Binding of cAMP by an R subunit of PKA occurs in a cooperative fashion; i.e., binding of the first cAMP molecule to CNB-B lowers the Kd for binding of the second cAMP to CNB-A.

MKLP1 is inhibited by 14-3-3 to ensures that the spindle midzone microtubules do not compact until the end of anaphase

During anaphase, when cyclin B-CDK1 activity is extinguished but Aurora and Polo kinases are still active, Aurora B phosphorylates MKLP1 and displaces the 14-3-3, allowing compact the spindle midzone.
