Mutational analysis of checkpoints demonstrates that cell cycle checkpoints are essential for maintaining division fidelity in higher eukaryotes. Disruption of mammalian cell cycle checkpoints often leads to tumorigenesis. Checkpoint genes, such as p53, maintain fidelity of large populations of cells by either inducing an arrest and repair response or an apoptotic elimination response. Little is known about the environmental and genetic factors influencing which alternative is chosen. In addition, the relationship between these two responses has not been determined.
For example, it is not known whether the cell cycle arrest and apoptotic pathways are independent processes or whether they represent branchpoints of a common pathway. Given the role of cell cycle checkpoints in maintaining division fidelity in mammals, it will be important to identify those checkpoint genes that are functionally as well as structurally conserved as these are likely to be involved in core aspects of the checkpoint process. Analysis of these conserved checkpoint components in model genetic organisms will provide the most direct insight into their role in mammals.
