Document Summary

Couple atp hydrolysis to changes in shape & attachment. Undergo cycles of atp hydrolysis, adp release, and acquisition of new atp. Processivity: can move along a cytoskeletal filament for significant distances. Transport of materials from one membrane compartment to another depends on microtubules: vesicles & organelles move along microtubules. Traffic toward the plus end: outbound or anterograde. Microtubule-associated motor proteins: kinesins: anterograde movement, dyneins: retrograde movement(-) Kinesins and cytoplasmic dynein move similar materials in opposite directions, but . Some vesicles and organelles may bind kinesin and dynein simultaneously. Motor proteins move cargoes along mts during axonal transport. Fast axonal transport: transport of proteins produced in the cell body to axon terminal, cytoplasmic dynein: transport toward the minus end (retrograde, toward the cell body, kinesin: transport toward the plus end (anterograde) Classic kinesins move toward the plus ends of microtubules. The globular domains attach to microtubules & are involved in atp hydrolysis.

1)Describe the directions in which the two motor proteins, kinesin and dynein, travel along a microtubule. Which of the two proteins moves materials towards the Golgi and which moves materials away from the Golgi? Lastly, what is the speed of kinesin dependent on?

2)What are microfilaments crucial for? How do they self-assemble? Which end do they prefer to elongate from?

3)Describe what types of filaments are in each of the bands of the sarcomere. As a muscle fiber is shortened, describe what happens to each of the bands in the sarcomere as the Z lines move inwards.

4)Describe the role of calcium ions in muscle contraction.

B.What are the three filaments that compose the cytoskeleton, and what are they composed?

7)How do they see the internal structures of cells in the microscope? What do proteins get labeled with?

8)Myosin II action (Figure 9.61) differs from that of kinesin (Figure 9.15) in that one of the kinesin heads is always in contact with a microtubule, whereas both myosin heads become completely detached from the actin filament. How are these differences correlated with the two types of motor activities in which these proteins engage?

9)If a myofibril were pulled so that the sarcomeres increased in length by approximately 50 percent, what effect would you expect this to have on the contractile ability of the myofibril? Why? What effects would this have on the H, A, and I bands?
