Chk1 kinase is activated by phosphorylation at serine-345 by Rad3 checkpoint kinase and is required for DNA damage checkpoint in late S and G2 phase of S. pombe cell cycle. We studied the ability of two chk1 mutants, chk1-1 and chk1-2, to undergo phosphorylation and to delay cell cycle progression in response to different types of DNA lesions.
