Abstract

Previous studies of the spindle checkpoint suggested that its ability to prevent entry into anaphase was mediated by the inhibition of the anaphase-promoting complex (APC) ubiquitin ligase by Mad2. Two new studies challenge that view by demonstrating that another checkpoint protein, BubR1, is a far more potent inhibitor of APC function.
