In many organisms, polo kinases appear to play multiple roles during M-phase progression. To provide new insights into the function of budding yeast polo kinase Cdc5p, we generated novel temperature-sensitivecdc5mutants by mutagenizing the C-terminal domain. Here we show that, at a semipermissive temperature, thecdc5-3mutant exhibited a synergistic bud elongation and growth defect with loss ofHSL1, a component important for normal G2/M transition. Loss ofSWE1, which phosphorylates and inactivates the budding yeast Cdk1 homolog Cdc28p, suppressed thecdc5-3 hsl1Δ defect, suggesting that Cdc5p functions at a point upstream of Swe1p. In addition, thecdc5-4andcdc5-7mutants exhibited chained cell morphologies with shared cytoplasms between the connected cell bodies, indicating a cytokinetic defect. Close examination of these mutants revealed delayed septin assembly at the incipient bud site and loosely organized septin rings at the mother-bud neck. Components in the mitotic exit network (MEN) play important roles in normal cytokinesis. However, loss ofBFA1orBUB2, negative regulators of the MEN, failed to remedy the cytokinetic defect of these mutants, indicating that Cdc5p promotes cytokinesis independently of Bfa1p and Bub2p. Thus, Cdc5p contributes to the activation of the Swe1p-dependent Cdc28p/Clb pathway, normal septin function, and cytokinesis.
