Learning objectives
Explain the impact of point mutations and how they can modifygenes and produce changes in phenotypes.
What types of mutations can lead to cancer? Give some examples.
Describe how the gene BRAFis involved in the regulation of the cellcycle
Describe how the molecule vemurafenib is used in the treatment ofmelanoma
Describe how the protein MPF is involved in the regulation of thecell cycle
Explain the consequences of uncontrolled cell division, and howgrowth factors are involved in control of the cell cycle
Diagram how selection could lead to proliferation of malignantcancerous cells.

each chromosome would be stained the same color and each chromosome type would be
represented by two chromosome.

Mitosis-promoting factor (MPF)
Cyclin is a
regulatoryprotein
Cyclin-dependent
kinase (Cdk) catalyzesphosphorylation of other
proteins to start mitosis

Pass checkpoints if: chromosomes have
replicated successfully DNA is undamaged
activated MPFis present
cell size is adequate nutrients are sufficient social signals are present
DNA is undamaged

(a) Benign tumor
Normal cells
Blood vessel
enign tumor cells
may continue to
divide, but are not
invasive (they do not
spread from tumor)
Lymphatic vessel

(b) Malignant tumor
Malignant tumor cells
divide and spread toadjacent tissues and to
distant tissues through
lymphatic vessels and
blood vessels
Lymphatic vessel
Blood vessel
New tumor that has
formed in distant
tissue by metastasis

One general common characteristic of the most
serious cancers might be ________.
A. the ability of defective cells to drain surrounding
cells or tissues of nutrients
B. the speed at which defective cells divide
C. the ability of defective cells to relocate to
other tissues
D. the location of the cancer

Growth
factors
1. Growth factors
arrive from other
cells.
2. Growth factors
cause increase in
cyclin and E2F
concentrations.
3. Cyclin binds to
Cdk; Cdk is
phosphorylated.
Rb inactivates E2F
by binding to it.

4. Cdk is activated
by dephosphorylation.
It catalyzes
phosphorylation of Rb.
5. Rb releases
E2F.
6. E2F enters
nucleus and
triggers production
of S-phase proteins.
