Abstract excerpt
The WEE1 kinase is an essential cell cycle checkpoint regulator in Arabidopsis thaliana plants experiencing replication defects. Whereas under non-stress conditions WEE1-deficient plants develop normally, they fail to adapt to replication inhibitory conditions, resulting in the accumulation of DNA damage and loss of cell division competence. We identified mutant alleles of the genes encoding subunits of the...
