Do Now – Understanding Cellular Reproduction
Why Do Cells Need to Reproduce?
List 3 reasons why a cell might need to divide.
Why Do Cells Need to Reproduce?
Growth (of an
organism)
Replacement(of old or
dying cells)
Repair (of damaged
cells)
Example: Organisms Grow When Cells Divide!Development of a Worm
Animal Cell Division
Sea Urchin Development
• In unicellular organisms, division of one cell reproduces the entire organism
• Multicellular organisms depend on cell division for:– Development from a fertilized cell– Growth– Repair
• Cell division is an integral part of the cell cycle, the life of a cell from formation to its own division
Why Do Cells Need to Reproduce?

“DNA Coiling” - Formation of a ChromosomeCellular DNA (chromatin) is composed of both DNA & protein! -Approximately 40% DNA and 60% protein
A single DNA molecule (chromosome) is made up from 140million nucleotides (depending on size of chromosome)! -”Stretched out” a single chromosome of this size would ! measure close to 5 centimeters in length! -In a typical human cell, 9 meters of DNA are packaged! within the nucleus
How does all of this DNA “fit” inside the nucleus?
“DNA Packaging” - Formation of a Chromosome
NucleosomeComposed of positively charged histone proteinsthat interact with negativelycharged DNA molecules
≈150 DNA base pairs “wrap” around each histone complex (approx. 2.5 turns)
What is the charge on DNA?
Structure of a Chromosome• Chromosomes are only
visible when a cell is getting ready to divide
• Chromatin (combination of DNA and protein) is packaged into chromosomes before mitosis begins
• Chromosomes have the typical “X” shape only after they have been copied and packaged
• Each half of the “X” is called a sister chromatid
• The two sister chromatids are attached by a structure called the centromere

What is the Overall Goal of Cell Reproduction???
An “exact” copy of the parent cell’s DNA is passed on to subsequent generations of cells
• Eukaryotic cell division consists of:– Mitosis, the division of the nucleus– Cytokinesis, the division of the cytoplasm
• Gametes are produced by a variation of cell division called meiosis
• Meiosis yields nonidentical daughter cells that have only one set of chromosomes, half as many as the parent cell
Mitosis vs. Meiosis
• The cell cycle consists of– Mitotic (M) phase (mitosis and cytokinesis)– Interphase (cell growth and copying of chromosomes in
preparation for cell division)
• Interphase (about 90% of the cell cycle) can be divided into subphases:
– G1 phase (“first gap”)
– S phase (“synthesis”)
– G2 phase (“second gap”)
The Cell Cycle
• Stage of the cell cycle where a cell spends 90% of its life
• The cell prepares for cell division during interphase– The cell makes new
molecules and organelles• Interphase can be divided into
3 “mini-stages” ! G1 (Gap/Growth 1) - Cell
grows, organelles replicated,! period of rapid protein
synthesis!! S (Synthesis) - DNA copied! G2 (Gap 2) - Cell finishes
growing and prepares to divide• G0 - A period of cell stasis
– Cell is not preparing to divide
Interphase
Interphase Animation
Mitotic Phase• Composed of two parts
1) Mitosis (Prophase, Prometaphase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase)• DNA within the nucleus
is evenly distributed into two new daughter cells
2) Cytokinesis• Cytoplasm is distributed
into two new daughter cells during/ immediately after telophase

Cytokinesis - A Closer Look (Plants)In plant cells, a cell plate forms during cytokinesis
• The mitotic spindle is an apparatus of microtubules that controls chromosome movement during mitosis
• Assembly of spindle microtubules begins in the centrosome, the microtubule organizing center
• The centrosome replicates, forming two centrosomes that migrate to opposite ends of the cell, as spindle microtubules grow out from them
• An aster (a radial array of short microtubules) extends from each centrosome
The Mitotic Spindle – A Closer Look
• The spindle includes the centrosomes, the spindle microtubules, and the asters
• Some spindle microtubules attach to the kinetochores of chromosomes and move the chromosomes to the metaphase plate
• Nonkinetochore microtubules from opposite poles overlap and push against each other, elongating the cell
• In telophase, genetically identical daughter nuclei form at opposite ends of the cell

Remember chromosome structureduring mitosis:
1. Chromatin has condensed into chromosomes
2. Sister chromatids are attached at the centromere
3. Kinetochore has attached duplicated chromosomes to the spindle

Chromatincondensing 10 µm
Prophase. The chromatin is condensing.The nucleolus is beginning to disappear.Although not yet visible in the micrograph, the mitotic spindle is starting to form.
Prometaphase. Wenow see discrete chromosomes; each consists of two identical sister chromatids. Laterin prometaphase, the nuclear envelope will fragment.
Metaphase. The spindle is complete, and the chromosomes, attached to microtubules at their kinetochores, are all at the metaphase plate.
Anaphase. The chromatids of each chromosome have separated, and the daughter chromosomes are moving to the ends of the cell as their kinetochore micro- tubules shorten.
Telophase. Daughter nuclei are forming. Meanwhile, cytokinesis has started: The cell plate, which will divide the cytoplasm in two, is growing toward the perimeter of the parent cell.
What Do Plant Cells Going Through Stages of the Cell Cycle Look Like?
Root Tip (Plant) Mitosis
Identifying Stages of the Cell CycleChapter 8 Review (University of Arizona)
What Do Plant Cells Going Through Stages of the Cell Cycle Look Like?
• Prokaryotes (bacteria and archaea) reproduce by a type of cell division called binary fission
• In binary fission, the chromosome replicates (beginning at the origin of replication), and the two daughter chromosomes actively move apart
Cell Reproduction in Prokaryotes - Binary Fission
Origin ofreplication
Cell wall
Plasmamembrane
Bacterialchromosome
E. coli cell
Two copiesof origin
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.
Origin Origin
Replication finishes. The plasma membrane grows inward, and new cell wall is deposited.
Two daughtercells result.
Cell Reproduction in Prokaryotes - Binary Fission
Cell Reproduction in Prokaryotes - Binary FissionBacteria possess a single circular chromosome made of DNA and proteinChromosome replicatedprior to cell divisionCopy of each chromosomedistributed into each newcell as cell membrane pinches and a new cell wall forms between the two cells
• The frequency of cell division varies with the type of cell• These cell cycle differences result from regulation at the
molecular level
Which Factors Control the Cell Cycle?
• The cell cycle appears to be driven by specific chemical signals present in the cytoplasm
• Some evidence for this hypothesis comes from experiments in which cultured mammalian cells at different phases of the cell cycle were fused to form a single cell with two nuclei
What Are These Chemical Signals?
Do Now – Cancer BiologyTumor formation is governed by improper cell cycle signalingwhich is brought about by a dysregulation of intracellualar andextracellular signaling events.
The presence of MPF (i.e. a cyclin/cdk complex) is required for a cell to move from G2 into mitosis
Using this signaling event as a starting point, briefly describe how a cell could be stimulated to divide in an uncontrolled manner. Consider the following as you formulate your answer:
1. What is the role of checkpoints in uncontrolled cell division?2. What are the role of proto-oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes in cell division?3. How is DNA mutation involved in the deregulation of cell division?
Do Now – Making Predictions
1. Predict what would happen if a cell in the S phase was fused to a cell in the G1 phase. Explain.
2. Predict what would happen if a cell in mitosis were fused to a cell in the G1 phase. Explain.
3. Predict what would happen if a cell in G1 were fused to a cell in G2. Explain.

G1 G1M
M M
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.
When a cell in the M phase was fused with a cell in G1, the G1 cell immediately beganmitosis—a spindle formed and chromatin condensed, even though the chromosome had not been duplicated.
Ubiquitin-targeted Destruction of Cellular ProteinsTranslation can be controlled by regulating whether or not theribosomal subunits are able to bind to the mRNA
What can the cell do if the protein has already been translated?
Answer: The Proteasome! (A Cellular “Garbage Can”!)
Proteins targeted for destruction are firstubiquitinated -Ubiquitin is a small protein that marks a protein for destruction
Ubiquintinated proteins bind to the proteasome, are unfolded, and hydrolyzedinto small peptides which are recycled within the cell
Which Factors Control the Cell Cycle?
Importance of checkpoints and the restriction point
Checkpoint = A “stop or go signal”; progress to the next stageof cell cycle! -Account for progress within each stage (ex. ! complete synthesis of organism’s DNA during S ! phase)
Restriction point = A “enter or exit signal”; commitment to celldivision! -Present between G1 and S stages of interphase ! -Cells that pass the R.P. will divide; cells that do not will! enter G0 (a period of cell cycle arrest or senescence)
The sequential events of the cell cycle are directed by a distinct cell cycle control system, which is similar to a “clock”
G1
G1 checkpoint
G1
G0
If a cell receives a go-ahead signal at the G1 checkpoint, the cell continues on in the cell cycle.
If a cell does not receive a go-ahead signal at the G1 checkpoint, the cell exits the cell cycle and goes into G0, a nondividing state.
Cell Cycle Checkpoints and Restriction Points
Restriction point
3 checkpoints assess the internal state of the cell aswell as the condition ofthe external environment G1/S (restriction point) G2/M M (spindle checkpoint)
• For many cells, the G1/S checkpoint seems to be the most important one
• If a cell receives a go-ahead signal at the G1 checkpoint, it will usually complete the S, G2, and M phases and divide
• If the cell does not receive the go-ahead signal, it will exit the cycle, switching into a nondividing state called the G0 phase
Importance of the Restriction Point
Which Molecules Regulate Cell Cycle Checkpoints?
Cdk (cyclin-dependent kinase)Major control switches for the cell cycle, causing the cell to move through checkpoints (e.g. G1-->S or G2--> M). -Cdk activation requires binding to a cyclin -Cdks function by phosphorylating molecules in the cell in effect turning them “on” or “off”
Cyclins - Cellular proteins that bind to and activate/inhibit CdksAmount of cyclin protein fluctuates/cycles during cell cycle
Cell Cycle Clock (MPF and G2 --> M checkpoint)
MPF (mitosis promoting factor) -form CyclinB/Cdk1 complexRegulates passage from G2--> M
Begins breakdown of nuclear membrane by phosphorylating (via active cyclin/cdk complex) nuclear lamina proteins
Multiple cyclins and cdks regulate passage through other cell cycle checkpoints
Do Now – Evaluating Cell Cycle CheckpointsUsing what you know about the events of interphase andmitosis, develop a checkpoint strategy for a typical cell.
You may choose the G1/S, G2/M, or mitosis checkpoint
Checkpoint strategy = What would the cell want to do BEFORE entering the next stage of the cell cycle?

DNA undamaged?DNA replicated? Chromosomes
attached to spindle?
• An example of an internal signal is that kinetochores not attached to spindle microtubules send a molecular signal that delays anaphase
• Some external signals are growth factors, proteins released by certain cells that stimulate other cells to divide
• For example, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) stimulates the division of human fibroblast cells in culture
Other Examples of Mitotic/Cell Cycle Regulators
Density-Dependent Inhibition of Cell Growth
Henriettta Lacks and HeLacells -Immortal line of cervical cancer cells
Hayflick number - # of celldivisions is limited in cell culture
Exception to Density-Dependent Inhibition
Chromosome shortening believed to be responsible for cell senescence before cellsreach Hayflick number of celldivisions
• Cancer cells exhibit neither density-dependent inhibition nor anchorage dependence
Cancer cells do not exhibitanchorage dependenceor density-dependent inhibition.
25 µm
• Cancer cells form tumors, masses of abnormal cells within otherwise normal tissue
• If abnormal cells remain at the original site, the lump is called a benign tumor
• Malignant tumors invade surrounding tissues and can metastasize, exporting cancer cells to other parts of the body, where they may form secondary tumors

Growth Factors and Cell Cycle Regulation
Exploring the Effects of Growth Factors on Different Types of Cells
Proto-oncogenes (more than 50 currently known)! -Genes that are used to make proteins that promote cell ! division !! -Proto-oncogenes can become oncogenes when ! mutated; oncogenes are always positive regulators! -Proto-oncogenes could encode growth factor receptors! or ANY component of the signaling pathway leading ! from the receptor to the nucleus
Tumor suppressor genes ! -Genes that are used to make proteins that inhibit or ! slow-down cell division/reproduction
Genetics of Cell Cycle Regulation
Example: Ras (small G-protein/GTPase)
Examples: p53, retinoblastoma (Rb)
How a Proto-oncogene Becomes an Oncogene
Genes Involved in Regulation of the Cell Cycleras (Proto-oncogene) - Small G-protein (GTPase)! -Mutated in 20-30% of all human cancers! -Similar to G-protein found at GPCRs but not associated! w/ 7-transmembrane receptors! -Mutated *ras can become an oncogene! ! -Signals to cell nucleus even in the absence of ! ! bound growth factor moleculeRb (Tumor suppressor) [G1 --> S checkpoint]! -Mutated in 40% of all human cancers! -Rb protein usually bound to a transcription factor ! protein (E2F) --> Inactive state! -Cyclin D and cdk4/6 phosphorylate Rb protein during ! late G1 causing Rb to release E2F --> Active state! -E2F acts in the nucleus to turn on genes that promote ! progression through the cell cycle (G1 S)
Retinoblastoma/E2F Signaling Pathway
G1-S Checkpoint: G1 Cyclin-Cdk Cell Cycle Clock (Advanced)
During interphase, Rb protein is bound to the E2F transcriptionfactor
Upon phosphorylation (via an active Cdk), Rb releases E2F
E2F travels to the nucleus where it binds to DNA and initiatesthe transcription of genes involved in advancement throughthe cell cycle
Genes Involved in Regulation of the Cell Cyclep53 (Tumor suppressor) ! -Mutated in approximately 50% of all human cancers! -Monitors integrity of DNA; can “stop” the cell cycle andinitiate DNA repair mechanisms if needed ! -If DNA damage is too severe, p53 can activate a cellsuicide pathway (i.e. apoptosis) leading to cell death! -DNA damage to one copy of p53 increases the risk ofdeveloping tumors because a single detrimental mutation inthe “normal” allele will completely inactivate any p53-mediatedpathway! -DNA damage to both copies of p53 can lead to tumor formation because cells lack the ability to repair DNA damage or commit to apoptosis
A Review of the Genetics of Cell Cycle Regulation
The Role of p53 in Normal and Cancerous Cells
(If DNA damage cannot be repaired)
DNA damage activatesp53 which leads to the activation of signalingpathways that lead tocell cycle arrest and/orDNA repair
What Are the Potential Causes of Cancer in Organisms?
Cancer cells ignore molecular “switches” at cell cyclecheckpoints! Results in cell reproduction at inappropriate times and! at accelerated rates
Cells become cancerous (are transformed) due to anaccumulation of mutations in cell cycle regulation genes! Mutations in proto-oncogenes and/or tumor suppressor! genes are especially dangerous
In addition, mutations in growth factor receptor genes produceproteins that are always “on” even without bound ligand molecules
