Mad2 “Opens” Cdc20 for BubR1 Binding [PDF]
In this issue of Molecular Cell, Han et al. (2013) demonstrate that Mad2 induces a conformational change in Cdc20 that permits BubR1 binding, thereby producing the physiologically relevant APC/C(Cdc20) inhibitor.

Modeling Dual Pathways for the Metazoan Spindle Assembly Checkpoint [PDF]
Using computational modelling, we investigate mechanisms of signal transduction focusing on the spindle assembly checkpoint where a single unattached kinetochore is able to signal to prevent cell cycle progression.

Cdc20 associates with the kinase aurora2/Aik [PDF]
Cdc20/fizzy family proteins are involved in activation of the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome, which catalyzes the ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis of cell cycle regulatory proteins such as anaphase inhibitors and mitotic cyclins, leading to chromosome segregation and exit from mitosis.

Therapeutic target discovery using Boolean network attractors: avoiding pathological phenotypes [PDF]
Target identification, one of the steps of drug discovery, aims at identifying biomolecules whose function should be therapeutically altered in order to cure the considered pathology.

Cdc20 in S-phase: The Banquo at Replication’s Banquet [PDF]
The Anaphase Promoting Complex/Cyclosome (APC/C) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that covalently attaches ubiquitins onto proteins to target them for proteolysis by the 26S proteasome. During mitosis, the APC/C is instrumental in allowing the cell to enter and exit from mitosis. The APC/C accomplishes this by using different specificity factors to recognize,

M2I-1 disrupts the in vivo interaction between CDC20 and MAD2 and increases the sensitivities of cancer cell lines to anti-mitotic drugs via MCL-1s [PDF]
Background Drugs such as taxanes, epothilones, and vinca alkaloids are widely used in the treatment of breast, ovarian, and lung cancers but come with major side effects such as neuropathy and loss of neutrophils and as single agents have a lack of ...

CDC20 facilitates the proliferation of esophageal carcinoma cell by stabilizing NLRP3 expression [PDF]
Background and purpose: Esophageal carcinoma (ESCA) is one of the malignant tumors with high mortality rate, and the underlying mechanism of its development is largely unknown.

A quantitative model of the initiation of DNA replication in Saccharomyces cerevisiae predicts the effects of system perturbations. [PDF]
BackgroundEukaryotic cell proliferation involves DNA replication, a tightly regulated process mediated by a multitude of protein factors. In budding yeast, the initiation of replication is facilitated by the heterohexameric origin recognition complex ...
