Cyclin
Cyclin explained in an easy to understand way:
Imagine you're trying to organize a dinner party, but you need to ensure everything happens at the right time, from cooking to serving. Cyclins in the cell cycle are like the event planners of your party, ensuring each phase transitions smoothly, much like how you'd coordinate cooking, setting the table, and serving the meal. Just as your dinner party would fall apart without someone timing each task correctly, the cell relies on cyclins to regulate the timing and progression of each stage in the cell cycle, ensuring everything happens in the proper order.
