Spindle pole body component BBP1, Mps2-binding protein This N-terminal domain of BBP1, a spindle pole body component, interacts directly, though transiently, with the polo-box domain of Cdc5p. full length BBP1 localizes at the cytoplasmic side of the central plaque periphery of the spindle pole body (SPB) and plays an important role in inserting a duplication plaque into the nuclear envelope and assembling a functional inner plaque. Although not a membrane protein itself, BBP1 binds to Mps2 as well as to Spc29 and the half-bridge protein Kar1, thus providing a model for how the SPB core is tethered within the nuclear envelope and to the half-bridge.
