In Cdc27S092309 mutants, there is a high proportion of cells in a metaphase-like state (a ratio of 8.2 metaphase:anaphase compared to 2.8 in wild-type). Along with a low proportion of cells in anaphase. This suggests that Cdc27S092309 cells arrest or delay in metaphase.
Cdc27S092309 anaphase cells are frequently disorganised, with chromosomes lagging along the spindle. A low frequency (~3% of mitoses) of polyploid cells are also found in Cdc27S092309 cells.
In Cdc27S092309 larval stage brains the sister chromosomes of at least one chromosome are found to be separated in 20% of all mitotic figures. 19% of Cdc27S092309 mitotic cells are found to contain a 4N complement of chromosomes in which there are four sites of hybridization indicating that the sister chromosomes are separated. This is compared to a frequency of 0.4% in wild-type metaphase cells.
In mitotic Cdc27S092309 cells, the centromeric regions of the two pairs of major autosomes are present as a series of four separate pairs of dots, indicative of chromosome separation. Approximately 3.0% of Cdc27S092309 cells contain a replicated tetraploid set of chromosomes.
Chromatin in Cdc27S092309 mitotic cells is distributed in a broad band. Cdc27S092309 cells exhibit overcondensed chromosomes.
Using BubR1 to stain the spindle integrity checkpoint complex, up to 16 separated kinetochores of sister chromosomes are observed in Cdc27S092309 cells, similar to the phenotype observed in polo hypomorphs.
In Cdc27S092309 neuroblasts, CycA is maintained at high levels in all cells arrested in a metaphase-like state. CycB accumulates to high levels in all metaphase arrested Cdc27S092309 cells.
Mutation results in a high mitotic index, overcondensed chromosomes, lagging or bridged chromosomes in anaphase and telophase as well as polyploidy in homozygous larval neuroblasts.

The lethal phase of Cdc27S092309 is advanced to an earlier developmental stage when in combination with polo1. The stage of death is also earlier than with polo1 alone. In terms of the mitotic index, the metaphase:anaphase ratio, the condensation state of the chromosomes and the levels of mitotic cyclins, the phenotype of Cdc27S092309 polo1 cells do not differ significantly from that of the Cdc27S092309 single mutant. The polo1 phenotype with respect to spindle pole organisation is enhanced by the Cdc27S092309 mutation. Mitotically arrested Cdc27S092309 polo1 cells, lack the MPM2 epitope at their spindle poles, consistent with diminished levels of polo kinase activity at the spindle poles. Cdc27S092309 is epistatic to polo1 in respect of mitotic progression and cyclin degradation. Cdc27S092309 polo1 double mutant cells display overcondensed chromosomes. In Cdc27S092309 polo1 double mutants the mitotic index, proportions of metaphase:anaphase cells and the proportion of polyploids are similar to that in the Cdc27S092309 mutant alone. The lethal phase of Cdc27S092309 is advanced to an earlier developmental stage when in combination with poloS025604. The stage of death is also earlier than with poloS025604 alone. There is no apparent shift in the lethal phase in the Cdc27S092309 twsS061805 double mutant. Cytological analysis of neuroblasts show an elevated mitotic index and a dramatic reduction of metaphase figures replaced by an elevated frequency of anaphase-telophase figures equivalent to the twsS061805 mutant alone. Therefore the Cdc27S092309 twsS061805 double mutant overcomes the metaphase arrest seen in the Cdc27S092309 single mutant. From the analysis of CycB localisation, it is postulated that Cdc27S092309 twsS061805 double mutant mitotic cells are capable of entering anaphase without activation of the APC/C. Anaphase in these cells is highly abnormal.
