We have identified a Caenorhabditis elegans homolog of p34cdc2 kinase. The C. elegans homolog, ncc-1, is approximately 60% identical to p34cdc2 of Homo sapiens. When expressed from a constitutive yeast promoter, ncc-1 is capable of complementing a conditional lethal mutation in the CDC28 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, indicating that this C. elegans homolog can properly regulate the cell cycle.
