Greatwall kinase is key for mitotic entry in metazoans, so how can worms do without it? Pintard et al find sole canonical MAST kinase KIN-4 assumes its role in PP2A-B55 phosphatase inhibition and coordination of cell divisions and development in C. elegans www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

We are delighted to share our latest study (www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....), where we identify and characterize a Greatwall-like pathway in C. elegans. Thanks to our sponsors @agencerecherche.bsky.social y.social, La Ligue Contre le Cancer, @ijmonod.bsky.social, @cnrsbiologie.bsky.social
