Abstract excerpt
Spy1 is the originally identified member of the Speedy/Ringo family of vertebrate cell cycle regulators, which can control cell proliferation and survival through the atypical activation of cyclin-dependent kinases. Here we report a role for Spy1 in apoptosis and checkpoint activation in response to UV irradiation. Using an inducible system allowing for regulated expression of Spy1, we show that Spy1 expression...
