Meiotic progression relies on maintaining a precise balance between cyclin B/CDK1 activity and the phosphatase PP2A-B55. The latter is negatively regulated by the Greatwall kinase (Gwl). In maturing Xenopus oocytes, we show that the loss of Gwl and the subsequent hyperactivation of PP2A-B55 prevents...
