Zellzyklus

Any growing organism – regardless of it being single- or multi-cellular – rests upon the reiteration the growth and division of existing cells under favorable conditions. During each round of this process, the cell cycles through an ordered series of events in which its genetic information is duplicated and then splits up into two cells. These events are tightly regulated and certain checkpoints must be passed in order for the cell cycle to be completed. The loss of control of these processes is a hallmark of cancer.

The cell cycle is split up into four major phases based on the events unfolding in the cell. During the first gap phase (G1) the proteins are produced that are essential for DNA replication. The genetic information is then being replicated during the synthesis (S) phase. In the second gap phase (G2) all the components that are necessary for the separation of the duplicated DNA during the subsequent mitosis (M phase). Cells that are not actively dividing are considered to be in a quiescent state in the resting phase G0. Two checkpoints between G1/S and G2/M phase must be passed in order for the cell cycle to progress.

Once replication, DNA replication must be finished. Therefore, the major checkpoint in the cell cycle is the restriction (R) point between G1 and S phases, prior to DNA duplication, at which the cycle progresses depending on mitogenic or inhibitory factors such as DNA damage and signals from various signaling pathways. A second checkpoint is at the intersection between G2 and M phases. Progression from one phase to another is controlled by cyclin dependent kinases (CDK) and their activators, cyclins. Latter proteins are unstable and their cellular concentration cycles throughout the cell cycle. Accordingly, specific cyclin-CDK complexes are characteristic for the different cell cycle phases. In addition, their activity is further modulated by CDK inhibitors. Collectively, these factors maintain balance on a cellular level and beyond.

Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human breast carcinoma tissue using CDC2 (Ab-15) antibody (E021236).

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the Ser/Thr protein kinase family. This protein is a catalytic subunit of the highly conserved protein kinase complex known as M-phase promoting factor (MPF), which is essential for G1/S and G2/M phase transitions of eukaryotic cell cycle. Mitotic cyclins stably associate with this protein and function as regulatory subunits. The kinase activity... More...

CCNB1 - Cyclin B1

Immunohistochemistry of Human liver cancer using CCNB1 Polyclonal Antibody at dilution of 1:20

The protein encoded by this gene is a regulatory protein involved in mitosis. The gene product complexes with p34(cdc2) to form the maturation-promoting factor (MPF). Two alternative transcripts have been found, a constitutively expressed transcript and a cell cycle-regulated transcript, that is expressed predominantly during G2/M phase. The different transcripts result from the use of... More...

CCNE1 - Cyclin E1

Immunofluorescence analysis of A549 cells, using Cyclin E1 antibody.

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the highly conserved cyclin family, whose members are characterized by a dramatic periodicity in protein abundance through the cell cycle. Cyclins function as regulators of CDK kinases. Different cyclins exhibit distinct expression and degradation patterns which contribute to the temporal coordination of each mitotic event. This cyclin forms a complex... More...

In mammalian cells, 2 broad groups of centromere-interacting proteins have been described: constitutively binding centromere proteins and 'passenger,' or transiently interacting, proteins (reviewed by Choo, 1997). The constitutive proteins include CENPA (centromere protein A\; MIM 117139), CENPB (MIM 117140), CENPC1 (MIM 117141), and CENPD (MIM 117142). The term 'passenger proteins' encompasses... More...

RBL2 - p130

Immunohistochemical staining of mouse tissue using anti-pRb2/p130 antiserum. The staining shows the location of pRb2/p130 in developing mouse tissue. Other detection systems should yield similar results. Sections were cut at 5-7 um, mounted on glass and dried overnight at 37°C. All sections were deparaffinized in Xylene, rehydrated through a graded alcohol series and washed in phosphatebuffered saline (PBS). PBS was used for all subsequent washes and for antiserum dilution. Tissue sections were quenched sequentially in 0.5% hydrogen peroxide and blocked with diluted 10% normal goat anti-rabbit serum. Slides were incubated at 20° C for 1 h with rabbit anti-pRb2/p130 (1:500) dilution, washed, and then reacted with diluted goat anti-rabbit biotinylated antibody for 30 min. Slides were then reacted with streptavidin-peroxidase conjugate for 30 min at 20°C. Diaminobenzidine was used as the final chromogen. Negative controls for each tissue section were prepared by substituting the primary antiserum with pre-immune serum.
