“…The following genes are known as genes encoding the negative regulators of Swe1 kinase: the septin genes (CDC3, CDC10, CDC11, CDC12 and SHS1), ELM1, NAP1, CLA4, HSL7 and the Nim1-related kinase genes (GIN4, HSL1 and KCC4) (Sreenivasan and Kellogg, 1999;Barral et al, 1999;Longtine et al, 2000;Shulewitz et al, 1999;Burton and Solomon, 2000). In a mutant of any of these genes, most probably due to the activation of Swe1 kinase, a bud retain its polar growth and consequently it becomes elongated (Altman and Kellogg, 1997;Tjandra et al, 1998). The pathway comprising these genes is called the mitotic signaling network.…”
