Blocking CHK1 Expression Induces Apoptosis and Abrogates the G2 Checkpoint Mechanism
Checkpoint kinase 1 (Chki) is a checkpoint gene that is activated after DNA damage. It phosphorylates and inactivates the Cdc2 activating phosphatase Cdc25C. This in turn inactivates Cdc2, which leads to G2/M arrest. We report that blocking Chki expression by antisense or ribozymes in mammalian cell...
