Cell biology part 1 Flashcards
Chromosomes as connected by
Cohesin and centromere proteins
Chromosomes have two arms..
shorter p, longer q
Karyogramm
Every chromosome arranged by size
Contraction ring made of .. , helped by
actin filaments, myosin II
Outgrowth of new MT from
y tubulin ring complex
Inhibits formation of MT (protein)
Stathmin
Fragments MT (protein)
Katanin
Binds MT to IF (protein)
Plectin
Binds MT to other structures
TIP
MTOC, with …
Microtubule organization center, centrioles
Funtion of MT
Cilia, mitotic spindle, shape of cell, cargo
Motorproteins associated with MT
Dynein and kinesin
Formation of MT in cilia + other structures
9x2 + 2, nexin, central sheth, dynein
Actin filaments or microfilaments made of
Polymers of actin filaments
Proteins associated with AF
alfa actinin, fimbrin
Inhibits AF polymerisation (protein)
Thymosin
Fractures AF (protein)
Gelsolin
Stabiliazes AF (protein)
Tropomyosin
End of AF (protein)
CapZ
Function of AF
Cell cortex, microvilla, movement of cells, contraction ring, muscle with myosin
Intermediate filaments are…
fibrous proteins, 8 tetramers twisted together
Connecting IF to other structures (protein)
Plectin
Making IF more stable (protein)
Filaggrin
Family of IF (name some)
Different endings:
1) Cytokeratins in epithelia
2) Vimentin (supporting tissue)
3) Neurofilaments (nerve cells)
4) Lamins (nuclear envelope)
