Abstract excerpt
The CDC25 dual-specificity phosphatase family has been shown to play a key role in cell cycle regulation. The phosphatase activity of CDC25 drives the cell cycle by removing inhibitory phosphates from cyclin-dependent kinase/cyclin complexes. Although the regulation of CDC25 phosphatase activity has been elucidated both biochemically and genetically in other systems, the role of this enzyme during development is...
