Preferred Label : Anaphase-Promoting Complex-Cyclosome;
MeSH definition : An E3 ubiquitin ligase primarily involved in regulation of the metaphase-to-anaphase
transition during MITOSIS through ubiquitination of specific CELL CYCLE PROTEINS.
Enzyme activity is tightly regulated through subunits and cofactors, which modulate
activation, inhibition, and substrate specificity. The anaphase-promoting complex,
or APC-C, is also involved in tissue differentiation in the PLACENTA, CRYSTALLINE
LENS, and SKELETAL MUSCLE, and in regulation of postmitotic NEURONAL PLASTICITY and
excitability.;
