Question
Chapter 10.4, Problem 1SB
Summary Introduction
To review:
The inactivation of the Cdk (cyclin-dependent kinases) in the cell cycle.
Introduction:
The cell division cycle is highly regulated in organisms. There are several checkpoints that are present in each phase of the cycle, which ensure that the division and replication of the cell and the chromosomes are performed with accuracy. Cyclins and Cdks are the regulators of the cell cycle.
