Abstract excerpt
The delay of S-phase following treatment of yeast cells with DNA-damaging agents is an actively regulated response that requires functional RAD9 and RAD24 genes. An analysis of cell cycle arrest indicates the existence of (at least) two checkpoints for damaged DNA prior to S-phase; one at START (a G1 checkpoint characterized by pheromone sensitivity of arrested cells) and one between the CDC4- and CDC7-mediated...
