Answer:

The cell cycle of cell multiplication is regulated by three types of genes, the regulatory genes that control mutations, the generic promoters of cell replication, and genes that inhibit cell replication.

The balance between these three types of gene group are what result in a good multiplication of cells without mutations or neoplastic developments.

The p53 gene is one of the genes that is considered as the guardians of the genome, since it is in charge of corroborating and regulating mutated cells, in this way it inhibits their progression in the cell cycle by putting a stop to not replicate defective genes or genes with alterations.

Explanation:

The p53 gene is one of the most altered genes seen in malignant neoplasms, since by altering our guardian of the genome many mutations overlook and more carcinogenic potential will have neoplastic tissue.

In the three groups of genes that we write, all three have a fundamental roll in the cell cycle, but in order to trigger malignant neoplasms, it is necessary that there be a continuous series of gene mutations in these three groups, it is not enough with the mutation of a single gen.

* Describe at what point in the cell cycle cells begin to divide uncontrollably.
Butoxors [25]

Every cell in the body goes through a life cycle. Cells grow and divide to replace cells that are lost because of normal wear and tear or injury. Different cells grow and die at different rates. Some cells, such as epithelial<span>epithelialA thin layer of epithelial cells that makes up the outer surfaces of the body (the skin) and lines hollow organs, glands and all passages of the respiratory, digestive, reproductive and urinary systems.</span> cells, reproduce quickly. Other cells, like nerve cells, grow slowly. Both normal cells and cancer cells go through a sequence of steps, or phases, when they form new cells. This is called the cell cycle.
