Regulation of Anaphase Promoting Complex/Cyclosome to Control M Phase Exit
<p>The Anaphase Promoting Complex/Cyclosome (APC/C) is a RING E3 ligase that plays essential roles both within and outside of the cell cycle. At the onset of anaphase, the APC/C targets cyclin B and securin for degradation, initiating chromosome separation and mitotic exit. Regulation of APC/C …

Small Molecule Modulation of the Cell Cycle: Discovery of Anticancer Compounds That Induce G1- and M-Phase Cell Cycle Arrest and Characterization of Their Modes of Action
… of 8H and other phenylcinnamides that induce M-phase cell cycle arrest and cell death in a variety of cell lines. Also presented in an appendix are the summarized results of an attempt to design isozyme-specific inhibitors of the enzyme Vault Parp using a fragment based in silico screening …

Cell cycle of Emiliania huxleyi and its effects on host: virus interactions
… were infected during the G1 , S or G2 + M phase and monitored for 2 hours for adsorption and infection or monitored for 48 hours for virus production, host lysis and host cell cycle. A three fold increase in infection during the G2 + M phase was recorded, however there was no significant …

Mathematical Modeling of the Budding Yeast Cell Cycle
… for the Start transition (passage from G1 phase to S/M phase) in budding yeast. In this thesis, my main goal is to extend Chen's model to include new information about the mechanism controlling Finish (passage from S/M phase to G1 phase). Using laws of biochemical kinetics, I transcribed …

Genomische Instabilität bei der humanen Ovarialtumorzellinie BG-1 durch hormonelle Proliferationsstimulierung
… FACScans konnten die prozentualen Zellzyklusphasenanteile (G1/ G0-, S- und G2/ M- Phase) der BG-1 Zellen zu verschiedenen Zeiten des Wachstums bestimmt werden. Zum Beispiel war der Anteil an Zellen der östradiolstimulierten Zellpopulation in der G2/ M Phase durchgehend um 6-8 % geringer …

Regulation of Chromosome Segregation by the Chromosomal Passenger Complex
… While this phosphorylation is a hallmark of M-phase, its functional significance is enigmatic. In the first part of my thesis, I, with my collaborators, provide a molecular function for this phosphorylation in the chromosomal dissociation of HP1 (heterochromatin protein 1) in M-phase. The …

Effects of selenite on metabolic events during the proliferation of canine mammary tumor cells
… fusion occurred. Selenite modulated the S and M phases during the cell cycle. Selenite increased the activity of the 114 KD protein kinase only during the S phase. Selenite treatment during the M phase resulted in a disappearance of a 53 KD kinase and the appearance of a 47 KD kinase. The …

CDK control of mitotic progression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
… essential functions in triggering entry into M-phase, where they have established roles in nuclear envelope breakdown, chromosome condensation, and Golgi fragmentation. Whether mitotic CDKs have essential functions within mitosis is unclear. The work presented in this thesis indicates that …

A model of the checkpoint response of the cell cycle of frog-egg extracts in the presence of unreplicated DNA
… between growth and DNA replication (interphase), and DNA distribution and cell-division (mitosis or M-phase). This process is regulated by a complex network of biochemical reactions. A core part of this network, called the "Cell Cycle engine" is evolutionarily conserved. The dimer of CDK1 …

The N-terminal Domain of the Y-box Binding Protein YB-1 Plays a Major Role in Cell Proliferation and Apoptosis
… resulted in cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase. In contrast, incubation with the APYB36GFP protein showed a lower proportion of G2/M phase cells. APYB26GFP and APYB77GFP protein incubations also resulted in significant apoptosis, which was confirmed by Annexin V staining, DNA fragmentation …

The Antitumor Agent, Arglabin-DMA, Preferentially Induces Apoptosis in Human Colon Tumor Cells
… two human colon tumor cells in G<sub>2</sub>/M phase increased, indicating a block in either G<sub>2</sub> or M phase. We conclude that Arglabin-DMA has specific cytotoxic effects in two human colon tumor cell lines, and less cytotoxicity to normal cells. It induces arrest at the G<sub>2</sub>/M …

Die Wirksamkeit TRAIL-induzierter Nekroptose gegenüber Tumorstammzellen und zellzyklusarretierten Tumorzellen
… Die Zellen wurden am Übergang der G2- in die M-Phase und der G1/0 in die SPhase arretiert und ebenfalls auf ihre Sensitivität gegen TRAIL-induzierte Nekroptose untersucht. Die Untersuchungen konnten zeigen, dass Holoklone in der G2/M-Phase arretiert werden können und somit ein Modell für ruhende …

PERCEIVED VALUE OF BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING IN FACILITIES OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE
… to be successful in the design and construction phase. However, the benefits have not transcended to the O&M phase. Reluctance to process change, lack of knowledge and lack of documented metrics has prevented owners from adopting BIM to support the O&M phase. The purpose of this research is to …

Analysing The Effects Of Loss Of Sin3 In Drosophila Melanogaster
… This is in part due to misregulation of the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. SIN3 genetically interacts with STG, a protein important for the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. Loss of SIN3 results in downregulation of STG whereas overexpression of STG in a SIN3 knockdown background is able to rescue the …

An electrophysiological study of chromatic processing in the human visual system. Using visual evoked potentials and electroretinograms to study cortical and retinal contributions to human trichromatic vision.
… ERGs, the L:M ratio was close to unity and L/M phase difference was close to 180°. For high temporal frequency ERGs, the L:M ratio was more than unity and L/M phase difference was close to 90°. In addition to this, the variation in L:M ratio across the retinal eccentricity was also examined. …

The Role of the Stress Response Gene Gadd45b in Senescence

Investigating the mitotic roles of Topoisomerase 2 Alpha and Topoisomerase 2 Beta-Binding Protein 1 in the maintenance of chromosome structure and genome stability
… been reported to interact with TOP2A during anaphase. However, most functions of TOPBP1 appear to be independent of Topoisomerase 2 (TOP2), with it acting as a multifunctional scaffold, recruiting factors to the genome during transcription, replication, and the DNA damage response. Recently, a …

Identification and Characterization of Hells-CDCA7, a Nucleosome Remodeling Complex Required for Mitotic Chromosome Structure
… from Xenopus egg extracts. By comparing interphase and M phase, I reveal how the chromatin proteome is affected by the cell cycle. I find that although topoisomerase II associates with chromatin throughout the cell cycle, its catalytic activity is greatly enhanced in mitosis where it can act …

The splicing inhibitor Isoginkgetin leads to defects in multiple phases of the cell cycle
… p53 expressing cells exhibited a remarkable S phase defect while the p53-null subline accumulated with 4C DNA content. Despite the pronounced difference in these isogenic strains, there was no pronounced p53 transcriptional response as assessed by qRT-PCR and preliminary microarray analysis. …
