1
New cards
When Rb is bound to E2F
production of proteins necessary for the G1 /S transition is blocked.
2
New cards
Retinoblastoma protein (Rb), p53, and p21are
negative regulatory molecules
3
New cards
As a cell is exposed to more stress,
higher levels of p53 and p21 accumulate, making it less likely that the cell will move into the S phase.
4
New cards
In the active, dephosphorylated state, Rb binds to
proteins called transcription factors, most commonly, E2F.
5
New cards
Rb exerts its regulatory influence on
other positive regulator proteins.
6
New cards
If damaged DNA is detected, p53
halts the cell cycle and recruits enzymes to repair the DNA.
7
New cards
Cyclins regulate the cell cycle only when
they are tightly bound to Cdks.
8
New cards
Regulator molecules may act
individually, or they can influence the activity or production of other regulatory proteins.
9
New cards
Transcription factors
________:"turn on "specific genes, allowing the production of proteins encoded by that gene.
10
New cards
As the cell increases in size
Rb is slowly phosphorylated until it becomes inactivated.
11
New cards
If the DNA can't be repaired
p53 can trigger apoptosis, or cell death, to prevent the duplication of damaged chromosomes.
12
New cards
P21
________ enforces the halt in the cycle dictated by p53 by binding to and inhibiting the activity of the Cdk /cyclin complexes.
13
New cards
Retinoblastoma proteins
a group of tumor-suppressor proteins common in many cells
14
New cards
Transcription factors
"turn on" specific genes, allowing the production of proteins encoded by that gene
15
New cards
Regulatory molecules either
promote progress of the cell to the next phase (positive regulation) or halt the cycle (negative regulation)
16
New cards
What two groups of proteins are responsible for the progress of the cell through the various checkpoints?
cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks),
17
New cards
Increases in the concentration of cyclin proteins are triggered by
both external and internal signals.
