Question
Chapter 10, Problem 2VC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The common condition in cell A (step 1) and cell B (step 5).
Concept introduction:
A bacteriophage is a virus that infects bacterial cell. Bacteriophage integrates their genome into the bacterial cell where they replicate and produces large numbers of progeny. The bacteriophage follows two cycles: the lytic cycle and lysogenic cycle depending on the activation of genes. The lytic cycle causes the lysis of bacterial cell while the lysogenic cycle did not lyse the bacterial cell.

4) Describe in detail how p53 and MDM2 regulate cell division in a normal, healthy cell. You
should describe 1) how these proteins cooperate to allow a cell to go through the cell cycle, 2)
how they cooperate to stop the cell cycle, and 3) how they allow the cell cycle to continue again
after having stopped it initially. You may use point form if you want.
When a cell transitions from one type to another (for example in the case of gastrulation), what must be causing this transition at a molecular level? (i.e. what is the possible mechanism for this transition)?
Assume that you are growing mammalian cells in culture. You are able to synchronize
the culture, meaning all of the cells undergo each stage of the cell cycle at the same
time.

- ANSWER QUESTION A AND B. A protein was recently discovered to be located in the nucleus. However, it is uncertain whether this is a protein that permanently stays in the nucleus or a shuttling protein that stays most of the time in the nucleus. One way to resolve this question is to perform the following steps: • Fuse the cells expressing the fluorescently labeled protein in their nucleus with the cells that are not expressing it. • Treat the cells with an inhibitor of protein synthesis to prevent the synthesis of more labeled proteins. • Observe for fluorescence in the fused cell with two nuclei. a. What is the expected result if the protein stays permanently in the nucleus? b. What is the expected result if it is a shuttling protein?

When done, there should be at least 50 marks on the table (one mark for each cell). You may need to count more than 50 to find at least one of every phase. Calculate the proportions, and estimate the amount of time spent in each phase and subphase. The table will lead you through how this works. Take the number of cells in a particular phase, divided by the total number of cells examined (i.e., 50—or more), then multiply by 24 (the number of hours an average onion root tip cell takes to complete the entire cycle. This should give the hours a cell spends in each phase. Again, this assumes, that the entire cell cycle for onion root cells is 24 hours. This time can vary in different organisms.
