摘要
Tobacco BY-2 cells have become. a major tool in plant cell biological research, in part due to the availability of a cell cycle synchronization protocol. This method, pioneered by Nagata and coworkers, involves sequential treatments with aphidicolin (a DNA synthesis inhibitor) and propyzamide (a microtubule inhibitor which arrests mitosis). The effects of these inhibitors are reversible, allowing the cell culture to progress into M phase synchronously. However, attempts to reproduce high levels of synchrony with published protocols have not been uniformly successful. This paper describes critical parameters for cell cycle synchronization and documents the kinetics and variation typically found in using this protocol.
