Cyclin B-dependent kinase 1, the M-phase-promoting factor, is precisely activated and inactivated to control mitosis. In this study, Fcp1—the RNA polymerase II-carboxy-terminal domain phosphatase—is identified as a phosphatase required to inactivate the M-phase-promoting factor and promote mitosis exit.
