Cdks and cyclins
Â
What type of enzyme is Cdk?
Â
What does phosphorylation by Cdk do it it's "target" proteins?
Â
How is activity of Cdk regulated (i.e. what do cyclins do?)
Â
Know how the cycling of cyclins is essential for progress through the cell cycle
Â
Â
How does a cancer cell develop and metastasize?
Â
What are mutations?
Â
What is the role of mutations in this process?
Â
Â
General stages of cancer development from a single cell to a metastatic tumor
Â
What is meant by the statement that "cancer is clonal?"
Â
Â
Relationship between loss of cell cycle control and cancer development
Â
Proto-oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes
Â
Which promotes cell division? Which inhibits cell division?
Â
Which is likely to be dominant? Which is likely to be recessive?
Â
Proto-oncogene vs. oncogen
Â
Â
-Growth Factors
Â
How to they "signal" the cell to promote cell division?
Â
Proto-oncogene or tumor suppressor gene?
Growth factor receptors?
What type of mutation is likely to turn growth factors or growth factor receptors into oncogenes?
Â
p53
Why is it called the guardian of the genome?
Â
What does it do to the cell cycle in response to DNA damage?
Â
What does the cell do when p53 halts the cell cycle? (repair or kill itself)
Â
What is the relationship between p53 and p21?
Â
What is the function of p21 protein?
Â
i.e. what does it do to the cyclin/cdk complex?
Â
Â

Â
Types of cancer therapies and what they do?
