A multivalent docking platform and Rcn1-mediated inhibition control the extent of calcineurin recruitment to the cell division site for the dephosphorylation of multiple cytokinetic proteins

Cytokinesis requires coordinated signaling to ensure the accurate physical separation of daughter cells. Calcineurin (CN), a conserved Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent phosphatase, is required for cytokinesis in organisms ranging from yeast to humans, yet how CN is regulated at the division site and the substrates through which it promotes cell division remain poorly understood. Here we use the fission…
