Complementation of G1-phase variants of a mammalian cell cycle. 1979

P M Naha

Complementation between temperature-sensitive (ts) variants of Balb/c-3T3 defective in the G1 phase of its cell cycle was measured in the [3H]thymidine-labeling indices of the multinucleated cells during incubation at the restricted temperature (38 degrees C) following cell fusion. One ts variant from each group along the length of the G1 phase was tested for complementation. Varying degrees of complementation were observed between the 4 ts variants tested, judging by the time of entry into S-phase and the degree of synchrony attained. At least 3 complementation groups were discernible.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007399 Interphase The interval between two successive CELL DIVISIONS during which the CHROMOSOMES are not individually distinguishable. It is composed of the G phases (G1 PHASE; G0 PHASE; G2 PHASE) and S PHASE (when DNA replication occurs). Interphases
D008322 Mammals Warm-blooded vertebrate animals belonging to the class Mammalia, including all that possess hair and suckle their young. Mammalia,Mammal
D002453 Cell Cycle The complex series of phenomena, occurring between the end of one CELL DIVISION and the end of the next, by which cellular material is duplicated and then divided between two daughter cells. The cell cycle includes INTERPHASE, which includes G0 PHASE; G1 PHASE; S PHASE; and G2 PHASE, and CELL DIVISION PHASE.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
