4. Cell Cycle is a very
importan process in
which cell are able to
self- reproduce and
preserve their
genetic material
The Cell Cycle is
composed by 5
phases,
G1,S,G2,Mitosis and
G0
6. SMALL SIGNALING MOLECULES
GIVES GREEN LIGHT FOR CELL
DIVISION
1. c-di-GMP controls the cell cycle
in a similar way as a traffic
light works. In the absence of
c-di-GMP in the cell, the light
shows red. This indicates that
the cell will have to remain in
the first phase of the cell
cycle.
7. SMALL SIGNALING MOLECULES
GIVES GREEN LIGHT FOR CELL
DIVISION
If the c-di-GMP level
increases, the light
switches to green
and the cell enters
the next phase.
8. SMALL SIGNALING MOLECULES
GIVES GREEN LIGHT FOR CELL
DIVISION
However, as soon as c-di-GMP is
produced, it binds to the enzyme,
thus altering its structure and mode
of action. Subsequently, this
blockade is lifted and the bacterial
chromosome can be copied.

DIVISION
Student opinion.
I think this is important
because, they are many
thing´s that are still a
mystery, regarding all this
process , and discovering this
new molecules will help us
reach the goal of
understanding this whole
process
11. How dividing cells end up the same
size
This finding goes against
recent publications
suggesting cells always
add the same amount of
mass, with some random
fluctuations, before
beginning division.
12. How dividing cells end up the same
size
The team was looking at
how genes on circular
pieces of DNA called
plasmids segregate when
cells divide by tagging the
genes with different
fluorescent colors.
13. How dividing cells end up the same
size
The setup allows
researchers to watch
hundreds of cells go
through divisions over
dozens of generations
and was key in seeing
the baffling
oscillations.
14. How dividing cells end up the same
size
Student Opinion
This investigation is import
because will help us, in a
better understanding of
the cell reproductive
system and how mom
cells, are a main fact for
future studies.
16. Medical Utility
These studies represent a
good advance to reveal
new data, about the
process of cell
reproduction, that may
be used for future studies
of their main related
pathology, the cancer.
17. Medical Utility
Discovering new
molecules that are
involved in the process
is very important
because, ass better we
know the mechanism ,
we will be able to repair
it and make it better.
18. Medical Utility
Most of the cancer start during
the cell cycle, and the
oportunity to repair this is by
studying this process and keep
discovering new information,
that will lead us to the cure.
