(A) Distribution of correlation coefficients for Sp apq12 compared with (B) distribution of correlation coefficients for ScAPQ12 (when different, names for Sc orthologs shown in gray text). (C) Scatter plot of mean scores for Sp apq12 and brr6 versus mean scores for vps32, vps24 and vps4. The following Sc orthologs have different names: SPAC23C4.05c = MSC1, mik1 = SWE1, rad26 = LCD1, mis15 = CHL4, mde4 = LRS4, cut8 = STS1, kap111 = KAP122, nup97 = NIC96, mph1 = MPS1. (D) Scatter plot of mean scores for Sc APQ12 versus VPS4. (E,F) DIC and fluorescence micrographs of the indicated cells expressing constitutive spindle-pole body markers (Cut12-CFP in Sp, Spc42p-GFP in Sc). For the fragmentation/duplication phenotypes observed in Sp the percent penetrance +/− standard deviation is noted. In addition to Spc42p, an outer plaque (Cnm67p-GFP), inner plaque (Spc110p-GFP), and gamma-tubulin (Tub4p-GFP) marked strains were scored (see Fig S4).
