Mitosis, G1, (G0), S, G2, back to mitosis
What is included in interphase
G1, G0, S, and G2
What is the roll of growth factors
to promote protein synthesis
What is the purpose of cyclins
To attach to CDK’s so they can activate
what is the purpose of CDK’s
to release phosphate to other proteins to either stimulate or inhibit their function
What is p53
an inhibitory protein
What is a proto-oncogene
stimulatory gene
what is an oncogene
a tumor suppressor gene
what does a tumor suppressor gene do
stops the cell from completing the cycle
why does an oncogene (TSG) need both alleles to be mutated for the change to have affect
the oncogene mutated alleles are recessive
are the proto-oncogene alleles dominant?
yes
