CELLULAR EVENTS in the Go/G1 phase of the cell cycle regulate the rate of cellular proliferation. Traverse of density-arrested mouse embryo fibroblasts through Go/G1 is mediated by multiple serum-derived polypeptide growth factors with sequential or interdependent actions. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and other known competence factors (26) initiate a proliferative response in density-arrested BALB/c-3T3 cells. PDGF-treated cells are programmed to respond to progression activity or factors in platelet-poor plasma (PPP) that are required for Go/G1 traverse and entry into S phase. The competence-progression cell-cycle model provides a means for identifying cellular events required for and/or expressed as a function of initiation of cell growth, as well as those expressed during G1 traverse and entry into S phase. Several specific biochemical changes have been correlated with competence formation in density-arrested BALB/c-3T3 cells. In addition to specific cellular responses, several more general biosynthetic processes are required for cell-cycle traverse. Both and RNA SPECIFIC synthesis are necessary for competence formation and traverse of the first 6 h of G1, whereas only synthesis is necessary for the last 6 h of G, (29). There is also evidence to suggest that is required for cell-cycle traverse. Tunicamycin, an inhibitor of N-linked , has
