Hysteresis drives cell-cycle transitions in Xenopus laevis egg extracts.
Cells progressing through the cell cycle must commit irreversibly to mitosis without slipping back to interphase before properly segregating their chromosomes. A mathematical model of cell-cycle progression in cell-free egg extracts from frog predicts that irreversible transitions into and out of mitosis are driven by hysteresis in the molecular control system. Hysteresis refers to toggle-like ...

متن کاملDNA replication and cell cycle control in Xenopus egg extracts.
Aspects of the regulation of DNA replication and mitosis have been studied using a cell-free extract of Xenopus eggs. The extract is characterized by repeated cycles of DNA replication and mitosis, which are accompanied by periodic synthesis and degradation of cyclins as well as fluctuations in the level of Histone H1 kinase activity. DNA replication in this system is dependent upon the formati...
متن کاملPreparation and Fractionation of Xenopus laevis Egg Extracts
Crude and fractionated Xenopus egg extracts can be used to provide ingredients for reconstituting cellular processes for morphological and biochemical analysis. Egg lysis and differential centrifugation are used to prepare the crude extract which in turn in used to prepare fractionated extracts and light membrane preparations.
