, Cell Cycle
Introduction
Traditional methods of studying the cell cycle

DNA Replication
- 3H-Thymidine incorporation
o Inject autoradiated thymidine into cell then use autoradiography to see if its
been incorporated into the DNA
- Artificial Thymidine analog Bromo-deoxyuridine (BrdU)
o Readily incorporates opposite Adenines.
o If cell is replicating then BrdU will be incorporated
o Fluorescently labelled anti-BrdU antibodies will show up if cell replication has
occurred.


Model systems for studying the cell cycle
- Mammalian cells proliferating in culture
- Genetic analysis in budding yeast
- Animal embryos: Xenopus & sea urchin eggs



Phases of the cell cycle
G1 Phase:
- Immediately after mitosis
S phase:
- DNA Replication
G2 Phase:
- Before mitosis
M Phase:
- Mitosis
G0 Phase:
- After mitosis if cell leaves cycle and stops dividing
Interphase:
- G1 + S + G2
- DNA is diffusely distributed within nucleus


Different types of Cell Cycles
- Embryonic Cell cycles
o Short cycles of constant duration
o Very synchronous
- Growing cell cycles
o Longer cycles of variable duration

, Cell Cycle
- Reversible exit from cell cycle
o Some cells stop growing and leave the cycle until interacted with a growth
factor etc.


Checkpoints in the Cell Cycle




Regulators in Cell Cycle

Dominant M-phase Factor:
- 1970s: Cell fusion experiments showed that there were different regulators at
different stages of the cell cycle
- Active during Mitosis
- Synchronized mammalian cells, mixed cells in presence of virus or chemical agent
that caused their membranes to fuse- formed hybrid cells
- Results:
o G1 fused with M phase cells = chromatin immediately condensed
o G2 fused with M phase cells = chromatin immediately condensed
o S phase fused with M phase cells = chromatin immediately condensed
- Conclusion:
o Dominant M-phase factor
o Mitotic cells must contain a diffusible factors that induce mitosis when
introduced to cells at other stages of the cell cycle

Dominant S-phase factor:
- When G1 and S cells fused
- G1 cells immediately began to replicate their DNA
- Conclusion:
o Factors from S phase cell must induce DNA replication in G1 nucleus – hybrid
cell delays mitosis until replication has completed.
o S-phase factor induces DNA replication
