To activate the kinases, cyclins connect to them. The activity of cyclin-dependent kinases changes with cyclin concentration. At the G2 phase, Cyclin and a Cdk unite to start mitosis (M phase). This mixture produces MPF (maturation-promoting factor), which encourages the cell to continue mitosis through the M phase. The cyclin is broken down at the G1 phase, and the Cdk is recycled.

<h3>What about cyclins?</h3>
  • A family of regulatory proteins known as cyclins manages how the cell cycle develops.
  • Cyclins cause the phosphorylation of cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs), which regulate the cell cycle.
  • A target protein will attach to a complex made up of a cyclin and a CDK, and the complex will phosphorylate the protein.
  • Cyclins collaborate with an enzyme family known as the cyclin-dependent kinases to control the cell cycle's activities (Cdks).
  • A Cdk that is not bound to a cyclin is inactive, but when it is, it becomes a functioning enzyme that can alter target proteins.
  • By phosphorylating and inactivating target substrates, cyclins are the regulatory subunits of holoenzyme CDK complexes that control progression through cell-cycle checkpoints.
  • Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are protein kinases that require a distinct subunit - a cyclin - that provides domains necessary for enzymatic action.
  • The cyclins associate with various CDKs to offer specificity of function at various stages during the cell cycle.
  • In response to various extracellular and intracellular signals, CDKs modify transcription and play significant roles in the regulation of cell division.

9. What are mutations, and how do they increase the genetic variation within a species?
leva [86]

Mutations are changes that occurs in our DNA sequence, either due to mistakes when the DNA is copied or as the result of environmental factors such as UV light and cigarette smoke.

They increase the genetic variation within a species because they can create entirely new alleles in a population, random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring.
