UV radiation delays mitosis and dephosphorylation of cyclin dependant kinase 2 in sea urchin embryos
ADAMS, N.L.*; FOLTZ, K.R.: UV radiation delays mitosis and dephosphorylation of cyclin dependant kinase 2 in sea urchin embryos Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) causes dosage-dependent delays in cell division. Multiple molecular targets of UVR have been investigated in mammalian somatic cells, but they have not been identified conclusively in embryonic cells. Our main objective has been […]
