Papagiannakis et al. performed metabolite and cell - cycle measurements in single cells to show that the cell cycle is a higher - order function, which emerges from the collective synchrony between an autonomous metabolic oscillator, a biomass formation oscillator (
early cell cycle), and a biomass segregation oscillator (late cell cycle).

By copying the gene for Spo0F (purple)
early in the
cell - division
cycle and the gene for KinA (green) later in the
cycle, the bacteria assure that the decision to form a spore or divide is made when DNA replication has completed.
There are as many as 14, but the scientists found that cyclin D adds just a single phosphate at one, and only one, of the 14 locations during the
early G1 phase of
cell cycle progression, essentially make 14 different versions of the Rb tumor suppressor.
But in addition to these factors, Hunt, who won a share of the 2001 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine (along with Leland Hartwell and Paul Nurse) for his discovery of cyclin, a key regulator of the
cell cycle, emphasizes
early independence and playfulness.
Earlier this year, Kiyomitsu, working in Cheeseman's lab, saw that during the metaphase
cell cycle step a dividing
cell uses the motor protein dynein and two signals to perfectly align the
cell's mitotic spindle structure in the middle of the
cell.
Hsiou - Chi Liou and colleagues find that c - Rel, a lymphoid - specific member of the NF - kappaB / Rel family of transcriptional factors, is essential for B lymphocyte survival and
cell cycle progression, [i] and that it is important for inducible cytokine and cytokine receptor expression and a key regulator of
early activation and proliferation in T
cells.
Upregulated genes clustered into at least 7 functional groups, including immediate
early genes or transcription factors,
cell -
cycle related genes, stress - responsive protein genes,
cell signaling protein genes,
cell adhesion and
cell surface protein genes, genes involved in translation and protein turnover, and genes encoding metabolic proteins.
We show that DONSON is expressed in progenitor
cells of embryonic human brain and other proliferating tissues, is co-expressed with components of the DNA replication machinery, and that Donson is essential for
early embryonic development in mice as well, suggesting an essential conserved role for DONSON in the
cell cycle.
It was even lower in the
early lesions of I10 mice than in those of age - matched virgin mice, suggesting that the molecular network activated in normal epithelia at involution to arrest the
cell cycle (Figure 1 — figure supplement 3B) also operates in these premalignant
cells.
This issue has confounded
earlier conclusions regarding timing of ISC
cell cycles.
When this
cycle happens over and over again, our
cells become tired and stop listening to insulin, which leads to insulin resistance, an
early warning sign of diabetes.
Moreover, models of experimental carcinogenesis in animals have shown the potential to modify a number of metabolic actions and steps in the
cell cycle in a way that
early events in the cascade of cancer development may be counteracted while stages of progression may be slowed down.
