Interphase: G1- S - G2
M phase: Mitosis,
Cytokinesis
Different cell cycle length
Some eukaryotic cell cycle
times
Biochemical events of
cell cycle
G1 phase: Cells synthesize proteins (RNA)
for the DNA replication. Uncondense
chromatin.
S phase: Synthesis of DNA and Histones
G2 phase: Synthesis of a few proteins
(RNA)
M phase: Mitosis and cytokinesis
Chromosome condense, Mitotic spindle,
Contractile ring
Two daughter cells
Three categories of cells:
(1)Cycling cells: Dividing continuously—
Stem cells
(2)G0 cells: Do not divide normally, but
divide when given an appropriate stimulus:
liver cells, lymphocytes
(3)Terminally differentiated cells: Highly
specialized, have lost the ability to divide
until they die: muscle cells, red blood cells,
nerve cells
Embryo cells can transform into Cycling
cells, G0 cells and Terminal cells.
Three principal checkpoints control the
cell cycle in eukaryotes
Cell growth is assessed at the G1
checkpoint
