Cell Cycle: The NIMA kinase joins forces with Cdc2
The NIMA and Cdc2 protein kinases cooperate to regulate mitosis in Aspergillus nidulans. NIMA-related pathways have now begun to emerge in higher eukaryotes.
متن کاملAOSR joins forces with biij
The Asian Oceanian Society of Radiology (AOSR) has joined forces with the Biomedical Imaging and Interventional Journal (biij). For many years, the AOSR has produced its own journal in text form. This journal was entirely due to the enormous energy and hard work freely given by Dr. Sudarshan Aggarwal. He was responsible for much of the financing of the Journal and due to his influence the Journ...
متن کاملProperties and regulation of the cell cycle-specific NIMA protein kinase of Aspergillus nidulans.
NIMA is the protein product of the nimA gene of the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans, required for progression of cells from G2 into mitosis. The protein kinase activity of NIMA, assayed by phosphorylation of beta-casein, varies during the nuclear division cycle, reaching a maximum in late G2 and M. To investigate the biochemical properties of this cell cycle-regulated protein kinase, we...
متن کاملThe mammalian cdc2 protein kinase: mechanisms of regulation during the cell cycle.
Recent experimental evidence has demonstrated the central role of the cdc2 protein kinase in the transition from G2 to M phase in eukaryotic cells. We shall review our knowledge of the mechanisms which coordinate activation of the kinase with cell cycle-specific events in mammalian cells.
متن کاملModeling the cell division cycle: cdc2 and cyclin interactions.
The proteins cdc2 and cyclin form a heterodimer (maturation promoting factor) that controls the major events of the cell cycle. A mathematical model for the interactions of cdc2 and cyclin is constructed. Simulation and analysis of the model show that the control system can operate in three modes: as a steady state with high maturation promoting factor activity, as a spontaneous oscillator, or ...
