AB  - Problem statement: The scientific community is in need of more rigorous understanding of the mechanism of initiation of mitosis. The complete understanding of the initiation sequence may allow knowledge of the normal and disease states, including cancer. This understanding and knowledge would open the way for developing curative treatment of cancer. This article proposes a mechanism of initiation of mitosis based on preservation of maternal DNA and presents evidence in its support. Conclusion: This will be compared to the governing biology of the stem cell compartment. The implications for understanding and treatment of cancer will be described.
