A cell cycle population model based on the transition probability model of Smith and Martin (1973) has been extended to include product synthesis and export. The model handles two probable mechanisms. In the direct production model, the product is the protein. In the transcription model, the product
## Abstract Arrested __Saccharomyces cerevisiae__ cells initiate the cell cycle in an asynchronous mode. The asynchronous manner of cycle initiation generates variability in cellβcycle times of individual cells. Limiting concentrations of adenine, methionine or histidine regulate the rate of cycle
The kinetics of cell cycling are analyzed in terms of equations incorporating a DNA synthesis rate continuously varying along S phase and a portion of G1 phase through which the cells advance in a probabilistic fashion. These equations are solved analytically for several steady state as well as nons
