Abstract excerpt
Centrosome duplication must be tightly regulated to maintain genomic stability. In Caenorhabditis elegans, the APC/C and co-activator FZR-1 function as negative regulators of centrosome duplication by targeting specific substrates for proteolytic degradation. While C. elegans SAS-5 and ZYG-1 have been identified as substrates of APC/CFZR-1, the mechanism by which APC/CFZR-1-dependent degradation influences...
