Cdk concentrations in the cell do not vary much during the cell cycle, but levels of Cdk activity change, in part, because: - cyclin levels change during the cycle. - the Cdks activate the cyclins. - Cdk degradation precedes entry into the next phase of the cell cycle. - the Cdks phosphorylate each other.

The amount of cyclins fluctuates throughout the cell cycle, while the amount of CDKs remains relatively constant. However, the kinase activity of CDKs is stimulated once they are bound to cyclins. Therefore, CDK activity changes throughout the cell cycle and is responsible for driving the cell to the next stage. Based on the figures below, answer the following questions. Menta Wettr cyclin B Cyclin D Cyclin E Cyclin A Cyclin Cdk1 Cyclin Cdk2 Cyclin Cdk4 Which cyclin is at the highest concentration during: G1 phase Bridge between G1 and S phases Bridge between S and G2 phases Bridge between G2 and through mitosis Which cyclin(s) stimulate the following cyclin-dependent kinases? CDK1 CDK2 CDK4

Which of the following about CDK and cyclins during the cell cycle is correct? The amount of various cyclin proteins changes at different stages of the cell cycle Cyclin proteins are kinases that can directly phosphorylate the CDK protein. The amount of the CDK (cyclin-dependent kinase) changes at different stages of the cell cycle. For all cyclin-CDK complexes, binding of the cyclin to the CDK is sufficient for full activation of the cyclin-CDK complex.
