Cell cycle checkpoint signaling through the ATM and ATR kinases.
The genomes of eukaryotic cells are under continuous assault by environmental agents (e.g., UV light and reactive chemicals) as well as the byproducts of normal intracellular metabolism (e.g., reactive oxygen intermediates and inaccurately replicated DNA)

Pathways for Genome Integrity in G2 Phase of the Cell Cycle
The maintenance of genome integrity is important for normal cellular functions, organism development and the prevention of diseases, such as cancer. Cellular pathways respond immediately to DNA breaks leading to the initiation of a multi-facetted DNA ...

Aim Deregulated signaling pathways are a hallmark feature of oncogenesis and driver of tumor progression. Dual specificity protein phosphatase 4 (DUSP4) is a critical negative regulator of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway and is often ...

Haspin Modulates the G2/M Transition Delay in Response to Polarization Failures in Budding Yeast
Symmetry breaking by cellular polarization is an exquisite requirement for the cell-cycle of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells, as it allows bud emergence and growth.

The bacterial cell cycle checkpoint protein Obg and its role in programmed cell death
The phenomenon of programmed cell death (PCD), in which cells initiate their own demise, is not restricted to multicellular organisms. Unicellular organisms, both eukaryotes and prokaryotes, also possess pathways that mediate PCD.

Vaccinia Virus Arrests and Shifts the Cell Cycle
Modulation of the host cell cycle is a common strategy used by viruses to create a pro-replicative environment. To facilitate viral genome replication, vaccinia virus (VACV) has been reported to alter cell cycle regulation and trigger the host cell DNA ...

Cell cycle checkpoint control [PDF]
Genetic instability is considered to be a major driving force of malignancy of cancer cells, and at least some of cancer-associated genetic instability is known to be caused by defects in the cell cycle checkpoint control. Patients of the cancer-prone genetic disorder ataxia telangiectagia frequently develop malignant lymphoma and their cells are ...

Modeling Dual Pathways for the Metazoan Spindle Assembly Checkpoint [PDF]
Using computational modelling, we investigate mechanisms of signal transduction focusing on the spindle assembly checkpoint where a single unattached kinetochore is able to signal to prevent cell cycle progression. This inhibitory signal switches off rapidly once spindle microtubules have attached to all kinetochores.

A hybrid mammalian cell cycle model [PDF]
Hybrid modeling provides an effective solution to cope with multiple time scales dynamics in systems biology. Among the applications of this method, one of the most important is the cell cycle regulation. The machinery of the cell cycle, leading to cell division and proliferation, combines slow growth, spatio-temporal re-organisation of the cell, and ...
