“…A second study demonstrated that the APC substrate, Pds1, whose degradation is exclusively induced by APC Cdc20 , binds directly Cdc20, whereas it is incapable of associating with Cdh1/Hct1, indicating that Cdc20 and Cdh1/Hct1 recognize and bind their substrates differently and selectively (Hilioti et al, 2001). Further specific and direct interactions of Cdc20 with Pds1 and of Cdh1/Hct1 with Clb2, Clb3 and Cdc5 were also demonstrated in budding yeast (Burton and Solomon, 2001;Schwab et al, 2001). Finally, Pfleger et al (2001a) showed that in the absence of APC, Cdc20 and Cdh1/Hct1 can directly and specifically bind a large number of APC substrates including Xkid, securin, geminin, cyclin A and cyclin B.…”
