12. MECHANISM 3…. Mutation and rearrangements:- a) FLT3 (coding FMS like tyrosine kinase 3) amplified in myeloid leukaemias b) PDGF receptor point mutation results in gliomas, leukaemias c) cKIT (with tyrosine kinase activity) mutation results in GIST,leukaemias.
13.
14. C2) Less commonly due to point mutations... viz,JAK2 point mutation results in Polycythemia vera
15. C3) Alterations in nonreceptor tyrosine kinase Mostly due to translocations..
22. G2-M CHECKPOINT : Monitors the completion of DNA replication and checks whether the cell can safely initiate mitosis and separate sister chromatids. Arrest of cell cycle at this checkpoint involves both p53 -dependent and p53-independent mechanisms. Defects in G1-S and G2-M transition checkpoints are a major cause of genetic instability in cancer cells.
