Term Name: cell cycle checkpoint signaling
Synonyms: cell cycle checkpoint, G1/S checkpoint, G1/S transition checkpoint, G2/M checkpoint, G2/M transition checkpoint, signal transduction involved in cell cycle checkpoint, signal transduction involved in G2/M transition checkpoint
Definition: A signaling process that controls cell cycle progression by monitoring the integrity of specific cell cycle events. A cell cycle checkpoint begins with detection of deficiencies or defects and ends with signal transduction.
