2. Define Cell Cycle
Cell reproduces by performing orderly sequence of
events in which it duplicates its contents and then
divides in two. This type of duplication and division is
called Cell Cycle.
3. Major Questions
To explain how cells reproduce, we therefore have to
consider three major questions:
(1) How do cells duplicate their contents?
(2) How do they partition the duplicated contents and
split in two?
(3) How do they coordinate/regulate all the machinery
that is required for these two processes?
4. 1- How do cells duplicate their contents?
Five Phases of the Cell CycleFive Phases of the Cell Cycle
1-1- GG11 - primary growth phase- primary growth phase
2- S – synthesis; DNA replicated2- S – synthesis; DNA replicated
3- G3- G22 - secondary growth phase- secondary growth phase
4- M – mitosis4- M – mitosis
5- C - cytokinesis5- C - cytokinesis
M-phase
Interphase
6. Interphase
During all of interphase, a cell generally continues to
transcribe genes,
synthesize proteins, and grow in mass.
Together, G1 and G2 phases provide additional time
for the cell to grow and duplicate its cytoplasmic
organelles
if interphase lasted only long enough for DNA
replication, the cell would not have time to double its
mass before it divided and would consequently shrink
with each division.
7. In some animal embryos, for example, the first
cell divisions after fertilization (called cleavage
divisions) serve to subdivide a giant egg cell into
many smaller cells as quickly as possible.
In these embryonic cell cycles, the G1 and G2
phases are drastically shortened, and the cells do
not grow before they divide.
8. Timelines for Cell Cycle Phases
G1-phase 10-12 hours
S- phase 8-10 hours
G-2 phase 4-6 hour
M-Phase 1-2 hours
Total 24 hour
This time calculation and frequency is true for majority
of cells. Cell cycle can be very short as in embryonic
cells.
9. Frequency of cell division
Frequency of cell division varies by cell type
1- embryo
cell cycle < 30 minute
2- skin cells
divide frequently throughout life
12-24 hours cycle
3- liver cells
retain ability to divide, but keep it in reserve
divide once every year or two
4- mature nerve cells
do not divide at all after maturity
permanently in G0

20. G1
G1 checkpoint
G1
G0
If a cell receives a go-ahead
signal at the G1 checkpoint,
the cell continues on in the
cell cycle.
If a cell does not receive a
go-ahead signal at the G1
checkpoint, the cell exits the
cell cycle and goes into G0, a
nondividing state.
21. Question -3
How do they coordinate/regulate all the machinery that
is required for these two processes?
22. How is progress through
cell cycle regulated?
“Cell-cycle control system”
The ‘Checkpoint’ model
How are they controlled?
-- intracellular and extracellular signals
What are the effectors
-- lots of kinases & phosphatases
23. How is cell division and
growth regulated?
Growth factors
-- stimulate cell growth
Mitogens
-- trigger cell division
-- e.g., EGF, phytoestrogens
Survival signals
-- disable apoptotic mechanisms
24. What did study of frog embryos reveal about the control
system?
Be sure to read
How we know
Frog egg cytoplasmic
transfer experiments
Something in the cytosol
triggers mitosis
-- called MPF
Activity of MPF oscillates
during the cell cycle
What is MPF?
25. What do we know about
MPF & cyclin?
MPF is a cyclin bound to a Cdk
‘cyclin-dependent protein kinase’
= M-Cdk
Several Cyclins and Cdks
-- regulate different cell cycle events
Table 18–2 The Major Cyclins and Cdks
of Vertebrates
Cyclin–Cdk Complex Cyclin Cdk partner
G1-Cdk cyclin D Cdk4, Cdk6
G1/S-Cdk cyclin E Cdk2
S-Cdk cyclin A Cdk2
M-Cdk cyclin B Cdk1
26. How is cyclin-CDK
activity regulated?
Two processes
1. Synthesis &
destruction of cyclin
-- ubiquination
-- proteasomes
2. Inactivation & activation
-- Activating/inhibitory
Kinases/phosphatase
-- Pos feedback rapid activation
27. How do cyclin-cdk’s trigger
cellular events?
S-Cdk triggers DNA replication
-- activates replication origins
-- blocks reactivation
What does activated M-CDK do?
1) Phosphorylates H1 histone
(triggering C’some condensation)
2) Disassembly of nuclear lamina
3) Changes behavior of microtubules
-- phosphorylates MAPs
28. How is cyclin-Cdk coupled
to checkpoint control?
Tumor suppressor genes
-- inactivation can dispose cell
toward tumor formation
-- P53, P21 and Rb are all TSGs
-- loss of both alleles necessary
Why?
P53 can also trigger apoptosis
