Cell Cycle Flashcards
G1
growth phase before DNA synthesis
G2
second growth period that’s before cell division
M phase
cell division
G1/S checkpoint
start or restriction point. cell tells if conditions are faborable for division
G2/M chekcpoint
make sure all DNA has been replicated and the environment is still favorable for division
metaphase/anaphase transition point
all chromosomes are evalutated to ensure that they are attached to mitotic spindle
DNA damage checkpoint
functions throughout the cell cycle, detects damage ti DBA
CDKs
enzymes that help progress through the cell cycle
M phase Cyclin/CDK complexs
Cyclin A/CDK1
Cyclin B/CDK1
Mid G1 cyclin/CDK complexes
cyclin D/CDK4
Cyclin D/ CDK6
late G1 cyclin.CDK complexes
Cyclin E/CDK2
S cylin CDK compelx
cyclin A/CDK2
how are cyclins degraded
ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis
how is cyclin B ubiquinited
anaphase promoting complex
mitogenic signals
tissue-specific growth factors
required to stimulate cell growth and dvision
what phase are most differentiated cell in
G0
in general what do interactions between cell and ECM do
promote cell division
in general what do interactions between neighboring cells do
inhibit cell division
contract inhibition
two neighboring cells contact each other and inhibit cell dibision
early-response genes
genes transcribed within a few minutes of addition of gorwth factor to a cell in G0
what is a key player amoung the early-response genes
transcription factor c-FOs
function of c-fos
stimulate transcripition of delayed response genes
what do the recceptors for gorwth facotors contain
intrinsic tyrosine kinase activitry
what does ligand binding to receptors for growth factors tirgger
recpetor dimerixation, autophosphorylation of tyrosine residues within the recpetor
how do most growth factors stimulate transcription of the gene encording c-fos
MAP kinase cascade
how does MAP kinase cascade start
GRB2 binds to phosphotyrosine residues within the activated receptor.
what happesn after GRB2 bindws
binds to SOs, brining it into the cell membrane
what happens when Sos is in the cell membrane
activates Ras
