filament, they all play a similar role in providing a structured frame for cells. Mutations in intermediate filaments can cause various diseases, including epidermolysis bullosa simplex, a skin blistering disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), which is also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease....
How are proteins transported out of the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus? What protein primarily makes up the thick filament? a. actin b. myosin c. titin d. troponin Are all proteins made in the cell shipped out? What % of plasma is a p...
(Botany) One of the elongated, thick-walled cells that give strength and support to plant tissue. Fibril (Anatomy) A threadlike fiber or filament, such as a myofibril or neurofibril, that is a constituent of a cell or larger structure. Fiber Any of the filaments constituting the extracellula...
Which motor protein is found in the thick filament of a sarcomere? What two things does it bind to? Sarcomere The sarcomere is the contractile unit of the cell and contains the contractile filaments actin and myosin. Sarcomeres line the entire length of each mu...
Which is the longest filament from the cell body? Microtubulesare the largest type of filament, with a diameter of about 25 nanometers (nm), and they are composed of a protein called tubulin. What are Neurotubules responsible for? Neurotubules are crucial in various cellular processes in neuro...
This episode will explain the physiology of the sarcomere, the microanatomy of muscle fibers, the difference between type two and type one fibers It will explain what an actin filament is and what a myosin filament is Jeremy’s interest in exercise and weightlifting and his scientific training...
In developing nervous systems neuronsfirst sprout immature processes called neurites, of which one matures into an axon. Neurites arise from sites at the neuronal perimeter that are initially marked by protrusion of finger-like filopodia, which are dynamic elaborations of the actin filament network....
modelled the polymerization of G-Actin to form filamentous F-Actin [208]. They showed that the dynamic length of an actin filament depended on the concentration of the free monomers as well as concentration of the existing fibrils along with distinct rate constants of polymerization and ...
the fluidity of the membrane remained unchanged. The results for the hGFs showed an absence of cytotoxicity and no morphological differences in cells subjected to ALAD-aPDT expected for CLSM results that exhibited an increase in the thickening of actin filaments. ROS production was augmented only at...
