Phosphorylation as a phase separation switch during the cell cycle
The cell cycle is driven by cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). How the global changes in protein phosphorylation mediated by CDKs promote a rapid and ordered cell reorganisation at mitosis onset has long been a mystery. Here, Valverde, Dubra and a consortium led by the Fisher lab (IGMM) and Altelaar lab (University of Utrecht) show that dynamics of protein phosphorylation in the … Continue reading Phosphorylation as a phase separation switch during the cell cycle
