Racing through C. elegans mitosis using cyclin B3

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Racecar drivers use left-foot braking, i.e., simultaneously engaging brake and throttle, to carefully balance acceleration and traction when navigating chicanes. In this issue, Lara-Gonzalez et al. (https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202308034) show that C. elegans embryos employ the molecular equivalent of left-foot braking to faithfully speed through mitosis.
