The transcription factors FOXC1, FOXQ1, and FOXF2 (FOX cluster on chromosome 6) are members of the forkhead family that play a role in a plethora of biological processes during development and tumorigenesis. Emerging studies in the last decade have suggested a role of the FOX cluster in breast...

To ensure faithful cell division, entry into mitosis must be inhibited in cells with damage or under-replicated DNA. Wee1 and Myt1 are two partially redundant kinases that inhibit mitotic entry through the phosphorylation of the Cdk1/cyclin B complex. Cdk1 is an essential mitotic kinase that...

Docherty, K., Chang, J.P., Blázquez, M., Trudeau, V.L., Bosma, P.T.
An RNA-arbitrarily primed PCR differential display strategy was used to identify candidate genes in the pituitary that are up-regulated by endogenously activated g-aminobutyric acid (GABA) systems that may also be involved in the control of reproduction. Goldfish were injected with the GABA...
