Novak1993 - Cell cycle M-phase control

ABSTRACT: Novak1993 - Cell cycle M-phase control The model reproduces Figure 9 of the paper. Please note that active MPF and cyclin concentrations in the paper are given relative to total cdc2 concentration (100nM). Active MPF (dimer_p) is the cyclin-cdc2 complex that is phosphorylated at Thr161. The earlier versions of the model was successfully tested on MathSBML and Jarnac, and the current version was checked in Copasi. This model is described in the article: Numerical analysis of a comprehensive model of M-phase control in Xenopus oocyte extracts and intact embryos. Novak B, Tyson JJ. J. Cell. Sci. 1993 Dec; 106 ( Pt 4): 1153-1168 Abstract: To contribute to a deeper understanding of M-phase control in eukaryotic cells, we have constructed a model based on the biochemistry of M-phase promoting factor (MPF) in Xenopus oocyte extracts, where there is evidence for two positive feedback loops (MPF stimulates its own production by activating Cdc25 and inhibiting Wee1) and a negative feedback loop (MPF stimulates its own destruction by indirectly activating the ubiquitin pathway that degrades its cyclin subunit). To uncover the full dynamical possibilities of the control system, we translate the regulatory network into a set of differential equations and study these equations by graphical techniques and computer simulation. The positive feedback loops in the model account for thresholds and time lags in cyclin-induced and MPF-induced activation of MPF, and the model can be fitted quantitatively to these experimental observations. The negative feedback loop is consistent with observed time lags in MPF-induced cyclin degradation. Furthermore, our model indicates that there are two possible mechanisms for autonomous oscillations. One is driven by the positive feedback loops, resulting in phosphorylation and abrupt dephosphorylation of the Cdc2 subunit at an inhibitory tyrosine residue. These oscillations are typical of oocyte extracts. The other type is driven by the negative feedback loop, involving rapid cyclin turnover and negligible phosphorylation of the tyrosine residue of Cdc2. The early mitotic cycles of intact embryos exhibit such characteristics. In addition, by assuming that unreplicated DNA interferes with M-phase initiation by activating the phosphatases that oppose MPF in the positive feedback loops, we can simulate the effect of addition of sperm nuclei to oocyte extracts, and the lengthening of cycle times at the mid-blastula transition of intact embryos.

Numerical analysis of a comprehensive model of M-phase control in Xenopus oocyte extracts and intact embryos.

To contribute to a deeper understanding of M-phase control in eukaryotic cells, we have constructed a model based on the biochemistry of M-phase promoting factor (MPF) in Xenopus oocyte extracts, where there is evidence for two positive feedback loops (MPF stimulates its own production by activating Cdc25 and inhibiting Wee1) and a negative feedback loop (MPF stimulates its own destruction by indirectly activating the ubiquitin pathway that degrades its cyclin subunit).

Project description:Goldbeter1991 - Min Mit Oscil Minimal cascade model for the mitotic oscillator involving cyclin and cdc2 kinase. This model has been generated by MathSBML 2.4.6 (14-January-2005) 14-January-2005 18:33:39.806932. This model is described in the article: A minimal cascade model for the mitotic oscillator involving cyclin and cdc2 kinase. Goldbeter A. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 1991; 88(20):9107-11 Abstract: A minimal model for the mitotic oscillator is presented. The model, built on recent experimental advances, is based on the cascade of post-translational modification that modulates the activity of cdc2 kinase during the cell cycle. The model pertains to the situation encountered in early amphibian embryos, where the accumulation of cyclin suffices to trigger the onset of mitosis. In the first cycle of the bicyclic cascade model, cyclin promotes the activation of cdc2 kinase through reversible dephosphorylation, and in the second cycle, cdc2 kinase activates a cyclin protease by reversible phosphorylation. That cyclin activates cdc2 kinase while the kinase triggers the degradation of cyclin has suggested that oscillations may originate from such a negative feedback loop [Félix, M. A., Labbé, J. C., Dorée, M., Hunt, T. & Karsenti, E. (1990) Nature (London) 346, 379-382]. This conjecture is corroborated by the model, which indicates that sustained oscillations of the limit cycle type can arise in the cascade, provided that a threshold exists in the activation of cdc2 kinase by cyclin and in the activation of cyclin proteolysis by cdc2 kinase. The analysis shows how miototic oscillations may readily arise from time lags associated with these thresholds and from the delayed negative feedback provided by cdc2-induced cyclin degradation. A mechanism for the origin of the thresholds is proposed in terms of the phenomenon of zero-order ultrasensitivity previously described for biochemical systems regulated by covalent modification.

Project description:Goldbeter1991 - Min Mit Oscil, Expl Inact This model represents the inactive forms of CDC-2 Kinase and Cyclin Protease as separate species, unlike the ODEs in the published paper, in which the equations for the inactive forms are substituted into the equations for the active forms using a mass conservation rule M+MI=1,X+XI=1. Mass is still conserved in this model through the explicit reactions MMI and XXI. The terms in the kinetic laws are identical to the corresponding terms in the kinetic laws in the published paper.
