Abstract excerpt
MPF and MAP kinase ERK2 are two major M-phase kinases. They interact with each other in a complex way during meiotic maturation of Xenopus laevis oocytes. Here we study their interrelationship during first mitosis in X. laevis embryo cell-free extract perturbing the polyubiquitination pathway as a tool. Recombinant ubiquitin K48R (Ub-K48R) mutant protein arrests mitotic cyclin B degradation in the extract. This...
