L1 Cell Cycle Flashcards
What causes cells to proliferate
extrinsic factors
Wha† can extracellular signals induce
post-mitotic, differentiated state, no proliferation
Which state of cell cycle is quiescence
G0
Is G0 reversible
yes
Proliferation
cell cycle growth and division
Quiescence
non-proliferative state imposed on cell
What drives the cell cycle
cyclins fluctuation
What is the function of cyclin/Cdk complex
activate or repress target genes
What is highly conserved throughout evolution?
Cyclins/cdks
What cyclin is associated with G1
Cyclin D & E
What cyclin is associated with S phase
Cyclin A
What cyclin is associated with M phase (mitosis)
Cyclin B
What cdk forms a complex with cyclin D
cdk4 and cdk6
What cdk forms a complex with cyclin E
cdk2
What cdk forms a complex with cyclin A
cdk2 and cdk1
What cdk forms a complex with cyclin B
cdk1
What is the cyclin equivalent in yeast
cln or clb
What are the two major control factors of the cell cycle?
different cyclins, checkpoints
Affect of DNA damage on cell cycle
causes cell cycle arrest
Describe cyclin E levels
low through G1, rapid increase after R point
