Revised Manuscript Received September 18, 1990 (yell division is a fundamental biological process that begins with the fertilized egg and continues throughout an organism’s life span until individual cells terminally differentiate or die. The most simplified cell cycle, characterized in nature by the rapid early embryonic cell divisions, consists of a round of DNA replication followed by the splitting of the cell and its duplicated genetic material into two daughter cells, each identical with the parent. Mitosis is defined as the series of steps that result in the formation of two new nuclei, each having the same number of chromosomes as the parental nucleus. Following mitosis, the cytoplasm is partitioned around the two nuclei giving rise to the two daughter cells. During the cell cycle of most somatic cells, DNA synthesis (S-phase) and mitosis (M-phase) are separated by two “growth” stages (Gt and G2) of varying duration. Thus, a typical eukaryotic cell passes through G,, S, G2, and M and back into G, during a single cycle (Figure 1). The early embryonic cell cycle, with G) and G2 phases that are virtually nonexistent, has recently become the system of choice for studying the biochemistry of mitosis [see Cross et al.(1989) for a review]. In this paper, we will review the current ideas of how entryinto mitosis is controlled in eukaryotic cells, paying particular attention to the roles for protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation in this process.[For reviews on G, and S-phase control of the cell cycle, see Pardee (1989) and Laskey et al.(1989).]
