Epithelium: Cell Cycle Flashcards

1
Q

what is occuring at G1 cyclin wise

A

g1: Cdk6 and Cdk4 activated by cyclin D
activation of Cdk4 leads to the phosphorylation of Rb and to the release of TFs which activate cyclin A and E (early)

Cyclin E activates Cdk2 which gets G1 thru checkpoint into S

Q

How many genes have to be affected for RB tumors to occur?

two

same as with williams tumor (WT-1) KIDNEY

Q

how many subunits does p53 have? and how does it react to mutation?

A

four subunits
one mutation of a subunit kinda affects the others
(mild to strong reaction) vs RB which is all or nothing

Q

when does the nuclear lamina diassemble

at the end of prophase with the diassembly of the nuclear envelope

16
Q

Describe the nuclear lamina at prophase

A

at prophase PKC and cyclin A(activates Ck1)

phosphorylates lamins leads to disassembly of nuclear lamina

17
Q

describe the nuclear lamina at anaphase

A

nucleoporins+lamina association polypetide 2beta+lamina B receptor+emerin

18
Q

nuclear lamina at telophase

A

attach tot he surface of the chromosomes +cisternae (ER) recruited by nuclear porins then rebuild

final step is the desphosphorylation of laminB my protein phosphatase !

19
Q

Describe what happens during prophase

A
centrosomes separate
mitotic spindle starts
sister chromatids together (cohesin)
chromatin packed (codensin)
nucleolus disappears
20
Q

describe what happens during prometaphase

A

nuclear envelope completly diassembled

chromosomes form kinetochores at centromere

21
Q

metaphase

A

microtubules attach to chromosomes
chromosomes align at plate
APC

22
Q

APC

A

anaphase promoting complex
diassembles when kinetcore microtubules attach to kenetochore
if they dont attach then APC stops mitotic cycle by delaying cyclin activity

23
Q

Anaphase

A
sister chromatids separate
TOPOISEMERASE-(kinetechore region) enzyme which frees entangled chromatin
a. kinetechore microtubules shorten
b/ polar microtubules lengthen
ANEUPLOIDY OCCURS HERE
24
Q

Telophase

A

nuclear envelop reforms
nuclear lamina reassemble
chromosome decondense becomes chromatin
nucleolus reappear

25
telomerase
protects length of telomere not in somatic cells has reverse transcriptase activity
26
telomere
maintain chromosome integrity (decreases in length with each cycle) ends of chromosomes (repeated nucleotide seq) TTAGGG
27
senescence
when telomeres shorten to a pt where chromosomes integrity cant be maintained
28
relationship of tumors and telomerase
tumor high levels of telomerase
29
Telemerase complex
telomerase reverse transcriptase + | template RNA + dyskerin (DKC1)
30
How does the telomerase complex get to telomere?
through the TCAB1 | reassemble at chromosome with pontin and reptin to help (ATPases)
31
Where is the telomerase complex made?
cajal bodies in the nucleus
32
issue with telomere
dyskeratosis congenita
33
When Mdm2 is inactivated what is the state of P53
activated ...leads to tumor suppression
