摘要: To protect genome integrity and ensure survival, eukaryotic cells exposed to genotoxic stress cease proliferating provide time for DNA repair. Human responded ultraviolet light or ionizing radiation by rapid, ubiquitin- proteasome-dependent protein degradation of Cdc25A, a phosphatase that is required progression from G1 S phase the cell cycle. This response involved activated Chk1 kinase but not p53 pathway, persisting inhibitory tyrosine phosphorylation Cdk2 blocked entry into replication. Overexpression Cdc25A bypassed this mechanism, leading enhanced damage decreased survival. These results identify specific as part checkpoint mechanism suggest how overexpression in human cancers might contribute tumorigenesis.
