Degradation of which protein is one of the triggers for the intiation of Mphase of the cell cycle Cyclin A/B Wee1 TOR Cdk1 None of these
Cell division is carefully regulated and coordinated in eukaryotic cells by protein kinases that have been conserved from yeasts to mammals. Abnormal activity if these kinases is a common cause of the abnormal proliferation of cancer cells. true false
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) is a peptide hormone (ligand) that binds and activates IGF receptor tyrosine kinase. Once the ligands bind the receptors, the cell undergoes cell division and multiply. Therefore, IGF is important for the growth of muscle and bone tissues during puberty. The way the IGF hormone works is that the hormone-bound IGF receptor tyrosine kinase increases the levels of cyclins inside of the cell and promotes the progression of the cell cycle. Describe how receptor tyrosine kinase works in a general sense and how cyclins regulate the cell cycle.
The resulting hypermethylation profiles (of DNA and/or histones) from mutant IDH and high 2-HG levels contribute to the silencing of differentiation-related genes, promoting the accumulation of cells arrested in the course of their differentiation, capable of self-renewal and prone to tumorigenesis.

Indicate whether each of the following statements related is likely to be true or false Similar to the Cdks, when activated, the anaphase-promoting complex phosphorylates its targets. The level of M-cyclin is constant throughout the cell cycle.
BRCA1 and BRCA2 are genes that encode proteins involved in DNA repair. If DNA can not be repaired, BRCA1 and BRCA2 activate a cell cycle checkpoint. Are BRCA1 and BRCA2 proto-oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes. Please explain why
A mutation in the Ras protein could directly affect improper _____ Select one: a. cell signaling leading to alterations in cell division b. cell signaling leading to alterations proteasome activity c. microtubule assembly leading to faulty cell division d. protein degradation during the cell cycle e. protein phosphorylation in the cell cycle
"In the cellular regulatory pathways that control cell growth and proliferation, the products of oncogenes are stimulatory components and the products of tumor suppressor genes are inhibitory components" is true or false.
True/False with Justification. Indicate whether the statement is true or false. Then, regardless of whether you choose true or false, explain your reasoning. The Wee1 kinase could be considered the product of a tumor suppressor gene. A cell containing a mutant form of the Rb protein that cannot be phosphorylated would be blocked at the G1 -> S checkpoint.
