MCAT Question of the Day


  • Q:

    It is known that wee1 kinase is an enzyme involved in the regulation of the cell cycle. Cells mutated at the wee1 kinase gene, such that resultant protein is non-functional, divide at a smaller size than wild-type cells. What does this suggest about the role of wee1 kinase?

     

    A

    inhibition from the G2 to M phase of the cell cycle

    B

    activation from the G2 to M phase of the cell cycle

    C

    inhibition from the G1 to S phase of the cell cycle

    D

    activation from the G1 to S phase of the cell cycle
