The key role of checkpoint proteins is to detect DNA damage and send a signal to delay cell cycle advance until the damaged chromosomes are repaired (Figure 1).
Specific cell cycle checkpoints interrupt or slow down the cell cycle in response to DNA damage during interphase, replication stress during the S phase, or ...
Cell cycle checkpoints ... A checkpoint is a stage in the eukaryotic cell cycle at which the cell examines internal and external cues and decides whether or not ...
