Timing of DNA damage checkpoint adaptation predicts post-mitotic proliferative competence
Persistent DNA damage creates a conflict between checkpoint-enforced arrest and continued proliferation. Although adaptation enables cells to escape this arrest, checkpoint bypass does not ensure renewed proliferation. Here, we show that the duration of checkpoint-associated metaphase arrest predicts proliferative re-entry after telomere dysfunction in budding yeast. Using population-level…
