Role of Chk1 and Chk2 in mitotic checkpoint control in vertebrate cells

Two conserved protein kinases, Chk1 and Chk2, are activated in response to genotoxic stress and mediate multiple cell cycle checkpoint mechanisms that ensure genomic integrity. The establishment of mitotic checkpoint delay in response to DNA damage or incompletely replicated DNA is conventionally th...
