The G2-to-M transition is ensured by a dual mechanism that protects cyclin B from degradation by Cdc20-activated APC/C
In the eukaryotic cell cycle, a threshold level of cyclin B accumulation triggers the G2-to-M
transition, and subsequent cyclin B destruction triggers mitotic exit. The anaphase-promoting …
