Animations and Interactive Tutorials
Produced by Dr. Donald F. Slish
The Big Picture This animation shows the molecular mechanisms of the control of cell division by tyrosine kinases and the inhibition of this by p53, when there is slight DNA damage. It also shows the induction of apoptosis when there is severe DNA damage.
