Check out our new paper by postdoc Debasish Paul, out now in @Nature.com. Cells need a boost of energy to jumpstart the cell cycle, but how can this happen while the APC/C is inhibiting glycolysis? We found cells solve this paradox through a highly dynamic mechanism. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Transient APC/C inactivation by mTOR boosts glycolysis during cell cycle entry - Nature

APC/C activity is transiently inhibited to generate a pulse of glycolysis that is required for mammalian cell cycle entry.
