Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

CCNB1 (Cyclin B1) is the regulatory subunit of the CDK1–CCNB1 (MPF) kinase complex that drives the G2-to-M phase transition, with essential roles in mitotic entry, spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) signaling, and separase inhibition. CDK1–CCNB1 localizes to unattached kinetochores via the MAD1 N-terminus and phosphorylates MPS1 at S281 to sustain SAC arrest, while also forming a CDK1–CCNB1–CKS1 inhibitory complex that directly blocks separase-mediated cohesin cleavage (PMID:30674583, PMID:30674582, PMID:34616878). CCNB1 abundance is tightly controlled: transcription is activated by FOXM1 (recruiting CBP/P300), NF-Y, E2F1 (recruited by AURKA), ISL1, and STOX1A (PMID:29705704, PMID:28522800, PMID:38655290, PMID:27183908, PMID:22253775); mRNA stability is modulated by m7G (WDR4/EIF2A) and m6A (METTL3) modifications (PMID:34244479, PMID:39954139); translational timing in oocytes depends on alternative polyadenylation-generated 3′-UTR variants regulated by a CPEB1/MAPK/CDK1 positive-feedback loop (PMID:28808066, PMID:33282880); and protein turnover is governed by APC/C–CDC20-mediated ubiquitination counteracted by the deubiquitinases USP22 and UCHL1 (PMID:27030811, PMID:38858680). MAPK1 directly phosphorylates CCNB1 at Ser128 to promote its nuclear translocation and mitotic entry, and conditional CCNB1 knockout in mouse male germ cells causes sterility through gonocyte/spermatogonia depletion, demonstrating its essential role in germ-cell proliferation (PMID:41905453, PMID:29072697).
