Hypothesis

APC/Cdh1 plays essential roles in regulating the cell cycle and other cellular processes.

Conclusion

APC/Cdh1 is crucial for maintaining proper cell cycle transitions and has broader implications beyond mitosis.

Supporting Evidence

  • APC/Cdh1 is essential for preventing premature S phase entry.
  • Cdh1-deficient cells can still proliferate but accumulate mitotic errors.
  • APC/Cdh1 is involved in the regulation of neural functions and learning.

Takeaway

APC/Cdh1 helps control when cells divide and can also affect other important functions in the body.

Methodology

This review summarizes current understanding of APC/Cdh1 function based on various studies.
