Q

G1 - S phase what cyclin

A

cyclin E CDK 2 complex

42

48
Q

at the end of m phase there are what regarding cyclins

A

ubiquitin ligase complex that will degrase any remaining cyclins

49
Q

APC/C complex is part of what complex

A

ubiquitin ligase complex responsible of degradation of cyclins

50

Q

major cyclin complex involved in G1

A

Cyclin D-CDK4
Cyclin D-CDK6
major one is 4

52
Q

once cyclin D-CDK 4

A

phosphorylation of Rb - release E2F which then transcribes cyclin E

53
Q

Cyclin E expression you are past

A

restriction point

54
Q

G1 into S what is the cyclin complex

A

Cyclin E - CDK2 complex

55
Q

CDK2 complex phorphorylates

A

proteins that push it into S phase

56
Q

When cell is in S phase what cyclin complex

A

Cyclin A-CDK2

57
Q

major mitotic cyclin

A

Cyclin B-CDK1

also Cyclin A-CDK1

58
Q

Cyclin B-CDK1 is also called

A

M cyclin-cdk complex or MPF

59
Q

MPF stands for

A

maturation promoting factor

think of it as mitosis promoting factor

60
Q

Draw out external signal to MYC RAS pathway

A

pg 20

RAS - RAF- MEK (look up and draw this out!)

61
Q

what is function of normal Rb

A

inhibits E2F

62
Q

what happens in retinoblastoma

A

No Rb so nothing inhibiting E2F - constantly stimulating proliferation

63
Q

if there’s DNA damage p53 will

A

accumulate

64
Q

p53 is a

A

TF

65
Q

when p53 accumulates it transcribes

A

66
Q

E2F TF transcribes

A

DNA polymerase

Cyclin E

67
Q

what happens in cells to speed up

A

feedback regulation

68
Q

E2F starts to transcribe Cyclin E which activates cdk2, this complex can also phosphorylate

A
