Normal role description: CDC27 is a component of anaphase promoting complex/cyclosme and has roles in mediating cell cycle progression. It regulates the degredation of target proteins such as B-type cyclins. It has also been shown to interacted with mitotic checkpoint proteins. Mitotic timing and progression may be a key role of this protein.
