Regulation of proliferating cell nuclear antigen ubiquitination in mammalian cells.
After exposure to DNA-damaging agents that block the progress of the replication fork, monoubiquitination of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) mediates the switch from replicative to translesion synthesis DNA polymerases. We show that in human cells, PCNA is monoubiquitinated in response to methyl methanesulfonate and mitomycin C, as well as UV light, albeit with different kinetics, but...
متن کاملCell size regulation in bacteria
Various bacteria such as the canonical gram negative Escherichia coli or the well-studied gram positive Bacillus subtilis divide symmetrically after they approximately double their volume. Their size at division is not constant, but is typically distributed over a narrow range. Here, we propose an analytically tractable model for cell size control, and calculate the cell size and inter-division...

Various rod-shaped bacteria such as the canonical gram negative Escherichia coli or the wellstudied gram positive Bacillus subtilis divide symmetrically after they approximately double their volume. Their size at division is not constant, but is typically distributed over a narrow range. Here, we propose an analytically tractable model for cell size control, and calculate the cell size and inte...
متن کاملFunctional interaction of mammalian target of rapamycin complexes in regulating mammalian cell size and cell cycle
Dysregulation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) kinase pathway is centrally involved in a wide variety of cancers and human genetic diseases. In mammalian cells, mTOR is part of two different kinase complexes: mTORC1 composed of mTOR, raptor and mLST8, and mTORC2 containing mTOR, rictor, sin1 and mLST8. Whereas, mTORC1 is known to be a pivotal regulator of cell size and cell cycle con...
متن کاملThe Regulation of Cell Size
An adult animal consists of cells of vastly different size and activity, but the regulation of cell size remains poorly understood. Recent studies uncovering some of the signaling pathways important for size/growth control, together with the identification of diseases resulting from aberrations in these pathways, have renewed interest in this field. This Review will discuss our current understa...
