What is the role of cyclin-dependent kinases in the cell cycle?

Biology
1 answer:
jasenka [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

They initiate various stages of the cell cycle.

Explanation:

Cyclins and cyclin-dependent protein kinases function to control  the cell cycle. A group of cyclins: the G1 cyclins, are synthesized during G1 phase and function  to activate CDPKs which initiate DNA synthesis at the G1/S checkpoint. The cell fails to  progress to S phase if there is no sufficient synthesis of G1 cyclins. After a cell passes through  this point, the G1 cyclins are degraded, allowing for another group of cyclins: the M cyclins  to be synthesized. M cyclins activate a second group of CDPKs which allow  the cell to pass the G2/M control point and into mitosis.

Explain how genes are expressed for a particular reason
ozzi

Each cell expresses, or turns on, only a fraction of its genes. The rest of the genes are repressed, or turned off.

The turned on genes are then first transcribed into messenger RNA by the process of Transcription.

Then the mRNA is Translated into protein by the process called Translation.

This is how the specific genes are expressed.

If a drug that was an inhibitor of PP1 activity was ingested by a person
Reptile [31]

The correct answer is: Glycogen phosphorylase would remain phosphorylated and retain some activity.

Glycogen phosphorylase is directly involved in the regulation of glucose levels since it is a glucose sensor in liver cells: when glucose levels are low, phosphorylase is active and it has PP1 bound to it (phosphatase activity of PP1 is prevented). Therefore, there phosphorylase a will accelerate glycogen breakdown.

12345 [234]

Answer:

The correct option is C: antigen-binding sites

Explanation:

The antibody is shaped much like the letter Y in the English alphabet. It has two antigen binding sites that are identical in nature. The specificity of these sites is determined by the amino acid sequence that makes it up. Antibodies are complementary to these antigen binding sites, and the antibodies have an incredible ability to recognize a great variety of antigens.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
