The effect of FdUrd, zeocin, caffeine and their combination on the cell cycle of green algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Scenedesmus quadricauda and response of these model organisms to DNA damage were studied. Both, FdUrd and zeocin, caused DNA damage that led to cell cycle arrest in these algae. In contrast, caffeine partially abolished G2 phase block imposed by zeocin. Protein levels of three crucial cell cycle regulators - CdkA, CdkB and Wee1 kinases were measured to identify mechanisms controlling reaction to DNA damage.
