RESUMO

Multiple A- and B-type cyclins have been identified in animals, but their study is complicated by varying degrees of functional redundancy. A single functional A-type cyclin gene was found in invertebrates and two were found in vertebrates. The number and relationship of B-type cyclins varies between Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster and Homo sapiens but all contain at least one cyclin B1-like gene and a cyclin B3 gene.
