Cards

Term
MPF
Definition
- Mitosis promoting factor- mitosis onset, breaks down lamin by phosphorylating serine residues,
Activates condensin, phosphorylates myosin inhibitory site, beaks down mytotic cyclin/CDKs
-made up of 2 subunits, regulatory and catalytic (cyclin/CDK)
Regulatory subunits mentioned- Cyclin B, cdc13
Catalytic subunits mentioned- cdc2, cdc28
Term
APC
Definition
Anaphase promoting factor- an E2 ubiquitin conjugating protein, degredation of mitotic cyclins,
Activation requires Cdh1 association
Term
Cdh1
Definition
– binds and activates APC when unphosphorylated, involved in mitotic cyclin degredation in late
Mitosis,
Term
Cdc14
Definition
dephosphorylates Cdh1allowing Cdh1 to bind ACP activating APC/Cdh1 the complex
Term
Wee1
Definition
Phosphorylates inhibitory site (Y15) if cdc2, excess results in long cells
Term
CAK
Definition
phosphorylates regulatory site of cdc2
Term
Cdc25
Definition
dephosphorylates regulatory site of cdc2 (T161), excess results in small cells
Term
Condensin
Definition
Chromosome condensation
Term
Cdc28
Definition
catalytic cyclin/CDK
Term
SPF
Definition
regulatory cyclin/Cdk binds cdc28, initiate S phase, Sic 1 can bind and
Term
Sic 1
Definition
inhibitor of S phase initiation
Term
SCF
Definition
E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzyme degrades Sic1, promotes progression to S phase, regulates CIPS
Term
Cdc34
Definition
same as SCF
Term
E2F
Definition
stimulates transcription of DNA replication genes, as well as more E2F
Term
RB
Definition
tumor suppressor- inhibits E2F, phosphorylation by cyclinD/CDK4 causes disassociation from E2F
Term
CIPs
Definition
- tumore supressors, p21, p27, p57, cyclin/CDK inhibitors- p21 inhibits all cyclin/CDKs
Term
p53
Definition
- tumor suppressor- G1 and G2 arrest, stabilized by DNA damage via ATM/R activates p21,
proapoptotic
Term
p16
Definition
tumor suppressor inhibits cyclinD/CDK4, leads to no phosphorylation of Rb
