Chapter 12, Problem 11TYK

During cell division, cyclin combines with cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) to form a complex called MPF. This complex

  1. a. moves the cell past the G2 checkpoint into mitosis.
  2. b. ensures that DNA has been repaired prior to S phase of mitosis.
  3. c. promotes the degradation of cyclin, but leaves Cdk intact.
  4. d. both a and c

Cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases regulate progression through the cell cycle. Which of the following determines progression beyond the restriction point in G1? Select one: a. The presence of cyclin and Cdk. O b. The presence of cyclin. c. Phosphorylation of RB by Cdk. d. The presence of external signals from growth factors. e. The absence of cyclin.
Which of the following statements about the cell cycle is TRUE?   a. The protein APC blocks cells from entering anaphase   b. CDKs are degraded after each cell cycle phase by the addition of a ubiquitin chain to the proteins   c. A kinase is a protein that adds a ubiquitin chain to other proteins Cyclin activity is necessary, but not always sufficient, for CDK activation   d. Cyclin proteins must be degraded before Cdk proteins can be activated
Which of the following is the primary method by which cyclin proteins are regulated to influence entry into the cell cycle or transition from one stage to the next?   A. Transcriptional upregulation and translation followed by targeted ubiquitin-mediated degradation by a proteasome.   B. Phosphorylation to regulate the activity of the kinase site.   C. An activating phosphorylation and an inactivating phosphorylation.   D. All of these are mechanisms that can be used to regulate cyclins.
