title: Controlling cell cycle progress in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
abstract: The suitability of fission yeast as a model for understanding the eukaryotic cell cycle has been validated in five years of exciting developments. We review recent advances in understanding the nature of the controls that regulate progression through the cell cycle and the coordination of DNA replication and mitosis.
