U2OS cells lacking Chk1 undergo aberrant mitosis and fail to activate the spindle checkpoint
Chk1 is a conserved protein kinase originally identified in fission yeast, required to delay entry of cells with damaged or unreplicated DNA into mitosis. The requirement of Chk1 for both S and G2/M checkpoints has been elucidated while only few studies have connected Chk1 to the mitotic spindle che...
