Abstract excerpt
Drosophila double park encodes a homolog of Cdt1 that functions in initiation of DNA replication in fission yeast and Xenopus. dup mutants complete the first 15 embryonic cell cycles, presumably via maternal dup products, and show defects in the 16(th) S phase (S16). Cells carrying dup(a1) allele forgo S16 altogether but enter mitosis 16 (M16). We find that the timing of entry into M16 is similar in dup(a1) and...
