Interphase and Regulation of Cell Cycle by CDKs and Cyclin

The video tutorial covers the process of mitosis, explaining how cells divide and replicate their DNA to form identical cells. It introduces apoptosis, a mechanism for programmed cell death, to prevent mutations. The video details the phases of interphase in the cell cycle, emphasizing the importance of nutrient intake and biosynthesis for cell growth. It also discusses the regulation of mitosis entry through cyclin-dependent kinases and cyclins, highlighting the role of checkpoints in preventing DNA mutations.
