Cards in this deck (48)

  1. 1kinesinMT + end motor protein
    Many types (> 14 known classes)
    Heavy chains
    ATPase activity and bind MTs
    Light chains recognize cargo
    Anterograde movement
    ATP hydrolysis causes conformational changes which results in movement
  2. 2dyneinMT - end motor protein
    ATPase activity
    Interacts with another accessory protein, Dynactin, which binds to cargo
    Retrograde movement
    ATP hydrolysis causes conformational changes which results in movement
  3. 3which organelles can undergo both enterograde and retrograde motion?endosomes and mitochondria
  4. 4how does actin polymerizemonomeric globular actin (G-actin) turns into filamentous (F-actin) by growing at both + and - ends (although + is faster)
  5. 5profilinencourages actin polymerization
  6. 6cofilinencourages actin depolymerization
  7. 73 structures of actin1. bundles 2. networks 3. support structures
  8. 8actin organization - actin binding proteins found (ie fimbrin)actin organization - actin binding proteins found (ie fimbrin)
  9. 9actin bundles found (fimbrin, alpha actinin etc)microvilli, folopodia, focal adhesions
  10. 10alpha actinin foundalpha actinin found
  11. 11spectrin (actin network protein)spectrin (actin network protein)
  12. 12actin networks foundinner PM, leading edge of migrating cells
  13. 13filamin (actin network) foundfilamin (actin network) found
  14. 14actin support structures foundplasma membrane for actin linking
  15. 15dystrophin (for support structure) founddystrophin (for support structure) found
  16. 16significance of RBC and spectrinRBC has a lot of spectrin, which is found at the cell cortex (outer), allowing for the unique shape - biconcave disk -> spectrin helps pull the PM in
  17. 173 places that actin can accumulate in a structural/epithelial3 places that actin can accumulate in a structural/epithelial
  18. 184 places actin can accumulate in a moving/mesenchymal cell+ stress fibers4 places actin can accumulate in a moving/mesenchymal cell
  19. 19role of actin in mitosisform contractile ring during cytokinesis
  20. 20branched actin formationa mesh/lattice that is accomplished (nucleation and branching)nthrough the help of Arp2/3 complex
    branching is stimulated by adding laterally to an existing actin
    + end grows and Arp2/3 situated at - end
  21. 21fn of branched actinfound at the leading edge of cells to push the membrane forward
  22. 223 classes of myosin1,2, 5
    *myosin always moves toward + end
    has heavy and light chains, ATPase activity and requires Ca2+
  23. 23myosin 2the most abundantmyosin 2
  24. 24myosin 5transport fnmyosin 5
  25. 25myosin 1membrane assoc and endocytosis fn (think macrophages)myosin 1
  26. 26does A band change size during contractionno, include only the myosin II so it doesn't change
  27. 27what happens to z disk during contractionshrinks b/c encompasses entire sarcomere
  28. 28what proteins found in the Z diskcapping protein for the + and - ends of actin to make it stable
  29. 29where is myosin 2 and myosin 1 found during cytokinesis?myosin 2 found in cleavage furrow
    myosin 1 found in edges of each dividing cell
  30. 30what is the basic unit of an IFtetramer
  31. 31tetramersa non polar unit that makes up IF
  32. 32polarity and motor proteins of IFdoes not have either
  33. 33steps in making an IFtetramers -> protofilament -> protofibrils -> IFs
  34. 34distribution of IFsmostly cytoplasmic but lamins are nuclear
  35. 35functions of IFsprovide structural support necessary for cell shape
    (ie keratins and lamins are IF)
  36. 36keratinslink to e-cadherin and stabilize epithelial cells
  37. 37laminssupport nuclear membrane
    network-linked to nuclear lamina
  38. 38distribution and proposed function of keratinsdistribution and proposed function of keratins
  39. 39distribution and proposed function of desmin, GFAP, vimentindesmin = muscle, GFAP = glial, vimentin = mesenchymal (integrity + cell mig)distribution and proposed function of desmin, GFAP, vimentin
  40. 40distribution and proposed function of neurofilaments (NFL, NFM, and NFH)neurons in axon organization
  41. 41distribution and proposed function of laminsnucleus, nuclear structure and organization
  42. 42what induces disassembly of IF and prevents reassemblyphosphorylation of serine residues
  43. 43how are IFs regulatednot regulated by binding+capping proteins like MT and actin... depend on eqm of kinases and phosphatases
  44. 44exchanging segments in IFproteins within the filament are exchanged- segments in an existing IF can be taken out and replaced w new segments
    can remove from the middle
  45. 45disassembly of IFs during mitosisneed to disassemble during mitosis- if you mutate serines you never get disassembly and cells never divide
  46. 46where tubulin binds GTP, actin binds _ and IFs bind _where tubulin binds GTP, actin binds ATP and IFs do not bind anything
  47. 47assembly differences b/w MT, actin, IFsMT = regulated from small number of locations
    actin = regulated from large number of locations
    IFS = assembled into prexisting filaments
