Posttranslational Control of Cdc25 Degradation Terminates Drosophila’s Early Cell-Cycle Program
In most metazoans, early embryonic development is characterized by rapid mitotic divisions that are controlled by maternal mRNAs and proteins that accumulate during oogenesis. These rapid divisions pause at the midblastula transition (MBT), coinciding with a dramatic increase in gene transcription and the degradation of a subset of maternal mRNAs. In Drosophila, the cell-cycle pause is controll...
متن کاملE2F and the molecular mechanisms of early cell-cycle control.
This is an exciting era in cell-cycle research. We are now uncovering the molecular details of a critical pathway which regulates early cell-cycle progression by integrating signals emanating from proteins that drive the cell cycle with the transcription apparatus and the consequent control of target genes. Molecules that function to positively regulate, such as cyclin-cdk complexes, and negati...
متن کاملExpression of the cell cycle control gene, cdc25, is constitutive in the segmental founder cells but is cell-cycle-regulated in the micromeres of leech embryos.
The identifiable cells of leech embryos exhibit characteristic differences in the timing of cell division. To elucidate the mechanisms underlying these cell-specific differences in cell cycle timing, the leech cdc25 gene was isolated because Cdc25 phosphatase regulates the asynchronous cell divisions of postblastoderm Drosophila embryos. Examination of the distribution of cdc25 RNA and the zygo...
متن کاملDual mode of degradation of Cdc25 A phosphatase.
The Cdc25 dual-specificity phosphatases control progression through the eukaryotic cell division cycle by activating cyclin-dependent kinases. Cdc25 A regulates entry into S-phase by dephosphorylating Cdk2, it cooperates with activated oncogenes in inducing transformation and is overexpressed in several human tumors. DNA damage or DNA replication blocks induce phosphorylation of Cdc25 A and its...
متن کاملSequential posttranslational modifications regulate PKC degradation
Cross-talk among different types of posttranslational modifications (PTMs) has emerged as an important regulatory mechanism for protein function. Here we elucidate a mechanism that controls PKCα stability via a sequential cascade of PTMs. We demonstrate that PKCα dephosphorylation decreases its sumoylation, which in turn promotes its ubiquitination and ultimately enhances its degradation via th...
