9.1 The Cell Cycle

• The cell cycle is an orderly set of stages from the first division to the time the resulting daughter cells divide

• Just prior to the next division: The cell grows larger The number of organelles doubles The DNA is replicated

• The two major stages of the cell cycle: Interphase (includes several stages) Mitotic Stage (includes mitosis and cytokinesis)

The Cell Cycle

• Interphase Most of the cell cycle is spent in

interphase Cell performs its usual functions Time spent in interphase varies by cell

type Nerve and muscle cells do not complete

the cell cycle (remain in the G0 stage)

5

The Cell Cycle

• Interphase consists of: G1, S, and G2 phases G1 Phase:

• Recovery from previous division• Cell doubles its organelles• Cell grows in size• Cell accumulates raw materials for DNA synthesis

S Phase:• DNA replication • Proteins associated with DNA are synthesized • Chromosomes enter with 1 chromatid each• Chromosomes leave with 2 identical chromatids (sister

chromatids) each G2 Phase:

• Between DNA replication and onset of mitosis• Cell synthesizes proteins necessary for division

6

The Cell Cycle

• M (Mitotic) Stage Includes:

• Mitosis – Nuclear division

– Daughter chromosomes are distributed by the mitotic spindle to two daughter nuclei

• Cytokinesis– Division of the cytoplasm

Results in two genetically identical daughter cells

7

The Cell Cycle

• The cell cycle is controlled by internal and external signals

• A signal is a molecule that either stimulates or inhibits a metabolic event. Internal signals

• Family of proteins called cyclins that increase and decrease as the cell cycle continues

• Without cyclins, the cell cycle stops at G1, M or G2 (checkpoints)

• Allows time for any damage to be repaired

8

The Cell Cycle

• Apoptosis is programmed cell death• It involves a sequence of cellular events:

fragmenting of the nucleus, blistering of the plasma membrane engulfing of cell fragments.

• Apoptosis is caused by enzymes called caspases.

• Mitosis and apoptosis are opposing forces Mitosis increases cell number Apoptosis decreases cell number

The Cell Cycle

• Apoptosis Cells harbor caspases that are kept in

check by inhibitors• Can be unleashed by internal or external

signals Signal protein p53

• Stops the cell cycle at G1 when DNA is damaged

• Initiates an attempt at DNA repair–If successful, the cycle continues to

mitosis–If not, apoptosis is initiated

9.2 Mitosis and Cytokinesis

• DNA is in very long threads Chromosomes Stretched out and intertwined between divisions DNA is associated with histones (proteins) DNA and histone proteins are collectively called

chromatin

• Before mitosis begins: Chromatin condenses (coils) into distinctly

visible chromosomes Each species has a characteristic

chromosome number

13

14

Diploid Chromosome Numbers of Some Eukaryotes

Mitosis and Cytokinesis

• The diploid (2n) number includes two sets of chromosomes of each type Humans have 23 different types of

chromosomes• Each type is represented twice in each body cell

(diploid)• Only sperm and eggs have one of each type

·termed haploid (n) The haploid (n) number for humans is 23

• Two representatives of each chromosome type• Makes a total of 2n = 46 in each nucleus

– One set of 23 from individual’s father (paternal)– Other set of 23 from individual’s mother (maternal)

15

Mitosis and Cytokinesis

• At the end of S phase: Each chromosome internally duplicated Consists of two identical DNA chains

• Sister chromatids (two strands of genetically identical chromosomes)

• Attached together at a single point (called centromere)

• During mitosis: Centromeres holding sister chromatids together

separate Sister chromatids separate Each becomes a daughter chromosome Sisters of each type are distributed to opposite

daughter nuclei

Mitosis and Cytokinesis

• Just outside the nucleus is the centrosome This is the microtubule organizing center in animal

cells Organizes the mitotic spindle

• Contains many fibers• Each fiber is composed of a bundle of microtubules

In animals, the centrosome contains two barrel-shaped centrioles

• Oriented at right angles to each other within the centrosome• Each has 9 triplets of microtubules arranged in a cylinder

• Centrosome was also replicated in S-phase, so there are two centrosomes before mitosis begins

18

Mitosis and Cytokinesis

• Phases of Mitosis: Prophase

• Chromatin has condensed– Chromosomes are distinguishable with microscope

– Each chromosome has two sister chromatids attached at the centromere

• Nucleolus disappears

• Nuclear envelope disintegrates

• Spindle begins to assemble

• The two centrosomes move away from each other

• Microtubules form star-like arrays termed asters

19

Mitosis and Cytokinesis

• Phases of Mitosis

Prometaphase

• The centromere of each chromosome develops two kinetochores

– Specialized protein complex

– One attached to each sister chromatid

» Physically connect sister chromatids with specialized microtubules (kinetochores)

» These connect sister chromatids to opposite poles of the mother cell

20

Mitosis and Cytokinesis

• Stages of Mitosis Metaphase

• Chromosomes are pulled around by kinetochore fibers

• Forced to align across the equatorial plane of the cell

– Metaphase plate - Represents plane through which mother cell will be divided

Anaphase• Centromere dissolves, releasing sister chromatids

• Sister chromatids separate

– Now called daughter chromosomes

– Pulled to opposite poles along kinetochore fibers

21

Mitosis and Cytokinesis

• Stages of Mitosis Telophase

• Spindle disappears

• Now two clusters of daughter chromosomes

– Still two of each type with all types represented

– Clusters are incipient daughter nuclei

• Nuclear envelopes form around the two incipient daughter nuclei

– Each daughter nucleus receives one chromosome of each type

22

Mitosis and Cytokinesis

• Cytokinesis = division of cytoplasm• Allocates the mother cell’s cytoplasm equally to

daughter nucleus• Encloses each daughter cell in its own plasma

membrane• Often begins in anaphase• Animal cytokinesis:

A cleavage furrow appears between daughter nuclei Formed by a contractile ring of actin filaments Like pulling on a drawstring Eventually pinches the mother cell in two

23

Mitosis and Cytokinesis

• Cytokinesis in plant cells begins with the formation of a cell plate Rigid cell walls outside plasma membrane do not

permit furrowing Many small membrane-bounded vesicles Eventually fuse into one thin vesicle extending across

the mother cell The membranes of the cell plate become the plasma

membrane between the daughter cells The space between the daughter cells becomes filled

with the middle lamella Daughter cells later secrete primary cell walls on

opposite sides of the middle lamella

Phases of Mitosis in Animal and Plant Cells

• Functions of mitosis: Permits growth and repair. In flowering plants, meristematic tissue

retains the ability to divide throughout the life of the plant

In mammals, mitosis is necessary when:• A fertilized egg becomes an embryo • An embryo becomes a fetus• A cut heals or a broken bone mends

34

Phases of Mitosis in Animal and Plant Cells

• Stem Cells Many mammalian organs contain stem cells

• Retain the ability to divide • Red bone marrow stem cells divide to produce various

types of blood cells

Therapeutic cloning to produce human tissues can begin with either adult stem cells or embryonic stem cells

Embryonic stem cells can be used for reproductive cloning, the production of a new individual

9.3 The Cell Cycle and Cancer

• Abnormal growth of cells is called a tumor Benign tumors are not cancerous

• Encapsulated• Do not invade neighboring tissue or spread

Malignant tumors are cancerous• Not encapsulated• Readily invade neighboring tissues• May also detach and lodge in distant places (metastasis)• Results from mutation of genes regulating the cell cycle

• Development of cancer Tends to be gradual May take years before a cell is obviously cancerous

37

The Cell Cycle and Cancer

• Characteristics of Cancer Cells Lack differentiation

• Are non-specialized• Are immortal (can enter cell cycle repeatedly)

Have abnormal nuclei• May be enlarged• May have abnormal number of chromosomes• Often have extra copies of genes

Do not undergo apoptosis• Normally, cells with damaged DNA undergo apoptosis• The immune system can also recognize abnormal cells and

trigger apoptosis• Cancer cells are abnormal but fail to undergo apoptosis

38

The Cell Cycle and Cancer

• Characteristics of Cancer Cells Form tumors

• Mitosis is normally controlled by contact with neighboring cells – contact inhibition

• Cancer cells have lost contact inhibition Undergo metastasis

• Original tumor easily fragments• New tumors appear in other organs

Undergo angiogenesis• Formation of new blood vessels

– Brings nutrients and oxygen to the tumor

New mutations arise, and one cell (brown) has the ability to start a tumor.

Cancer in situ. The tumor is at its place of origin. One cell (purple)mutates further.

Cancer cells now have the ability to invade lymphatic and blood vesselsand travel throughout the body.

New metastatic tumors are found some distance from the primary tumor.

Cancer Cells vs. Normal Cells

41

The Cell Cycle and Cancer

• Origin of Cancer Oncogenes

• Proto-oncogenes promote the cell cycle in various ways

• If a proto-oncogene is mutated, it may become an oncogene

Tumor suppressor genes inhibit the cell cycle in various ways

• If a tumor suppressor gene becomes inactive, it may promote cancer development

Both proto-oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes are normally regulated in coordination with organism’s growth plan

42

The Cell Cycle and Cancer

• Origin of Cancer Chromosomes normally have special material

at each end called telomeres These get shorter each cell division When they get very short, the cell will no

longer divide Telomerase is an enzyme that maintains the

length of telomeres Mutations in telomerase gene:

• Cause telomeres to continue to lengthen, which• Allows cancer cells to continually divide

9.4 Prokaryotic Cell Division

• The prokaryotic chromosome is a ring of DNA Folded up in an area called the nucleoid 1,000 X the length of cell Replicated into two rings prior to cell division Replicated rings attach to the plasma membrane

• Binary fission Splitting in two Two replicate chromosomes are distributed to two

daughter cells Produces two daughter cells identical to original cell –
