The Role of Chk2 and Wee1 Protein Kinases during the Early Embryonic Development of Xenopus laevis
In somatic cells, when DNA is damaged or incompletely replicated, checkpoint pathways arrest the cell cycle prior to M or S phases by inhibiting cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks). In Xenopus laevis, embryonic cellular divisions (2-12) consist of rapid cleavage cycles in which gap phases, checkpoint e...
