The Hammer and the Dance of Cell Cycle Control

Abstract excerpt

Cell cycle checkpoints secure ordered progression from one cell cycle phase to the next. They are important to signal cell stress and DNA lesions and to stop cell cycle progression when severe problems occur. Recent work suggests, however, that the cell cycle control machinery responds in more subtle and sophisticated ways when cells are faced with naturally occurring challenges, such as replication impediments...
