  • Mitosis Vs. Meiosis
    Mitosis vs. Meiosis In order for organisms to continue growing and/or replace cells that are dead or beyond repair, cells must replicate, or make identical copies of themselves. In order to do this and maintain the proper number of chromosomes, the cells of eukaryotes must undergo mitosis to divide up their DNA. The dividing of the DNA ensures that both the “old” cell (parent cell) and the “new” cells (daughter cells) have the same genetic makeup and both will be diploid, or containing the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. For reproduction of an organism to occur, the original parent cell will undergo Meiosis to create 4 new daughter cells with a slightly different genetic makeup in order to ensure genetic diversity when fertilization occurs. The four daughter cells will be haploid, or containing half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. The difference between the two processes is that mitosis occurs in non-reproductive cells, or somatic cells, and meiosis occurs in the cells that participate in sexual reproduction, or germ cells. The Somatic Cell Cycle (Mitosis) The somatic cell cycle consists of 3 phases: interphase, m phase, and cytokinesis. 1. Interphase: Interphase is considered the non-dividing phase of the cell cycle. It is not a part of the actual process of mitosis, but it readies the cell for mitosis. It is made up of 3 sub-phases: • G1 Phase: In G1, the cell is growing. In most organisms, the majority of the cell’s life span is spent in G1. • S Phase: In each human somatic cell, there are 23 pairs of chromosomes; one chromosome comes from the mother and one comes from the father.

In order to achieve proper chromosome replication and segregation, sister chromatids must be recognized as such and kept together until their separation. This process of cohesion is mainly achieved through proteinaceous linkages of cohesin complexes, which are loaded on the sister chromatids as they are generated during S phase. Cohesion between sister chromatids must be fully removed at anaphase to allow chromosome segregation. Other (non-proteinaceous) sources of cohesion between sister chromatids consist of DNA linkages or sister chromatid intertwines. DNA linkages are a natural consequence of DNA replication, but must be timely resolved before chromosome segregation to avoid the arising of DNA lesions and genome instability, a hallmark of cancer development. As complete resolution of sister chromatid intertwines only occurs during chromosome segregation, it is not clear whether DNA linkages that persist in mitosis are simply an unwanted leftover or whether they have a functional role.

  • Meiosis I and Meiosis II; Life Cycles
    Meiosis I and Meiosis II; Life Cycles Meiosis functions to reduce the number of chromosomes to one half. Each daughter cell that is produced will have one half as many chromosomes as the parent cell. Meiosis is part of the sexual process because gametes (sperm, eggs) have one half the chromosomes as diploid (2N) individuals. Phases of Meiosis There are two divisions in meiosis; the first division is meiosis I: the number of cells is doubled but the number of chromosomes is not. This results in 1/2 as many chromosomes per cell. The second division is meiosis II: this division is like mitosis; the number of chromosomes does not get reduced. The phases have the same names as those of mitosis. Meiosis I: prophase I (2N), metaphase I (2N), anaphase I (N+N), and telophase I (N+N) Meiosis II: prophase II (N+N), metaphase II (N+N), anaphase II (N+N+N+N), and telophase II (N+N+N+N) (Works Cited See) *3 Meiosis I (Works Cited See) *1 1. Prophase I Events that occur during prophase of mitosis also occur during prophase I of meiosis. The chromosomes coil up, the nuclear membrane begins to disintegrate, and the centrosomes begin moving apart. The two chromosomes may exchange fragments by a process called crossing over. When the chromosomes partially separate in late prophase, until they separate during anaphase resulting in chromosomes that are mixtures of the original two chromosomes. 2. Metaphase I Bivalents (tetrads) become aligned in the center of the cell and are attached to spindle fibers.

  • CDK Regulation of Meiosis: Lessons from S. Cerevisiae and S. Pombe
    G C A T T A C G G C A T genes Review CDK Regulation of Meiosis: Lessons from S. cerevisiae and S. pombe Anne M. MacKenzie and Soni Lacefield * Department of Biology, Indiana University, 1001 E. Third Street, Bloomington, IN 47405, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-812-856-2429 Received: 16 May 2020; Accepted: 26 June 2020; Published: 29 June 2020 Abstract: Meiotic progression requires precise orchestration, such that one round of DNA replication is followed by two meiotic divisions. The order and timing of meiotic events is controlled through the modulation of the phosphorylation state of proteins. Key components of this phospho-regulatory system include cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) and its cyclin regulatory subunits. Over the past two decades, studies in budding and fission yeast have greatly informed our understanding of the role of CDK in meiotic regulation. In this review, we provide an overview of how CDK controls meiotic events in both budding and fission yeast. We discuss mechanisms of CDK regulation through post-translational modifications and changes in the levels of cyclins. Finally, we highlight the similarities and differences in CDK regulation between the two yeast species. Since CDK and many meiotic regulators are highly conserved, the findings in budding and fission yeasts have revealed conserved mechanisms of meiotic regulation among eukaryotes. Keywords: meiosis; Cyclin-Dependent Kinase; CDK; cyclin; APC/C; budding yeast; fission yeast; chromosome segregation 1. Introduction Control of the eukaryotic cell cycle occurs through the modulation of phosphorylation states of proteins that trigger specific events. At the forefront of this phospho-regulation are the cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs), whose oscillatory activity results in a large number of phosphorylations that change the activation state of their substrates [1,2].

  • The Anaphase-Promoting Complex Regulates the Degradation of the Inner Nuclear Membrane Protein Mps3
    Published Online: 8 February, 2019 | Supp Info: http://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201808024 Downloaded from jcb.rupress.org on February 13, 2019 ARTICLE The anaphase-promoting complex regulates the degradation of the inner nuclear membrane protein Mps3 Bailey A. Koch1, Hui Jin1, Robert J. Tomko Jr.2,andHong-GuoYu1 The nucleus is enclosed by the inner nuclear membrane (INM) and the outer nuclear membrane (ONM). While the ONM is continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), the INM is independent and separates the nucleoplasm from the ER lumen. Turnover of ER proteins has been well characterized by the ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD) pathway, but very little is known about turnover of resident INM proteins. Here we show that the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C), an E3 ubiquitin ligase, regulates the degradation of Mps3, a conserved integral protein of the INM. Turnover of Mps3 requires the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme Ubc7, but was independent of the known ERAD ubiquitin ligases Doa10 and Hrd1 as well as the recently discovered Asi1–Asi3 complex. Using a genetic approach, we have found that Cdh1, a coactivator of APC/C, modulates Mps3 stability. APC/C controls Mps3 degradation through Mps3’s N terminus, which resides in the nucleoplasm and possesses two putative APC/C-dependent destruction motifs. Accumulation of Mps3 at the INM impairs nuclear morphological changes and cell division. Our findings therefore reveal an unexpected mechanism of APC/C-mediated protein degradation at the INM that coordinates nuclear morphogenesis and cell cycle progression. Introduction The nucleus is enclosed by two membranes that demarcate the actions of an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme and an E3 ubiq- nucleoplasm from the cytoplasm.

  • Regulation of Mitotic Exit by Cell Cycle Checkpoints: Lessons from Saccharomyces Cerevisiae
    G C A T T A C G G C A T genes Review Regulation of Mitotic Exit by Cell Cycle Checkpoints: Lessons From Saccharomyces cerevisiae Laura Matellán and Fernando Monje-Casas * Centro Andaluz de Biología Molecular y Medicina Regenerativa (CABIMER), Spanish National Research Council (CSIC)—University of Seville—University Pablo de Olavide, Avda, Américo Vespucio, 24, 41092 Sevilla, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 14 January 2020; Accepted: 11 February 2020; Published: 12 February 2020 Abstract: In order to preserve genome integrity and their ploidy, cells must ensure that the duplicated genome has been faithfully replicated and evenly distributed before they complete their division by mitosis. To this end, cells have developed highly elaborated checkpoints that halt mitotic progression when problems in DNA integrity or chromosome segregation arise, providing them with time to fix these issues before advancing further into the cell cycle. Remarkably, exit from mitosis constitutes a key cell cycle transition that is targeted by the main mitotic checkpoints, despite these surveillance mechanisms being activated by specific intracellular signals and acting at different stages of cell division. Focusing primarily on research carried out using Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model organism, the aim of this review is to provide a general overview of the molecular mechanisms by which the major cell cycle checkpoints control mitotic exit and to highlight the importance of the proper regulation of this process for the maintenance of genome stability during the distribution of the duplicated chromosomes between the dividing cells. Keywords: mitosis; checkpoint; DNA damage; chromosome segregation; aneuploidy 1.
