Skeletal Muscle
Neurofilaments
Neurons
DNA condensation (small to large)
Helix => Nucleosome => solenoid => chromosome
What does cyclin do?
regulates cell cycle. interact with cyclin-dependent kinases .
Cyclins bound to ubiquitin tags for destruction by proteosomes
What happens in G1, S, G2
G1 - growth of cell
S - DNA replication
G2 - growth and replication of organelles
Checkpoints of cell cycle (what they check for)
G1
G2
M
G1 - looks for envirnmental signals
G2 - cell big enough? DNA replicated?
M - are chromosomes lined up
Role of p53
actives p21 when DNA is damaged
Types of Excretion
Merocrine - expel vesicles into extracellular space
Apocrine - budding off membrane
Holocrine - membrane slough off
Collagen Synthesis
- rER ==> Golgi (adds lysine for H bonding)
- 3 alpha chaines make procollagen
- exported to cove
- ends cleaved to make tropocollagen
* *lysyl oxidase needed to make fibrils (or else scurvy)
COPI
COPII
COPI = signals proteins to go from Golgi to ER
COPII = signal proteins to go ER to Golgi
Why is Mannose-6-Phosphate important
signals molecules to go to Lysosome
Functions:
cis golgi
medial golgi
trans golgi
Cis - N terminal linked, add sugars
Medial - glycosylation
Trans - Adds sialic acid and sulfation occurs
peroxisome function
beta oxidation of fatty acids
Zonula Occludins are and attach to what
Tight junctions made of occludin and claudin
attach to Actin terminal
1
Zonula Adherens
Adherent Junctions
Made of Cadherins, connect cells
Link to actin filaments
2
Macula Adherens
Desmosome
attach to to IF’s
3
Gap Junctions
Made of Connexins
4
What is laminin
Very important extracellular ligands. (along with fibronectin)
Laminin is a proteoglycan
Desmosine and Isodesmosine
modified AA that binds elastin with CT
Fibrillin
Provides Scaffold for organization of glublar elastin molecules surrounded by fibers of fibrillin
Where are the two enlargments in the spinal Cord?
C5-T1
L1-S3
