Phosphoregulation of the Cdc25 phosphatase and its effects on Schizosaccharomyces pombe mitotic entrance and exit

Cdk1 kinase dephosphorylation and activation by Cdc25 phosphatase is essential for mitotic entry. Activated Cdk1 phosphorylates Cdc25 and other substrates, further activating Cdc25 to form a positive feedback loop that drives the abrupt G2/mitosis switch. Conversely, mitotic exit requires Cdk1 inact...
