Phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate (PI(3,5)P2) is a low-abundance signaling lipid that plays crucial roles in various cellular processes, including endolysosomal system structure/function, stress response, and cell cycle regulation. PI(3,5)P2 synthesis increases in response to environmental stimuli, yet its behavior in cycling cells under basal conditions remains elusive. Here, we analyzed spatiotemporal changes in PI(3,5)P2 levels during the cell cycle of S.

Mitotic exit in budding yeast is executed by the mitotic exit network (MEN), which is negatively regulated by the spindle position checkpoint (SPOC). SPOC kinase Kin4 is crucial for SPOC activation in response to spindle positioning defects.
