The G2 DNA damage checkpoint is one of the most important mechanisms controlling G2-mitosis transition. The kinase Greatwall (MASTL in human) promotes normal G2-mitosis transition by inhibiting PP2A via ARPP19 and ENSA. In this study, we demonstrate that MASTL is critical for maintaining genome integrity after DNA damage. Although MASTL did not affect the activation of DNA damage responses and subsequent repair, it determined the timing of entry into mitosis and the subsequent fate of the recove ...[more]
