Question

What is mpf activity

Answer 1

Maturation-promoting factor (abbreviated MPF, also called mitosis-promoting factor or M-Phase-promoting factor) is the cyclin-CDK complex that was discovered first in frog eggs. It stimulates the mitotic and meiotic phases of the cell cycle.

Activity is regulated partly by the synthesis and degradation of cyclin B subunit
