show | when g-actin is ATP bound it can bind to the growing actin filament; not very stable over time; ATP eventually hydrolyses to ADP and will depolarise and come off at the negative end of the filament
🗑

||||
show | 25nm in diameter; thirteen columns of tubulin polymer
🗑
|
||||
Assembly and disassembly of the microtubule | show 🗑
|
||||
show | centrosomes; minus end remains close the centrosome and the plus end points outward towards the cell periphery
🗑
|
||||
show | actin filament bundles provide support; dense sheets of actin found in the cortex of cells; maintains the shape of cells e.g. erythrocytes (RBC);
🗑
|
||||
show | Actin filament bundles provide for absorption in the gut byt forming an adhesion belt
🗑
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
show | cell motility; e.g.migration of neutrophils (WBC) to sites of infection for phagocytosis F
🗑
|
||||
show | cell pushes out protrusions at the front (leading edge); actin filament polymerisation provides to force of membrane protrusion
🗑
|
||||
show | protrusions adhere to the surface on which the cell is moving through contact junctions; F-actin connects to the focal adhesions to provide a contractile force for the cell
🗑
|
||||
show | the rest of the cell pulls against the anchorage points to drag itself forward
🗑
|
||||

|
||||
Dynein | show 🗑
|
||||
show | involved in the movement of organelles, e.g. synaptic vesicles along axons to synapses; composed of heavy chain (binds to microtubule) and light chain (binds to what needs to be moved)

🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
show | e.g. myosin II; detaches completely from actin filaments at the end of the cycle; will travel only short distances; constantly bound and un-bound depending on hydrolysis of ATP
🗑
|
||||

Colchicine and vinblastine | show 🗑
|
||||
show | stabilises microtubules; also acts on tubulin
🗑
|
||||
show | rod-shaped cytoplasmic protein, and a vital part of a protein complex that connects the cytoskeleton of a muscle fiber to the surrounding extracellular matrix through the cell membrane; mutations causes Duchenne and Becker Muscular Dystrophy
🗑
|
||||
Myosin VII mutations | show 🗑
|
||||
show | disease of the intermediate filaments; mutations in keratin genes results in failure to form proper keratin filaments in epidermis; skin highly sensitive to mechanical energy; blistering in adults and sloughing of epidermis in newborns

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
