A prometaphase mechanism of securin destruction is essential for meiotic progression in mouse oocytes
Securin inhibits the protease separase and must be removed before anaphase to ensure timely chromosome segregation. Here, the authors define a mechanism of securin destruction in prometaphase I in mouse oocytes and demonstrate its importance for successful meiotic progression.
