Mus81-Mms4 is not required to resume replication after an HU block. (A) MUS81+ (W303-1a strain) and mus81Δ (YMV39 strain) cells were blocked in G1, released into medium with 0.2 M HU for 90 min and then allowed to progress through the cell cycle in medium without the drug. Samples were taken at the indicated time points and the DNA content was analysed by flow cytometry. (B) Cell viability after HU treatment. (C) Immunoblot analysis of Rad53 (upper panel) and in situ kinase assay for Rad53 (bottom panel). (D) PFGE analysis. The cells were blocked in G1, released into medium containing 0.2 M HU for 90 min and then released from the HU block in medium with nocodazole. Cell cycle progression was monitored by flow cytometry (upper panel). The ethidium-bromide–stained pulse-field gel is shown at the bottom. Chromosomes are labelled with Roman numerals.
