Control of mitotic transitions by the anaphase–promoting complex [PDF]
Proteolysis controls key transitions at several points in the cell cycle. In mitosis, the activation of a large ubiquitin–protein ligase, the anaphase–promoting complex (APC), is required for anaphase initiation and for exit from mitosis. We show that APC is under complex control by a network of regulatory factors, CDC20, CDH1 and MAD2.

Separase prevents genomic instability by controlling replication fork speed [PDF]
Proper chromosome segregation is crucial for preserving genomic integrity, and errors in this process cause chromosome mis-segregation, which may contribute to cancer development.

A minimal anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) in Trypanosoma brucei. [PDF]
The anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) is a multi-subunit E3 ubiquitin ligase that initiates chromosome segregation and mitotic exit by targeting critical cell-cycle regulators for proteolytic destruction.

Novel regulation of mitotic exit by the Cdc42 effectors Gic1 and Gic2 [PDF]
Copyright @ The Rockefeller University PressThe guanine nucleotide exchange factor Cdc24, the GTPase Cdc42, and the Cdc42 effectors Cla4 and Ste20, two p21-activated kinases, form a signal transduction cascade that promotes mitotic exit in yeast.

Mad2, Bub3, and Mps1 regulate chromosome segregation and mitotic synchrony in Giardia intestinalis, a binucleate protist lacking an anaphase-promoting complex. [PDF]
The binucleate pathogen Giardia intestinalis is a highly divergent eukaryote with a semiopen mitosis, lacking an anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) and many of the mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC) proteins.

Visualizing the complex functions and mechanisms of the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) [PDF]
The anaphase promoting complex or cyclosome (APC/C) is a large multi-subunit E3 ubiquitin ligase that orchestrates cell cycle progression by mediating the degradation of important cell cycle regulators.

Transferring an optimized TAP-toolbox for the isolation of protein complexes to a portfolio of rice tissues [PDF]
Proteins are the cell's functional entities. Rather than operating independently, they interact with other proteins. Capturing in vivo protein complexes is therefore crucial to gain understanding of the function of a protein in a cellular context ...

The anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome: APC/C [PDF]
The major ubiquitin ligase required for mitosis is the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C). This unusually complex E3 ubiquitin ligase targets cell-cycle-related proteins such as cyclins and securin for degradation by the proteasome in mitosis and meiosis.
