“…The activation of the SAC involves the formation of inhibitory complexes between Mad2 and/or Mad3/BubR1 and Cdc20, preventing Cdc20 from activating the APC/C (Hwang et al, 1998;Kim et al, 1998;Wu et al, 2000;Malmanche et al, 2006). The mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC), which contains either (1) BubR1 (Mad3 in yeast), Bub3, Mad2 and Cdc20-or (2) the BubR1-Bub3-Cdc20 and Mad2-Cdc20 subcomplexes (Fang et al, 1998;Hardwick et al, 2000;Fraschini et al, 2001;Millband and Hardwick, 2002;Tang et al, 2001;Sudakin et al, 2001;Fang, 2002).…”
