Abstract:
During metazoan development cells destined for different fates become asymmetric, not just in morphology and developmental potential but also in cell-cycle timing. A recent study has now shown that differential cell-cycle timing in the first cell divisions of the Caenorhabditis elegans embryo is in part controlled by a DNA replication checkpoint.
