Mammalian Cdk inhibitor proteins (CKIs) can be grouped into two families based on their structural and functional differences. The Cip/Kip family proteins (e.g. p21) have a broad binding specificity. These proteins bind preferentially to already formed cyclin–
Cdk complexes and thus enhance complex formation. However, they inhibit the kinase activity of most complexes (e.g. S-Cdks), except in the case of G
1
-Cdk complexes where no inhibition occurs. Consequently, Cip/Kip family proteins have an overall positive effect on Cdk4/6 activity due to their help in bringing the subunits together. In contrast, the inhibitors of the INK4 family (e.g. p16) bind only to the Cdk subunit of G

-
Cdks and prevent binding of both the G

cyclins and the Cip/Kip family CKIs. Based solely on these findings, would you expect p16 to activate (A) or inactivate (I) the S-
Cdks in the presence of limited amounts of p21?

Question 20
2.5 / 2.5 pts
Mutant Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells that lack the gene encoding securin can divide more or less normally by mitosis, without significant chromosome segregation defects. Cells harboring a nondegradable version of securin, on the other hand, arrest in metaphase as expected, since they cannot activate separase to enter anaphase. Similarly, cells lacking Cdc20 arrest in metaphase, since they cannot activate APC/C. Finally, cells lacking both securin and Cdc20 arrest in anaphase: they manage to separate sister chromatids, but do not progress much further. These results suggest that in wild-type cells, …
degradation of securin is necessary to trigger sister-chromatid separation.
degradation of securin is sufficient to trigger sister-chromatid separation.
Cdc20–APC/C is NOT necessary for sister-chromatid separation.

Question 27

In the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the proteins Cut1 and Cut2 form a complex that is catalytically inactive. At the onset of anaphase, Cut2 is polyubiquitylated
by a large E3 complex containing Cut4, Cut9, Cut23, and other proteins, and is subsequently destroyed. Cut1 then cleaves Rad21, a non-SMC component of a complex that also contains two SMC proteins, thus allowing sister-chromatid separation.
Mutations in the cut genes lead to the cut phenotype, in which the cell attempts cytokinesis without chromosome segregation. Indicate which of the following proteins or
protein complexes corresponds to or contains the product of the genes cut1 (A), cut2 (B), cut4 (C), and rad21 (D). Your answer would be a four-letter string composed of letters A to D only, e.g. DCAB.
