DISCOVERY AND NAMING OF CYCLINS A protein (called “cyclin”) was observed to increase as cells approached mitosis, peak in mitosis and then precipitously disappear as cells exited mitosis.

Two proteins (cyclins A and B) increased as cells approached mitosis, peaked in mitosis and precipitously disappeared as cells exited mitosis.

The cell cycle is primarily regulated by cyclically activated protein kinases

Overview of major cyclins and Cdks of vertebrates and yeast

Eukaryotic cells have multiple cyclins that each control different segments of the Cell Cycle Cyclin D

2001 Nobel Laureates Dr. Hartwell and Dr. Nurse are Yeast Geneticist who studied cell division in S. cerevisiae (budding yeast, aka baker’s yeast) and S. pombe (fission yeast), respectively.

Cdk activity is regulated by inhibitory phosphorylation and inhibitory proteins Why is cell cycle progression governed primarily by inhibitory regulation?

Cell cycle control depends on cyclical proteolysis

UBIQUITIN-MEDIATED PROTEOLYSIS Deshaies RJ and Joazeiro CA. Annu Rev Biochem. 2009 E 1 (Ubiquitin activating enzyme) Binds to Ubiquitin in an ATP-dependent manner Passes Ubiquitin to E 2(Ubiquitin conjugating enzyme or UBC) At least 12 in yeast some are specific to a given target E 3 (ubiquitin protein ligase) Large complex in both clam (cyclosome) and in. PROTEOLYIS frog (APC UBIQUITIN-MEDIATED = anaphase promoting complex). Final transfer of ubiquitin to substrate can be mediated by E 2 alone or E 2 acting in concert with E 3 Proteosome (26 S complex) Structure from archaebacterium solved.

SCF Ubiquitin Ligases Components: F Box: adapter Brings substrate to E 3 ligase. F-box binds to Skp 1 Additional protein interaction domains (PID: WD repeat, leucine-rich repeat) binds to substrate E 2: UBIQ. Conjugating enzyme (transfers UB to substrate) Skp 1: Bridges F-box to cullin Cullin: Organizes and activates E 3 complex Recruits E 2 -UBIQ conjugating enzyme Ring finger protein Participates in E 2 binding and catalysis

Checkpoints What are they? How were they defined? How does their derailment contribute to cancer?

CHECKPOINTS IMPROPER SPINDLE ASSEMBLY M DNA DAMAGE UNREPLICATED DNA G 2 STOP! S G 1 DNA DAMAGE

Checkpoints: intracellular signaling pathways that determine if previous steps are complete before proceeding onto the next stage (complete DNA synthesis before entering mitosis; spindles must be assembled before exiting metaphase and entering into anaphase) and whethere has been any damage to the DNA damage checkpoint: integrity of DNA damage is repaired before entering S, completing S or entering M. DNA replication checkpoint: replication state of DNA Complete DNA synthesis before mitosis. Spindle assembly checkpoint: integrity of spindles must be assembled before exiting metaphase into anaphase.

Conclusions-1

Conclusions-2 1. The cell cycle is a coordinated and tightly organized process to ensure the successful replication of the cell. 2. Activity of CDK-Cyclins is determined by: 1. Synthesis of Cyclins. 2. Reversible phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of stimulatory and inhibitory sites on CDK. 3. Ubiquitin mediated degradation of Cyclins. 4. CDK inhibitors – INK 4 and CIP/KIP families. 3. Checkpoints can halt the cell cycle if all steps have not been properly completed. 4. Cancers have many alterations in cell cycle proteins and selective CDK 4/6 inhibitors are now used in cancer treatment.
