1
New cards

G0

Quiescence

Reversible resting state where cell not dividing but able to reenter cell cycle

2
New cards

Senescence

Permanent exit from cell cycle

Metabolically active

Due to telomere shortening

3
New cards

Initiation of Cell Cycle - Process

Mitogens bind to receptor

Signal effector

Kinase cascade

Phosphorylation activate trans factor

Switch on cyclin genes

4
New cards

Mitogens

Extracellular factors that trigger cell division

5
New cards

Cyclin

Regulatory protein with no enzymatic activity

6
New cards

4 Cyclins

D - G1

E - G1/S

A - S/G2

B - M

7
New cards

Cyclin Dependent Kinase (CDK)

Enzyme that phosphorylate + control cell division/transcription

8
New cards

CDK - Process

Inactive

Bind to cyclin

Active

Bind to substrate

9
New cards

CDK Inhibitors

Bind + inhibit CDK & cyclin

10
New cards

Protooncogenes vs Oncogenes

Normal vs mutated

11
New cards

Protooncogenes vs Tumour Suppressor - Mutations

1 become constitutive vs 2 lose function

12
New cards

Protooncogenes - Products

Mitogen receptors

Cyclins

CDK

13
New cards

Tumour Suppressor - Products

CDK inhibitors

14
New cards

Wee1 - Kinase

Add phosphate

Inactivate CDK

15
New cards

Cdc25 - Phosphatase

Remove phosphate

Activate CDK

16
New cards

If cell fails checkpoint

Wee1 activated

CDK inactivated

17
New cards

Once problem solved

Cdc25 activated

CDK re activated
