Checkpoint and Coordinated Cellular Responses to DNA Damage
The DNA damage and replication checkpoints are signaling mechanisms that regulate and coordinate cellular responses to genotoxic conditions. The...
-
Regulation of S Phase
Regulation of DNA replication is critical for accurate and timely dissemination of genomic material to daughter cells. The cell uses a variety of...
-
Control of Cell Proliferation and Growth by Myc Proteins
Myc proteins act as signal transducers that alter cell proliferation in dependence on signals from the extracellular environment. In normal cells,...

The Retinoblastoma Gene Family in Cell Cycle Regulation and Suppression of Tumorigenesis
Since its discovery in 1986, as the first tumor suppressor gene, the retinoblastoma gene (Rb) has been extensively studied. Numerous biochemical and...

Mouse Models of Cell Cycle Regulators: New Paradigms
In yeast, a single cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) is able to regulate diverse cell cycle transitions (S and M phases) by associating with multiple...
-
G1 Phase: Components, Conundrums, Context
A eukaryotic cell must coordinate DNA synthesis and chromosomal segregation to generate a faithful replica of itself. These events are confined to...
-
The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in cell cycle control
Ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis is one of the key mechanisms underlying cell cycle control. The removal of barriers posed by accumulation of...
-
Protein Kinases Involved in Mitotic Spindle Checkpoint Regulation
A number of checkpoint controls function to preserve the genome by restraining cell cycle progression until prerequisite events have been properly...
-
The Centrosome Cycle
Centrosomes are dynamic organelles involved in many aspects of cell function and growth. Centrosomes act as microtubule organizing centers, and...

Modeling Cell Cycle Control and Cancer with pRB Tumor Suppressor
Cancer is a complex syndrome of diseases characterized by the increased abundance of cells that disrupts the normal tissue architecture within...
-
Cell Cycle Regulation in Mammalian Germ Cells
Meiosis is a unique form of cellular division by which a diploid cell produces genetically distinct haploid gametes. Initiation and regulation of...
