyclin-dependent kinase (Cln-Cdk). Yet, the molecular mechanism has remained largely unclear for over 20 years. A recent report helps shed light on this regulation.
