Which of the following are regulators of Cdks?
Choose all that apply. There are 3 correct answers. You will LOSE points (from the total correct) for incorrect answers. This is to discourage guessing.
licensing proteins
activating kinases
cyclins
inhibiting kinases
Rb
Mad and Bub proteins
This phosphatase removes an inhibitory phosphotyrosine phosphate from serine protein kinase, mentioned in question 6, which activates kinase. What phosphatase is it?
This is what question 6 says....This is the serine protein kinase that when activated in a complex cyclin, controls onset of mitosis and M-phase of the cell cycle.
1. Cyclin A/B
2. Wee 1
3. TOR (Target of Rapmycin)
4. Cdk1
5. none of the these
***I believe the answer is Cdk1 for number 6, but I could be wrong
Which protein is a positive regulator that phosphorylates other proteins when activated? a. p53 b. retinoblastoma protein (Rb) c. cyclin d. cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk)
