Does dna sythesis occur during interphase or mitosis

Yes, for eukaryotes which have a nucleus and therefore have to do nuclear division (mitosis), DNA replication occurs during a specific period of interphase. Protein synthesis, which includes transcription and translation, occurs throughout interphase. But neither replication nor protein synthesis occur during M-phase.
