Cell cycle regulatory mechanisms in oocyte meiosis...... and finally trying to properly engage with bsky.
Congratulations Chris. Very beautiful @ovarylab.bsky.social. Proud ex supervisor 😊

New paper out = time to actually introduce myself!
I'm Ben, a PDRA in the Egg Lab 🥚 with @suzannemadgwick.bsky.social @ Newcastle University.
I study how oocytes organise chromsomes, developing some cool new tools along the way 🔬 👨🔬
Let's talk #fertility, #imaging, and all things science.

A fantastic primer by Martin Anger highlighting our work on separase control in oocytes! 🥚✂️

Separase plays a key role in cleaving #cohesin complexes during cell division. Martin Anger explores a @plosbiology.org study showing that #separase activity is controled by #cyclin B/CDK1 & securin in #meiosis (and not SGO2, as in mitosis) 🧪 Paper: plos.io/3RAoccz Primer: plos.io/43L91UR
![Differences in control of separase activity between meiosis and mitosis. Separase activity in mitosis is controlled by at least three different pathways: a specific protein inhibitor called securin; phosphorylation and binding to Cyclin/CDK1; and the Mad2/SGO2 complex. According to the results of the new study by Wetherall and colleagues [9], the Mad2/SGO2 complex does not play a role in separase control in oocytes.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5522ztebtekoor5efelihqhb/bafkreiguzyelcl4wlmxfzvtzntffgkvnwjx4jr5ommoe7rgrg4askkmfru@jpeg)
