Q

The cell cycle

A

It has major cell cycle check points, it’s regulated by cyclin and CDK’s, there is different levels of cyclin at different cell stages, and it can be paused by the action of p53.

Q

cell cyclin check points

A

Act as a brake in cell division if something isn’t right, provides a check to see if the steps of cell division were followed, can involve the protein P53.

Q

How would the loss of P53 activity affect a cell?

A

The G1/S checkpoint would not be functional, DNA damage could accumulate and CDK activity would not be appropriately regulated.
