  2. G1 phase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G1_phase

    G 1 phase together with the S phase and G 2 phase comprise the long growth period of the cell cycle cell division called interphase that takes place before cell division in mitosis (M phase). [1] During G 1 phase, the cell grows in size and synthesizes mRNA and protein that are required for DNA synthesis. Once the required proteins and growth ...

  3. Cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle

    The eukaryotic cell cycle consists of four distinct phases: G 1 phase, S phase (synthesis), G 2 phase (collectively known as interphase) and M phase (mitosis and cytokinesis). M phase is itself composed of two tightly coupled processes: mitosis, in which the cell's nucleus divides, and cytokinesis, in which the cell's cytoplasm and cell membrane divides forming two daughter cells.

  4. Cell cycle checkpoint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle_checkpoint

    However, Cyclin D:Cdk 4/6 also phosphorylates p107 and p130, a process which releases their bind from E2F 4 and 5 (which then escape to the cytoplasm), and allowing for E2F 1–3 to bind to the DNA and initiate transcription of Cyclin E. [10] Rb proteins maintain their mono-phosphorylated state during early G1 phase, while Cyclin E is ...

  5. Interphase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interphase

    Interphase includes G1, S, and G2 phases. Mitosis and cytokinesis, however, are separate from interphase. DNA double-strand breaks can be repaired during interphase by two principal processes. [5] The first process, non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), can join the two broken ends of DNA in the G1, S and G2 phases of interphase.

  6. G1/S transition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G1/S_transition

    The G1/S transition is a stage in the cell cycle at the boundary between the G1 phase, in which the cell grows, and the S phase, during which DNA is replicated. [1] It is governed by cell cycle checkpoints to ensure cell cycle integrity and the subsequent S phase can pause in response to improperly or partially replicated DNA. [ 2 ]

  7. Restriction point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restriction_point

    Steps of the cell cycle. The restriction point occurs between the G 1 and S phases of interphase.. The restriction point (R), also known as the Start or G 1 /S checkpoint, is a cell cycle checkpoint in the G 1 phase of the animal cell cycle at which the cell becomes "committed" to the cell cycle, and after which extracellular signals are no longer required to stimulate proliferation. [1]

  8. G1 and G1/S cyclins- budding yeast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G1_and_G1/S_cyclins...

    These cyclins oscillate during the cell cycle - rise in late G1 and fall in early S phase. The primary function of G1/S cyclin-Cdk complexes is to trigger progression through Start and initiate the processes leading to DNA replication , principally by shutting down the various braking systems that suppress S-phase Cdk activity in G1.

  9. Neuronal cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuronal_cell_cycle

    After G1, the cells enter S phase during which the DNA is replicated. After S, the cell will enter G2 where the proteins required for mitosis to occur are synthesized. Unlike most cell types however, neurons are generally considered incapable of proliferating once they are differentiated, as they are in the adult nervous system .
