Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The 5th cell cycle of mouse development was analyzed to determine the lengths of each cell cycle phase. The DNA content of Feulgen-stained blastomere nuclei was measured at various times throughout the cell cycle by microdensitometry. To achieve precise timing of the start of the 5th cell cycle, experiments utilized isolated 16-cell blastomeres and cell pairs obtained by in-vitro division of isolated 8-cell blastomeres. The following estimates were made for a mixed population of polar and apolar 16-cell blastomeres: G1, less than or equal to 2 h; S, 8-9 h; G2 + M, 2 h. No significant difference was found in the timing of DNA synthesis between polar and apolar cells or between cell pairs and whole embryos.
