G1Ssiirtymää

G1Ssiirtymää is a term used to describe the transition or shift associated with the G1 phase of the cell cycle. The G1 phase, or gap 1 phase, is the first growth phase of the cell cycle, occurring between the end of mitosis and the beginning of DNA synthesis. During G1, the cell grows, synthesizes proteins, and accumulates the necessary components for DNA replication. The G1Ssiirtymää marks the point in the cell cycle where the cell commits to progressing into the S phase, the period of DNA replication.

This critical transition is tightly regulated by a complex network of proteins, including cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). The G1Ssiirtymää is often referred to as the restriction point in mammalian cells. Once a cell passes this point, it is committed to completing the cell cycle and undergoing division, unless external signals or internal damage trigger programmed cell death or a return to quiescence (G0 phase). Factors such as growth factors, nutrients, and cell size influence the timing and occurrence of the G1Ssiirtymää. Dysregulation of this transition can lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation, a hallmark of cancer. Understanding the molecular mechanisms governing G1Ssiirtymää is therefore crucial for comprehending cell growth, development, and disease.
