The Cell Cycle
Chapter 12A.P. Biology

• Overview: The Key Roles of Cell Division
• The continuity of life:
– is based upon the reproduction of cells, or cell
division
Figure 12.1
Unicellular organisms:
– Reproduce by cell division.
(a) Reproduction. An amoeba,
a single-celled eukaryote, is
dividing into two cells. Each
new cell will be an individual
organism (LM).

Binary Fission

• In binary fission:
– The bacterial chromosome replicates
– The two daughter chromosomes actively
move apart

Chromosome replication begins.
Soon thereafter, one copy of the
origin moves rapidly toward the
other end of the cell.

Replication continues. One copy of
the origin is now at each end of
the cell.
Replication finishes. The plasma
membrane grows inward, and
new cell wall is deposited.
Two daughter cells result.

Cell Replication in Bacteria
• Cell division in bacteria is controlled
by the size of the cell; volume of the
cytoplasm.
• Bacteria replicate by binary fission.
• >22 enzymes copy the DNA as a
circle.
• Both copies of the DNA are attached
to the plasma membrane.
Replication of Bacterial Chromosome
How fast can bacteria divide?
The Evolution of Mitosis
• Since prokaryotes preceded eukaryotes by
billions of years:
– It is likely that mitosis evolved from
bacterial cell division
• Certain protists:
– Exhibit types of cell division that seem
intermediate between binary fission and
mitosis carried out by most eukaryotic
cells
A hypothetical sequence for the evolution of mitosis
(a)
Prokaryotes. During binary fission, the origins of the daughter
chromosomes move to opposite ends of the cell. The
mechanism is not fully understood, but proteins may anchor
the daughter chromosomes to specific sites on the plasma
membrane.
Bacterial
chromosome
Chromosomes
(b)
Dinoflagellates. In unicellular protists called dinoflagellates, the
nuclear envelope remains intact during cell division, and the
chromosomes attach to the nuclear envelope. Microtubules
pass through the nucleus inside cytoplasmic tunnels, reinforcing
the spatial orientation of the nucleus, which then divides in a
fission process reminiscent of bacterial division.
(c)
Diatoms. In another group of unicellular protists, the
diatoms, the nuclear envelope also remains intact during
cell division. But in these organisms, the microtubules form
a spindle within the nucleus. Microtubules separate the
chromosomes, and the nucleus splits into two daughter
nuclei.
(d)
Most eukaryotes. In most other eukaryotes, including
plants and animals, the spindle forms outside the
nucleus, and the nuclear envelope breaks down during
mitosis. Microtubules separate the chromosomes, and
the nuclear envelope then re-forms.

Cell Division in Eukaryotic
Cells
• Eukaryotic cells are much larger.
• Also have larger genomes (the sum
of an organisms’s genetic
information).
• Eukaryotic DNA is organized into
much more complex structures.
• Why?
The DNA molecules in a cell
– Are packaged into chromosomes.
Figure 12.3
50 µm
Chromosomes of Eukaryotes
• Chromosomes are composed of
chromatin - a DNA/protein complex.
• Chromatin = 40% DNA + 60%
Protein.
• Every 200 nucleotides , the DNA
duplex coils around a core of eight
histone proteins = Nucleosome.
Polytene Chromosomes
Regions of Chromosomes are Not the
Same
• Condensed portions of chromatin Heterochromatin - are not being
expressed; genes are turned off. May
never be turned on.
• Other portions of chromosome are
decondensed and are being actively
transcribed - Euchromatin. These areas
are only condensed during cell division.
Chromosome Reference Points
Karyotype
Chromosome Terminology
• The two copies of each chromosome in
somatic cells - homologous
chromosomes (homologues). Are
these the same?
• Before cell division, each homologue
replicates --> two sister chromatids
that are joined at the centromere.
How Many Chromosomes are
in Cells?
• Most body or somatic cells have two copies
of almost identical chromosomes - diploid.
Ex. Humans have 23 types of chromosomes
X 2 = 46 (2n or diploid number).
• Sex cells or gametes (egg and sperm) have
only one copy of each chromosome haploid. Ex. Human sperm/egg = 23
chromosomes.
How Many Chromosomes are
in Cells?
• Some somatic cells are truly unusual.
• Human liver cells have 4 copies of all
chromosomes - tetraploid.
• Other cells RBC’s have no nucleus
and therefore, no chromosomes.
Phases of the Cell Cycle
• The cell cycle consists of
– The mitotic phase
– Interphase

• Each duplicated chromosome:
– Has two sister chromatids, which separate
during cell division
A eukaryotic cell has multiple
chromosomes, one of which is
represented here. Before
duplication, each chromosome
has a single DNA molecule.
Once duplicated, a chromosome
consists of two sister chromatids
connected at the centromere. Each
chromatid contains a copy of the
DNA molecule.
Mechanical processes separate
the sister chromatids into two
chromosomes and distribute
them to two daughter cells.

What’s the overall goal of mitosis?
What happens when cells divide
out of control?
• Concept 12.3: The cell cycle is
regulated by a molecular control
system.
• The frequency of cell division:
–Varies with the type of cell
• These cell cycle differences:
–Result from regulation at the
molecular level
Cell Cycle Control
• Internal clocks are not flexible.
• Eukaryotic cells use Check
Points- enzymes that survey
conditions of the cell and act as
“go/no go” switches.
• Regulated by feedback from the
cell.
The Cell Cycle Control System
• The sequential events of the cell cycle
– Are directed by a distinct cell cycle control system,
which is similar to a clock
G1 checkpoint

• The clock has specific checkpoints:
– Where the cell cycle stops until a go-ahead signal is received
G0
G1 checkpoint
G1
Figure 12.15 A, B
(a) If a cell receives a go-ahead signal at
the G1 checkpoint, the cell continues
on in the cell cycle.

(b) If a cell does not receive a go-ahead
signal at the G1checkpoint, the cell
exits the cell cycle and goes into G0, a
nondividing state.
Three Principal Checkpoints
• G1 Checkpoint (also called
START)- end of G1/beginning

DNA.

1 Synthesis of cyclin begins in late S
phase and continues through G2.
Because cyclin is protected from
degradation during this stage, it
accumulates.

of cyclin, and the Cdk

RESULTS
S
When a cell in the S
phase was fused with
a cell in G1, the G1 cell
immediately entered the
S phase—DNA was
synthesized.
M
When a cell in the M phase
was fused with a cell in G1, the
G1 cell immediately began mitosis—
a spindle formed and chromatin
condensed, even though the
chromosome had not been duplicated.
CONCLUSION The results of fusing cells at two different phases of the cell cycle suggest that molecules present in the
Figure 12.13 A, B
cytoplasm of cells in the S or M phase control the progression of phases.
Controlling the Cell Cycle
• Growth Factors. 100 + so far,
many work at G1 checkpoint; bind
to surface receptors of cells. Ex.
PDGF.
• Contact Inhibition. Normal cells
stop growing when they make
contact with other cells; use surface
receptors.
Signal Transduction
and the Cell Cycle
• Growth factors:
– Stimulate other cells to divide

Cells were transferred to sterile culture vessels containing a

salts, and antibiotics (as a precaution against bacterial
growth). PDGF was added to half the vessels. The culture
vessels were incubated at 37°C.

• In density-dependent inhibition (contact inhibition):
– Crowded cells stop dividing
• Most animal cells exhibit anchorage dependence
– In which they must be attached to a substratum to divide
(a)
Normal mammalian cells. The
availability of nutrients, growth
factors, and a substratum for
attachment limits cell
density to a single layer.
Cells anchor to dish surface and
divide (anchorage dependence).
When cells have formed a complete single layer, they stop
dividing
(density-dependent inhibition).
If some cells are scraped away, the remaining cells divide to fill
the gap and then stop (density-dependent inhibition).

nor anchorage dependence.

How do Growth Factors
Work?
• G. F.’s allow passage through G1
checkpoint by causing more cyclins
to be formed.
• Some genes normally stimulate cell
division- protooncogenes. (myc,
fos, jun, ras) Ch. 19.
When Protooncogenes Go Bad!
• Mutations in protooncogenes or
their regulation lead to oncogenes
– genes that promote uncontrolled
cell division and MAY lead to
tumor formation.
• Ex. Growth Factor, HER-2 and
Breast Cancer
HER-2 Receptor as an Oncogene
Herceptin –
a treatment
• The Ras protein, encoded by the ras protoncogene
– Is a G protein that relays a signal from a growth factor
receptor on the plasma membrane to a cascade of protein
kinases
MUTATION
Ras
GTP
(a) Cell cycle–stimulating pathway.

This pathway is triggered by
a growth
factor that binds to its receptor in the
plasma membrane. The signal is relayed to
a G protein called Ras. Like all G proteins, Ras
is active when GTP is bound to it. Ras passes
the signal to a 4series of protein kinases.
The last kinase activates a transcription
5
activator that turns on one or more genes
for proteins that stimulate the cell cycle. If a
mutation makes Ras or any other pathway
component abnormally active, excessive cell
division and cancer may result.

• The p53 gene encodes a tumor-suppressor protein
– That is a specific transcription factor that promotes
the synthesis of cell cycle–inhibiting proteins
(b) Cell cycle–inhibiting pathway. In this
pathway, 1DNA damage is an intracellular
signal that is passed via 2 protein kinases
and leads to activation of 3 p53. Activated
p53 promotes transcription of the gene for a
protein that inhibits the cell cycle. The
resulting suppression of cell division ensures
that the damaged DNA is not replicated.
Mutations causing deficiencies in any
pathway component can contribute to the
development of cancer.

Controlling Cell Growth
• The case of retinoblastoma (Rb).
• Some genes normally inhibit cell
division- tumor suppressor
genes.
• Example: In GO, Rb protein is
dephosphorylated and binds to the
Myc protein, preventing its
promoting of cell division.
Two Types of Cell Division
Control
• Positive Controls- like growth
factors, protoncogenes stimulate cell
division.
• Negative Controls- like tumor
suppressors, contact inhibition
prevent cell division. Ex. p53,
BRCA1 and 2 (Breast Cancer, early
onset)
Mutations in Cell Division Control
• Mutations in protoncogenes – tend to
be dominant – only one defective
copy needed to lead to cancer.
• Mutations in tumor suppressors –
tend to be recessive- can still suppress
cell division with only one good copy
of the gene- both must be defective to
develop cancer.
• Fig. 19.13: A multistep model for the development of
colorectal cancer - about a dozen mutations in genes
needed ( at least one oncogene and many tumor
suppressor mutations are needed)
