what is the primary determinant of the CDK activity? ***
|
cyclins (concentration of protein)
|
|
cyclin activity can be ____
|
fine-tuned (other proteins affect its activity)
|
|
these can both inhibit and activate
|
kinases and phosphatases
|
|
inhibitor proteins can also prevent the ____
|
activation
|
|
proteolysis can ____ and also act as a _____
|
fine-tune and act as a checkpoint
|
|
(what) targeted for destruction because
|
we are adding on this globular multiubiquitin chain
|
|
what do s-phase cyclin-cdk complexes (s-cdks) do?
|
they initiate DNA replication once per cycle
|
|
a cell in s-phase and another cell in g1 phase combine and what happens?
|
the materials in s-phase were able to push g1 into s-phase which means both now are duplicating DNA
|
|
what does s with g2 tell us?
|
it is not enough to drive backwards (this tells us that there are block controls in place) g2-phase nucleus stays in g2, s-phase nucleus continues DNA replication
|
|
what are blocks?
|
they are objects that do not allow for backward movements
|
|
g1 and g2 combined do not allow
|
jumping forward
this tells us that this is a linear pathway or punctuated continuum that cannot skip a step as the S is in this example |
|
s-cdk phosphorylates proteins at ______ which initiates _____
|
at DNA replication origin initiating DNA synthesis through a mechanism that ensure that the DNA is duplicated only once per cycle
|
|
s-cdk triggers
|
s-phase
|
|
why cant you skip from g1 to g2
|
because without s-cdk you cannot move forward
s-cdk triggers s-phase |
|
accessory proteins must be used to bind to complex and then ____
|
accessory proteins (Cdc6) and then recruits a series of proteins (Mcm) which has now primed this whole structure
|
|
in addition to s-cdk, there is m-cdk that also ___
|
phosphorylates which prevents it from moving backwards
|
|
m-cdk also helps ensure ____
|
re-replication does not occur by phosphorylating Cdc6 and Mcm (also g1/s-cdks help with export)
|
|
at the end of mitosis, all cdk activity in the cell is ____
|
reduced to zero
|
|
at the end of m, dephosphorylate of
|
cdc6 and mcm proteins
|
|
at the end of m allows pre-rc assembly to
|
occur once again at g1/s transition
|
|
at the end of M, you need to re-stock up but also need a
|
phosphate
|
|
____ both prevent going backwards by getting ride of ___ and cannot ___ until it receives a signal to do so
|
degrading and phosphorylating both prevent going backwards by getting rid of everything it uses, and cannot re-stock until receives a signal to do so
-cannot duplicate DNA with separation -makes sure everything goes back to zero, in part because of degradation |
|
activation of m-phase cyclin-cdk complexes (m-cdks) triggers
|
entry into mitosis
|
|
m-cdk activation leads to events of early mitosis, whereby
|
cell assembles a mitotic spindle

|
active m-cdk has negative feedback on
|
cdk-inhibitory kinase?
|
|
cdc25+P ____
|
cleaves off inhibitory phosphate and now active m-cdk which is able to inhibit its cdk-inhibitory kinase and activates phosphatase cdc25
|
|
proteolysis triggers
|
chromatid separation
|
|
apc acts with another protein to cause
|
ubiquitylation and proteolysis of m-cyclin which drives the cell irreversibly "forward" in cell cycle
|
|
exit from mitosis requires eventual ___
|
inactivation of M-cdk
|
|
inactivation occurs mainly by
|
ubiquitin proteolysis of M-cyclins
|
|
thus activation of ____ leads not only to anaphase, but also _____
|
activation of cdc20-APC complex leads to m-cdk inactivation
|
|
m-cdk inactivation in turn leads to
|
all of the other events that take the cell out of mitosis
|
|
APC stands for and is held in inactive position until
|
anaphase promoting complex is held in inactive position until activated by cdc20 and m-cdk
|
|
when APC is activated, it can
|
degrade securin
|
|
why do we keep everything in the off position?
|
so it is appropriate to clip (cleave)
|
|
cleaving by ___ promotes ___
|
cleaving by separase promotes anaphase
|

yes you are properly boudn, otherwise you will not get cleavage
