We have defined five sev genes by genetic analysis of Schizosaccharomyces pombe mutants, which are defective in both proliferation and sporulation. sev1+/cdt2+ was transcribed during the G1-S phase of the mitotic cell cycle, as well as during the premeiotic S phase. The mitotic expression of cdt2+ was regulated by the MCB-DSC1 system. A mutant of a component of DSC1 affected cdt2+ expression in vivo, and a cdt2+ promoter fragment containing MCB motifs bound DSC1 in vitro. Cdt2 protein also accumulated in S phase and localized to the nucleus. cdt2 null mutants grew slowly at 30° and were unable to grow at 19°. These cdt2 mutants were also medially sensitive to hydroxyurea, camptothecin, and 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide and were synthetically lethal in combination with DNA replication checkpoint mutations. Flow cytometry analysis and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis revealed that S-phase progression was severely retarded in cdt2 mutants, especially at low temperatures. Under sporulation conditions, premeiotic DNA replication was impaired with meiosis I blocked. Furthermore, overexpression of suc22+, a ribonucleotide reductase gene, fully complemented the sporulation defect of cdt2 mutants and alleviated their growth defect at 19°. These observations suggest that cdt2+ plays an important role in DNA replication in both the mitotic and the meiotic life cycles of fission yeast.
