摘要: We have investigated the mechanisms responsible for sudden activation of cdc2-cyclin B protein kinase before mitosis. It has been found previously that cdc25 is tyrosine phosphatase dephosphorylating and activating B. In Xenopus eggs early embryos a homologue undergoes periodic phosphorylation activation. Here we show catalytic activity human cdc25-C also activated directly by in mitotic cells. Phosphorylation HeLa extracts or increases its activity. not substrate cyclin A-associated kinases. able to activate B1 egg induce oocyte maturation, but only after stable thiophosphorylation. This demonstrates required entry into M-phase. Together, these studies offer plausible explanation rapid at onset mitosis self-amplification MPF observed vivo.
