Abstract

Background: Mitotic progression is regulated by reversible protein phosphorylation involving kinases and phosphatases.

Results: Pnuts functions as a master regulator of mitosis by modulating PP1; Pnuts expression peaks in mitosis and is degraded at mitotic exit.

Conclusion: This study reveals the function and regulation of a new and essential mitotic regulator.

Significance: This study improves our understanding of M-phase regulation.
