22
Q

what is cyclin for M-CDK

A

cyclin B or cyclin M

23
Q

what does cyclin B/M do

A

controls M-CDK activity

24
Q

what is checkpoint for metaphase to anaphase pathway

A

are chromosomes successfully attached to mitotic spindle

25
Q

what happens if not attached

A

protein complex inhibited, chromosomes CANNOT segregate

26
Q

what happens if not inhibited

A

M-CDK activity is controlled, cells progress further into cell cycle

27
Q

what needs to happen to cyclin to go from metaphase to anaphase

A

M-cyclin needs to be degraded, turn off M-CDK activity

28
Q

describe mechanism for degradation of M-cyclin

A

chromosomes attached to spindle –> activates cdc20 –> binds to APC –> APC/cdc20 complex –> ubiquitilates M-cyclin and adds polyubiquitin chain, targets it for degradation by proteasome

29
Q

prophase

A

2 centrosomes (have duplicated), DNA condensed into chromosomes, nuclear envelope intact (chromosomes r in it)

30
Q

prometaphase

A

breakdown of nuclear envelope, chromosomes free to swirl around, centrosomes at opposite ends of cells, kinetochore

31
Q

metaphase

A

chromosomes attached to mitotic spindle at center

32
Q

anaphase

A

chromosomes separating, moved to opposite poles of cell

33
Q

telophase

A

right before cytokinesis; 2 centrioles in opposite poles, 2 nuclear envelopes reform

34
Q

cytokinesis

A

nuclear envelope fully formed, chromosomes decondense, actively being split

35
Q

what happens to trigger anaphase

A

as long as chromosomes attached (even if 3 instead of 2)

36
Q

mitotic spindle

A

built out of microtubules; radiate out of centrosome

37
Q

3 types of MTs

A

kinetochore microtubules, non-kinetochore microtubules, astral microtubules

38
Q

kinetochore microtubules

A

extend toward midpoint of cells (From ends), chromosomes attach here to satifsy metaphase to anaphase checkpoint

39
Q

non-kinetochore

A

extend toward midpoint, but smaller chunks; help position mitotic spindle

40
Q

astral microtubules

A

radiate away from midpoint; other drxn, at ends; help hold mitotic spindle in orientation

41
Q

individual motor proteins

A

kinesins 4&10, kinesin 5, dynein

42
Q

kinesins 4/10

A

walk chromosomes to midpoint, plus ends of kinetochore microtubules (get chromosomes to right spot)

43
Q

kinesin 5

A

4 motor domains, walks along 2 MTs; pushes apart poles by walking to plus ends (both are in opposite drxns)

44
Q

inhibit kinesin 5?

A

poles would come closer together

45
Q

kinesin 14

A

one set of motor domains, other binds to MT and carriers it as cargo; walks to minus end –> pulls poles closer together

46
Q

dynein

A

one part binds plasma membrane, walks toward minus end; pulls centrosome to plasma membrane to keep it anchored (astral MTs)

47
Q

what balances forces

A

dynein, kinesin 5, 14

48
Q

when is the idea of balancing dynamic forces needed

A

metaphase to anaphase transition; not needed after cuz mitotic spindle not needed

49
Q

how are chromosomes attached to kinetochores

A

plus ends bind perpendicular

50
Q

what is only stable kinetochore conformation

A

one side bound to one chromosome, other side bound to other chromosome

51
Q

cdc20 separase pathway

A

apc/cdc20 complex, ubiquitinates securin & destroys it, activates separase( Protease) that targets cohesins, degrades it, separating daughter chromosomes

52
Q

what happens when chromosomes are not attachedq

A

MAD20 is active

53
Q

what does MAD20 do

A

inhibits cdc20
