Kinases and cyclins are internal factors that?
control the cell cycle
Describe the roles of checkpoint cyclin CDK and MPF in the cell-cycle control system?
Cyclin is a regulatory protein that a kinase much be attached to. Cyclin gets its name from its cyclically fluctuating concentraion in the cell. Because of this requirement, these kinases are called cyclin-dependent kinases, CDK's. The CDK rises and falls with changes in the concentration of its cyclic partner. The first cyclin-CDK complex discovered was the MPF. The peaks of MPF activity correspond to the peaks of cyclin concentration. MPF stands for maturation-promoting factors. Basically, the rhythmic fluctuations in the abundance and activity of cell cycle control molecules pace the sequential events of the cell cycle. These regulatory molecules are proteins; kinase, and other enzymes. Particular protein kinases give the "go-ahead" signals at the G1 and G2 checkpoints.
What is the protein that regulates cell cycle?
The proteins that participate in the functioning of the checkpoints for cell cycle control are cyclins. The cell cycle controls cyclin dependent kinases as well.
The activation of receptor tyrosine kinases is characterized by what?
Dimerization and phosphorylation
The activation of receptor tyrosine kinases is characterized by?
dimerization and phosphorylation.
What is the family of molecules that control the cell cycle?
cyclin dependent kinases,CDK's
What is the name of enzymes that control the activities of other proteins by phosphorylating them?
Phosphorylation of molecules, particularly enzymes and functional proteins within a cell, is a critical signaling mechanism that is essential to proper function. Phosphorylation of target amino acids on these proteins is carried out be the action of kinases.
What are protein kinases and what is their function in human body?
Kinases are enzymes used to move phosphate groups from high-energy donor molecules to specific substrates.
Kinases and cyclins are internal factors that?
control the cell cycle
The receptor for a group of signaling molecules known as growth factors are often?
receptor tyrosine kinases
What is the category of enzymes that control the cell cycle called?
Cyclin-dependent kinases.
How do cell communicate with each other?
Cells produce signalling molecules such as hormones, which bind to receptors in the cell membrane. The receptors then activate relay proteins, which activate protein kinases by causing them to change shape. The protein kinases then activate other protein kinases down the line by adding phosphate groups to them from ATP until one of the kinases turns on a protein that can provoke a cellular response. Depending on the type of signal, the cell may make more signalling molecules and start the process all over in other cells.
What type of chemical reactions do kinases catalyze?
Kinases are apart of the Transferases in the Enzymes of metabolism. Kinases transfers phosphate between substrates.
