Factors that Control Mitotic Division in Eukaryotic Cells
A eukaryotic cell’s progression through the cell cycle is tightly controlled, and can be inhibited at various checkpoints. This scrollable interactive explains how a cell makes decisions at each checkpoint in the cell cycle, and how cyclin-CDK protein complexes regulate cell cycle progression.
