16. 35S-labeled Clb2 protein and DNA content analysis were performed as described (7). Protein immunoblot analysis of the total amount of Pds1, Ase1, and Cdc28 was done as described (1, 7).
17. To generate a GAL-CDC20 fusion, we engineered a Bgl II site at the AUG of CDC20 and ligated it to an Eco RI to Bam HI fragment carrying the GAL1-10 promoter. The fusion was integrated at the URA3 locus.

22. A 1.8-kb fragment containing the CDH1 gene was isolated from total genomic DNA by polymerase chain reaction. The HIS3 gene was used to replace the CDH1 ORF between the Nhe I and Blp I sites. The 1.8-kb fragment containing the CDH1 gene was also used to generate a GAL-CDH1 fusion that was integrated at the URA3 locus.
23. 1 phase daughter cells were elutriated as described (28). Nocodazole and hydroxyurea were added at concentrations of 15 μg/ml and 10 mg/ml, respectively.
