In eukaryotes, regulation of cell cycle progression depends on the expression of cyclins proteins. Degradation of mitotic cyclins follows ubiquitin-dependent pathways. The anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) plays a vital role in progression. Initially at anaphase the APC/C requires the activator protein CDC20 to target securin and cyclin B1 for proteasome-dependent degradation, but later it require Cdh1 to maintain its active state till the next S phase. Another cyclin A/cdk2 mediated phosphorylation of Cdh1 may also prevents the activatory assembly of Cdh1 with APC, thus creating an environment permissive for accumulation of APC targets. It mediates Ca2+ dependent homophilic interactions, as the major adhesion receptor in adherens junctions.
