Current Biology, 2009 Mitosis is governed by the oscillation of cyclin dependent kinase (CDK) activity and ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis. Entry into mitosis is initiated by mitotic cyclin-CDK activation. Anaphase onset occurs upon activation of the Anaphase Promoting Complex/Cyclosome (APC/C), a ubiquitin ligase that promotes the destruction of the anaphase inhibitor ...
