CYB-4/CDK-1 coordinates timing of meiotic entry, chromosome morphogenesis and oocyte maturation in C. elegans

Amirhossein Pezeshki, Steven J.M. Jones, Monique Zetka

This study identifies CYB-4 as a meiosis-specific cyclin that coordinates meiotic entry, chromosome structure, and oocyte maturation with CDK-1 in C. elegans.
