Altered G1 signaling order and commitment point in cells proliferating without CDK4/6 activity

How normal cells proliferate without CDK4 and CDK6, two cancer-driving kinases, remains unclear. Here, the authors show that without CDK4/6 activity, cells start the cell cycle with a different signaling order and commitment point, revealing unexpected flexibility in cell-cycle entry mechanisms.
