divide more frequently than usual

divide more frequently than usual

If a mutation that caused a relay protein for a growth factor receptor to be stuck in the shape it normally had when growth factors were bound, then you would expect cells with this mutation to

divide more frequently than usual

You have a cell line that does not have density-dependent inhibition. You mutate a receptor for brain-derived growth factor in the cell line. The mutation makes the receptor take the shape it would be in if the growth factor were bound to the receptor. In other words, the receptor becomes an oncogene. Compared to cells of this line without the mutation, the cells with the oncogene would

divide more frequently than usual
