LECTURE 9: MITOSIS AND CYTOKINESIS

INTRODUCTION
1.

Cell division is accomplished by

MITOSIS = division of chromosomes and CYTOKINESIS = division of the cytoplasm

2.

3.

Mitosis is the division of somatic cells in which the appropriate number of chromosomes is maintained A somatic cell is a body cell of an organism or a cell that is not involved in reproduction of a new organism. Somatic cells divide to recreate themselves

4.

Cytokinesis is division of the

cytoplasm to produce two daughter cells,

5.

usually begun during telophase Difference between animals and plants: plants are divided by the formation of a cell plate (=pelat), where animal cells are divided through the formation of a cell cleavage (=belahan). Cell plate materials originate in the golgi complex.

When the somatic cell has its complete complement of chromosomes it is said to be in the diploid condition At the end of mitosis daughter cells are diploid

Terminology Genome : cells genetic information Somatic : body cells Gametes : reproductive cells (sperm and egg cells) Chromosomes : DNA molecules Diploid (2n) : 2 sets of chromosomes Haploid (1n) : 1 set of chromosomes

Coordination of Mitosis and Cytokinesis

Cell Division demands coordination of DNA replication (Mitosis) and division of the cytoplasm (Cytokinesis). Cell Division at cellular level

INTERPHASE

PROPHASE

METAPHASE

Precisely dividing the duplicated chromosomes has the consequence of providing each new cell with an identical and complete set of genetic instructions.

Mitosis Precisely and Evenly Divides Duplicated Chromosomes

Cytokinesis is the process of cell division and it is distinct and separable from mitosis.

DNA is Packaged into Chromosomes

duplicated chromosome
DNA in the cell is virtually always associated with proteins.

The packaging is impressive 2 meters of human DNA fit into a sphere about 0.000005 meters in diameter.

DNA is Condensed into Visible Chromosomes Only For Brief Periods in the Life of a Cell

95% of the time, chromosomes are like this.

Easily visible chromosomes are apparent perhaps 5% of the time in an actively growing cell and less in a non-growing cell.

most condensed State

Note that almost all chromosomes come in homologous pairs.

From Birth to Rebirth, a Cell Progresses Through Characteristic Stages That Constitute the Cell Cycle

In multicellular organisms like us, progress through the cell cycle is carefully regulated.

The Cell Cycle

1.

Interphase (90% of cycle)

G1 phase~ growth S phase~ synthesis of DNA G2 phase~ preparation for cell division

2. 3. 4.

Mitotic phase Mitosis~ nuclear division Cytokinesis~ cytoplasm division

INTERPHASE - It is the time between divisions

PROPHASE, METAPHASE, ANAPHASE,TELOPHASE

1. Prophase:

Chromosomes condense and become visible, each Chromosome contains several cm of DNA condensed into 5 10 micrometers. During the S Phase each chromosome has been duplicated into a sister chromatid. (A chromotid is one of the two halves of duplicated chromosomes)

S Phase = synthesis of DNA

Prometaphase

Nuclear membrane fragments Spindle interaction with chromosomes Kinetochore develops

KRT-2008

32

2. Metaphase:
1. Chromosomes line up along the cell equator. 2. The cell itself condenses and the chromosomes are more clearly visible than during any other phase of mitosis

Centrosomes at opposite poles Centromeres are aligned (=disejajarkan) Kinetochores of sister chromatids attached to microtubules (spindle)

KRT-2008

33

3. Anaphase
1. is defined as the sister chromatids begin to separate 2. By now each chromatid is an independent and functional chromosome 3. The chromosomes are pulled toward opposite poles. Anaphase is complete when a complete set of chromosomes reaches each pole. Paired centromeres separate; sister chromatids liberated Chromosomes move to opposite poles Each pole now has a complete set of chromosomes

KRT-2008

4. Telophase:
1.

2.

The final stage of mitosis, chromosomes uncoil (= mengurai) into chomatin threads A nuclear envelope forms around each set of chromosomes, nucleoli appear

Daughter nuclei form Nuclear envelopes arise Chromatin becomes less coiled (= menggulung) Two new nuclei complete mitosis

Counting chromosomes and chromatids

n = haploid number of chromosomes

Example: the humans have 23 different chromosomes (n=23). Diploid cells have 2n chromosome #. Human diploid cells, have 46 chromosomes (2n=46).

c = number of chromatids in unreplicated (G1) haploid state.

Frequency of mitosis varies between species or even with location within an organismskin cell versus nerve cells for example, but under similar conditions the length of the cell cycle is constant for a particular type of cell. The rate and frequency of mitosis in a multicelluar organism must be controlled The cell requires a protein called maturation promoting factor (MPF). Scientists are still learning how MPF works and controls the cell mitosis.

Read about the effects of Colchicine and the condition of polypoidy When mitosis occurs each daughter cell receives exactly the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent When a haploid cell undergoes mitosis, two haploid cells are produced.
