Cell Cycle Life of a Eukaryotic Cell
(Interphase in Red) • G1 – cell grows & carries out major functions • S – DNA is copied • G2 – Prep for mitosis; organelles reproduced • Mitosis – Nucleus divided into two nuclei, each with same number and kind of chromosomes • Cytokinesis – cytoplasm divides
Cell Cycle Control • How does cell “know” when to divide? • Cell cycle controlled by many proteins (enzymes) at three main checkpoints: • G1 checkpoint – decision made whether cell will divide (cell healthy and large enough). Some types of cell never pass this point (nerve, muscle) • G2 checkpoint – Did DNA replication go OK? If so, go on to mitosis • Mitosis checkpoint – Is mitosis over? If so, head to G1 phase
Cancer - What happens if control is lost • Cancer = uncontrolled cell growth • Disorder of cell division • Control mechanisms don’t work (gene for proteins that control cell cycle are defective) • Mutations: • Overproduction of growth-promoting hormones – speeds up cell cycle • Inactivation the control proteins that act to slow or stop cell cycle
Mitosis and Cytokinesis • Chromatids are physically moved to opposite sides of dividing cells with help of spindle fibers • Centrosome (in animals) – made up of two centrioles - organizes assembly of spindle fibers • Spindle fibers made from microtubules
Mitosis and Cytokinesis • Chromatids separate by attaching spindle fibers • Spindle fibers attach to centromeres of chromosomes • Paired chromatids separate. One chromatid goes to one pole of the cell, the other chromatid goes to the other as the spindle fibers shorten
